The Cribs raise the temperature at Lollapalooza

Jarmans play for an hour in the high-noon heat

The Cribs performed an hour long set this afternoon at Lollapalooza when they kicked off the second ‘main’ stage at Grant Park.

Opening with ‘Mirrors Kissers’, the band pushed their own limits to make it through thanks to the intense heat and a late night after their sold-out show at Empty Bottle.

Despite the searing afternoon temperatures, the trio managed to get the thousands in the crowd going with tracks from all three albums including ‘Another Number’, ‘Hey Scenesters’ and ‘Men’s Needs’.

Meanwhile, last night’s show at Empty Bottle included a preview of a brand new track ‘Don’t You Wanna Be Relevant’.

“It’s a little known fact, but I used to live in Chicago” Ryan Jarman told the riotous crowd “It’s great to be back”

Their Lollpalooza set list ran:

‘Mirror Kissers’
‘Our Bovine Public’
‘Youre Gonna Lose Us’
‘Girls Like Mystery’
‘I’m A Realist’
‘Moving Pictures’
‘I'm Alright Me’
‘I’ve Tried Everything’
‘Women’s Needs’
‘Martell Miniatures’
‘Men's Needs’
‘Hey Scenesters!’
‘Another Number’
‘Ancient History’
‘Wrong Way To Be’
