Damn good initial lineup. The question is: is it good enough to put up with rainy, humid, hot, muddy Tennessee for 3 days? By the way, it's June 16-18.

Wow, Radiohead headlining Bonnaroo? Cool!

Much better lineup than Coachella, IMO. Closer, too.

How much are tix?

Think I'm gonna try and make the trip up there.

Have you guys checked out the Bonnarroo CDs? I have the 2004 one, it's a very good CD compilation.

Interesting...

Sasha and Digweed in Tennessee? I hope they name one of their mix CDs that.

2005 was an awesome show with my highlight being Jack Johnson's performance. His set was played with a bass, piano, drums, & Jack on guitar. It gives the show a jazzy vibe I've never heard out of him before. I'd highly reccomend checking it out @ http://www.archive.org/audio/etree-d...m=browseRecent

Decided against it, was tempted, but when I removed radiohead from the mix, there are really only about 4 other bands I'd watch, so not worth the trek out there..

BTW if any one goes, make sure and check out the cat empire, they are a sensational live band, who Keyser Soze turned me onto. Incredible charisma on stage.

I'll hopefully be going to this, it'll be a far trip for me but I want to see over a dozen of these bands, and I should be traveling more.

Radiohead, Beck, Bright Eyes, Death Cab, Ben Folds (please don't play SFS), Clap Your Hands and Say Yeah, Elvis Costello, Bela Fleck, and Amadou & Mariam (can't wait to see them, loving their last cd)

If Wilco and The Mars Volta were there, this just might be the perfect lineup.

Radiohead is my all time favorite band and have only gotten the chance to see them live once (Atlanta 03). They were promoting HTTT at the time, and while I love that cd, I prefer OK - Amnesiac, so I hope they play those songs more than HTTT filler. Also can't wait to hear upcomming stuff from the new album (which the three songs I heard are really great).

OMG Oysterhead's been added!!!

Plus Les Claypool is also doing a separate set!!
