A lineup for this year's festival leaked last Friday. Two of the biggest names rumored to be there are The Eagles and Van Halen. I might want to check that out. I've always been interested in going to Bonnaroo. Anybody ever been before?

In the middle of nowhere. Cow fields and good ol' boys out that way. Bonnaroo is a blast. I've been a couple times. 8)

That's what I'm hearing now too. I did think that some of that lineup was strange for Bonnaroo.

The only time I'd ever heard of Bonnaroo was just several months ago, with a rumor that Led Zeppelin would be headlining...

Uhh..no. It's less than an hour from Nashville...and about 25 minutes from Murfreesboro (a town of about 100,000). Hardly BFE- it's actually a neat little area.

FYI- I think the lineup is bogus, too. But if you go, be prepared to sit in line on the interstate for HOURS when you first come in. It gets ridiculously congested through there.
