As one of the many who took off two days to purchase tickets and was online at 12:00PM sharp only to be kicked offline on more than 20 occassions and left to pay top tier prices for tickets, it seems that something tangible should be offered as a token by Bonnaroo. Granted the mistakes lie mainly with the ticket provider, but this is a serious operation and the mess that occurred this year, does not reflect well on America's greatest music festival. I hope that Bonnaroo does not just take everyone's frustration as petty complaining as all of us work very hard for our money and paying an extra $25 for someone else's mistakes should not be part of the Bonnaroo experience. I am extremely excited about this year's festival but have a bad taste in my mouth after this year's ticket experience. I truly hope that some financial or musical reward will be offered to us for our patience. I know of some middle-tier bands who would probably love to make this right ie Blues Traveler, Spin Doctors, Sleigh Bells, Jack White, Florence and the Machine, Jet, Dickie Betts, the Cranberries, Chuck Berry, etc. Maybe if we all petitioned, some compromise could be made.

So just to get this straight, you will feel better if some mid tier bands are added? In that case let me personally apologize to you on behalf of Bonnaroo and let you know that indeed we are working now behind the scenes to make sure that some mid tier bands are added after all. I am leaning towards Blues Travelers for the add what are your thoughts?
I would totally stop by the Spin Doctors. But I would probably be drunk so I would stay far too long and then miss someting good and then listen to my dad yell at me over the phne the next morning.
This happened to me in 10. i went to Weezer far too drunk for my own good and missed Jeff Beck. My father eylled at me in the morning. My head hurt. There was nothing good that came of it.
I got tier 5 tickets on the 18th and a few days later got a notification that Bonnaroo gave me $15 back for each ticket. Did this happen to anybody else?
This is the first message board I've ever been on, the only reason I joined is because I love Bonnaroo and wanted to read and talk about it all year long.
Don't forget, the litigant would also settle this dispute with Roo for the amount of Jet, Chuck Berry and some Cranberries. Make this right. We want justice.
All I'm saying ladies and gents, is that a mistake was made in the ticket mess that could be righted in a spectacular way in the form of some good late additions. I don't know how many times I've seen people post their hopes and prayers for Prince to be added late only to find the comedian lineup and some weak lower cards thrown on in March. In fact during the last four years, almost none of the artists additions have cracked into the top ten of the year's lineup. If you guys would rather another Latin Tent instead of Paul Simon or Jack White, I guess I am in the minority.
