Kanye West was nearly booed off the stage at this year’s Bonnaroo Festival.
The Grammy winning man-Diva was originally scheduled to perform at 8:15 p.m., but was pushed to an exhausting 2:45a.m. By 4:15 a.m. there was still no Kanye. Understandably agitated fans “began hurling glow sticks at the stage and screaming anti-West sentiments.”
From the few people that actually stuck around to see his performance, the reviews have been less than stellar. A fan on Stereogum.com said, “He was two hours late, cut his show short, didn’t once acknowledge the crowd that waited two hours on an already late show, not even a wave goodbye…I’m no longer a Kanye fan, huge disappointment.”

Today is a good day to be a member of Lez Zeppelin, an all-female Led Zeppelin cover band.
The media was in a frenzy this morning upon seeing the “Zeppelin” name amongst others in the Bonnaroo 2008 lineup. Problem is, the Zeppelin they hoped for is not playing, unless Robert Plant doing some sort of adult alternative dad-rock thing with Alison Krauss and T-Bone Burnett is considered Led Zep. But no, truth seekers - Lez Zeppelin it is. With a Z.
The truth is, Lez Zep is just your average bar band doing C+ covers of songs you’ve heard your entire life…but with girls! I guess that’s kinda cool, but nothing to get all riled up about.
Since the headline explains it all, let’s just get right to it, shall we?
For extra convenience I’ve broken down the acts into different categories, shown after the jump. While some acts may not be in the category of your liking, most are…so suck it. Read More »
In Led Zeppelin’s heyday, the late John Bonham’s caveman stomp supplied the blueprint for every Bamm-Bamm inspired drummer; John Paul Jones anchored the band with seismic bass and keyboard accompaniment; Page’s riffs proved the theory of plate tectonics and Plant’s coyote howl could tear the pasties off a stripper. Yeah…Led Zep was (and is) pretty good.
If you’re gonna go big, you might as well go Zeppelin:
It has been rumored that Led Zeppelin will be headlining (alongside Metallica) at 2008’s Bonnaroo Music and Arts festival in Manchester, TN.
Led Zeppelin, arguably the greatest rock and roll band of all time, have not played together since the early 1990’s. They recently announced a one-off tribute show at O2 Arena in London for the late Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegün.
Over 20 million fans from all over the globe requested tickets to the December 10 show. As of today it will cost at least $2,000+ dollars to buy a ticket on the resale market.
Like The Police in 2007, Led Zeppelin’s decision to headline “the largest hippy festival in the world,” frequented by college students on summer break is a great way to introduce themselves to a new (read: younger) group of hardcore fans.
The four-day festival begins June 12, and the official Bonnaroo website says tickets will go on sale in March of 2008. Start saving now.
