Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Ben Harper & R7, Todd Snider, and moe. who I was able to skip at Roo, since they'll be there, and Dumpstaphunk is always great, been wanting to see Buckethead for a while, and Bassnectar was so great last year.
The whole line up is pretty damn great!
But why did I think Grace Potter was on the line up? I skipped her at Roo too.

^^^ After you get approval, order two tickets and some Christmas lights and buy a keg of Bud. Then take it over to LHR's the night before you leave. Things should work themselves out from there.
Unfortunately I won't be in on the camp inforoo. I'll promise to stop by for a while, so please make a post on the whereabouts that you'll be.
It might depend on when you arrive but my experience from last year was that they did direct you to a space and it seemed like there were two entrances that they pointed you to. There was one on the right side that took you to the camping areas up top on the right side of the mountain and the other was left, I think the main one. So I would try to meet up before you get in. I got there pretty late around 8-9pm thursday
I'll be watching over all of you from VIP, baby! For such a small fest, it's probably a little silly to go VIP....but after waiting 7 hours in line to get into Bonnaroo and being so far away (only because we had to zig zag around private property on bushy branch) and not drinking nearly as much beer as I wanted, we figured we'd try VIP this year.
The way we figure it, they open the GA gates at 5PM Thursday. They appear to let VIP check in at 10 or 11. Then 15 minute ride to the fest where hopefully they let us right in. So by the time anyone else is there, we've already been at the fest 8 hours. That is, if they let you in the gate right after you check in. I like to do a good amount of chilling under the ez-up at fests, so this should allow me to do that and not feel like such a waste. And I like to sit in the back at shows anyway, so why not at my tent in my own camp chair.
We're gonna try and be the first people at VIP check-in. I hear there are some dream campsites up on top of the hill.
Thanks for that photo, too. That's really the first shot I've seen of AllGood that shows the VIP area.

I'm pretty sure gates open at 2pm on Thursday, at least for early admission...
Please note: EARLY ARRIVAL ADMISSION IS ALLOWED AFTER 2:00 PM THURSDAY, JULY 9 FOR AN ADDITIONAL $20.00 ADVANCE and $30.00 PER PERSON AT THE GATE. THE GATE REMAINS OPEN 24 HOURS.

Weird. I swear the AllGood website has times flipped around in a couple of places. Here's the webpage where it says 5PM: www.allgoodfestival.com/buytickets.htm#EARLY **EARLY ARRIVAL CAMPING PASS All Ages (Early admission (1) night Thursday 7/9) Add to your Weekend pass for an extra night of camping and music at Campground Stage. - $20 in Advance and $30 at the Gate per person (including children over 3). - Early Arrival Pass allows for entry only into campgrounds and Campground Stage after 5:00 PM on Thursday, July 9.
...but 5PM makes no sense at all because why would they want you to come so late in the afternoon? 2PM makes much more sense.

Yeah, upon further investigation, apparently they start directing traffic at some point late Thursday. Still if a couple of people can manage to come in together and get set up, I think we can make this thing work. We may need to set up next to a road so late arrivals can drop off gear and park as close as possible and some may have to haul gear in on foot. But I will personally help anyone who needs me anytime I'm not working, which should be anytime after Thursday afternoon or maybe anytime Thursday and Friday. I'm looking into getting my schedule set for Wednesday and sometime after Friday.

Based on last year, I'm pretty sure it's written that way because the Campground Stage opens/starts music at 5PM. We were in line moving up the mountain no later than 1PM and set up by about 3PM
Somebody has it now, however as far as I know, they won't be at All Good. Bring yours. Anyone else who has one and is gonna be in Camp InfoGood is encouraged to bring theirs as well. The more flags the better.
We'll make a phone list next week. Get on that and you'll get a text or can text someone on the list for directions.
This should be done through PM. I don't want number posted on the web.
Goes without saying, here's the procedure:
1. post your SSN in this thread. 2. Homeland Security, who of course monitor this site, will initiate a background check which may in some cases be followed up by a brief "interview" possibly involving limited waterboarding. 3. Your phone number will be extracted during this process and discretely PMed to all others in the group who have been similarly vetted.

I think we may as well go ahead and start collecting cell numbers for the phone list. I know Claire is going to Rothbury in a few days, not sure if anyone else is, but in any case it won't hurt to go ahead and get started with that.
There are only a few people planning to camp at InfoGood so far, with a few others interested in meeting up over the weekend. I expect a few more to get aboard over the next few days. So if everyone who doesn't have a problem giving out their number to this small group only, would PM their numbers to me, I'll start the list.
Or if you'd rather not give it to the whole group, you could just give it to me or anyone else who posted about camp in this thread who you trust with a note not to give it out, and just get in touch with that person. But hopefully most of you will feel safe having your number in the list. It will not be posted on the board, just in a list to be PMed to those on the list. This has been done for Camp Inforoo at Bonnaroo in the past, with no problems that I'm aware of. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to PM me: bonnaroo.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=pmsend&to=southgajd
It would help if you use the subject "AG phone list" or at least some sort of appropriate subject other than "no subject"
Include your real name, Inforoo name, cell number, approximate time you expect to get there, how long you be able to stay (leaving Sunday night, staying till Monday) anything like a canopy, tarp, cooler to share, etc. you'll be able to contribute for group use, or any other info that may be helpful.
;D
