Another year, another Bonnaroo excursion. It seems like I’m much less physically prepared this time but definitely mentally there. It’s going to be a wet one this year with expected thunderstorms on all 4 days! I’m hoping to come back like this:
Has anyone noticed how the Bonnaroo line up has been shifting from hippie-esc acts to more indie bands, yet it remains a very eclectic line-up. How often do you get to see Metallica and Tiesto at the same concert?!
The concert is just 3 days from now, and I have not prepared a single thing. I am up to my neck with work and social events that require my attention, yet I retain my cool and just can’t wait to head to Tennessee. So without further ado here is my favorite acts this year (in no particular order):
- Metallica
- Jack Johnson
- Chris Rock
- The Raconteurs
- Death Cab for Cutie
- BB King
- Les Claypool
- M.I.A.
- Iron and Wine
- Sigur Ros
- Gogol Bordello
- Broken Social Scene
- Ozomatli
- !!!
- Ladytron
- Minus the Bear
- Battles
- Vampire Weekend
- MGMT
