This lineup is bonnaroo failing to deliver. I haven't felt this good about choosing sasquatch over 'roo since '08:)
Yeah not the best, but I'm smelling Primus latenight for sure! I would almost pay $200 easy for a 3hr plus Primus show outdoors in the summer time!

... topped only by their would-be headliner spot at sasquatch following DFA1979. I've come to resent Foo a little. Not because I dislike them(they're a childhood fav.), but because soooo many better bands could've had that spot. Like primus...
Yeah, too much work. Coachella was almost too much work for me. That's one of the reasons I like sasquatch so much, you can do as much or as little work as you want to.
The organization at Bonnaroo is impeccable. Easily the best out of any major festival I've been to. Although, their true crowning achievement is the FOOD. Obviously shitty, but very delicious shitty food with a wide variety of vendors. For cheaps too!
So happy Radiohead isn't playing so I don't have to consider dragging my ass to that hot, dusty field.
Pretty much this.
I've envied Roo's lineups pretty much every year (except maybe 2010) but for a festival of it's size and pull, I'd expect something much better. Buffalo Springfield? Yeah it's kinda cool, but wouldn't everyone pretty much rather see Neil Young Solo? I honestly don't give any shits about Eminem. Arcade Fire and Black Keys are everywhere (except, well, you know), and the undercard is super boring.

With that said.. Tickets are still going to sell-out in a couple weeks to a month.. Eminem & Lil Wayne is getting a lot of 1rst timers excited about Roo.. There was even a story about Bonnaroo on CNN.. It's never been so hyped!
