Today’s roundup gets you psyched for upcoming albums and performances from a variety of different acts. Whether you dig the unbearably badass art-metal of Jane’s Addiction or the generally unbearable Plain White T’s, we’ve got a list of shows and sounds to look forward to in the near future.
On the second day (June 12) of the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, the rain cleared up, but the brutal sun and humidity took its place as the elements of torture.
However, that didn’t stop me from braving the Which Stage for the majority of the day to catch some electrifying sets from Gomez, Animal Collective (photos above) and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Check out the photos for Gomez and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs after the cut!
Live at Stubb’s Thursday night, Gomez exploded shock waves of their upbeat, head knocking sound, keeping the audiences attention fresh from 3OH3′s previous performance.

Just a week ago, Bonnaroo’s website advertised that the 2009 lineup would be revealed Feb. 3. Well, those SOBs pulled fast one on us and announced the lineup yesterday!
Sorry folks, apparently rumors are just rumors – no Zeppelin this year. But they did snag Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band! And Phish (called that one) returning to the ‘Roo stage for two nights!
Overall, the 2009 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival team has produced one of the best lineups this side…er, that side… of the Mississippi, so make sure to clear June 11-14 on your summer calendar. No daily breakdown yet, but check out the complete lineup below:
