why the hell can\'t there be anything else going on during bruce?! it would probably help with the brutal conflicts before (wilco/the mars volta/of montreal) and after (nin/moe/mgmt).

that\'s pretty ugly. i\'m loving the 2am girl talk though.

So, I guess then there\'s no chance of you taping Bruce?

it\'s not likely. i\'ll be taping TMV, which ends at 8:45. i don\'t see myself being in any kind of hurry to get to bruce, and plus i\'ll probably want to get back for nin at a decent time. i\'m sure there will be plenty of people taping though.

Beasties and Byrne head to head.

Phish 11pm- 2am Friday- hardly a late night set, but fine with me.

I think it is billed at a "late evening" set...and you can just groove on over to Girl Talk afterwards!

Definitely... Worth a shot... I hope that drains the tank on 5/23 and doesn\'t hold back all the surprises for Bonnaroo...

I\'m not going, but wanted to peak at the line up. Thursday looks like **** and Sunday would be the same if Phish wasn\'t playing.

If I was there, I would see the following:

Thursday - nothing
Friday - Galactica, Al Green, Beastie Boys & Phish
Saturday - Gov\'t Mule, Elvis Costello, Bruce & NIN
Sunday - Ted Leo, Merle Haggard & Phish

It just seems to me that they could have avoided all these scheduling conflicts if they scheduled some of the heavy hitters for Thursday and Sunday...

i\'m excited for Janelle Monae on Thursday. she was great opening for of Montreal last month.

Friday has a lot of bands that i\'ve heard of, but never actually heard. i\'ll definitely be doing some sampling in the next month to decide where i\'ll be, but Lucinda Williams, David Byrne, Phish, and Girl Talk are looking good right now.

i feel bad because i missed them at Lollapalooza last year too, but i\'ll probably skip Wilco all together on Saturday because i have tickets to see them in Brooklyn in July. Bon Iver, of Montreal, The Mars Volta, and NiN. i\'ll catch the end of either moe. or MGMT, depending on which is closer, to close out the night.

i don\'t like the Snoop/Coheed conflict on Sunday, but i\'m leaning towards Coheed. will probably catch a bit of Citizen Cope before heading to Erykah Badu, and of course, Phish to close it out.

mars volta would be cool to see

wildcoyote · « **Reply #114 on:** May 13, 2009, 12:27:23 pm »

I\'m on my 2nd listen of the Ben Harper Relentless 7 CD, and it\'s great. What\'s not great is I just saw they\'re on against NIN late night.

based on my 2004 bonnaroo, i know planning a schedule is pretty much a waste of time, but if it had to....

Thursday is traditionally somewhat of a throw away day because everyone is setting up camp and tired from driving.

Friday Al Green, Beasties, Phish, Girl Talk

Saturday Allen Toussaint, Wilco, the Boss, NIN>MGMT

Sunday Ms. Badu, Merle Haggard, Band of Horses, Phish

If i\'m in the right places at the right time, Id also like to catch at least some of Elvis costello, snoop, of montreal, TV on the radio, galactic, and David Byrne.

Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter are the only priority for the comedy tent which i didn\'t make it too last time around.

if you can squeeze in Tobacco, i\'d highly recommend it....

Can we get a Bonnaroll call? I\'m interested in going and am wondering if I can ride with anybody. PM me if interested, thanks!

While we\'re here, it\'s time to say it:

Bonnaroo 2009 is the best lineup of any festival in history. It\'s not even close. Woodstock \'69 is the only festival that can even enter the conversation here.

throughout the day, i\'ve been getting texts of what i\'ve been missing from Manchester, TN.
