I'd guess the overwhelming majority of Lollapalooza type artists agree.
And who cares when his last hit was? That's a bizarre consideration towards the legacy of a non mainstream style artists. Or better put, someone that wasn't a pop artist.
It also doesn't matter who books Lollapalooza, although he certainly still has input.
Perry sucking now does nothing to change the fact that he opened the door for a musical revolution that still bears fruit.
