[photogallerylink id=63346 align=left]Here in the Midwest we’ve been slogging under one of the most intense winters in history, but today I can almost feel the warmth of the southern Tennessee sun. The official line up for the 2011 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival was announced today. Once again 125 bands, 20 comedians and 80,000 of your closest friends will be descending upon the 700 acre farm just outside Manchester, Tenn. for four days of fun and music from June 9 thru 12.

The lineup, which celebrates Bonnaroo’s 10th Anniversary, will be headlined by some of the big winners at this week’s Grammy Awards.
