Pearl Jam, Metallica, Kanye West, B. B. King, Jack Johnson and Alison Krauss and Robert Plant (both below) will be among the more than 100 acts at the seventh annual Bonnaroo Music and Arts festival this year, the organizers announced. Taking place from June 12 to 15 at its regular spot, a 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tenn., south of Nashville, the festival will also include Willie Nelson, Phil Lesh, the Mars Volta, Sigur Ros, Jack White’s Raconteurs, My Morning Jacket, Death Cab for Cutie, Levon Helm and the list goes on. Bonnaroo was one of the first rock festivals to specialize in broad, eclectic programming, but along with Coachella in California, it has faced stiffer competition as similar events have sprung up around the country.
