McCartney, Mumford and Tom Petty to play Bonnaroo 2013It doesn't take more than a quick glance at Bonnaroo's 2013 lineup to know this year's fest is going to rock. With Paul McCartney, Mumford & Sons and Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers leading the charge, the four-day music and arts festival in Manchester, Tennessee, has a little something for everyone.
The list, which was announced on Tuesday, includes Björk, Wilco, Pretty Lights, R. Kelly and the Wu-Tang Clan. Daniel Tosh, who helped reveal the artists participating at this year's event, is among the comedians performing. Kendrick Lamar, The xx, Passion Pit, The Lumineers, Grizzly Bear, Nas, ZZ Top, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Cat Power, A$AP Rocky and Billy Idol will also be in attendance, along with a long list of other acts. Check out Bonnaroo.com for the full lineup, and keep an eye out for additional artists to come. The festival runs from June 13 to June 16, with tickets going on sale Saturday, February 23 at 12 p.m. ET.

Feces are smelly.

need a rest!!!
is one of the greatest men in rock history. thank god he married that nice lady from the hamptons.
send me the report let me read it......
its a tool
Not a big fan of multiple day festivals but this one may be an exception!!. Wow what a line up, ZZ Top and Tom Petty would be enough for me but to add Paul, Wilco and more puts the icing on the cake.
you need too be treated better...your always working...what's wrong with that band for god sakes.
i'm straight and sane too
many see the beatles reunion...some don't...doesn't matter.
Im straight, I swear...
Im straight, I swear...
Im sane, I swear...
i'm straight and sane too
Im straight, I swear.
Im straight, I swear...
Im real. I swear...
The days of Paul McCartney are over. Didn't anybody listen to him at the Olympics? His voice is done. Just keep writing, and let somebody else sing. He isn't the only one. Anybody heard Steven Stills of late. Horrible.
I saw him in St. Louis in December. I was worried about his voice since that Olympics appearance. I was worried for nothing. Paul was just fantastic. He's not done yet.
Every single pro singer who tours has had days where their voices sounded like they were ruined. It happens. You get a cold, just like anyone else, but instead of resting your throat you have to go out and sing 20 songs a night. It shreds the voice. Paul's done plenty of singing since and he still sounds like Paul McCartney, so maybe you should realize you're not a doctor or any kind of expert and you know absolutely nothing about Paul McCartney.
I'm not deaf and I know a used up voice when I hear one. I don't need to be a doctor to know when some bodies voice is done anymore than you know what YOU are talking about.
Paul McCartney is a great guy and we hope for the best for a beatles cd.
everyone told him he still has it, he looks great for his age...recharge time and then bang all over again.
he's just recharging his battery for upcoming tour.....
I can't wait to see that hot new Mexican rapper, Chingy Tu Madre.
Wow. How boring. So Chumbawumba and Fine Young Cannibals were busy this year? Boooorring!!!
Not much of a fan of Paul's more recent music, but can't argue with Band on the Run, Jet, Uncle Albert, Yesterday, Let It Be, Hey Jude. Shall I go on?!
wanna hear him-school time!
Lennen = talent
McCartney = pop star
Lennen = Spelling of Lennon made by people who don't know what they're talking about.
Lennon is spelled L-e-n-n-o-n, not L-e-n-n-e-n dude.
Read a book. - and get some respect, becasue Sir Paul rocks!
get over the hump...cars, music, stuff– k?
Bah humbug. Mostly mainstream crap. It's just another festival, now. If it was 1979 I'd want to see Petty and Macca.
I'd rather go back in time to Bonnarroo 2003: Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals, Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Yonder Mountain String Band, Lucinda Williams, Béla Fleck and the Flecktones, Keller Williams, The Funky Meters, My Morning Jacket. Ben Kweller, Tortoise, and Sonic Youth. Animal Collective, John McLaughlin, Beach House, and one or two others are the only bands I'll miss not seeing.
i saw Paul McCartney twice . the man is a legend, a muli talented multi instrument capable muscian . l cannot compare which concert was better but l know it is better than any current so called music or pretend artists of today...the ones who rip off the great iconic artistist from the Beatles ,Zepplin, the Stones and all others from the era of the greatest time of music. These " old men " are Rock and Roll born from Jazz and the Blues.
Hey y'all I'm gonna be bustin' out some new grooves during my set, so prepare yo'selfs. Here's a sample...imagine a butt-shakin' bass lick:
Everybody doin' it, doin' it, doin' it
Pickin' they nose and chewin' it, chewin' it, chewin' it...
R. Kelly
I dedicated these lyrics form Hair to American Taxpayer and Bacon Supporter:
"She asks me why, why I'm just a hairy guy.
I'm hairy noon and nighty night night, my hair is a fright.
I'm hairy high and low, but don't ask me why, cause he don't know.
It's not for lack of bread, like the Grateful Death.
Darlin'
Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair.
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen.
