Bonnaroo - anyone going?

Red Lukin

Any jammers going to Roo? It's in 10 days!

Driving from Toronto here...

Tek Money

Yep. Driving in a couple days early and staying in Nashville. From London, Ontario here. I can't wait!

If either of you have room, and this guy can get to your respective towns from Ottawa, you should consider giving him a ride: http://forums.pearljam.com/showthread.php?t=245492&highlight=bonnaroo


BTW, I am going, and I am fucking stoked. I haven't had any sort of real vacation since last September and I'm burned out with work, so this will be more of a welcome respite.

Tek, good to other jammers are going. Who are you looking forward to seeing?

Off the top of my head I plan on seeing Sam Roberts, KOL, Harper, Tool, Police, White Stripes, Bob Weir, in between the Mule and Flips set, and a bunch of others.

I have made a schedule!

Sam Roberts, Tortoise, David Cross, The Decemberists, The White Stripes, Wilco, The Flaming Lips, The Police, Ween, Damien Rice, The National, Old Crow Medicine Show, Annuals, Franz Ferdinand, Wolfmother, John Butler Trio, The Hold Steady.

I just found out that one of my good friends is dropping out. I am pretty upset because I have not seen him since Pearl Jam in Jersey last year.

Alright, why not...here's my schedule. Some do play at the same time, so I'm either undecided or might see the end of an act:

Black Angels
Sam Roberts
Tea Leaf Green
Cold War Kids
Brazilian Girls
Kings of Leon - maybe the end of Michael Franti & Spearhead
Black Keys (or the Roots)
Tool
Super Jam!!!
Old Crow medicine Show
Gogol Bordello
Either The Hold Steady, Damien Rice, or (if I want a good spot for Ben harper) Ziggy Marley
Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals
The Police
Gov't Mule (maybe Flips, and some of Sasha)
Pete Yorn
Bob Weir & Ratdog
The White Stripes
Widespread Panic

I may not be able to see all, but I'm gonna do my best ; )

Do the Country Music Hall of Fame Museum downtown near Tootsies Orchid Lounge, well worth it for any music fan.

Just Announced: SuperJam feat. John Paul Jones, Ben Harper and Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson
Bonnaroo continues an annual tradition with an all-star SuperJam, starting at midnight on Friday, June 15. Former Led Zeppelin bass player JOHN PAUL JONES will anchor a trio featuring one of music's most innovative modern bluesmen, guitar wizard BEN HARPER, and Roots drummer AHMIR "?UESTLOVE" THOMPSON. The SuperJam is one of the most highly anticipated features of the festival, combining the talents of a diverse set of musicians for a one-time-only collaborative performance. Past participants have included Stewart Copeland, Herbie Hancock, Dr. John, Trey Anastasio, and many other musicians of the highest caliber - and if history is any indication, expect special guests to join the fun.

Since the break-up of Led Zeppelin in 1980, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jones has worked with bands including R.E.M. and the Foo Fighters. Harper's last album, "Both Sides of the Gun," debuted at Number Seven on the Billboard charts; Rolling Stone has called him a "natural-born superstar." In addition to his role as the heartbeat of hip-hop trailblazers the Roots, Thompson has played with and produced such artists as D'Angelo and Fiona Apple; at Bonnaroo, he will also be performing with his jazz-oriented group, The Philadelphia Experiment.
