Although the rumoured appearance of democratic hopeful Barack Obama never materialised, last weekend's Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago still lived up to its billing.

Over the course of a hot weekend, the crowds went from being in awe with Radiohead to crushed during day two headliners Rage Against The Machine.

US rapper Kanye West, who was expected to hook up with Mr Obama, also proved his value as the event's final headliner.

You can see action – including Cat Power and The Raconteurs - from Lollapalooza on Gigwise now by clicking the link below.
