Friday in Photos

The festival’s first full day delivered two things in mass quantities: solid rock sets and steamy temperatures. So as Ben Folds and Death Cab for Cutie made love to the masses on the Which Stage, others sought refuge in Bonnaroo’s gigantic fountain or through pastoral recreational activities on the vast lawns. At the festival’s southern edge, people lined up for “blocks” outside the Dolby Cinema, getting some much needed AC and movies like King Kong, Madagascar, and Stewart Copeland’s Police documentary.
