Behind Bonnaroo's 2024 Lineup with C3 Presents (Part 2)

This week, The What Podcast is back with part two of last week’s peek behind the Bonnaroo 2024 curtain. Barry and Lord Taco are again joined by Brad Parker and Cory Smith from C3 Presents, the folks behind the fest, to discuss a variety of topics such as The Mars Volta, what makes Bonnaroo different from other festivals, and can’t-miss performances like TV Girl and Ethel Cain.The group discusses the biggest positive and negative reactions to last year’s changes, particularly those made to ticketing and early entry. They also speak on how community events like The Roo Bus and Beer Exchange get integrated, as well as Jamtrak and how it will be tweaked. But of all the changes, they agree that what the festival changes most is lives, from attitudes to careers and beyond.Listen to the full chat on The What Podcast and you can also watch it via YouTube.
