Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Yeah, their shows are incredible...I loved Roo stone-cold sober in the heat and dust....but a HS show at a dive bar is hard to beat...especially if you are good and drunk (even though you know there is no way you are as drunk as Craig).
I opted out of the Devo show to see 'em in Baltimore,a week or two after Roo. Looking forward to the new songs. And after this bit from the press release I got even more excited.

Apparently, Stay Positive leaked a couple days ago. There's a big fuss about it over at the official THS board. Personally, I'm gonna hold out until the actual release date. It'll make hearing that much better.

the new album is pretty amazing. constructive summer and slapped actress are some of their best work. Finn has brought his a-game once again lyrically. band sounds real tight...bobby's drumming is real solid..best he's sounded. good solo's from tad on lord im discouraged...wow. and the talk-box on joke about jamaica? never thought i'd say i like that but its pretty cool. one for the cutters is definitely a new direction for them but i am digging the story. Navy sheets sounds very Lifter Puller to me. Yeah sapphire is becoming a favorite when after the first few listens i thought 'meh'. anyway...i cant wait until july to see these guys again. cant get enough!

I'm in love with this album already. I can already sing and play Slapped Actress by heart. Gosh, I sure am tempted to get that leak, the thought of driving to Bonnaroo tomorrow without having it blasting over my car speakers makes me a little sad inside.

they are releasing it on itunes next week apparently to combat the leak...pretty cool. i'll still be waiting for the vinyl though. i've heard there are up to 8 b-sides taken from these sessions so i want to hold out and see how those are released.
So far, my fave is the very first track - Constructive Summer.
yeah that may be their best track to date. The final track 'Slapped Actress' is up there as well. other notables are Lord I'm Discouraged, Yeah Sapphire and Joke About Jamaica. Love this band...cant wait to see these new songs live.
