Music festival Lollapalooza finished its fifth year in Chicago’s Grant Park Sunday night, after three days of rock concerts in rain and high temperatures. But the weather didn’t deter the more than 75,000 festival-goers who showed up for the diverse lineup, which included Depeche Mode, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Vampire Weekend, Snoop Dogg, Kings of Leon, and more than 120 other acts.

Attendees twittered from the festival as it came to a close with performances from The Killers and Jane’s Addiction:

Many others in the Twitterverse tweeted their regret over missing the weekend’s shows:
