Organisers of the 80,000-capacity Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival, to be held on a 700-acre farm in Manchester (that's in Tennessee, sorry) from June 16th to the 18th, have announced a fantastic line up.
Radiohead will headline the event, their only confirmed US festival show of the year. Just below them on the bill are Bright Eyes, Cat Power, Death Cab For Cutie, Beck, Andrew Bird, Dresden Dolls, Elvis Costello, My Morning Jacket and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have also been approached as a headliner, and further announcements will follow - check the festival website for updates.
Should you wanna buy tickets (perhaps you're an American reading a British site? If so, howdy. Wanna put us up for a weekend in June?), they go on sale via the above website on February 11th at 10am Eastern Time. So, about five hours behind British time. Ish. I'm no good with maths...
those americans,
and their skateboards.
I have never
before now wished I lived in america. What a lovely line up.
After spending a weekend at this
you'd be literally begging to hear a slayer song. Its pleasant, but really quite dull. Just like death cab.
Dull?! DULL?!
Get out
Bonnaroo 2008
Well, this year isn't dull.
The Raconteurs were phenominal last night though, as was M.I.A.
Waaaaay too many hippies and frat boys though (ahhhh America). And it's raining.
