I missed this because I was at the Superjam until a little after 3 AM, then got tired and went back to the site for some sleep. What was it? Was it an "old-superjam"/random people play together act? Costumes? Was it the first one? Anyone got any good photos? Thanks again fellow inforoovians!

In 05 they had the place HOPPIN CRAZY. They blew into a raging Immigrant Song at the end and everyone just exploded. One of my all time fav bonnaroo moments.

My friend and I have made it a priority to check this out next year. We were too busy at the late night shows to go (plus we didn't have a costume) but this time we're bringing a costume for that and we might dress up as something completely wacky for one of the normal days too because....well hell, why not? It's Bonnaroo.
i was so pissed i missed the ball last year when i heard about who played in it. not that i regret doing superjam>sasha but i wish they had the ball at a more opportune time!
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!

In terms of just dressing up wacky for bonnaroo...if any of you see a couple of pirates walking around any one of the days you might just find me.
I never made it to the masquerades, but in my opinion the masquerade ball is well worth missing a latenight. I would give anything to basicaly be at a party where the guys from UM and moe. are raging. Latenight sets are amazing but if you think about it, you can catch a show from whatever that band may be some other time. The masquerade band is a one time deal. Of course if you favorite band is playing a latenight then it's a different story. I never hurts to bring a costume so you can at least check it out.

I think Im going to dress up not only for the ball, but for late night sets too... Im thinking lots of things that glow, on top of a ton of flourescent clothing, and a peacock feather mask.... Its going to be a blast. ;D

Just go for an hour, that will be all you can handle if you know what I mean. Trust me it is nuts. Like you wont stop smiling the whole time. Life will be too good to be true at the time. And it didnt get rediculously crowded in it last year, you could walk around comfortabley. Just gotta get your mind right. I went straight over to the Silent Disco right after that and had a blast and then over to sasha and then the sun was up!! Best night of Bonnaroo 06 for sure. Plese dont miss the Ball and prepare yourself for it. Take the extra day or two to get a decent little costume together and you will be really glad you did when the night of the Ball comes, Trust me!!! Have fun and be Careful in that place it gets NUTS!! Bwuahhaaahaaahaaaa!!!

Just a correction to a previous post, Rob didn't play bass at the ball, it was Jim Laughlin moe.'s percussion/multi-instrumentalist. Other than the percussion, he plays accostic guitar, and piccalo bass (see Kyle's Song) on a bunch of moe. tunes, and he just switched to regular bass for that show.

I'm confused. is this a concert, a party, or both? And do you have to dress up to attend?
It's a late night mystery show, very small, in a tent, mystery band and yeah, it's a party for sure. It's a masquerade ball, so you definately need a mask at least.

Here a shot from 2006 ball before the band came out. That's about the full crowd in that shot too so you can see how intimate the show gets. Crazy. . .but intimate.
