Bonnaroo NE is modeled on the Bonnaroo formula that promoters have twice made successful in Tennessee; the sophomore edition of Bonnaroo--set to take place June 13-15 on a 600-acre farm in Manchester, Tenn.--is already sold out, according to organizers.
"Rapid ticket sales have dictated a demand for a second festival of Bonnaroo quality," Richard Goodstone of promoter Superfly Productions said in a statement, "and we're excited to bring an event of this nature to the Northeast region."
The Dead [ tickets ], Widespread Panic, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Sonic Youth, Ben Harper, the Roots, and the Flaming Lips are among the acts on the bill of June's Tennessee Bonnaroo event.
