Tom Petty welcomes the masses
to his headlining set.

Bonnaroo Hits the Mainstream

In only its fifth year, Bonnaroo has become the premier festival in America and is on par with the legendary European Festivals. For the 2006 iteration of the festival, the bookings took a noticeable shift with a crop of headliners that are some of the top rock acts in modern history. ASCAP members Tom Petty, Radiohead (PRS), Elvis Costello (PRS) and Beck got the attention of mainstream music fans that might have considered Bonnaroo a 'jamband' fest in the past. Covering all styles of music - with emerging artists playing alongside superstars - Bonnaroo is chance to see your favorite artists and artists that will become your favorites in one location. There is truly something for everyone. With over 80,000 people turning a farm into an efficient city for one weekend a year, Bonnaroo should be marked on your 2007 calendar as your musical vacation.
