Bonnaroo 2012
Bonnaroo tickets went on sale this Saturday (the second attempt, after hundreds of eager fans crashed the website on February 18th), and while I haven’t purchased mine–yet–I’ve been obsessively stalking the ‘Roo website, photos, and spotify playlist for weeks. Check out the 2012 line up:
Absolutely ecstatic about Bon Iver, The Shins, Foster the People, Dispatch, Grouplove, The Kooks, Phantogram, Flying Lotus, Das Racist, and of course the Beach Boys!!! Word on the street is they’ll probably be throwing in another headliner and several other performers in the weeks to come.
I’m still working on convincing my friends to get on board for the ticket fare (can’t put a price on experience!) and 16 hour road trip to Nashville… But in the meantime, here are some pics from the 2011 festy, how can you say no?
oh, you thought your carnival days were over?

the only way to road trip. anyone got one of these babies to lend me?

Bonnaroo hosts various other activities and performances each year, like the above break dancing act and their annual comedy series (to be announced). Can't argue with those abs now can ya?

Wouldn't be a festival without body paint and glitter

The Flavor Savers. You know it'll be a good show when the band comes out dressed like that.
Who’s ready to go!? I’ll leave you with some of my favorites from the line up. Just sit back, close your eyes, and imagine that warm Tennessee sun…
See you there!!!!
