So, I'd really like to see some of the comedians this year, but i've heard that you have to stand in line early to even get into the tent, and sometimes it will fill up before you even get a chance at a seat.
I really don't want to miss music by waiting in line for something i may not even get to see. Is this the way it is, or have I heard wrong?

That's the way it is. While the line can often be deceivingly short(in that it looks way way too long for you to get in but you do), it is quite possible to not get into any given show after waiting on liine.

i'm definitely going to bonnaroo for the music. i would love love love to see zack galificantspellhisname, but i'm not missing good shows for it. especially since the line for his show will probably be ridiculously long
Zack Galifinakis (close enough) and Brian Posehn (also close enough) are both going to be absolutely hilarious. But like most others, I can't justify missing anything so that I can stand in line for a CHANCE to see the comedian I want to see.

Last year I saw Lewis Black once (after waiting in line through the first show since I didn't get in) and I saw Demetri Martin twice. It was absolutely worth it to see them because I love them both (especially Demetri! <3). I don't know if I'll make it to anything this year...depends on the schedule...but it is quite nice to sit down and relax out of the heat.
Also, ediger, karma for the Powerthirst quote! You'll feel like a fighter jet made of BICEPS!

I went on Sunday and caught Dave Attell, and it was great, the line wasnt very long at all, but we missed the start of the white stripes, which made it nearly impossble to get close. It is nice to get out of the heat for a little while. It was cooler in the tent, but the dust was still as bad. One funny thing about the line was that it was almost always pretty long, and it snaked off in different directions every time I walked by, I thought that was pretty amusing. Like some crazy snake. Oh and heres some Dave Attell footage from last year, (these are my most watched youtube videos)

i went and saw every comedy act this year, i think i timed it out pretty well around my schedule and didn't miss much of anything, maybe a half hour here or there... but that can happen anyway at roo, there's just so much to do
i'd do it again in a heartbeat, i love good comedy as much as i love good music, so it's totally worth it for me
