I think someone has got it all wrong somewhere. The machine website does list the 13 &15, but pollstar lists them on the 12 & 15. Plus, pollstar lists several bands on Thursday night. Yeah, the schedule could be changed a bit like you say, but, they are still working with a shitload of bands, we'll just have to make the best of it. I am confused about the show dates, but I would like to see the Machine. I tried to book them for a local bar before, but they don't come near oklahoma at any time. Regardless, Bonnaroo will surely prove to be a good time. Yeah, Bonnaroo!!!
