Bonnaroo: Outdoes itself In Line-Up & Video!

Ah, the fest that keeps stealing from the jam band circuit and giving to the indie kids released its line-up last night at midnight via a really cool announcement video. Springsteen slides from the Super Bowl half-time show to the headlining act, which I think is a great move. A couple of years ago my friends and I went to see the Boss in Pittsburgh and it was a terrible show. Not that the band had anything to do with it. I learned a valuable lesson that day, when you pay $50+ dollars to see a classic rock act you're going to be around a bunch of old cunts who don't want to get wild or have any fun at all. I have a feeling this is the setting I'd like to see Springsteen in. Anyway, let me not take away from the rest of the line-up, because it's pretty outstanding. How do I not go to this? Will my hippie friends treat me like a n00b because I started going to Bonaroo in 09? Many more questions coming my way - a video and line-up listing if you don't feel like watching coming yours.
