Some of us are insane planners, MofroHead. Additionally, I'll have to spar with the powers-that-be to get those days off work because of work conferences and fancy pants dinners.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the craziness that you have at work in June. I guess most of the researching, planning, and buying of supplies was the big time consumer last year. This year, you'd be pretty much set.

Someone on the board was industrious enough to find the dates of Roo 2009 on the security company's website last December. I promptly requested the days off.... therefore, I planned almost 7 months ahead of time. I feel ya, insidejoke!

They really should annonce the dates earlier. Many people, at one time including myself, have to bid for vacation at their job way in advance. for me it was bidding in early november for the entire following year.
oh man got super excited when I saw Bonnaroo 2010! Im already trying to get a crew together! Everyone in my salon knows that if they try to request off for that week Im going to meet them after the salon closes in the parking lot!
I finish my nursing school in December, so I have no idea how my employment will affect 'Roo planning. At least I live fairly close, but going to school Friday this year (three hours late, mind you) kicked my ass when I tried to do late night, and I don't want to repeat that fo' sho'!

good thing about college jobs... my bosses know and accept that i will walk out before i miss bonnaroo in june. and the boss who makes the schedule's little sister is probably going to be part of my group this year. they know i started my dreadlocks when i did partially so that they would be locked up by roo. shouldnt be a problem for me.
Have the dates been set? In concrete? If so, I'm going to request off work this week...10 months in advance!
Bonnaroo is typically the second weekend in june. i.e. after school lets out so all the teachers, and parents can go. It will be announced around Christmas time, but you can bet pretty solidly that is when it will be. If for some reason you are wrong you should have plenty of time to fix the problem.

2nd weekend in June is a pretty safe bet (always been that before.)
That's what the Countdown thread is based on. 260 days to go!
A pretty good way to find out is to go to any of the area hotels (online) and book dates through their reservation area. I booked a room for Roo 2010 in the same hotel as 2009 and the room rates are 3x higher for that thur-sun when compared to every other week. June 10-13. I have actually done this the last few years and it always works out.
^^ Seem like a good plan. But I wonder if the hotels are also guessing at the dates, too? It's likely they would have higher rates for the second weekend in June 2010 based on their rates/numbers from the second weekend in June 2009.... that's how a lot of companies project their numbers/prices, based on the same time in the previous year.

Bahaha, he had such a dead look in his eyes that I thought he was a drooling, catatonic Homer. My bad. Continue being awesome, then.

I don't think it has always been the second weekend. I believe it's been the third weekend as well once or twice.
I'm hoping it's the third weekend this summer as I have first year grad. school comps June 10 and if 'Roo falls during the second weekend I'll have to miss out (talk about heartbreaking; Roo's become a summer staple for me).
