I wouldn't be surprised if the tickets were forged. It seems highly unlikely that this person won so many tickets.

Oh yess I have a brilliant time thank you! Lovely crowd, and the weather was perfect :D

We didn't get there until around 5:30ish as we decided food was more important than the support bands..(however we did want to see the Black Keys!)

The Black Keys were pretty good! Nice sounds and kept the crowd energetic.

As for Kings of Leon! Wow...they hold themselves really well live!! Caleb Followill's voice was powerful and was pretty much like it is on their studio recordings which was brilliant!! The more popular songs (sep Sex on fire) really got the crowd going! singing and dancing like mad!! It was fun :D I really enjoyed their last song in the set, Black Thumbnail. Quite a fast and heavy track for Kings of Leon. A great way to end the show. :)

Loved their cover version of the Pixies 'Where is my mind?' His voice sounds really good on that. The crowd seemed to like it! :D I think there may be some fan recordings of it floating around on youtube.

They also played four new songs from their upcoming album: Southbound, Immortal, Mary and Radioactive. They were typically Kings of Leon sounds with a bit of a twist. Enjoyed listening to them!

Set list: Crawl, Taper Jean Girl, My Party, Be Somebody, Immortals, Molly's Chambers, Fans, Milk, Closer, Mary, Wasted, 4 Kicks, The Bucket, Radioactive, Charmer, Where Is My Mind, Sex On Fire, Notion, On Call, Southbound, Trani, Knocked Up, Manhattan, Use Somebody, Black Thumbnail.

Yeah it sounds like the Bonnaroo set I listened to - I really like Southbound! Oh and they played Trani (faint!) - wow!!! Good to see Milk in there. If they had played Arizona that would have been perfect (erm, not like I was there anyway, but I can dream). Will have to check out Youtube and see what I can find!

Were they filming it all?? - just wondering if there are any plans to release high quality footage of the show - the Bonnaroo stream was pretty good.
