I attended last year and had a blast! I ordered my 4 day passes today. The only thing that would keep me away would be the Pearl Jam tour, of course!

See you there!
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    i was in lawrence today and toured the wakarusa site. it seems impossible that the area i viewed today will be rockin' in june.

    additional artists added since i ordered my tickets...

    government mule
    les claypool

    and the music never stops.

    anyone living near lawrence, kansas (home of the ku jayhawks) should check it out. honest to god, trooth!

    Looks like a cool venue. It's funny a friend of mine lives on Wakarusa Lane, but she lives in San Diego. Wish I was closer, I'd definitely go. :)

    if you want to get within 100 yards of the mainstream bands, go to bonaroo for $200 a ticket. good luck in the mud.

    if you want to be able to move around and swim in the lake and be within walking distance of all performances..

    It's WAKARUSA!!

    Daily capacity limited to 15,000!!

    Nice lineup, but not as good as Langerado Festival.

    Several of the same bands, though. Just add Wilco, Ben Harper, Flaming Lips, and Black Crowes. AWESOME!

    Just a couple of days away. and only 3 weeks until St Paul. This summer is kickin off!!!

    The bummer is that Govt Mule and Flaming Lips are playing at the same time.

    that's the drawback with festivals. all those bands but can's see them all.
