Last Bonnaroo Post, I Promise: Part 2

Some photos that were left out of VH1's roundup, so ONE more Bonnaroo 2005 post (and two MP3s)...

Matisyahu Meets Mike Gordon
At 17, the future Hasidic reggae-rapper followed Phish on the road. In this photo he and Gordo are meeting for the first time.

Patterson Hood Of Drive-By Truckers
Saw DBT last NYE, so I figured I didn't have to catch their set. Glad I did.

Keren Ann
A shame that more people didn't show up to listen. Everyone was at Umphree's McGee, who I have yet to listen to.

My Morning Jacket & Friends
Mysterious maestro was conducting the band and an expanding menagerie of puppety oddballs. Surreal and totally unexpected.

Bagels & Lox With The Press, Sponsored By Matisyahu
Plenty of Cool Whip (?), but not enough regular (i.e., non-blueberry) cream cheese. Matisyahu was friendly and soft-spoken.

Iron & Wine's Sam Beam Contemplates
Really nice guy. I told him I wrote on a "website" where he had "big fans"

Crazy Creatures
Grapehead was the leader. In this photo, he was playfully castigating Green Triclops for dilly-dallying.

Jenny Lewis Of Rilo Kiley
Baby, she's bad newwwwws. (She also mooned the audience for a sec, but my camera wasn't quick enough to preserve for posterity.)

"Where Am I?" Board
Concertgoers can leave messages for each other if they don't have cell phones and/or are tripping balls.

King Of Leon Matthew Followill Waits To Get His Baggage Screened
Stereogum is a pathetic paparazzi.

Passed Out At The Airport
These people are tired.

Here's Trey covering Peter Gabriel and Van Halen (with Bo Bice). Huge thanks to Ford Prefect (via Largehearted Boy) for the flac seed.

Trey Anastasio - "Sledgehammer (Live @ Bonnaroo 6-10-05)" (MP3)

Hello everyone,

Nutria, the new band that formed after The Possibilities broke up in January 2004, has finished a new album and is aiming on releasing it in late spring 2005. The Possibilities broke up after finishing their 'last album' at Tom Lewis' 3rd Ear Studios in Athens Ga. Though the band is not in existence due to the recording process, the album is finished and needs a home. The band's previous album, Way Out, released on Parasol Records in the US and Ulftone in Europe, received great press and touring with road horses such as The High Strung, The Capitol Years, The Radar Bros, The Silos, Jack Logan, The Dashboard Saviors, Alex Chilton, Jason and The Scorchers, REM, The Minus 5, The Glands, and many others, gained the group a lot of good response on the road. During this time, the Possibilities also recorded and performed the Monkey Paw album with Jack Logan on Backburner Records. Having their song 'You Don't Mean It', from The Possibilities self-titled 1999 release on Backburner Records, covered by Peter Buck and Scott McCaughey of The Minus 5 brought about attention from the critics as the Minus 5 put their version of the song on their Hollywood Records release, and performed the song on The Conan OBrian Show and the Chris Isaak Show.

Nutria, however, has wrapped up a new album of brand new, post-The Possibilities songs, and is looking for a label that focuses on the type of power-pop indie rock that the group of veteran musicians have developed. Songs from both group's completed albums can be found on the internet at

Hey yo, I call foul on pimping your band in a completely unrelated comments thread. I get enough of that crap at work, anyway.

I'll listen to your band when I get around to buying those penis enlargement pills. I hear they're GREAT.

Hey i'm reallydrunkright now butI wantedto congratulate youon the seemingly great time you had atBonnaroo, Scott. I'm one of the so called "hippies" that most of the elitist people on this site make fun of constantly (that also is a big Stereogum fan). I love great jamabands and I'm not going to apoligize for that. As Frank Zappa said, "I'm not going to explain myself for the rest of my life. You either get it or you don't."

Please excusethe fuckedup spacebar onmy keyboard and my disregardin correcting typingerrors.

QUICK QUESTION!

I haven't been here in a while - does Scott still man Stereogum?

The place seems ... different ... for some reason. Is there New Management? Scotty didn't leave, did he? :-(

It's Umphrey's McGee - not Umphree's McGee. And they're the best.

Nutria is related, because it is former members of The Driveby Truckers (Patterson's old band) predecessors, The Lot Lizards.
