Hi, all.
I just voted for #10 as the best choice available. If I could, I'd also vote to include the longer quote on the back.
As for color, that yellow seems to pop much better against a darker green (see the coozie), so if it were possible, I'd vote for a slightly darker green than is shown on t-shirt #10.
Kudos to all the designers, there are some cool creations here!
I like the font on the front of 10 for inforoo. It is hard to read on the back, however. I guess I'm the odd one out on the quote. I like the simpler, less heady "ain't no place I'd rather be.."

i prefer that quote as well, easier to read on the fly
Hey guys and gals, i've been over on the Bonnaroo listserv for since 2004, my name over there is The Lawyer. Anyway, I noticed you're all talking about t-shirt designs, etc. I originally came up with the quote "Reality is a condition caused by the absence of Bonnaroo" back in 2004. Regardless of which great shirt design you pick, i'm asking that the designer please credit me and use my name as part of the quote . We did something similar to this on the Bonnaroo listserv the last few years, it's a great idea. Thanks .

If we go with that quote ,then we shall put that on the shirt. I didn't know it was an actual quote. Thanks for the heads up
Love it Laura! If "reality is the absence of bonnaroo" shouldn't it follow that "bonnaroo is freedom from lawyers and judges"? Are they not the only ones imposing reality on the rest of us? Just a question... Tend to like freedom of ideas... Good quote though!
Bonnaroo isn't freedom from lawyers or judges because I'm a lawyer, I went to Bonnaroo 3 times and best of all: If people did what they were supposed to, we as lawyers would be out of business. Many people would like that very much. When you speak of lawyers and judges "imposing reality", that sounds oddly fascist and existentialist, can you elaborate? lol.

I'm still new here and I am really excited about the shirts and all.
I will buy two shirts of whatever the winning design is, but I really would prefer the shirt not to have a saying on the back that must be cluttered up with quotation marks and attributed with the name of the person who first came up with the saying. I don't know Mr. Pechow and don't want his name on my shirt.
I am wondering if there is a copywrite on that phrase and if not, maybe you should get one if you wish to maintain ownership of the saying.
I hope you are not offended by what I say, I am not trying to cause trouble. I am just disapointed that something fun has now turned into something legal.
I created #3 and I am rather ambivalent about the quote. I like it, but maybe not so much on the back of a shirt. I have this thing with too many words on my shirts...
Oh yeah, design #10, when did you stop beating your wife?

Ditto.
It's a fun quote and I'm sure Mr. Pechow is a good guy, but do we really want to see the tee acting as a miniature billboard for someone who's not even involved with Inforoo™? I for one could do without the quote. Or maybe we could just go with...
"Inforoo is a condition caused by a lack of Bonnaroo."
For real though, count me in as someone who can do without a quote.

i vote for no quote, it was originally NOT in my design, so i say lets leave it out. if anything, having the year on the back would be different, so we know its the 2007 edition of the Inforoo tee. (?)
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!
I don't know if Jeff Pechow has acquired a copyright to his slogan, but since he is a lawyer I would advise that we change the slogan so as not to seem like plagiarists. How about if we use "ain't no place I'd rather be" and underneath that "Roo 2007?"
