Rothbury Festival announces headliners

The Dead, Bob Dylan, String Cheese Incident and Willie Nelson will headline the second annual Rothbury Festival at Michigan's Double JJ Ranch, it has been confirmed.

Tickets for the event, which runs from July 2 to July 5, go on sale on March 20. Other performers include the Black Crowes, Gov.t Mule and Girl Talk.

Like last year's event, Rothbury organisers are making sure the festival is as "green" as possible, Rolling Stone reports. A "Think Tank" discussing a green economy will be part of the festival's effort.
