Pre-Weekend Hype
Bonnaroo tickets go on sale tommorrow at noon. I highly recommend getting tickets early and often, especially with Coachella selling out in record time. The ‘roo is offering a payment plan this year which is cool and they are going to give out 3 “golden tickets” randomly to ticket purchasers that will give you a lifetime Bonnaroo pass, backstage access, and all sorts of crazy perks. I’d sell my soul for a golden ticket. Check the site for all the details.
