Fans have 130 bands over eight stages to choose from during three-day festival set for the first weekend of August in Chicago's Grant Park.

Lollapalooza unveiled its schedule today, and as with many of the major music festivals, it's rife with tough decision for fans.

With nearly 130 bands packed on eight stages over three days in Chicago's Grant Park Aug. 3-5, there are plenty of decisions to be made.

Daft Punk Daft Punk

Will it be Daft Punk, the crowd favorite at last year's Coachella, or Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals, who always put on a great live show?

And there are plenty of other conflicts that need sorting out: Amy Winehouse or Lupe Fiasco? The Hold Steady or Regina Spektor? Satellite Party or the Black Keys? Rhymefest or Cold War Kids?

Luckily, Lollapalooza has created a "create your own schedule" tool on its Web site to help sort it all out.

Tickets to Lollapalooza are still on sale, with three-day passes selling for $195 and single-day tickets for $80 each. Click here for ticket info, and here for the full Lollapalooza schedule.
