Bonnaroo Music Festival is gearing up for it's 10th anniversary this weekend. Since its inception, Bonnaroo has been a huge success and a summer highlight for most who have made the journey to the Manchester, Tennessee farm where it has been held each summer. Despite the fairly remote location and extremes of heat and rain, Bonnaroo has been selling out of tickets and drawing live music fans and bands from across the world. While there may not be a single factor that has led to Bonnaroo's success, it seems that diversity and being well organized are big contributors. Bonnaroo seems to be prophetic in bringing in new bands that are on the cusp of being the next big music stars. Many bands you never heard of that perform at Bonnaroo are quick to become all star wonders. Another big factor in what makes Bonnaroo an awesome time is the crowd. Beautiful girls, friendly people. Enjoy these crowd photos from last summer's Bonnaroo and don't miss out on the 9 years of Bonnaroo photos archived at Performance Impressions:

Concert Photos Magazine photographer David Oppenheimer has photographed each year of Bonnaroo. He invented the PeriscOpp Camera Boom a week before the 2010 Bonnaroo Music Festival. He explains his invention in this video to Fstoppers:

David - Although we didn't meet at the time, I remember seeing you setup and tear down your PeriscOpp Camera Boom at Nateva - Oxford Maine in 2010. Cool video you made explaining how it all works !!
