Bonnaroo 2010: the first 96 confirmed artists

The organizers of the Bonnaroo Festival have announced the initial line-up of the 2010 edition. Some of the usual supects are there - The Black Keys, Les Claypool, Disco Biscuits, Flaming Lips (who will play Dark Side of the Moon with Stardeath & White Dwarves), and Medeski Martin & Wood.

Oldies but goodies like Jeff Beck, John Fogerty and Kris Kristofferson, and - a bit of surprise - Jimmy Cliff, and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band will show the crowd how it's done. Festival attendees bringing their kids don't want to miss They Might Be Giants. Grown-ups with a sense of humour will put Tenacious D and Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers on their acts to catch list.

Americana lovers will be treated by acts like Alison Krauss & Union Station, Julia Nunes, and the Punch Brothers.

The mainstream is stll trying to get in, so you'll get Brandi Carlile, Tori Amos, Norah Jones, the Kings of Leon, Dave Matthews and Stevie Wonder.
