Bonnaroo is truly a spectacular place, it offers more than just music and attractions, its a destination. This year's Bonnaroo experience promises to be one for the ages, boasting a tremendously diverse lineup of musical acts and genres. There is something for everyone this year. Hippies, ex-hippies, indie-lovers, bluegrass, country folk, and hip-hop followers alike will all be offered something they can’t miss.
The return of the scruffy neighborhood record shop is as unexpected as the revival of vinyl. After CDs first hit the U.S. market in 1983, LPs were deemed largely obsolete. Later, consumers' shift to file-trading and online retail outlets such as iTunes and Amazon.com gutted the storefront music business.

For one thing, Bono is far too busy trying to save the world, and the problems facing the world ~ recession, repression, war, poverty, famine, mass migration etc ~ are nowhere near as intractable as those knots into which the music industry has managed to tie itself over the past two decades.
"You've got a music industry that has been brutalized by digital media—so they're eager to take advantage of anything they possibly can," said James McQuivey, media analyst for Forrester Research. "Then you have YouTube, which has yet to figure out a way to make money on its amazing traffic and videos. These are all parties who are extremely motivated."
