i dont get why a festival that hippies and headies used to love for 4 or 5 years will always suck now because of one or two years of multi genres. is Phish not awesome enough to restore their faith in the festival that used to be considered heaven on earth?
but seriously only 6,000 or so people at the most really post on these forums out of the actual 80,000 people or so that go to bonnaroo. even if you say people's opinions here are split 50/50 thats only 3000 or so folks that dont want phish at roo. this is a shot in the dark since i cannot speak for people i dont know but i'd say out of the other tens of thousands of people that go to roo, the general consensus would be to get phish to play the farm. cant say for sure though.
damnit! i hate missing a good argument. i love how people are talking about the contracts superfly has with phish that say no other fests. its funny poop. these mythical contracts for this mythical line up. did zeppelin make that agreement too? i still say its way more likely that jay-z or guns n roses will play then phish. and if phish does play i doubt they would sign anything that would limit them to playing roo and only roo. its phish. after last year superfly would floss with treys brownish red butt hairs to have phish save roo. they arent going to be giving them silly clauses. its phish. and if they play roo it seems to me it would be more likely that they would play other fests too or atleast have their own fest and not sign some ridiculous clause with roo. and i still say its crazy talk. phish isnt going to play roo. what now that rolling stone mentioned it as a rumor its more likely??? lol phish rumors with roo happen every year. and led zeppelin was playing last year. and mtv bought it. the excitement of the phish reunion has got ya all buying into it. its really pretty laughable. its far more likely that we will finally see another fest happening on the roo farm and that this fest will feature phish. maybe in september. but hey maybe its true. if so ill see you there. (i know your all excited for that) and if phish is on tour and playing fests then i dont see why they cant play 10klf, echo, or rothbury. sure they cant have 100,000 people but if there is a tour and 3 or 4 phests they dont need to hold 100,000. maybe theres not much talk about that type of thing happening but that dosent mean poop. i think its more believable that phish is goin to do a 3 night stand in my back yard then it is that superfly has contracts with all sorts of silly clauses that phish wouldnt agree to. and why would superfly even ask for something like that???? if phish plays roo it sells out no matter what. it dosent matter if phish is playing rothbury 2 weeks after roo and 10klf 2 weeks after that. they will all sell out easily. it just dosent make any sense. all of these rumors is pretty funny and hard to believe if you ask me. which im sure no one did. but there ya go anyhow.
btw- its good to see the opinion police are still on patrol. i thought maybe without me keeping them on their toes that an opinion differing from theirs might have fallen through the cracks.
Once again, The Dude shows what a f*ckin moron he is. Let me guess, you've never seen Phish either? You are clearly completely unaware that Phish is managed by Coran Capshaw and Red Light Communications, who are heavily involved in Bonnaroo. AND LOL at Phish playing 10K lakes. You're a grade A idiot, Dude, why you even come here when you hate Bonnaroo so much makes me laugh. You just come to spout hippified nonsense encrusted with granola that is anti-Bonnaroo at all turns.
The pretendica hippies like Keith make me laugh so f*cking hard. They think they know what is best for Phish and Bonnaroo etc. etc. Granola all the way. Forget that it's a business, put the hippie mentality first. What these pretendica hippies always ALWAYS miss is that neither Phish nor Bonnaroo cares about what hippies think. Both want to create a genuine music experience in which people from all walks of life can embrace.
If you don't get that, you flat out don't get Phish or Bonnaroo.
Thank you for writing this for me, saved me lots of time!
Keith, for a little while you amused me. But lately you've really just become a troll. A number of the statements you made in your post prove you have no idea what you are talking about.
Things like "and if phish does play i doubt they would sign anything that would limit them to playing roo and only roo. its phish . . . they arent going to be giving them silly clauses. its phish."
Apparently you have not read Phish's concert rider, it is fully of silly clauses. Moreover, these kinds of clauses are common practice in many cases. All the members of Phish love Bonnaroo, and they want to play the festival (whether you like it or not), and they will agree to the terms set forth by Superfly (since their management is in bed together anyway). Phish doesn't care what a half-literate faux-hippie writes on the internet. They care about making music and making money. Playing Bonnaroo lets them do both, maintain their integrity, and blow-up the biggest music festival in North America. Why wouldn't they want to do that? (please note, that question was rhetorical, and I actually have no interest in hearing your opinion on the matter)
But you are entitled to your opinion, even if it is wrong and ignorant. What is really troubling is that you only post on this message board to instigate arguments. Every other post of yours is bashing Bonnaroo, or spouting of nonsense about why Phish won't be there, or claiming that you think [insert pop music act] will be headlining next year. You think Bonnaroo has sold-out - we get it. I guess I wouldn't care if you posted other places on the boards. If you had something positive to say about the festival. If you actaully showed interest in Bonnaroo other than just bashing it. But you don't, you just come here to get your hate on and then leave. All you do is nay-say and rain on everyone's parade. You mask the whole thing behind this guise of "oh, i just like a good argument . . haha .. its just an opinoin dont bee the opinon police man". But that is bull.shit. If you enjoyed a good argument, you would be more articulate and coherent with your posts. You would concede when you got something wrong, or your opponent makes a good point. But no, all you do is rant and run away. That makes you a troll.
You don't want to buy into the Phish at Bonnaroo rumors? fine. I really don't care. But please, stop being a troll.

^^aww come on, mojo. You know nobody could survive being stuck in their tent until Saturday night. Are you just trying to suffocate him before he gets to see Phish? ;D
O.K. I have to say that I have never really understood the whole Phish thing. But, I also will admit that I have never given them a chance. I've only ever heard a couple of their songs.
That being said, I am so committed to having as much fun at 'Roo this year as I did last year, that I am dedicating myself to listening to an entire Phish CD every day, Monday through Friday for the next six months.
Since I already bought my VIP tickets, I am hell-bent on being a Phish Phan by June. Come hell or high water.
dont worry about all that, just make sure you know the meatstick dance by june

Someone needs to write up an article so I'll know how to behave when I go to Phish's shows at Bonnaroo next summer.
Put 20 bucks in your front pocket, get your drugs together, go into the show with nothing important to you on your person. Then just smile smile smile.

Man, you to learn how to play nice and calm the f down. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't "flaming members" against the quidelines? Man, with your attitude, I don't know how you haven't been banned

I have to say that I am very excited that Phish will be headlining 'Roo this year. Though I am not much of a fan I am happy for the many Phans and will definitely be seeing at least one of their shows. I also like that 'Roo is seemingly making an attempt to recognize its roots by featuring one of the great jam bands of all time. It will be very exciting for me personally to see a band that has such a deep following and that is very historically significant. Count me in.
Also, I was wondering if someone could tell me which of their two sets to attend assuming they have a headliner slot and a latenight?

He hasn't gotten banned cause he's right. Dude is a troll. But one that we just tolerate for the most part. I think we should all know by now to just ignore his incessant blathering about the downfall of Roo. It's amusing sometimes, but the majority of the time it's just annoying and unnecessary.
So yeah, Phish. Here's a video from nearly 20 years ago!!!.......

I'm sorry. I haven't seen Dude personally insulting anyone on the board.

this is true. dude, ive put up with a lot of your crap on this board for a long time. ive tried to ignore it, and argue, but its pointless. ive managed to restrain myself up until now only by a monumental showing of raw will power, however i cant no longer contain myself. i don't like myself for what im about to do, and i wish there was another way, but i just dont see one.
so im sorry, but dude, im gonna have to smite you. hopefully after this you will have learned your lesson and it will be the last time.
