The Editor for Spin magazine liked the Toadies set at Lollapalooza
from his blog at spin.com:
Back-to-back sets by ’90s stalwarts the Toadies and Rage Against the Machine capped my evening. Dallas’ Toadies, who recently reunited for a new album due in a couple of weeks, were essentially one-hit wonders (but what a hit) who became a classic cult act. In fact, frontman Todd Lewis alluded to this in his introduction to the band’s only hit, the grungy stalker anthem “Possum Kingdom”(you know, the “Give it up to me / Do you want to be my angel?” song). From what I could see from my vantage point on the side of the stage, Lewis seemed genuinely touched to see such an enormous turnout. Mixing favorites from their two albums with some new songs, like the rifftastic (or is that rifferrific?) “Man of Stone,” they played with a renewed vigor that hinted they probably wouldn’t be going away anytime soon.
