Bonnaroo (mereged)

vip and volunteers get them for free though

 

ten days

 

i leave on sat to make my way there. we should all meet up

 

Where are you from?

I'm leaving next Wednesday from Southern Ontario.

 

New Mexico so down south

 

We should all meet up at Bonnaroo! Totally, like maybe Thursday before anyone is too strung out.

 

Yeah, we shoul have a meet up !!! how about 6:30 at the Mushroom Fountain !!!! For all you Roo Virgins, Just walk into the main areana & you'll find it Peace xx

 

we should all have little signs that say hipforums on them or does anyone have cell phones?

 

Damn, String Cheese, STS9 and a Medeski/Martin side project all at the same time. Those would all be in my top 5. I would probly go with Medeski, try and catch a lil STS9 before medeski and martin get on stage. Not to mention the "T.B.D" whoever that is. Rubbish! They should have the schedule set now, they will probly throw in someone worth seein in this slot just cuz they are retarded. Keller playing with the WMD's is a little more bluegrass than normal Keller. So that may or may not take into account when deciding if you wanna do that or Ben Harper. (i would still probly see Keller as im not a huge Ben Harper fan either.) The Keller and Ween conflict does suck pretty bad though. DJ Shadown late night could be some sick shit.

DO NOT miss the Stanton Moore Trio early Thurs. If i was goin, this would be my do not miss show. Since im not a huge Tool, Police, or Cheese fan (although i have to admit i had a great time at a Cheese show at Wakarusa 2005). Most of the "big time. big name" acts i just dont really get into for some reason. Im sure you will have a great time tho, all fests have schedule conflicts. This year for Wakarusa, Saturday is seriously littered with horrible and mean conflicts. Ozric Tentacles vs. Everyone Orchestra (their only set of the fest) is flat out cold. But thats just a sign that you have a good fest goin on when you gotta miss some stuff

 

I can imagine the Cell companies won't complain about that

 

I heard that TBD is the superjam, which I also don't want to miss because I hear each year it's pretty kick ass. I think if anything, I may just end up stage surf on Sat. night. Not too much longer to go! Yay

 

i'm not going to miss Ben Harper, the string cheese incident or Michael Franti those are my top three for the fest

 

right now I'm really really looking forward to Keller, SCI and Xavier Rudd.

OH, and Old Crow Medicine Show.

 

Things are looking good this year despite a few scheduling conflicts, SCI vs STS9, Ween vs WMDs, Govt Mule vs Flaming Lips are all tough choices. I hope everyone has a good time and stays safe this year.

 

yeaaaah. there's a damien rice/ziggy marley/xavier rudd conflict that I'm not too happy about

 

I hear ya about that!

But of course, being a die hard Xav fan that I am, there's not a snowballs chance in hell I will miss his set, even though the day I get back from the Roo I will see him in my home state. He's just that damn good, especially live.


Oh and 1 week, exactly, till I leave for Bonnaroo! YAY!!!!

 

gah! just a feeww more days. you know, i keep telling myself that. . .and the fewer days that are left the more and more this town begins to not suck. . .you have no idea how bad it is for the other 360 days out of the year living in this shit hole town and hearing the bitching and moaning or. . .and this breaks my heart the most. . . the kids who's parents BUY them tix for graduation that dont go, but refuse to sell their tickets because "they're pretty'' no joke. i acutally had a girl tell me that last year, but that was no big deal cause i got my ticket free from one of the city aldermen. . .tis a shame i cant do that now. since they bought the land they are no longer kissing manchesters governmental ass. . .

 

i'm so excited

 

zfgbkdjfbkjdfb i am SOOOOOOOOOOO excited!!!!

 

Even more exciting is that so far the weather forcast for the fest looks great!, a lot can change in a week, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
