The crowds grew substantially for Day 2 of the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival on Friday (6/12.) Although scattered thunderstorms were in the forecast, the day, other than a five-minute evening shower, reportedly was rain-free.

Fans were treated to the music of Yeah Yeah Yeahs [ tickets ], Al Green [ tickets ], Ani DiFranco [ tickets ], Gomez [ tickets ], David Byrne, Santigold [ tickets ], St. Vincent, TV on the Radio [ tickets ], The Dirty Projectors, Grizzly Bear [ tickets ] and Phoenix, to name a few. The artists who created the most buzz were Public Enemy [ tickets ], for performing their album "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back" in its entirety, and Beastie Boys [ tickets ] who invited Nas [ tickets ] to join them in an exclusive performance of a song from their upcoming album "Hot Sauce Committee."
