I think I'd be more likely to stop and watch some riverdance type shit than b-boys. I can see myself going "...what are they doing?? and why...???" lol

I think if they just brought some better hip hop, a b-boy stage would be formed automatically. Lupe Fiasco and Talib Kweli (especially Kweli) are great performers but for break dancing you really need some folks like KRS, gangstarr or someone like that. Or...Get some good hip hop djs back. Id still like to keep djs like mstrkrft or girltalk around and maybe bring some new djs like Justice or somebody, but i'd like to see the more hip hop influenced djs like z-trip, x-ecutioners, Mix Master Mike or DJ Jazzy Jeff (you can laugh if you want but he can still rock a f*cking party).
KRS definitely needs to be there though. His shows are still unbelievable.
Honestly, I think Bonnaroo needs an electronica/DJ tent before they need a hiphop stage, but that's just me...
why does there have to be a designated tent for any genre? Its all music, dont sort it. Having a hip hop tent or any specific genre would just make it harder for some people to be exposed to a new genre. Lets say you dont like hip hop (a stupid statement because you may not like Lil Jon or Lil Wayne but you could love Atmosphere or the Roots. If there were a hip hop tent though and you were one of those people that say they dont like hip hop then you would never be exposed to something you may actually love. Leave it the way it is, without designating tents to genres.
*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.**

What he said ^^
I've always felt Roo was the place to expose yourself to different genres and music. If you end up just hangin out at the DJ tent for half your Roo experience, what's the difference between that and ravin it at home? I know you might greatly enjoy it, but get out there and discover something you have never seen/heard, or something you may never see/hear again. Your at Bonnaroo for christ sakes, get out and be somebody! ;D
This thread has started a conversation that I wasn't expecting due to my bad wording....I really wasn't purposing a stage for b-boys, but just saying I would like to see some b-boy acts somewhere in centeroo....
i almost went to lollapalooza. never even thought about going to roo.
and as far as fests are concerned roo is much more in the coachella and lollapalooza category then with real fests anymore. i guess i can throw langerado in there now too. are we sure that superfly didnt buy langerado??
