Well this years Bonnaroo really opened me up so much new music, and it was you fellow inforooers that did that. If you know of any acts that may be roo worthy I would love to check them out so I can get my "new" music knowledge ready! for example, I had not listened to Ghost Land observatory till someone said they might play roo and we should check it out! I am not looking for the large mainstream acts.
As my Inebriated buddy walks out of the Porto, he yells out, "Dude...I love this place...bonnaroo thinks about everything...they even put beer holders next to the toilet!"
Had to break it to him that that was the urnal. Good times good times!

Well...they couldn't play roo because they aren't together anymore....but they are my favorite band of all time and I recommend them to anyone and everyone. Talking Heads...start with "The Name Of This Band Is The Talking Heads"

Explosions in the Sky - earth is not a cold dead place Les Claypool "Live Frogs" live albums Mike Gordon's new CD Todd Snider - amazing singer songwriter; get "East Nashville Skyline" Wilco - Sky Blue Sky
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**

don't think any of these bands have done Roo (could be wrong...)
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Dig Lazarus Dig!!! Dexateens - Lost and Found Wooden Shjips - Wooden Shjips Great American Taxi - Great American Taxi Delta Nove - The Future is When Band of Horses - Cease to Begin
I'll second the Todd Snider recommendation. He's amazing. East Nashville Skyline is his best studio album but a better representation of who he is would be "Near Truths and Hotel Rooms", his live album.
Here are some others along with album recommendations:
Jason Ringenberg "All Over Creation" Tommy Womack "There I Said It" Webb Wilder "Hybrid Vigor" Bobby Bare, jr. "From the End of Your Leash" Man or Astroman "Live Transmissions"
The Mountain Goats (take your pick, the newer the album, the higher the fidelity and production) Jeffery Lewis (city/ eastern songs, It's the ones who've cracked that the light shines through) Dan Bern (Breathe) Silver Jews (Anything by these guys is great) Destroyer (Streethawk: A seduction) Of Montreal (Skeletal Lamping)

Ive been hearing great things about Silver Jews.
I'd have to recommend Satanic Panic in the Attic and Hissing Fauna, Are you the Destoryer? as well for Of Montreal albums.
