hahaha i was walking around with one of my friends and we were trying to figure out where someone was gonna be playing, so my friend asks me "hey is that this tent?" and some dude walks buy and is just like "no this is that tent." and walks away ahahaha
i dont like the which stage... unless i am veryvery close... i was really excited for the flaming lips, but was disappointed by the sound in 07. as for my favorite i really love the other tent, because you are pretty much always close & the best memory i have of roo is 07 watching sasha and john digweed.. i hadnt been to the other tent the whole time and while i was walking back to my tent i got pulled by the music to the stage and didnt leave until about sun up... amazing amazing times.

What Stage is definitely my favorite...I dont really care for the tents that much because Its always so super crowded that its either deal with my claustrophobia or just sit beneath a tree and just listen to it. I love the what stage because no matter how far back you get the sound is always killer and when they use the screens you can watch no matter how far back you are....

come to think of it I also love the sonic stage! In 06 I got to see umphrey's, moe, and blues traveler there. I got really close at the moe and umphreys set and absolutely loved it. In fact that when I was first blown away by umphreys mcgee......

Mike Doughty on Sonic Stage in 2006 was a big highlight
I actually like the Which Stage. Probably my favorite performance area of the lot, to be honest. I've only seen three shows there, though - My Morning Jacket, Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings, and Death Cab for Cutie. What Stage is the one I can't stand. It's always way too crowded and I feel like I'm just looking at a TV screen most of the time.

Firs timer here, quick question Do most people kind of just move around Centeroo and see the acts they want to see or do they stay in one place? just curious. I am used to walking around and seeing the bands I want to see
Mmmm Silent Disco. I love that one too, but I think my favorite is the other tent. What stage is quacking awful during the day but at night it seems to be ok. Maybe because the sun isn't slow roasting me.

I usually make some sort of schedule before I enter Centeroo. Then I just wander around or nap until each show.
I had to go with the other tent. Its the most intimate place to see an artist on the farm in my opinion. The scenery is beautiful, with a few trees providing wonderful shade to relax in. I can always see the stage, even from out there. I loved laying out and watching DSO and the crowd last year. Also seems to always have good folk music there. Gillian Welch was great in 07 and the bluegrass allstars and levon helm in 08. I seem to think Ween played there in 07 but i could be wrong on that. Chali 2na with galactic last year was another good one! My memory is a little vague on where some bands played. That Tent is probably where i have seen some of my favorites. STS9, Disco Biscuits, GRAB, Lee Boys, Robert Randolph, Zappa, and the Les-Gogol superjam. Phil acoustic 08 and Govt Mule 07 were amazing in This Tent but i just dont enjoy that venue as much.
I'm pretty sure MMJ played That Tent in '06 so it's gotta be that one. Whichever Tortoise played in '07 (The Other?) is probably second. I dunno how you guys keep track of which is which.

Does anybody remember the "Sonic Forest" It was there in 05 i believe. Well anyway, what was the name of the tent directly to the right of it? Karl Denson played late night whatever night Trey played. I had a veryyy good time that night!
And super-close to the beer. It's also less dusty than This tent and I've never been bothered by other stages. The Other Tent is just too close to the disco, esp when the quieter bands are playing during the day. Plus Ween Played in it twice.

Although Which Stage has had my favorite shows (Flaming Lips, White Stripes, etc), I think I enjoy the tents more. Either This or That, doesn't bother me any.
As far as tents go I'm partial to That Tent. STS9, Back Door Slam, Lez Zeppelin etc. I like the What stage just because during the headlining shows it seems that the whole Bonnaroo community has gathered there, like its the place to be.
Where is the THIS TENT love... always good bands there and it's in the ideal spot in between small act heaven of the OTHER and Big Name action of WHICH...

I like That tent, but I gotta go with the What Stage for that sound system. It's fucking amazing. The Raconteurs were sooo loud last year, it was great.
i dont like the which stage... unless i am veryvery close... i was really excited for the flaming lips, but was disappointed by the sound in 07. as for my favorite i really love the other tent, because you are pretty much always close & the best memory i have of roo is 07 watching sasha and john digweed.. i hadnt been to the other tent the whole time and while i was walking back to my tent i got pulled by the music to the stage and didnt leave until about sun up... amazing amazing times.
Sasha and john digweed was definitely one of my favorites too. I will never forget that show, the lights, the people and the walk home from it as the sun was rising and I had a smile ear to ear.
