Bonnaroo - Day 1
Posted Thurday June 11 at 6:42p by Pat
Well
we're here on the bus to Bonnaroo (yeah they got flippin WiFi on this
thing!) and figured I would go ahead and put up our first post. We're
totally stoked about this year's Bonnaroo and glad we can bring
everyone along for the ride. Last year was really memorable...My
Morning Jacket in the rain on Friday night...Jack Johnson and Pearl Jam
on Saturday night....waiting up until all hours of the morning to see
Kanye West...hating on Kanye all day Sunday... Death Cab's sunset
Sunday set....plus all the rad experiences and people we met. Hopefully
this year's Roo will meet or exceed all that.
I am personally
most excited to see Ben Harper with his new band The Relentless 7, The
Beasties (never seen 'em live!), MGMT, Passion Pit, and Cage the
Elephant. It will also be really special to see some of the more
established acts like The Boss, Elvis Costello, Al Green, and Booker T.
Bonnaroo has become so diverse that there really is something for
everyone.
In that spirit, last night I put together a little
Bonnaroo '09 mix with a mix of the old, some of the new, and some you
may not even have heard yet. If you're headed to Bonnaroo, check it out
and whet the appetite. If you're not going, then still download it and
see what you're missing.
