The Lollapalooza 2008 official line-up is supposedly just hours away, so in the meantime, so here are some of the best video performances of Lollapalooza 2007, including LCD Soundsystem, Muse and Regina Spektor. The first set of best videos from Lolla 07 include Pearl Jam and Daft Punk.
LCD Soundsystem is one of the 'rapid risers' in the indie music world offering fans a mix of punk rock styles with electronic beats and keyboards. This clip of their performance performing "All My Friends" at Lollapalooza 2007 helped the band add fuel to their own fire, becoming one of the hottest new bands of 2007. In fact, they were nominated for a number of music awards this year, including a Grammy (the Grammy people know good music?)
Muse performs "Take A Bow" during a live set at Lolla 2007. This video features a lengthy introduction by some Vegas showman in a fettered yellow jumpsuit and a long audio quote, with the words accompanying on screen, by JFK about the threats to our liberties (which are just about all gone now, thanks George!). Altogether, this is one of the best videos from Lollapalooza 2007. Another shout out to tacvbo.
Regina Spektor performs "Après Moi" in this video performance at Lolla 2007. The video is from the official AT&T Blue Tooth live cast, so the quality is excellent.

Lollapalooza 2007 Special Edition: Music Video Performances
Missed out on Lollapalooza? Well, don't sweat it.
IRC has put together a hot compilation of videos from festival goers and mainstream media highlighting the indie rock and pop artists that helped make Lollapalooza 2007 a great success.
Even threats of thunderstorms were not going to allow the feast of music to be interrupted, although there were a few, brief showers, which you can imagine was a nice relief from the searing heat and icky humidity that has made it an unusually warm summer in the midwestern United States.
Don't miss reviews and postings for festivals still yet to take place, such as Austin City Limits Festival, Monolith, Download Festivals, Vegoose and many more.
Check out YouTube videos from Lollapalooza (videos have been approved for quality) and other Lolla links.

Whether you're out on a date with your significant other, smooching on the couch with candles and light jazz on, or without a date and sitting at home alone, you may be interested in The BRIT Awards 2007.
Broadcasting live at Earls Court 1 on Wednesday, February 14, 2007, the show's line-up consists of eight live UK acts and a total of 14 nominees. In 2006, seven of the Top 10 best-selling CDs in the United Kingdom were by British artists.
BPI Chairman Peter Jamieson said, "Music is one of the things that the British do well."
"But even by our standards 2006 was a great year. The BRIT Awards...will celebrate Britain's love of music with a fantastic mix of UK and international artists."
As of today, the final five nominees for single of the year are:
The Feeling - Fill My Little World Razorlight - America Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars Take That - Patience Will Young - All Time Love The big winners are expected to be Snow Patrol (pictured at the left) whose album Eyes Open was the best-selling album in the UK in 2006, selling 1.5 million copies.
Eyes are also on NYC rockers The Scissor Sisters who sold 1.1 million copies of their album Ta-Dah that spawned the mega-hit "I Don't Feel Like Dancin."
The eccentric and flamboyant New York City rockers The Scissor Sisters (pictured at top right) followed their debut success with the 1.1 million copy selling "Ta-Dah" that contains the hit single 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin''.
The Killers, whose album "Sam's Town" has gone quadruple-platinum, and are up for two awards, will perform live at the awards show.
But a lot of rock fans will be thrilled to know that the Red Hot Chilli Peppers will also perform. They are nominated for Best International Rock Band, an award they won in 2003.
