First time Roo go-er this year. How big are the tents, are they similar in size to that of the Mojave/Gobi/Sahara tents at Coachella? Also, do they have any screens? Roughly how many people would you say they hold? Thanks guys!

In past years they haven't had screens. It'd be nice one day. I don't know how they compare to the tents at Coachella. Someone else should be able to answer that.

Are the Dresden Dolls playing in this tent (pointing) that tent (pointing) or the other tent (pointing) is one of the best conversation I have ever had because they were pointed out of order it was my second year at Bonnaroo and I was out of my head.

i love the other tent. that hill is just wonderful. the shows ive seen there have been really easy to walk up and get a good spot without being rude.
i think i've spent most of my time at the this tent. it's fine by me but if you want to chill in the back you have a slight hill to deal with. makes it a little harder to see the stage.
that tent is just fine too. i like being able to sit on a picnic table and hear the music.
so to answer what i think you are wondering, you wont really have a problem hearing the music in the shade if you're committed enough.

As far as size goes, This Tent is the largest, followed by That and then Other. I don't think there is a huge difference in the three, but definitely some.
That is my favorite, can't really pinpoint a specific reason, I just like the set up and position the best. Other is cool, but if there is a lot of rain the areas around the stage and outer edges of the tent will be a huge muddy mess because of the trajectory of the land.

I usually enjoy tent shows better in general because A. you are usually up closer to the action. B. There is some shade C. and unless it is late night, you can get to and fro pretty easy.

Word. If there is two conflicting artists that I want to see at about the same level and one is one What and the other is in a tent, I will pick the tent artist 9 out of 10 times.

in comparison to the coachella tents, they are close to being the same size except none are as big as the sahara tent (i don't think...) that thing is massive.

I can only imagine they scheduled PORTUGAL THE MAN and MAN MAN in the same time slot to intentionally mess with everybody. . .
