Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
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!!
AC Entertainment has interns & employees to help facilitate the selection process.
AC is a cool guy who has his finger on the pulse of the music industry. He also gets mobbed in restaurants by Inforoosters & mods who bend his ear...not that I'd know anything about that. *whistles*
Ashley Capps is a rare bird, as is Ken Weinstein with Big Hassle. They have never given me the impression that they think they are playing on a different level than the music fans. They seem to enjoy talking to music fans about the music at Bonnaroo, as if they are just fans themselves.
Like the previous two posters I would agree that if Mr. Capps himself doesn't brave the waters of inforoo there are at least interns or folks somewhere else in the establishment that may check in here. I mean hey, we have insider!

Personally, I have found Ken Weinstein to a human being, a nice enough guy and what I have read about Capps is all good.
Let's face it. Both put their pants on one leg at a time just like we do and to survive, for long, in their business, I would suspect that you have be both personable and doggedly focused, two qualities that at times probably fluctuate from the polar ends.
Balance would be the key and they seem to be there for, the most part.

Feedback on here, Facebook and Twitter is probably taken very seriously but also with a very large grain of salt. A company would be foolish to ignore it all, but it would be just as foolish to believe it all.
I got to meet him last year, and told it was my five year anniversary. We kept running into each other at shows and just danced and celebrated. Really.Cool.Dude.
He has a twitter page you can tweet him if you want. He invited everyone to a Trixie Whitley show last night here in NYC, I went. He remembered me, which was so awesome! I got some major balls and pitched him my idea of doing artist interviews on the Ferris Wheel and asked if he would do it. He said YES!
I'm not getting my hopes too high, because I know he will be busy, but he said he would *totally do it.* If you guys have any questions you want to ask, let me know!
