Welcome to the boards! You will have a blast at Bonnaroo. There is nothing like your first time. I'm a huge OCMS fan myself. Had to miss their last show in town because I broke my ankle and was in the hospital. The boards are awesome for finding out information about what to do, what to bring, how to survive, and anything else Roo related. Have fun!

Tacos are fuckin awesome. I mean I enjoy a good burrito or quesadilla, but nothing beats a crunchy taco with stuff spilling everywhere out of it and having to eat the last half with a fork (or your fingers if you are a fatty like me)

I try not to discriminate against any Mexican combination of meats & veggies inside of a tortilla, but taco is the quickest to type, so I just rolled with that. That said, I'm generally a late night 'rito guy.

Welcome to the boards! My great grandmother lived in Detroit, but she's dead now. I'm a huge Harry Potter need myself. I've probably read the series about 7 or 8 times. Seriously I'm a complete nerd. Like HP forums and I read fanfic and everything. You know how Bonnaroo works, but there is a plethora of information on the site.
And I also love Supertramp. Hoping to catch a Roger Hodgson show sometime before he decides to quit for good. I had the opportunity to see him back in 2010 but skipped because I'm an idiot.

seeduckswim come back so you can gloat! Take your victory lap!
Alright, Im here. To those who believed me, which probably only included my own mother, thanks for the support. To the rest of the people who wrote me off...
I TOLD ALL OF YOU.
See y'all on the farm! Cant wait (especially for Florence).
You, fellow inforoo-er have a gift. A talent of sorts. Who knows what to call it, but you deserve a cold alcoholic beverage of sorts and a victory lap because you almost called it.
Name: Miguel What my user name represents/means: Sparta - band from El Paso, TX, 890- numbers that happen to be right next to each other in the keyboard and coincidentally my birth month and year. From: El Paso, Texas Favorite Bands: The Strokes, Daft Punk (saw them in 2007 in Mexico City, best moment in my life), Cafe Tacuba, Gorillaz, Molotov, Ghost B.C. even then it's hard to answer that question. All I know is I won't be seeing the throat singer on the lineup this year. My All-Time Favorite Artist: Daft Punk Favorite Books: A clockwork orange Favorite Movies: 2001: A Space Odyssey and most of Kubrick's movies. I'm also a fan of Guy Ritchie and Tarantino Favorite TV shows: Trailer Park Boys, Party Down, Futurama, Simpsons, Bob's Burgers First Concert Attended: Vanessa Mae in Mexico City when I was I think like 6 years. Last Concert Attended: Hurricane Festival in Scheessel, Germany in June Bonnaroos Attended: 2015 Bonnaroo Wishlist: I'll be honest I've seen most of the headliners, the thing that has got me going is the mid-tier or undercard bands as well as the people of bonnaroo. I've heard great things about the experience and people at the festival. A few bands wouldn't hurt so I would like to have FIDLAR, the Orwells, SebAstian or Breakbot.
Hey all, been lurking for a couple of years. Even made an account last year but never ended posting with it. So here's my obligatory first post / introduction! Name: Brady What my user name represents/means: Inspired by drumstep DJ Figure. From: New Hampshire Favorite Bands: Bassnectar, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Streetlight Manifesto, Have Heart My All-Time Favorite Artist: Bomb The Music Industry Favorite Movies: Fear and Loathing, Super Troopers, Requiem for a Dream First Concert Attended: Disturbed, Stone Sour, Nonpoint. Manchester, NH, Fall 2006 Last Concert Attended: Bassnectar New Year's Eve 2014-15, Nashville, TN Bonnaroos Attended: 2013, 2014 Wishlist: One more dancey EDM act. I feel like Odesza, Flying Lotus, Flume, Caribou, and even Rustie to an extent, all play a very shoegazey, chill brand of electronic. Was really bummed when the RL Grime rumors ended up not being true. Also praying for no Bassnectar / Slayer / STS9 conflict.
