Music fans who can’t trek to Tennessee this June for the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival still have a chance to see the action: Fuse TV is televising parts of the three-day extravaganza, its first national TV exposure.
Acts ranging from Kanye West to Metallica to Pearl Jam are slated to perform at Bonnaroo, the yearly event that is held on a farm in Manchester, Tenn. The event, which will begin June 12 and end June 15, will also feature comedians including Chris Rock and Janeane Garofalo.
Fuse plans to televise six hours of programming from the festival, ranging from performances to interviews with the artists. The network will also broadcast live from the event.
