Tennessee's Bonnaroo Festival is obviously a big deal, and its organizers are probably better at scoring the biggest names than any other festival organizers in these United States. Last year, for instance, they landed Metallica and Kanye West and Pearl Jam among the usual hordes of jam-bands and indie types. But this year they've outdone themselves. They got Bruce! With the whole E Street Band and everything! Bruce Springsteen does not need to play festivals, and yet here he is. (This is his only North American festival appearance this year, says a press release.) And the reunited Phish! For two sets! Whatever your feelings on those dudes, that is an extremely big get right there. Also the Beastie Boys! And Nine Inch Nails! And Erykah Badu! And Animal Collective! And David Byrne, Wilco, TV on the Radio, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Al Green, Snoop Dogg, Elvis Costello, Bon Iver, Jenny Lewis, Okkervil River, Santogold, Neko Case, Grizzly Bear, the Decemberists, Yeasayer, Band of Horses, MGMT, and Andrew Bird! This thing is going to be nuts. (No My Morning Jacket though?) The festival goes down June 11-14 at its usual Manchester, Tennessee location.
