Bonnaroo 2010. I'd never heard of it.
June 10-13.
Machester, TN.
Tix+fees are about $280, not counting travel or accommodations.
"But wait", you say, "Brad, you are a cheapskate. You hem and haw about paying $30 for a show when you could see j random punkband for $5. Why would you even consider dropping $500ish to go to a show?"
The answer is ZOMGLINEUP!!
TMBG, Tenacious D, GWAR, The Flaming Lips performing Dark Side of the Moon, Steve Martin (playing banjo, I assume), Regina Spektor, Dave Matthews (yes, I want to see them. shut up.), Les Claypool, Michael Franti... I think I'm going to start hyperventilating if I go on. Suffice it to say, that's just a small selection of the musical acts, plus film and comedy still TBA. (edit I just heard that Tori Amos has been added to the lineup, too)
After my last big project at work I promised myself I'd spend some of my vacation time on something epic, and this could be it. If there are enough New England people who might be crazy enough to do this with me, we could save on travel costs and increase fun by turning this into the road trip of doom. If you think you might be up for this, please respond with your level of interest and we can look at options for coordinating.
For those not in the area, lemme know if you think you might be there and we can coordinate meeting up.
