Here is a quick and crazy thought. Bonnaroo on pay per view. I know quite a few people that cant make the fest but would love to be able to pay a fee and watch the shows live. It would also be cool to have someone order it, tivo it then you could watch the sets when you got home from bonnaroo. I miss the days of live concerts on PPV, Woodstock 94 did it, I'm not sure if 99 did. just a thought.....

They basically already have it. If you have Comcast on Demand, like some people (not me) here in Knoxville do, you can order any single Bonnaroo show for a small fee. My buddy watched Oysterhead in '06 that way. And you wouldn't have to tivo it, either...you could just watch it whenever.

i think there might be too much censorable material...
that, and i paid A LOT of money not just for a ticket, but for all the things that go along with it. if you want to see bonnaroo...get a ticket
sorry, i'm selfish
doubt they'd have to censor it seeing as its pay-per-view. if they can air porn on ppv, I think roo is in the clear. Would probably be more economical for them to offer maybe some live streams online, or maybe pay per set and later you could get the mastered audio/video

any single show??/?
Actually, that was a completely unfounded statement.
There are some shows, I have no idea about how many.
Haha, people still tell me that mtv bought Bonnaroo. In '06, these two guys told me they were moving it to Texas. Every year there are stupid rumors. Last year someone even tried to tell me they were gonna book Metallica.

I remember reading an article that MTV has been a sponsor of Roo since 06 actually. but im not sure and could be wrong but it doesnt seem like they do much anyway
kurt loder????isnt that guy like 60...isnt he a little old to know whats goin on in the music world today
well that was kinda ignorant - what does age have to do with knowing what is going on in the music world - that is his job - it is what he does for a living - so I would assume he knows what is going on.
honestly i always liked kurt loder, i feel like Iv known him since i was a little kid when i would have to sneak out to living room in the middle of the night to watch mtv when they still played videos

Age has nothing to do with enjoyment of music or knowing what is happening in the music industry. My parents are nearly sixty and enjoy a lot of the same music I enjoy. I credit my parents with giving me the appreciation I have for such a wide variety of music. My father is even a huge White Stripes fan and has been to several concerts with my sister and myself. He is also well aware of who a lot of bands on the Roo lineup are and nearly came to 'Roo with my sister last year however he chose to visit Europe instead. (I can't blame him as I missed Roo last year because I was in Europe also, however I did attend several very cool music festivals while I was over there.
bonnaroo isn't a secret anymore....everyone found how great it is...bonnaroo is THE biggest fest out there and you will have people that see $ signs...its how it is...
bonnaroo was in the rolling stones top ten places to visit or what not...thats huge.
