Kanye West, Elton John, and Jack White head up a huge lineup for this year's Bonnaroo Music and Arts festival. The four-day festival will return to Manchester, TN on June 12 with tickets going on sale this Saturday.
This year's festival is full of surprises, not least of which being the absence of Outkast, who have been booked to play over 40 festivals this year. Still, there won't be much time to miss Big Boi and Andre 3000, as this years festival boasts sets from Vampire Weekend, Arctic Monkeys, Frank Ocean, Damon Albarn, Disclosure and many, many more.
Of course, this is not Kanye's first time playing Bonnaroo. You may remember that in 2008 Kanye's performance was met by boos and "f--- Kanye" chants when he took the stage at 4:30 AM. After the set, Yeezy took to the internet blaming festival organizers for his late set. Hopefully this year they will be better prepared for whatever tricks Kanye has in store for festival goers.
