Don't call Perry Farrell commitment-phobic. The Jane's Addiction frontman/Lollapalooza owner has confirmed that Lollapalooza will continue in Chicago for the next 10 years. The festival has a contract with the city that lasts that long, and Farrell intends to fulfill it, assuming that "we make it through Armageddon." The festival that began as a Jane's Addiction farewell tour and evolved into a cultural phenomenon has now become a yearly Chicago tradition. [LP33 via Digg]
