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!!
So, who else is going to be chilling at home watching Bonnaroo on Fuse or Blue Room? As I sip my way through my not-going-to-Bonnaroo-this-year bottle of Jack, I will be with you all in spirit and toast to your health
I guess I'll be the only one getting wrecked and lamenting the fact that I couldn't go this year. Cheers!
As a local and this year working part-time working Bonnaroo, I was pretty miffed to find out last night that I was being forced to work mandatory overtime Friday night on my everyday job when I had already asked to work 'Roo the same night.
I had to call my employer with 'Roo last night and tell them I had to cancel 'cause my work wouldn't let me off to work for them. And I was looking forward to listening to some Metallica while I wash all those dishes!
So it looks like I'll have to miss the first half, but I'll absolutely be there Saturday and Sunday working both those nights.

That sucks. Sorry to hear about your bad luck. At least you get to go in some capacity though. What I wouldn't do right now for a little essence of 'Roo. I think I know the formula...let's see...I think it's:
2 parts Christmas anticipation 1 part hearing the perfect song 3 parts brushing up against a member of the opposite sex for the first time...and liking it!
and
5 parts first time you ever got drunk
Wish I could cook me up a batch, but I guess I'll have to be content watching it from home.

^^ Lovvve the equation, fhqwhgad
Sigh........
Alas, I made the decision to miss the first half of roo - - I'll head out on Saturday, and hopefully get there in plenty of time to catch PJ. I HATE that I'm missing Willie and Jack White. But I will go to the ends of the earth for Alison Krauss, so it will be ok.
And the reason why I'm having to miss two days of roo.....? I'm stuck finishing up some major neverending pain-in-the-ass homework projects for a class I thought would be SO fun & easy & perfect to take in the first half of Summer semester before roo.... "History of Rock & Roll" I kid you not. Isn't it ironic....
I am fucking missing two days of Bonnaroo because I have to finish up 55 pages of writing about the hundred greatest rock songs of all time, write a big final essay, & give a 15-minute presentation on Ray Charles.
Of course, I've known this & have been working like crazy since class started last month, I had even planned to have it all done a week early, but my lesson learned is: Don't ever take a brand-new, fun-sounding class where the teacher likely feels he needs to prove himself and his curriculum to the administration because you will likely be doing wayyyyy too much work!!!!
So, mine's: Word, PowerPoint, a 2-liter of Diet Mountain Dew and Thou
But I am SO glad to have all this new-fangled technology to keep us updated and stimulated! ;D
..And all the lovely people who surprisingly (or maybe not so much- coughmetallicacough) are here and not there, either! <3

Now that's dedication. Good luck with that and have fun. Some Roo is better than no Roo at all.
But I will go to the ends of the earth for Alison Krauss, so it will be ok.
