Regardless of any conflicts you may have found in the schedule, you have to realize that the promoters are working with over SIXTY bands and SIXTY different schedules. Many of the artists are playing other cities while we will be at the festival. Give the promoters a break and go and listen to whatever you hear that is pleasing to your ears and soul. I went to Bonnaroo last year, and my hat is off to the people who put it together!
