Big names line up for Bonnaroo
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 3 February 2009
The initial line-up for this year’s Bonnaroo has been announced, with a pretty impressive collection of headliners. Topping the bill at this year’s event will be Bruce Springsteen, Beastie Boys, Nine Inch Nails, David Byrne, Al Green, Snoop Dogg, Elvis Costello and Phish.
It will be Springsteen’s only North American festival this year and the newly reunited Phish’s only festival, so they’re making the most of it by playing two sets at Bonnaroo.
Also on the bill are The Mars Volta, MGMT, Animal Collective, Santogold, The Ting Tings, TV On The Radio, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bon Iver, Crystal Castles, Of Montreal, Jenny Lewis, Wilco, Paul Oakenfold, Neko Case, The Decemberists, Erykah Badu, Andrew Bird and more.
Bonnaroo takes place in Tennessee between 11-14 Jun. Tickets go on sale on Saturday, with organisers for the first time allowing fans to pay for their tickets in five instalments of $50.
