    I'm not going to Bonnaroo, but I've been before and feel like playing. For people planning on going to the comedy shows, take warning that there are often HUGE lines that start early and it gets to be a tough decision between waiting on line and going to check out music.

    If I WERE going, I would do something like this:

    Thursday:
    Get there around noon. Set up camp and eat some lunch.
    Go explore and maybe hang out in the Brooers Festival Beer Tent.
    Maybe go hit a few balls in teh batting cage.
    Go back to my tent for dinner.
    Go see THE FELICE BROTHERS around 1015.
    Pass out and get ready for a LONG weekend.

    Friday:
    Wake up at 7 am as my tent turns into a Tennessee Oven
    Hang out and drink beers for the morning/afternoon
    Go check out TEGIN AND SARAH in this tent.
    Stick around that stage and watch half of SWELL SEASON
    Walk over the main stage and see the end of RACOUNTERS
    Walk back to my tent for dinner and relax a bit.
    Head back over to the main stage for CHRIS ROCK and METALLICA
    Try to stay awake.
    Go see a few MY MORNING JACKET SONGS and check out who's playing the SUPERJAM before going back to my tent to fall asleep with earplugs in.

    Saturday:
    Repeat waking up at 7am due to overbearing heat
    Check otu the WOOD BROTHERS set
    Maybe go back to the BROOERS tent.
    Go see GOGOL BORDELLO
    Go to main stage and see BB KING
    Go back to tent for rest and dinner.
    PEARL JAM!!!!!!!!
    Maybe watch a PHIL song or two but most likely go pass out.

    Sunday:
    If i have a good spot, I'd probably leave early. If I'm trapped, I go into Centeroo for some iced coffee.
    See JAKOB DYLAN
    Hang around a bit and see random bands.
    Go see ROBERT PLANT AND KRAUSS
    Again try to go home.

    Anyone heard of or planning to go see Newton Faulkner early on the Thursday? You should do if your either a guitarist or into your rootsy, acoustic stuff and want to see an entertaining show, he's quite funny. He does a hilarious impression of Kings Of Leon and he's got some great songs, he also covers Massive Attack's Tear Drop and has been doing an awesome version of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, hard to believe one man doing that song. Miss this guy at your peril!!

    He's also a PJ fan
    My PJ shows:
    London 28/10/96, Las Vegas 11/7/98, London 29/5/00, Nurnburg 11/6/00, Prague 14/6/00, Salzburg 18/6/00, Verona 20/6/00, Milan 22/6/00, Zurich 23/6/00, New York 8-9/7/03, Boston 11/7/03, Reading Festival 27/8/06, Shepards Bush 11/8/09, Berlin 15/8/09, Manchester 17/8/09, London 18/8/09, Dublin 22/6/10, Belfast 23/6/10, London (HRC) 25/6/10, Alpine Valley (PJ20) 3-4/9/11, Manchester 20-21/6/12, Leeds 8/7/14, Milton Keynes 11/7/14 To be continued....

    Well I plan on heading over to your Friday morning party. So I guess we will hanging out Friday and Saturday. So I hope you don't suck. PS - If you need me to bring anything to your campsite on Friday, let me know.

    Thursday: No must-sees for me, but a few maybes
    Back Door Slam, MGMT, Lez Zeppelin

    Friday: Big Day
    Drive-by Truckers, Umphrey's, Raconteurs, Willie, Chris Rock, 'Tallica, MMJ (probably will be resting after DBT to prepare for a long night though)

    Saturday:
    Mastodon, BB, Jack, PJ (Really want to see Levon but I believe it would behoove me not to stray too far from What Stage)

    Sunday:
    Jakob Dylan or Robert Randolph, Plant/Krauss (partial), Pat Green

    I'm sure I probably won't make all of those and I hope to be able to check out some of the lesser known (at least to me) bands. I've been going one by one listening to a few tracks from each and putting checks by those who sound like they might be worth checking out like State Radio and Two Gallants
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Does anybody think that it would be too ambitious to do Les (4:15-4:55) > Raconteurs (5:00- 5:35) > State Radio (5:45-7:15)? Priority #1 between these three is State Radio. Would I be better off to just forget about the Raconteurs and secure a good spot for SR?
