Any Oxford American readers out there? If not check it out its a great Southern Literary Magazine. They put out a great music issue as well. Anywho its based on campus at the college I attend and I'm on the student team. For our final in the class I'm in we have to write an article for the upcoming music issue. We are required to write an article that has something to do with the southern music scene, an artist, song or show. One of our articles is going to be picked to be in the issue and I've got a few months to come up with something. I'm going to try my best to get my article published. I'm hoping to write an article on Bonnaroo. I'm still trying to decide how to approach it. Any suggestions would be welcome. If anyone has any stories they would like to throw out for ideas to be included into the article feel free please.
I definitely know the Oxford American. They did a screening of the The Best of the South DVD here in Fayetteville a couple of weeks ago. I got some free passes for that awesomeness from Art Amiss. Anywho, as for the article, since it's a Southern theme be sure to stick with it. Write about the NOLA tent, the typical Tennessee weather, the hospitality, and whatever else you can dig out of it including the awesome fact that it's on a farm. Yeah, it's a hippy love fest, but what beyond that signifies the culture of the South? If I were a cultural anthropologist and not an archaeologist, you better believe I'd be writing theses on Bonnaroo!

^^^true dat...look at all the a-holes who stole peoples stuff-
and hippy has the immediate response to categorize people who love the diverse music Bonnaroo represents. Only suggestion would be anecdotes of people who have been there and bands who have played there. That gives a true experience of what it is like
