The networks are in a giving mood this Thanksgiving with musical offerings. NBC and CBS are bringing on their own batch of stars, like Kiss, Hilary Diff, Meghan Trainor and Taylor Swift for competing Thanksgiving Day parades in New York City.

Now VH1 is looking to provide its own form of musical entertainment, titled A Very Bonnaroo Thanksgiving, with past performances by iconic acts at Bonnaroovia Billboard. The broadcast will delve into the archive of past Bonnaroo performances with the likes of Paul McCartney, Pearl Jam, Elton John, Metallica, Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons, Jack White, MacklemoreRyan Lewis and many more, as per the Bonnaroo website.

The special will not feature any live performances but rather replays of some of your favorite acts. So if you were there, this is a chance to relive those glorious memories on The Farm. If you were unable to get to Bonnaroo, then this is how they will induce a serious case of FOMO and get you to go next year. The live music will also be a good thing to enjoy from such great acts.

Speaking of next year, this TV special will come conveniently on the eve of Bonnaroo 2015 pre-sale tickets going on sale. The tickets will go on sale at 12 p.m. on Black Friday, Nov 28. This will force Roo fans to make the hard choice to either go out into the masses and find deals at retail stores or stay at home and buy themselves a Bonnaroo ticket.

The show starts at 9 p.m., so after you are done eating all the turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce you heart desires and you stomach can hold, you can sit down to some quality past performances at Bonnaroo. It will be aired on VH1.

If you are interested in next year, head to the Bonnaroo website for more information on tickets.
