Just some thought on what I heard and saw yesterday. Yesterday was my first day. I am a local that day parks and did not feel like trying to fight the traffic on Thursday. They first thing I noticed was there are not as many people here this year. Some of the areas where there are always people camping is just open grass. From there, I got in line for Conan tickets. This was an absolute clusterduck. About 30 minutes before they were to start giving out passes, people got out of line and just started to push to the front. Bonnaroo did not have the staff in place to handle the crowd. The festival got very lucky that no one got hurt in that mess. I got lucky and did get a ticket for Conan. It was a fun show; however, I was somewhat surprised there were no special guest. Umphrey's Mcgee and The National both put on great shows. From there i wonder over to catch the last hour of Tori Amos. Another good show, it was just her and a piano. The crowd for KOL was the smallest I have ever seen for a Friday headlined. I only could take KOl for 15 minutes before I fled and went to hear the Bakerton Group (very tight and good). My last show was the Black Keys, whom I thoroughly enjoyed.
Best Show: The National Worst Show: KOL Best line I over heard: Nudity at Bonnaroo is like looking at a National Geographic magazine.

Friday was by far the best day I had at the festival. I originally went in early to watch "Exit Through the Gift Shop" at the cinema tent and then get in line for CoCo tickets. After seeing the line had already started, I ditched the movie and got in line for tickets at 6 am. I was the 14th person in line. What can I say? Amazing show. Totally worth the wait even though the heat got oppressive around 11.
Loved The Gossip and LCD. The National was awesome. Matt Berninger is insane and wonderful.
