PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE SUNDAY, JULY 31, 1994 C-10 THE REGION Lollapalooza IV: A day of pitching sod and sensory overload Bv Scott Mervis I te. Wasting through this "tent were the wlendE Pos.

Rapid-fire editing, provocative images, At Boys coming from the nearby Sec- oau oiage. abrasive noises and fast bites of informa in tact, the sensory overload i.e., chaos was so complete that tiere were places on the hill where you could hear two different bands playing at the same time. Over there, people were lined up for a virtual reality ride called the Chameleon; oyer here they were inputting their dossiers into a computer-dating service.

Those who were game had their faces and vital facts entered into a Powerbook hooked to a big screen TV, Among the questions that Steve Rogers, of Long Beach, who wrote ittie program, asked were sexual preference, virgin or experienced, favorite Dand at the show and favorite "Scooby Doo" character. Partici- pants then returned later in the day to check their messages or meet their dream date. "We hook up at least one couple a day," Rogers said. i For what it's worth, Lollapalooza had some serious elements. An issue that came up repeatedly on stage and in the Revival Tent was the story of the abortion clinic doctor and assistant who were fatally shot Friday in Pensacola, Fla.

L7 singer Donita Parks mentioned it from the stage in terms we won't quote here. If she's not exactly ready for the McLaughlin Group, she did direct a number of people to the Rock for Choice booth, where petitions were signed and people volunteered to escort at clinics. Still, the most popular booth seemed to be the Cannibus Action Network, mostly because of the popularity of the hemp logo. There, Kim Griess, 22, of Berkeley, talked in general of hope for Generation as the Boredoms screamed through their set like maniacs. If Lollapalooza didn't have them inspired by the time they left the gate, at least they were entertained.

More so than any other year, this fourth installment was interactive for the '90s. In organizer Perry Farrell's universe, staying in your seat and admiring the stars is passe.

In fact, at times when youlooked out at the sellout crowd of 20,131 at the Coca-Cola Star Lake Amphitheater yesterday, you had to wonder, where is everybody? Well, some were back at the Second Stage in the belly of a crazed mosh pit, some were back in the Revival Tent passively listening to performance poets and others were riding the fringes, snopping for bizarro hats or collecting brochures from activist information booths. And, of course, the young crowd with their baggy clothes, backward caps and pierced parts were part of the show. One thing they weren't doing was causing trouble for each other. Lollapalooza was, for the most part, a peaceful uprising. Said an officer from the Hanover Police Department, "We're not having any trouble.

At a show like Steve Miller you get a lot of country folks who just come to fight. These people are generally nonviolent." Except for the sod. While their parents generally went to festivals and smoked grass, these people go to festivals and throw grass. By the time the Breeders went on, the Lollapalooza generation was united in its desire to landscape. Sod was flying like artillery shells onto peoples' heads and into their drinks.

The Breeders' Kim Deal had to warn them that further landscaping would end the show. Hanover Police Sgt.
