I’m headed to Manchester, TN next week to catch the Bonnaroo Festival and can’t wait!
As is too often the case at a music festival, some of the bands I want to hear will be on stage at the same time … Michael Franti & Spearhead or Hot Chip? The Roots, Lily Allen or The Black Keys? The Wild Magnolias or The Slip? Fountains of Wayne, The Hold Steady or Xavier Rudd?
All of these choices I can handle, but I want to know, who decided to have Ben Harper, Franz Ferdinand, Ween and Spoon all play at the same time on Saturday night?! I’ll have to make some tough decisions, flip a coin or just avoid the crowds.
To get in the mood, I’ll post MP3 downloads and streams of some of the Bonnaroo artists I plan on seeing. Stay tuned for updates and enjoy!
