Bonnaroo is SUPER corporate and money-driven, way more than any other festival. They flew under the radar the first year because Superfly just pulled it out of thin air. But year 2 was completely ClearChanneled out and now they make every dollar they can.
Why is it that so many people on this board have such a problem with people making money off of music? If you don\'t think it\'s worth what they are asking, don\'t attend! Trust me, there are PLENTY of other people who will attend in your place. Most people are not going to go through the headaches, coordination, and problems encountered putting on a production of this size for their health! I hope they make many millions.
Also, in your mention of the "headliners", you left off the real headliners from all the years you mentioned... WSP... played 2 nights the first year, 1 night the second year, and this year are playing 2 nights again. I don\'t know about you, but I call the band who plays the big stage twice during the festival when everyone else plays once) the headliner. Just wanted to point that out...
