Lots of singers including Pearl Jam, Jack Johnson, and the Dave Matthews Band & Death Cab for Cutie have given their tracks for free download program which is prepared by the Bonnaroo music festival. This festival is main purpose for encouraging Americans to speak out on environment change. The "Best of Bonnaroo" is a digital compilation of videos taken from annual Tennessee festival. The fans are allowed to download however prior to downloading the music, he or she is asked to email either the Senators, President Obama or to their local newspaper & through this email the devotee will be necessary to comment over the climate change plus its effects on the world. The Organizations working behind this gracious effort include; HeadCount & the NRDC Action Fund.

Even if you don’t send any email still you can avail the capability of downloading the music tracks; lots of of them are genuine ones to the collection. Apart from Dave Matthews Band, a lot of other singers are as well acting as a part of this compilation, for example Wilco, My Morning Jacket, O.A.R., the Decemberists, Guster, Gov't Mule are as well a part of the list. A declaration made by Jack Johnson stated that "present generation has an open chance to be recalled as an age group that face up to ecological challenges as well as its capacity to take liability for the coming time. It is very factual that responsibility falls automatically with the chance.

Road to Bonnaroo Round 2 at Mercy Lounge and The High Watt, 3/3/14 [El El]



Dodging abandoned piles left by the sure-footed least spin climbed the icy peak Cannery Row and hooked our tauntaun to the railing. We expected that the crowd would be modest, but closed the door (seriously, it's cold in here, shut the damn door), and had a number of adventurous souls that wind through the huge cloud of fog that filled the Mercy lounge. The time was upon us for 10 bands to fight for their chance to perform in a tent mere hundred meters from where Lionel Richie will nap on a bus with air conditioning. Could only claim victory - and, spoiler alert, it was about time The Him Road to Bonnaroo 2014, Round Two. 

Pairing Echo and the Bunnymen's dark sense of melody and electronic grooves of Depeche Mode in a compact package, Unlimited Future opened the festivities, maximizing the synchronized light show. If darkwave synth pop is your thing, and there were around 101, it will not be at all disappointed in this band. We're not sure about watching them at noon in a field, but his power set convinced us that we should definitely open for Gary Numan when he comes across a couple of weeks. International Young has never looked us a potential favorite band. His indie rock, with a touch of nostalgia emo always felt competent and thoughtful, but never exceptional, not too surprised when the offer last year fell short of the glory. This time, a new harder edge to their sound caught our attention - maybe it has always been there and we just notice it, but it sounded more comfortable than the last time we saw them, more relaxed, but in the knob. It was a convincing performance, but still does not improve the lyrics of that song vampires, though, sorry guys, "when the moon turns red, you're as good as dead" just sounds silly to the ears of Segregation.
