Bonnaroo Proves To Be Crazy, Dirty Time

I, Happy Hour's own megasuperstar, Jon Wonderboy, attended Bonnaroo this year in Manchester, TN for what weighed in as one of the dirtiest [actual dirt] and most fun times I've had at a music festival.

Yes, I was one of the people who refused to pay the $7 to take a shower so as to just get filthy again within an hour in what I dubbed as the Dust Bowl of 2011. No shame at Bonnaroo, I'd say.

But even more important, the music was awesome. Here's a list of what I saw:

  • Greensky Bluegrass
  • Sleigh Bells
  • Deerhunter
  • Béla Fleck & The Flecktones (original lineup)
  • The Decemberists
  • Florence + The Machine
  • Primus
  • Arcade Fire
  • Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears
  • Old Crow Medicine Show
  • Alison Krauss & Union Station f/ Jerry Douglas
  • Mumford & Sons
  • Buffalo Springfield
  • Gogol Bordello
  • G. Love & Special Sauce
  • Neon Trees
  • Iron & Wine
  • Beirut 
Did you make it out to Bonnaroo this year? What was your favorite show?
