    Radiohead
    Beck
    Tom Petty and the HeartBreakers
    Ben Folds
    Atmosphere
    Death Cab for Cutie

    There is over 80 total artists and runs june 16-18

    I would spend a lot more than 200 to see Thom Yorke.

    Seriously.

    It's sad.

    This and Coachella, and SXSW & ACL, Wall of Sound Festival and Cornerstone Festival...I swear, I blow all my money so easily on these damn amazing music festivals.

    I really really really really thought about going this year - after all, I live in the freaking city that Bonnaroo is being held. But I just can't see myself paying that much money when I really only want to see like 6 or 7 acts. Plus I can't see myself having to deal with 70,000 or so people. Hopefully, Radiohead will come to Nashville by themselves and I can catch them like I did with Sigur Ros.

    If I lived there I would be there. It is an incredible line up. I might go to Coachella, but it is so damned hot out there. The price is a lot, but I haven't been to a music festival in a long time.

    Bonnaroo has some of the acts I like that will never be at a festival like Coachella. I can't imagine going to Bonaroo and getting to see Radiohead, Steve Earl, Elvis Costello, Deathcab for Cutie, Son Volt, Bright Eyes, and Cat Power.

    I like those bands a lot. I would also like to check out Ricky Skaggs, and Stephen Malmus who I've been neglecting since he's gone solo. That would be a good chance for me to see him.

    But in addition to the tickets I would have to travel, and I just don't have the money right now.

    I'm saving as much as possible for a big SE Asia trip for next year, and as much as I would enjoy seeing all those bands, I just can't do it.
