new roo'er wondering what time the music starts thursday? we are getting down there early in the morning, but just wondering what time things get started that first day.
I was doing research on bands I'd never heard and found out that Sam Roberts band is scheduled to play Thursday at 1:00. I guess that means we have a full day of music on thursday

I get the feeling that's a sort of default "start" time for the festival, as it's not the first time I've seen that pop up, but I hope you're right about that.
Given the hypothetical expansion of main stage acts from around 80 to around 100, opening up Thursday makes sense. At least give us three full late nights so I can be completely dead come Monday...

I'd rather have more music late into the night thursday then earlier during the day! Since the VIP pre party wouldn't be much of a pre party if we were missing other music at the same time...i bet music still starts at 6-8, but more then 1 stage will play into the night (3-4am) Last year toubab krewe was the only one playing anywhere close past 1am? (if i recall correctly....I was under the influence, and it is bonnaroo.....but i remember that I was definitly thinking I could of heard more music late thursday! WHo needs sleep?

that's a great idea! they also haven't confirmed no where near enough bands to have a full schedule on thursday. when's the next addition!?
ya toubab krewe went late. i think they went until 145 or so. damn that was a good show. it does seem llike alot of bands are listed for thursday. i hope tea leaf green is in the toubab spot or a latenight. ive still got my fingers crossed for more on thursday. and im really hoping the music starts at noon. and while im wishing for things i hope they have music on wednesday night. but i really doubt that. i think it will be like last year. but i can still hope and wish!
but i remember that I was definitly thinking I could of heard more music late thursday! WHo needs sleep?
ya i agree. you can sleep when your dead. or on monday.
but there was some music on thursday latenight. giant panda guerilla dub squad is where i ended up. they were playing on a stage on shakedown st. silent diner also plays in the campground/shakedown area. im thinking we will get some more like that this year. you just gotta poke around!!

I think that Bonnaroo could totally pull off a fourth day. Last year, Wakarusa had artists play two sets on two different days, that's good because it gives you another chance to catch an act that you missed earlier due to schedule conflicts. Bonnaroo should do that too. I'm sure there are plenty of bands who wouldn't mind playing two different sets.

That would be excellent....especially with all the ridiculous Roo conflicts.
Not to be a downer or anything, but I would be sure they will not start the festival earlier on thursday. I think they would be telling us if they were going to. Why would they not say anything about it at ticket time. I sure would be mad if I would get there late thursday and music was already playing. Not everybody reads inforoo. This will not be a problem for me though since this is 4th Roo and I like to get there early.
I would plan on everything starting same time on thursday as past years.

This is the first year that they've officially dubbed it a four day festival. There are some who feel that it's simply acknowledgement that there's music on Thursday and they're just marketing that and there are others who feel that it's confirmation that they are expanding Thursday. Only time will tell but anybody who's pissed that they have music on Thursday after announcing that the festival starts on Thursday really doesn't have much of a leg to stand on.

a fellow inforooer emailed them and told them that he was making travel plans and asking for time off work and needed to know when the music would start, and the official reply was that the music starts friday at noon. we know that isnt true. superfly is crappy. so who knows what will happen. i dont think concern for their customers seeing music is at the top of their list of priorities.
id say its fair to be pissed when you send them an email asking a specific question so you can make plans and they outright lie to you.

dude, I got that cleared up by AC himself, and he admitted it was a mistake. He stated the auto response would be fixed and the music will start on thursday.
