The schedule for Bonnaroo was announced today, and this is my tentative schedule. As always, I do not actually believe I will see all the bands highlighted, but certain acts -- Karen Elson, Band of Skulls, Grace Potter, The Decemberists, Florence + the Machine, Alberta Cross, and Iron & Wine -- will not be missed unless I am dead, dying, or pull another stunt like I did last year.
The yellow boxes are conflicts that can't be resolved. I only kinda like Freelance Whales so I don't care about missing them, but I am super bummed about missing DeVotchKa and Loretta Lynn, and just pissed that there is a fifteen minute overlap between two must-see acts, Florence and The Decemberists.
Those grievances aside, it looks like a pretty good festival this year and assuming I get my ticket -- I have no reason to believe it won't be forwarded to me, but I am paranoid -- I have ultimatelyd decided to go. I know Vince would want me to go, and I've got another friend, Tommy, that is relying on me for transportation to the festival. Also, a new friend, Amanda, might camp with us, which would be nice. I've not been to Bonnaroo with more than one other person since my very first festival and having someone else there will make it a little less bittersweet.
