The lineup for this 2008 Bonnaroo Festival has been announced. I still haven’t let the lineup sink in yet. I am totally mesmerized with the poster’s aesthetic perfection. Great colors and font… I really dig. I’d love to have someone design PMA’s layout reminiscent to this poster, nothing definite, but something to keep in mind you great bright-vector-geniuses.

Bonnaroo

I know, this gorgeous poster does make it sort of hard to read the lineup so… here you go! Thank me later.

I’m friends with some of Black Kids (see my photos when they kicked off a warm up tour in Atlanta/Athens last fall at http://www.avidphoto.net
). They’re not going to be at Bonnaroo, so you might want to scratch them off the list. Check the new poster – yours must be old. :/

I was planning on renting an RV with some friends as its only 3 hours from ATL, but c’est la vie.
