Oh, dear. Along with summer festival season comes summer festival season scheduling dilemmas, and this year's Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Manchester, Tenn., is no exception.
With 160 acts slated to play over four days and a handful of tents and stages, it's easy to get overwhelmed. (And that's not taking into account the stage and tent names at the festival.) Luckily, Bonnaroo's website has a handy customizable schedule thingy, so you won't miss anything. Unless, of course, you want to see both Gogol Bordello and The Avett Brothers…and Cat Power. Hey, it's all about priorities.
