Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!

I totally understand. Since 91, I've kept all of my stubs in business card holders and have them in scrap book type deals.

same. and i can vouch for this person. he has seen alot of shows this year ;D
I'd be broke if lived in the NYC-Jersey area! You guys get everything up there!
I don't see as many shows as I would like because I am not as rich as I would like to be
But let's see... John Butler Trio, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Sinead O'Connor, Pink, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks, Pearl Jam, Matt Nathanson, Rocco DeLuca and the Burden, Matt Kearney, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Enter the Haggis, Christopher Cross, Toni Braxton, Jackie Greene, Citizen Cope, Pete Seeger, Rolling Stones, Sheryl Crow, Poison, Carbon Leaf, John Mayer, John Mellencamp, Gomez, Ben Kweller, Sarah Lee Guthrie and Johnny Irion, They Might Be Giants, Chris Isaac and Tenacious D off hand though I know there are many more... does that make me diverse enough? Or am I missing too many hard bands? Jam bands? ???
I too am appreciative of the diversity and embrace it. I can't bother my lazy self to list shows i've seen lately but i'm excited about roo this year and have discovered MGMT today which is kicking my @$$!!

Nobody living in a Little Pink House is diverse. You have failed at life.
I'm a HUGE Britney fan. I cried when they took that crackhead...I mean greatest mom EVAR kids away.
I consider my self fairly diverse. I like both good and bad movies. I enjoy both cats and dogs equally. I love sushi and fish sticks.
I am so diverse it hurts.
Also on my iPod right now I have. Some of the Once soundtrack Dresden Dolls One dashboard confessional tune Muse The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Bright Eyes Ben Harper ZZ Top I also have a few podcasts it's only a 1gb shuffle.
Let's see, since attending Roo last year I've seen...
Black Keys Bruce Springsteen Ween Avenue Q (the musical) Galactic RAQ Tea Leaf Green Medeski, Scofield, Martin and Wood
Heck, I can't remember... It's a good post though b/c people should appreciate that a festival exists that actually promotes all kinds of music, PLUS comedy, PLUS cinema, PLUS arts, PLUS beer, PLUS 90+ degree weather that you can't sleep in......

Mickey's cool. Saw him at Lolla. Was supposed to interview him, then something happened and it fell through. His album's bad ass. He's got some fuuucked up life stories, that's for sure.

*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**
Diversity can come from many different things but I chose the shows we've been to because that's what were all here for, the music. I wanted people to see that it's ok to enjoy something other than jam and roots rock or metal or hip hop. I wanted people to understand that there a good people that come out of all of these different communities. Bonnaroo embodies the best of everything. When it comes to good music and good people, the overall spirit that I've come to love about Roo is whats it's all about. When I see the void between different demgraphics and all the negativity posted on the boards, it's a little disheartening.
There is a quote that Kid Rock prints on all of his cd books and it is so true...
"If it looks good, you'll see it; If it sounds good, you'll hear it; If it's marketed right, you'll buy it; but if it's real...you'll feel it."

Not many shows over the past 2 years because I just can't afford them: Roo 06, Roo 07, Aaron Lewis (aucoustic), DMB, Damien Rice, John Butler Trio
But my list of bands I love I think is pretty diverse (especially considering I am 40 and old!) - this is the stuff on my ipod right now:
DMB Incubus Tool John Butler Trio The Mars Volta Linkin Park Pearl Jam Grateful Dead Phish moe. Radiohead System of a Down Korn Damien Rice Muse Ben Harper White Stripes Wolfmother
