Oh, why not.
Name: Jessica Age: 19 Located: Tulsa, Oklahoma Occupation: Full time student; Psych major. Part time waitress. Height/Weight: Around 5'9", 135lbs give or take a few. Drink/Smoke: Yes/Yes, but never cigarrettes. :]
This will be my first Roo, and I'm scheduled to be a during-fest volunteer.
Bands I Will Not Miss: Just five? That isn't fair. Jack Johnson, Iron & Wine, Lupe Fiasco, Rilo Kiley, The Raconteurs, B.B. King, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Chris Rock, and so many more.
Really though, it just depends on my volunteer schedule. Hopefully I will luck out for a few of them.

First Roo!
I graduated from NYU with a degree in film last year and have thus far done very little with it, not for a lack of trying though. Turns out that's a pretty tough nut to crack. So currently I work at Ritz Camera developing pictures and am seriously considering grad school, law school and/or the Peace Corps while continuing my seemingly futile effort to break into the film biz.
Will not miss: Metallica (been desperately wanting to see them since I was 12, don't hate) Willie Nelson Zappa Plays Zappa Gogol Bordello Kanye Brian Posehn (I know it's not a musical act and it makes the list six, but that guy's at least seven types of hilarious)
Also, not to sound like too much of a tool, but does anyone know if Jakob Dylan will be doing any Wallflowers songs?
