Bonnaroo announces 2009 dates and ticketing info

The 2009 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival will take place June 11-14, in its home on a 700-acre farm outside of Nashville.

Ticket pre-sales for the eighth annual begin this Thursday, Dec. 4, and run through the end of the month. The ticket levels vary, including everything from VIP to a special general admission package (running at five installments of $50 plus fees). This payment plan is new to the  Bonnaroo box office, so Superfly and AC Entertainment recruited comedian Lewis Black to promote it.
