I know they have some stuff like the "Fire on the Midway" and the Bobbleheads and the graffiti walls but it just seems to lack art for being a music and art festival.
I hope they step it up a little this year. Anyone agree?
Also if you have a minute post up some other artistic things at Roo that I didn't put down
a lot of the vendors have all kinds of art for sale. there are also belly dancers, th bonnaroo buskers, and so many other performance arts things. plus alot of the bands have very nice visual shows that i consider art. but there could be more for sure.
holy S!!!! Neighborhood Creep, some of those pictures you posted are fantastic. I would some more decorations/art work like they had at Rothbury. Sherwood Forest was great.

Maybe not more art, but different art? Seems like it's been the same for a while. I'd take more on top of what's been there for a while too, though. Of course, it would take a lot to beat Sherwood.

I thought about getting different people to help us paint our tent this year. By tent, I mean a huge WHITE car port type thing made out of canvas that has white canvas/tarp walls on all sides. Wouldn't that look amazing??

They need to do something else with the Mushroom Fountian. The black and white Esherian thing isn't the great.
They need to bring back the sonic forest - why would the stop doing in the first place?
The smoke-ring machine wasn't in full effect the last two years. I asked the operator and he said its not worth doing if there is any amount of wind.
They could definitely add some more weird interactive stuff like that have at the 'Cella.
My group and I had a great time playing in the "Hay Forest" out in the campgrounds last year on Sunday night after WSP. - Thanks to whoever made that thing.

i think what we should all do as a roo community is bring the art OURSELVES and not rely on bonnaroo for it!!!! that is to say, I, personally will be bringing goodie goodie funtime art projects for those in my camp (and whoever else wanders by and asks! (provided there are sufficient materials!!))
To me the most impressive art at Bonnaroo are the people in themselves! every person that attends (and everyone on earth for that matter) are perfect pieces of art. just LOOK around and every single person you see brings something quite interesting.
however what i would really enjoy would be one of those funtime/mcdonalds tube set things that little kids go through, only for adults!!! bring the kid back in all of us

As far as performance art goes.... I stumbled (pretty much literally) upon this Belly Dancing show last year... Saturday, latenight on the solar stage. It was mindblowing.. live band in the background and this woman did a dance with wings that were on fire, then there was a synchronized dance with six girls doing this formation that looked like Shiva and proceeded into an absolutely enchanting routine. oh man... there are no words.

the thing is i appreciate the art a lot better than i actually make it, so...
