Bonnaroo 2013

[shoegazer76]

You guys really like Billy Idol?

Billy still has it. Well I just purchased an RV pass on ebay so I'm in.

[Bons222000]

It's good, I'm def thinking of going. It doesn't seem amazingly deep for my tastes but enough to keep me busy. Wondering if Bjork and Paul will have la dates.

[HeavensWeep]

Looks like a lineup that everyone could enjoy. Nuttin wrong wit dat.

How is Pretty Lights so high on all these festival posters? I must have missed something.

[girmaff420]

Don't they usually have a DJ or two?

I believe you will find, if you spend 30 seconds with the lineup, that they do, in fact, have "a DJ or two."

I only know that one song with that awesome video.

Cool, we'll have to see if we can get the Coachella board members together for a shot ... cr****

[StarsAreBurning]

Billy still has it.

saw him last year at the big fresno fair for free, steve stevens is great, but i doubt if this is really a draw for anyone.

[heart cooks brain]

this lineup is fucking retarded good.

[Boourns]

Prepare for terrible scheduling. Year in, year out, they fuck up decent lineups by scheduling everything good at once and leaving huge gaps of downtime.

Oh, that's just the festival norm nowadays. And don't forget there's one day with more can't-miss acts than can possibly be seen and one with few or none.

This lineup is very good. I would love to be able to swing this as well as Primavera and Coachella, but those take priority. I hope this means more David Byrne & St Vincent dates because I missed that last year.

[Neighborhood Creep]

That Soul Superjam is going to be awesome

[canexplain]

lalalalala I am loving my own sig now more than ever today cr****

pretty lights is really big with the bonnaroo crowd.

[Krellish]

you really think they deserved that?....

In what alternate universe do you live in that album sales numbers are at all representative of quality of musicianship?

Justin Bieber must be amazing there.

[luckyface]

ha that's silly. The lineup so far isn't bad at all. Wilco, Bjork, Jim James, Cat Power, David Byrne and St. Vincent are all solid.

Bjork wasn't announced when I posted that comment. But the rest of the names you listed do nothing for me.

[Krellish]

Yeah, guys, why compare two things that are in the same category of thing and cost a similar amount of money and appeals to a similar demographic in the grand scheme of things, even if they skew slightly to one niche or another? Don't you realize all things are connected and made of atoms and we're all just stardust and everything that's happened is still happening and all of history is a single dot extending forever and ever?

This was amazing.

[girmaff420]

I'll stick my neck out there for abuse: for what it's worth, and this is coming from someone who thinks their studio albums are pretty mediocre, Mumford are good live. They're good musicians--never any issues staying together, they don't get out of tune which is impressive for a group that relies on multi-part vocal harmony so much, they play a really energetic, entertaining live show, you never feel like they're phoning it in (unlike many bands people cannonize--anyone catch Ariel Pink's meltdown at Coachella?)...I don't think they've brought anything special to the music table, but they have mass appeal and can actually hold their own on stage, so I'm not surprised at all to see them getting headlining status slots. Doesn't mean they deserve it over other bands, but they won't crash and burn up there.

better poster

[gart888]

Lineup so goddamn stronk.

[brando4n82]

Since they Wrangled paul into the states, does anyone think he might do some one off shows in LA or NY? i really fucking hope so

[luckyface]

It is absurd how badly Bonnaroo beat the piss out of Coachella this year in terms of the top line acts.

As always, a littering of some nice bands in the undercard, but there is just never enough of the intriguing and unique acts that would actually draw me to the humid hellhole that is Tennessee in the summer.

[nathanfairchild]

maybe OSL?

[brando4n82]

maybe OSL?

Ohh, I like the sound of this!

[paulb]

Nothing on the lineup is making me scream FUCK i must attend this, like Coachella did with getting Violent Femmes, Eric Prydz, Blur. Tons of solid names on this lineup though that the indecision is making me rip my hair out.

[suprefan]

Where is the poster? I'd like to see a day by day breakdown. I'm not going...

What day by day breakdown. Its a list and thats it

[zircona1]

That is a really good lineup. Something for everyone.

Paul spends lots of time in the US with the wife. I think he only goes to UK when it's his time with his young daughter.

[Bumblebee]

Whats the over/under on a sell out? Less than a week?

[Tikiman]

What is it about Paul McCartney has people so excited? He can hardly hit any high notes, nobody really likes any of his new stuff, and his set is predictable. If I hear Live and Let Die one more time I'll puke asparagus spears. Is it because he's a bucket list item?
