BUFFETT ADDED TO SOGGY BONNAROO

Revellers at the Bonnaroo festival in Tennessee are hoping JIMMY BUFFETT's sunny songs about Florida fishing and cocktails stop the rain at the annual music event after storms ruined the opening night on Thursday (11Jun09).
The easy-listening superstar has been added to the line-up at the last minute and will perform on Saturday morning (13Jun09) alongside African musician Ilo Ferreira and his Coral Reefer All-Stars.
Bonnaroo 2009 had a soggy start thanks to rain and thunder storms on Thursday - and more rain is forecast for the weekend.
Passion Pit, Portugal The Man, and hip-hop acts the Knux and Murs braved the stormy weather to perform on the opening night.
The Beastie Boys, Phish, Public Enemy and David Byrne are among the headliners for Friday night's (12Jun09) Bonnaroo, while Bruce Springsteen, MGMT, Nine Inch Nails and Snoop Dogg join Buffett among the highlights of the weekend.
Reunited rockers Phish will return on Sunday night (14Jun09) to close out the festival.
