Hey if your family gives u crap about going to the 'roo just say it's a graduation gift to yourself. for a few weeks after u graduate U can't do no wrong(you are a god) kind of like when I got engaged I could do no wrong in my girls eyes for at least a few months then it wore off ......college ceremony sucks it's not like highschool where u know everyone. Most of my friends graduated on a different day.......go to 'rooo that u won't ever regret!!!!

I remember seeing a guy at teh Gomez concert in 04 that broke his parole to come down to Bonnaroo, so id say you almost have to go to Roo. That guy could have ruined his life for comin, you just started your life...not to put any pressure on you...
hahaha I would be very upset if someone chose a ceremony over a once in a lifetime celebration of music and life. Graduation represents the end of your education and Bonnaroo marks the beginning of a new one.
Seriously though. It would be awesome to see you out there with a cap and gown. But if its anything like what I wore....They're HOT AS HELL.

Not to sound like an ass, but if you payed for your college i wouldnt feel too bad about jipping your parents out a ceremony, if it comes down to that. But as mentioned, you may be able to walk at another time.

you can always do some type of open house or celebration dinner with the family before or after roo. No one really wants to sit through some boring ass ceremony anyway...not even grandma. They just want to celebrate your accomplishment.

That's a great idea. I absolutely hated my college graduation. It took FOREVER to call out those names and then we had to dodge traffic to get back to have a party! I say do what blazenhazen said!
If it makes you feel any better I'm not taking a summer class this year cause it conflicts with bonnaroo. so I'm gonna have to take an extra class next semester, but really worth it.

Like I said, if you're asking this question about whether or not you should go, it seems like you don't care that much about it. Go to Bonnaroo and wear your robe to the Masquerade ball.

same here.
unless you goto a small college where everyone there is close, i say skip. If it were me in that position, i would goto Roo without any hesitation.
I figure I only have a few years left to goto these festivals before i go out into the real world and find a real job. Gotta make the most of it.

If it isn't a big deal to your parents, the only reason to stick around for graduation are the multitude of afternoon kegs and barbecues on graduation day. I think people do a little bit of partying at bonnaroo. You'll be able to tell everyone that 70,000 people showed up at your graduation party, and Tool, The Police, et cetera decided to show up and jam. Congratulations on graduating, man.

HEADED TO BONNAROO!!!!
