OK so this will be my third Roo this year, and I'm supremely excited for it, but I have a question....
I could have sworn that I saw somewhere on this board or elsewhere something about there being some kind of open mic time at Bonnaroo, like in one of the vendor tents or something (like....or whatever, and stuff). Does this exist in any form that you all know of? I know this is definitely the place to get this answered.
Also, I know I'm a new poster, but yes, I tried to search and could only find one very old thread in the Solar Stage, which I didn't think was as appropriate a location for this question. I'm not really trying to get one started, I just want to know if one already exists.
And lastly, if there IS an open-mic area, it's not just for music right? My interest in this is as an amateur stand-up comedian (note the extremely clever username). We're always looking for different places to get stage time, and Bonnaroo in any capacity would be awesome.
They've DEFINITELY done an open mic before in addition to the live band karoake, usually they'll release that info under "activities and attractions" on the website. My guess is keep checking for that or even email someone at bonnaroo asking about it. I'm not very good at playing music but would consider getting up there. I actually have a friend going down whose band tried to get in, in the book a band contest
Didn't the VW Garage a couple of years ago have a place where a band (and maybe singer) could play? they would let them play for 10 or 15 min at a time ?
