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!!
^ For those not familiar with Chicago, I highly recommend you looking up Berlin before going to that show. Berlin is a very unique club, and anything goes in there. Expect man on man, woman on woman, man on woman, tranny on tranny, man on tranny and woman on tranny action in there. That being said, it is a super fun place to rage hard until 5am!

So this is my first lolla since they expanded to the west side of Columbus drive, just how big are Perry's and the Google Play stages? Perry's appears to be a tent? Is there room for full stage set-ups now?
So yeah..I definitely just won 2 passes for the weekend. Of course, I won the other contest that is just passes but no transpo or airfare! I was so excited, until the reality of me affording the trip (from philadelphia) so last minute set in. Do you guys see me being able to sell them?
She asked for my address though, so I believe they are sending them to my house. It's just a matter of just how fast. The radio station is local though.
There are plenty of inforoo peeps gonna be there who im sure would let you crash on a hotel floor. And have you looked into megabus? Can be really cheap. Dont sell your tickets, GO!

You know, I want to Phi! My dreams are being crushed as we speak. I looked though..no Megabus option from Philly to Chi-town. Cheapest flight option I found was $280 per person (which wasn't soo bad) but I don't even get paid again until the day before. Meh.

There are a lot of inforoosters that will be there. So it's not like you'd be all alone. Though if you're not familiar with Chicago it might feel a little crazy coming here alone.
You have two tickets right? Sell one and that will pay for your travel expenses.
That's a good point that actually hadn't even crossed my mind. I've never done a trip or festie solo though, so I don't know how I feel about it. I wanted to bring my brother. Unfortunately, he just graduated college, and he's in even worse shape. Hmmm..I guess it's something I might have to consider.

Lolla isn't like most festivals in recent years the crowd has not been as friendly as bonnaroo. Everyone goes with their group of friends and socializing with other people really isn't a big thing, which really sucks. So if you decide to go, try to meet up with some inforoo people.
The best way I can describe it is that Bonnaroo is a festival and Lollapalooza is a block party.

I could see that. It's why Roo is the best IMO.
After speaking with my brother, I've decided to make an effort to sell them at face value or less if I have to, and then put the money towards Made in America in Philly (which I was planning on getting tickets for anyway). Thanks for everyone's advice..and also for helping me attempt to win the bigger contest. You guys have fun and enjoy your incredible lineup. I will be seeing you at Roo 13.

I met a lot of friendly people at Lolla last year. They may not all be as friendly as Roo, but it's not like Lollapaloozans are jerks. It really just depends on who you meet.
And wow, you're like a walking, talking infomercial to turn people away from Pearl Jam and Ohio State, aren't you? Before you started posting here I quite liked Pearl Jam and was indifferent towards OSU, now I find myself wishing that Eddie Vedder falls down a mine shaft or that Columbus is infested with locusts

I was searching around trying to figure out the capacity of Perry's tent (15k!) and I found a pretty interesting article discussing the nuts and bolts of planing a festival (addressing bottle necks, crowd flow, etc). There's also one about the Ill AG investigating Lolla's radius clause.
Do you guys see me being able to sell them?
I know there are people looking to buy tix still (this guy included)
