Bonnaroo Lineup Announced

The Lineup for Bonnaroo 2008 has been released. There are definitely some great bands performing, but I can’t say its enough to justif the ticket for me this year. There are going to be some great shows such as Pearl Jam & Metallica. Truth be told I’m not a fan of either, but I’d love to see both of them perform. Still, I’m not sure its worth both the hassle and the $210 bucks it takes. If it is for you, tickets go on sale Saturday, February 16.

Would be great to see:

Black Kids (my prediction for best band of 2008.)
M.I.A.

Cory, you’re crazy….The Sword is the most exciting band live on the list. Also, Two Gallants and Broken Social Scene? Two great bands.
