Summer is a time for carefree, youthful love, and a gathering like the recent Lollapalooza is fertile ground for blossoming romance. But, alas, amorous connections can be fleeting, which is why there's Craigslist's Missed Connections section. One enterprising, lovelorn spirit took to the online classifieds to pine for his Juliet, in an especially, um, passionate plea to rekindle the magic experienced during electronic artist deadmau5's headlining set. The ensuing post is...well, it certainly lays it all out there, doesn't it? This reads like something out of an especially tawdry Brian DePalma script. Best of luck to our fingerbanging Romeo.
