Bonnaroo Looks Pretty Damn Awesome

Here is the rather awesome video that was made to announce the initial lineup for Bonnaroo. According to the press release this will be Springsteen and Phish's only American Festival appearances this summer which would mean no Rothbury or Outside Lands for the Phish, which had been rumored, although at this point what hasn't been rumored. Also included in the press release is that Phish will be playing two shows, your standard two set headlining show and a special late night set. Consider me excited. Tickets go on sale this Saturday over at www.bonnaroo.com. Here is the full initial artist announcement. In total there will be 120 bands and 20 comedians, which leaves us with about 45 open music spots. I'm hoping for some Chromeo, Dr Dog, My Morning Jacket,The Duo and Umphrey's. Who or what would you like to see added to this already pretty awesome lineup?
