The juggernaut keeps rolling on as Lollapalooza just announced that single-day tickets for both Friday and Saturday are now sold out. Sunday tickets are still available, and that day features headliners that include Jack White, Florence + The Machine, At The Drive-In and Justice. So why hasn't Sunday sold out yet? It can't be Jack White's fault, he has a top selling album! And all the kids are stoked about the At The Drive-In reunion since 99.7% of the audience attending Lolla never got a chance to see them the first time around. And while Justice is no Daft Punk, they'll do in a pinch (and we kind of really liked their last album). So why hasn't Sunday sold out? It has to be Florence and her Machine! C'mon kids, she's not that bad, and you can always head to another part of the park and catch another band during her set. So, if you were planning on going, you should probably snag those tickets while you still can.

And if you're in the same wage bracket as the Monopoly Guy with the monocle and were counting on your own high end three-day VIP passes, you're out of luck. Those are sold out too.

Lollapalooza is August 3-5 in Grant Park.
