With COVID vaccines making the rounds and bands beginning to reschedule their 2020 tours, the concept of a music festival — the ultimate group gathering, and for the past year an unthinkable event — has reentered everyday conversation. Now, Bonnaroo, every American’s favorite music festival/first-time shroom-taking experience, has announced its return, and has included in its ranks some bands that readers of The Pit might enjoy.
Alongside Tyler, the Creator and Lizzo, Bonnaroo 2021 will feature performances by Deftones, Primus, Foo Fighters, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, Incubus, and Run The Jewels. The festival is set to go down September 2nd through 5th in Manchester, Tennessee. Tickets go on sale at noon CST.
