I could swear they announced like a month ago that The Police, Pearl Jam, and Bob Dylan were headlining, but I don't even see Pearl Jam and Dylan on that list...so who knows.

[Hammerhead]

That concert looks freaking awesome.

Lineup looks pretty good to me. They sure have made Bonnaroo a broader festival. String Cheese is disbanding in August so I'm sure this will be a pretty huge show for them. I'd love to go to this, but I might be heading out to Los Angeles after graduation so probably won't be able to.

If you guys are at all thinking about going, I would buy tickets as soon as you can, and then if you can't go, sell them off later.

 

I tell you this because people on the Coachella boards (including longtime festival vets who should know better), they putzed around, put off buying tickets, and then the whole festival sold out this Tuesday, I think, some 80 days before the festival. 3 day passes that I got for $212 a pop have been selling at around $700 on EBay. It's insane.

 

I'm pretty sure this will sell out quick, too, and a lot of people who got left out of Coachella might be extra anxious to get their Bonaroo tickets ASAP.

 

So...just a word of warning.
