A swarm of awesomely great musicians are, once again, ready to descend on the the sunny plains of Manchester, Tennessee for a four day musical marathon, at the now traditional Bonnaroo Festival. This year names like: Pearl Jam, Metallica, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, Kanye West and Jack Johnson (you again?) lead the ginormous list of artists, that are each set to play on stages of the festival. To be more precise, over 100 performers are set to play on 13 stages, as well as a comedy tent headlined by David Cross and Janeane Garofal, all between 12-15 June. Oh and remember the [tag]Led Zeppelin[/tag] touring rumors? Well the band apparently isn’t on the list, but the next best thing is, namely Lez Zeppelin, a all-girl Zep tribute band, that’s managed to confuse a lot of people, especially bloggers. By the looks of it the festival is gonna be sweet, hopefully we’ll gonna cover it live from there. Full lineup after the jump.
