[photogallerylink id=82629 align=left]A few weeks ago a number of us were hit with a huge dilemma when it came to the weekend of June 10th: to head down to Manchester, Tennessee for a smorgasbord of live music at the Bonnaroo Music Festival, or to stay right here in Chicago and experience a soulful weekend of live blues at the Chicago Blues Festival.

You really can’t go wrong either way, but those who weren’t willing to shell out the cash, drive 10 hours, and live like a hooligan for the weekend (or even those who just chose the blues) can stay updated on Bonnaroo performances all weekend long. Vevo will be webcasting some of the performances online, including: [lastfm]Arcade Fire[/lastfm], [lastfm]The Strokes[/lastfm], [lastfm]My Morning Jacket[/lastfm], [lastfm]Mumford & Sons[/lastfm], [lastfm]Florence & the Machine[/lastfm], [lastfm]Ray LaMontagne[/lastfm], [lastfm]Smith Westerns[/lastfm], [lastfm]Mavis Staples[/lastfm], and more.

Check out the webcast schedule below and experience Bonnaroo this weekend, minus the sweat.
