Bonnaroo 2011 was my first ever music festival and it was fucking amazing. Looking forward, I can't wait a whole year for another similar experience. What festivals should I go to? I figure I can make pretty much anything in the eastern half of the US.
Unfortunately I'll be missing out on All Good next month, but my wife will be representing!
We went to Moogfest last year and I was very much underwhelmed... It was my second festival, and I was expecting so much more after going to 'Roo. I won't be back this year.
While you're checking out Camp Bisco, give Electric Zoo a look too. Electric Forest also has one of the best lineups of any festival I've seen this year.

I'm not the typical roo-goer as I prefer cities, plumbing, and AC...and the only thing that matters to me with a festival is the line-up...so I'll suggest Lollapalooza. The line-up this year is better than Bonnaroo and you get all night to explore Chicago. Arctic Monkeys and Muse...enough said.
And Glastonbury. It's better than Bonnaroo, but it's in England. If you can make the trip it is completely worth it. Roskilde too (in Denmark), though I speak Danish, so my experience was different than most non-Danes, even though they all speak fluent English.

Blackwater music festival. It's at Spirit of the Suwanee Music Park in Live Oak, FL I've been told by dozens of bonnaroo and camping festival veterans that this park is THE best ever venue for a music festival. It's supposed to be beautiful, with wide open space where you can camp anywhere.
And the line-up this year (Or at least the top of it) reads like a Bonnaroo latenight allstar lineup
the FLAMING LIPS * STS9 * GIRL TALK* GHOSTLAND OBSERVATORY PEPPER * the EXPENDABLES * EASY STAR ALLSTARS PERPETUAL GROOVE * ZACH DEPUTY * TRIBAL SEEDS Ballyhoo * Passafire * Pogo * That One Guy * Greenhouse Lounge Lucky Costello * Sir Charles (monozygotik) * Simplified * Spiritual Rez
Roskilde too (in Denmark), though I speak Danish, so my experience was different than most non-Danes, even though they all speak fluent English.
I hear Danes are friendly to Americans, is that true? That might be on my list for next year...
Yeah, I've never had any problems with any Scandinavians...though most of the time they assume I'm British, and I speak Swedish and Danish, so it isn't until they really get to know me that my citizenship comes out. Actually, I've never had any run-ins with "American hating" Europeans at all...probably because if they do start criticizing the states I am right there with them. But, regardless...yes Roskilde is awesome, Danes are amazing people and I HIGHLY reccommend attending. Or visiting Denmark in general. Copenhagen is my favorite city on the planet, and Odense is not far behind.
