With the lineup for Bonnaroo 2009 having just been announced, you can satisfy a bit of your anticipation for the annual summer music and arts festival by experiencing the excitement of last year’s event in the comfort of your own home. The diversity of activities and attractions offered at Bonnaroo is remarkable; from comedy to art installations, there’s always something to see.
But music will always be the heart of Bonnaroo, and the performances captured here continue to reflect the variety the fest offers. The Raconteurs’ “Old Enough” is the perfect choice to open the DVD, as the song perfectly captures the down-home flavor of the Tennessee festival. Also featured are: Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Against Me!, Broken Social Scene, Metallica, Gogol Bordello, My Morning Jacket, Les Claypool, Jack Johnson, Chali 2na and Pearl Jam, among others.