Give me down to there hair, shoulder length or longer hair
Here baby, there, momma, ev'rywhere, daddy, daddy.
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair. Flow it, show it, long as I can grow it, my hair.
I'd let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees, give a home to the fleas in my hair.
A home for the fleas, a hive for the buzzin' bees,
A nest for birds, there ain't no words for the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of my:
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it, long as I can grow it, my hair
I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy, snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty,
Oily, greasy, fleecy, shining, streaming, gleaming, flaxen, waxen,
Knotted, polka dotted, twisted, beaded, braided,
Powdered, flowered and confettied, bangled, tangled, spangled and spahettied.
Oh say can you see, rise if you can,
And my hair's too short
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair.Flow it, show it,
Long as God can grow it, my hair
They'll be ga-ga at the go-go when they see me in my toga,
My toga meade of blond, brilliantined, biblical hair.
My hair like Jesus wore it, Halleluja I adore it, Halleluja Mary loved her son,why don't my mother love me?
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair
Folw it, show it
Long as God can grow it, my hair
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair
Folw it, show it
Long as God can grow it, my hair"
song by MAC DERMOT, GALT/RADO, JAMES/RAGNI, GEROME
Hair is a happy song. Thanks for posting it. : )
Nice little flashback... But I thought the lyric was,
"Oh say can you see my eyes if you can, then my hair's too short"
hey paul!!!id love to run my fingers through your HAIR!!!...keep on rockin..cheers
Paul and me are going to party on stage like the rolling stones digg then were gonna take as many hot hippie chicks back to the tour bus for some down home hippie love! hope u have a grand time like me peace!
9 of us–romance in the afternoon for awhile!!!
ZZ Top. I've always wanted to see them – and then poop on their heads.
I want to poop in their beards myself.
LOL 🙂
I want to pee on them.
R. Kelly
ZZ Top kicks @$$. You, on the other hand, are a loser.
Then I want to pee on all the little girls in the audience, 'specially thems that's under 18.
"If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it"
R. Kelly
I saw them once, a long time ago...good concert. Someone stole their car that pm. Still wonder how they got away w/that...?
I've seen ZZ Top and Tom Petty. Both were really good shows. I mainly listen to classic rock, so I haven't even heard of half these bands that will be playing. Time to broaden my horizons?
i have the man phone, the friend phone and that other phone
I'm telling. I'm telling mom you have her phone again. Embicile.
Shut up Alecia you fat pig. I got this phone for Christmas. It isn't mom's. Santa brought it to me.
What about the poor starving zombies? i know you have seen them on TV. Who is going to feed them? I think maybe the government should round up grown ups that don't work and maybe use them for zombie food. And also school teachers. Yeah. Ones that give book reports and homework. I bet zombies would like them.
thank you.
I don't know, but I bet it is something way cool. like a snow day or teacher work day.
likes hippies. they need to take a bath.
Hope the government will check out this hippie festival and put at least half if them in jail. Nobody likes dirty lice infested flea ridden hippies that probably have dandruff. Dang hippies.
is my favorite beatle and still cute i may add.
he's not really a hippie. he's a good guy.
I agree. I'm tired of my tax money supporting people of color and hippies and liberals too lazy to work. I say the government should round them all up and ship 'em overseas to Somalia where ther are millions of starving cannibsls. They could boil these progressives up and make themselves a stew.
Typical commentary from your typical right-wing American fascist. I'll bet you cheered at the end of Easy Rider. Is it difficult to type on your computer one handed, jacking off to the flag while wearing a white sheet and pointy hood?
'Murica! Lol
Just a bunch off dirty smell lice infested flea ridden hippies playing gay music. It's gonna be a gay poooop eating festival.
& the troll of the year award goes to...
loser.
she's not dry
Dis old white honkie need to sit his ass down. Don't nobody listen to dat dried out sh1t, jayz 2pac jeezy dats what's up
Public Enemy & Beastie Boys played in 2010, Eminem & Lil Wayne in 2011, Nas + Wu-tang this year. Bonnaroo is very diverse and has many different genre's, every year.
I meant 2009 for PE and BB, Jay Z played in 2010.
Dis dat duh...where the hell did you get your education? Assuming you got one at all....what a moron!
Well, when you get 2pac to headline, then maybe Paul can have a seat. Till then, he's produced more success and hits than all the artists you listed combined. Just because he doesn't speak in jiberish doesn't mean you have to hate on him.
But what do anybody you mentioned have anything to do with music? they are talkers backed by stolen, sorry, sampled music previously recorded. Im embarrassed for them that they would be on a bill with people that actually play instruments and sing. It makes them look like wannabes or frauds.
Jc
"Well, when you get 2pac to headline, then maybe Paul can have a seat."
Not in this or any life time. Beatle Paul has had bowel movements with more musical talent then 2pac ever dreamed of.
What a show this will be.Better go cuz their won't be as many Monterey style festivals for much longer.
