Bonnaroo 2008 whos goin?

[not_the_kitty]

I guess summer camp was too hyped up for me because so many people told me how good it was then I went the first year they went crazy with cops. More than one person I know was arrested and there were far too many drunk people. Granted the music was insane I'll probably go to other festivals next summer.

What first attracted me to Bonnaroo was the fact that you could pay (ususually) no more than $200 to see some of the top notch acts in the world. Artists from all over the world come to play in Manchester. We got Ziggy Marley from Jamaica, we got Gogol Bordello from Germany(i think, lol), we got Radiohead from England, we got Manu Chao from South America.

It's a great way to expand your musical sense for sure.

When it comes down to it, it's all about the music. That's why we call it a "Music Festival". Everything else should be second hand.


Just my humble opinion..

[hreskofreight4]

one of my best friends went last year and said it was amazing so we are like 95% we are gonna go this year

[yokinazu]

bonnaroo was cool first couple years. but i always have to wait to see the line up. the bands are what makes me go to any festival. the exeption is hookahville. but bein in LA now thats probably outa the question.

[suhl]

what is the lineup this year anyway are there even any rumors yet seems a little early

[TOOL9]

I have heard that pearl jam is unofficially confirmed, and i also heard that robert plant might be coming this year.

[Ghengis Chron]

I wouldn't be surprised to see Robert Plant, if he's playing, I'll be there, count on it. John Paul Jones was there in 2007 so Robert Plant is not out of the question. Not to mention he'll be touring with Allison Krauss this spring, so don't be surprised to see them both...

As for Pearl Jam, I would love to see them, but I had heard they're going to be in Europe.

Who I'm wishing will play:

Some kind of hip-hop, Common, Kanye, something along those lines...
I want to see a good amount of underground hip hop - Similar to Atmosphere or Aesop Rock
I want to see Neil Young or CSNY...
And I want to see WSP again or some other good 'jammy' type band

i cant wait. 07 was intense as any lineup this side of glastonbury.

[ghosty]

nah, id rather wait and go to the 10,000 lakes fest in my homestate... i havent been in years and im definately gonna try to get to the one this year, always a good time
