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!!
I wonder hows it going to be in like a month when the post Bonnaroo glow has finally faded and it sets in that we have to wait another year before the best holiday all year. Who cares if they get mainstream bands to headline, the beauty of Bonnaroo is that everyone comes together for a love of music and the friendships and community that are established because of this one mutual love.
Anyway, the point I am getting at, is how is it going to be in like 2 weeks or a month when this glow has faded off? I wonder if inforoo will still be here, reminiscing and discussing so I can have my hours of distraction while at work. Or will people just start to fade off and stop logging in until the winter when the line up is announced and the tickets go on sale?
Just like I got sad when leaving Bonnaroo and the community and good vibes there, I am sad that inforoo will soon fade off too and then I'll have to wait another year without someone to share it with.
That's my peace for the night (and I am slightly intoxicated, but this just struck me and made me horribly sad) Wondering if anyone else feels the same way?

There were people here all year long last year - it's certainly not as busy from July - December though.
I actually didn't find Inforoo until I came back from my first Bonnaroo but there was still enough activity, great people, and useful information that it kept me coming back. It got hopping again around December when early bird tickets went on sale (which is the only reason I knew about them!).
I already feel down having no tickets for any future concerts to look forward.
Not much coming around here either, only shows I may get tickets for are Modest Mouse & Weird Al. Also trying to convince the wife that we should go to Lolla for a day to see Modest Mouse & Pearl Jam.

It's a paradox. Time kills and heals all things. You'll stop frantically checking the board eventually. That is, until late November when we start looking at web sites and articles to predict who's playing next year.

Actually, I'll be on year-round. I don't have much else to do but discuss my favorite weekend of the year with some of the coolest people I've never really "met".

The excitement of Bonnaroo is going to stick in my head forever. Every time I look through pictures, or see my wristband, or even hear a Flaming Lips album I think back to what a great time I had and get all giddy again. The great thing about Roo is unlike anything else, memories are more than enough to put a smile on my face even on the roughest of days.
And "wasting" time on Inforoo will always be my favorite thing to do at work all year round.
Yeah, I guess I just find it sort of sad that the only place you can really find such an awesome group of people is at Bonnaroo. I live in MA so for the most part, everyone is pretty focused on themselves, but the community at Bonnaroo was just terrific. I wish it could be everywhere.
