i will be at roo for the third time this year and simply cant wait for the annual madness.
anywho, i was wondering about the daily newspaper they put out, the bonnaroo beacon. ive heard about it but never actually seen a copy...anyone know where can i pick it up at? i know they probably dont print a lot of them, but i think it would be pretty cool to get my hands on all four issues this year...or at least one. if all else fails i'll just keep my eyes out for a bonnaroo paper boy !
good luck all getting through the last full work week before roo 07! woohoo!!
I have never seen the paper either, but always heard about it. And phishinalong.......badass avatar! Trailer Park Boys is probably my favortie show of all time.
They drop off copies in lots of places- last year there was a pallate of them at the main entrance in addition to the usual places. I tend to grab one to read during the day and by the end try and collect a nice copy of each issue for the home archives.
It's pretty cool. It has any schedule changes, some decent (although at times poorly edited) articles and interviews, and it's always neat to see photography the next morning of the previous night's/day's shows.
There's a neat bit on it in the 2004 DVD about how they use a local newspaper's press to turn it around so fast.
We treat mishaps like sinking ships and I know that I don't want to be out to drift Well I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and They both tell me that we're better than this

Been every year and have yet to grab one. I've read some that other people have picked up, and they're pretty cool. Then I ask where they got em and get the inevitable "I don't know, man. I just picked it up somewhere." Yeah, thanks for the help.

They look like this. Got my mint copies from last year. Inside is the days schedule, many photos, interviews and music stuff. Worth the read. Hope the weather is the same this year.
I have all the Beacons from the last 3. I never miss them. They are great reading when I am in the shade getting some rest or chiling. Some good info that comes out daily. I look for the Beacon every day. The last 2 years I have brought copies home to my boss's son. He is 18 and wants to go some day.

i'm going to have to keep my eyes open this year - the only place i really saw them was near the press tent, but that was last year when i was lucky enough to cover b'roo.
