HT Giveaway: Bonnaroo X Tickets

With a philosophy of “if you build it, they will come,” AC Entertainment and Superfly Presents launched the inaugural Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in June of 2002 with a jam-friendly lineup, inviting live music fans to join them for three days on a farm roughly an hour Southeast of Memphis, TN. Bonnaroo quickly cemented itself as arguably the premier destination music festival in the country by impressively serving up a diverse lineup of the biggest names in music, as well as offering everything from a full slate of comedians to a movie theater to a silent disco, even to a sports bar.

This year Bonnaroo reaches a major milestone moment as the fest turns the ripe old age of ten, and has once again booked a formidable roster of talent from the worlds of rock, folk, jam, hip-hop, country and more. Nodding to its jamband roots the tenth installment of Bonnaroo will be headlined by Widespread Panic, who will be joined at the top of the bill by Eminem, Arcade Fire and the recently reunited Buffalo Springfield.

  1. Stephen Stills w/ Buffalo Springfield…and Neil Young. Love, love, love Stephen Stills!!

  2. Galactic! Don’t know if anyone has said this yet but it’s not an hour southeast of Memphis, maybe Knoxville?

  3. I have to say, I can’t decide whether I’m most excited about seeing ROBYN, GRACE POTTER, or LORETTA LYNN! I have to go see these ladies!

  4. Andrea Belanger because she chose my good friend from Toronto to be her lead guitarist for her backing band! It’ll be his and her first Bonnaroo performance (their both Berklee grads aka dropouts)!!!

  5. I firmly believe the fact that I have the chance to see Buffalo Springfield for the first time makes me skipping work for this completely acceptable. . . .

  6. Most excited? Dr John and the Original Meters! How can the original artists performing the inspiration for the name behind this iconic fest not be the highlight?

  7. I want to seeee My Morning Jacket and Arcade Fire sooooo incredibly BaD!!!! And who wouldn’t mind watching the sexy Grace Potter ;D

  8. I can’t decide so I’ll give you three – MMJ and Mumford & Sons as acts I’d be seeing for the first time ever, and Eminem because his live show killed way back in high school and I’d love to see what he does with the festival spotlight. Now gimme them tickets!!!

  9. The ORIGINAL!! Buffalo Springfield with Joe Vitale and Rick Rosas. That show is going to be spectacular!

  10. I saw MMJ for the first time many moons ago at the Roo in the pouring rain. It was immediately after seeing one of my favorite bands,moe. playing in the rain, thunder, and lighting on the Sonic Stage, so I was already very excited. It wound up being my favorite performance period from both of the Roos I attended, and I saw some pretty awesome shit!! Been one of my favorite bands since!

  11. im most excited to see arcade fire. been a big fan for a long time and they never come to florida so to be able to see them at my favorite festival would make this bonnaroo the best.. thank u

  12. Hailing from Louisville and this being my 3rd Bonnaroo, I can’t wait to see My Morning Jacket on the What Stage!!

  13. I’m most excited to see Buffalo Springfield. I’ve been trying to see Neil Young for the past eight years (when I started getting into his music) but every time he comes to Minnesota his tickets are overpriced or I have to work that night. This might be my only chance to see him.

  14. The father of Bonnaroo Warren Haynes! He will be everywhere on the farm playing with numerous different acts, and he never disappoints! His 2003 performance changed my life!

  15. Mumford and Sons! love love love love them and i really want to go to see them. hope all you roosters get some cooler weather this year.

  16. Can’t wait for the 2am Gogol Bordello show it will rock your face! Literally one of the coolest shows you can see.

  17. There are quite a few things I’m excited to see. . . Scissor Sisters, My Morning Jacket, Matt and Kim. . . I could keep going. I also can’t wait to experience the Silent Disco for the first time!!

  18. If I have to choose just one Big Boi, but also really excited for Man Man, Deerhunter, and Arcade Fire.

  19. So excited to see the Black Keys this year at Bonnaroo, hope I can get the tickets to go!

  20. Would love to see Amos Lee, Cory Chisel & The Wandering Sons and Ray LaMontagne. I’ve never been to Roo before and this would be AMAZING!!1

  21. Galactic!! I need these tickets to surprise my new wife with a honeymoon we couldn’t afford but one thT would be unforgettable! We went to the 1st bonnaro when we were just dating!

  22. Buffalo Springfield. As a 19 year old I never expected that I would have a chance to see this legendary band play. They have been one of my all time favorites for some time and seeing them in my home state would be an unforgettable experience. Unfortunately I lack the funds due to college to go to bonnaroo this year but If I could win a ticket it would be a dream come true.

  23. Neil Young, it would be an honor to witness a legend that could transcend through every generation and remain timeless

  24. The Strokes! But the way things and sold out tickets are going I don’t think I’m going to be able to afford going!

    The Strokes!

  25. Id love to see g love and bela fleck.. more so victor wooten. And eminem. Then robert plant… id love to win tickets.. ill be in manchester then.. I have family there… there is not much to do there, bonnaroo would be awesome. Pick me lol.

  26. Arcade Fire. Not since Radiohead have I been so excited about a new band. They are great, live or on record. There are so many more worth mentioning, but you only let me pick one, if I could pick more, then I would run out of characters before finishing this comment!!

  27. It’s a tie between String Cheese Incident and Gogol Bordello. Hope my lack of decisiveness doesn’t keep me from winning.

  28. lots of solid acts, but Arcade Fire has incredible energy. They are going to steal the show at the roo

  29. Last year I discovered Mumford and Sons because I ended up at a different tent than I was planning on, glad it happened. Looking forward to finding the next unexpected treasure at Bonnaroo X!

  30. Most excited to see either Widespread Panic or Buffalo Springfield. Call me weird if you want.

  31. I am most excited to see the Black Keys! I saw them last year at Bonnaroo and almost passed out. I could feel the music throughout my entire body. Almost a religious experience. Then again, Arcade Fire rocks my socks off every time!

  32. Really looking forward to see How eminem does in the festival atmosphere, I hope he is electric on stage

  33. Really, I am most excited to see everyone. I have been so broke this past year dealing with so much financial turmoil left by others, I really just want to get out there and ENJOY LIFE SOME. I need it. But really, I wanna see as much music as I possibly can, though I have never seen Phish before.

  34. I’m most excited to see Red Hot Chili Peppers because they are one of the first bands that really got me into music when I was younger! It would be awesome to see them in the Bonnaroo environment and relive memories through their songs 🙂

  35. Too many to list. However, Red Hot Chili Peppers are a must must must see for me. Yet, I think that’s too obvious. So I’m going to go with Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. who I missed seeing at ACL last year and would love to make it up to them this year at the ‘roo!
