Damn... Radio, Rage, Kanye, NIN and Raconteurs would be enough to get me to do a road trip down to Chicago...but I've already got tickets to see Jack Johnson on August 3rd, so I guess I'm missing out! Dang!

Other than Radiohead, none of the big names do anything for me. However, there are some killer smaller bands I'd have a good time checking out. I take it this is only Chicago again, yeah? (dammit)
edit... yeah, only Chicago. I hate that. Really. I get that Perry needs to make money and it's working in Chicago, but I'd love to spend a weekend seeing the festival in Atlanta. Especially since Music Midtown went away.

If you go to this concert and dont see Gogol Bordello you are wasting your money. I can almost gurantee they will put on the best show out of all those bands. Love to see Radiohead and Rage and many more of the others, but i live no where near Chicago

once again, as i say whenever i see them on a bill, if you go and dont see Gogol Bordello you wasted your money. Wish i lived near Chicago, half the bill i would love to see.

On the third day of Bonnaroo, "Fuck Kanye" chants were common before shows, many people were sporting homemade "Fuck Kanye" t-shirts, a row of porta potties sported enormous "Fuck Kanye" graffiti from top to bottom, and a number of artists commented on his ridiculous behavior from the stage. Robert Randolph went so far as to lead a crowd of thousands in a "Kanye Sucks" chant.
