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!!
I know that this is the first year that Firefly has been really active on Inforoo, but for actual Roo, is there a lot of activity on here during the festival?
No. It's pretty dead for the most part. There's a handful of regular posters who aren't able to make it that year for whatever reason that post, but the volume of posting drops dramatically starting Wednesday through Monday.

Are you asking if a Bonnaroo centric message board is active during Roo season? Or if it's active during the 4 days of Roo?
The answer is yes to the first and I wouldn't know about the second, because I'm at Bonnaroo.
DAMN IT ALL TO HELL! Beat by Dave again. Jesus Dave!
I hope you guys get something soon. Good, bad, or meh.
Both of these things. I still think the title for 20k+ post is balls, but those pink stars are glorious. I have my fingers crossed that the lineup is good, but it's getting to the point where it's got to be almost more important that it's out, so you can make alternate plans if the lineup does happen to suck.

look at this motherquaker wanting pink stars....
What's wrong with wanting pink stars? They're pretty.
Since they posted the maps on Firefly's website, what is the biggest difference from last year that anyone's noticed?
I saw earlier that they eliminated premier camping on South, but as far as the actual stages and locations, what do you see being the most markedly different aspect in 2015?

I voted for "Look at this mother fucker with pink stars" or whatever it was.
I also want pink stars. Bets on how long it'll before I get them? I'm averaging a little over 5k posts/ year. So... 2018? I did math right? I can't wait that long.

Biggest thing I see is they didn't tell us where the water stations will be. That was one of the biggest problems last year so I'm wondering what that will mean.
Also, FF related: how fast, I'd at all, do camping passes sell out? If I can't camp I can't go. I don't has money for a hotel. I don't have money to go people, but I'm going- as long as I can camp.
And to be clear, it's one camping pass for a spot, regardless of how many people, right? I don't have to buy a pass per person?

Last year the premiere camping probably lasted about a month, but the general camping didn't sell out until May I think.
You do not have to buy a camping pass per person either, I think you are allowed 6 people per camping pass.

I believe this year the max per spot is 6 people.
"10’ X 30’ camping space for up to SIX (6) people"
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

I think their map key (or maybe it was somewhere on the site itseld) this year said water refill was available at any "post" if that's true it looks like they've added a bunch more.
Someone pointed out earlier that the map is sort of inaccurate. I agree. It's not really scaled right. It makes it look like the raceway is right across the street from festival entrance. I mean, it's not far but it's definitely not across the street.
The fact that they have this pavilion stage makes me think they booked more EDM this year. Must not have had a lot of foot traffic at the big break stage last year because that's gone this year.

Don't have to buy a pass per person. The camping spot is good for one car. They say up to 6 people per spot. But last year I drove in with 3 in one car. And 6 others parked elsewhere and joined up with us. A spot is only 10 x 30 so you can only really fit one big tent or two small ones and pop up.

Anyway, back on topic. How many weeks do we think are left until lineup drop?
And what are peoples' feeling on this new 'Pavilion' stage? Think it'll be an EDM tent, or something lame with seats like an actual pavilion?
Based on the picture I do think it'll be a tent. I'm not sure it'll be 100% EDM but it appears pretty likely thats where they will host most of the EDM shows.
Edit- 100% agreed about premier camping if you can swing the extra day Also in regards to the big break stage they moved the porch to the same location so I'm thinking that will likely take over as the 'big break' stage.
I'm only seeing "Posts" in the camping areas and not in the actual festival. I don't see indication of water refill stations on the festival grounds map.

Yeah isn't it 6 max for tent, 8 for RV and four and two for glamping (depending on which one you want)?
Honestly though I never saw anyone keeping track of how many people were at your camp site.
Last year the only camping that sold out immediately was the super RV which is the one with the hook ups for electric. I think that sells so fast though because there aren't many spots.

Let me see if I can find where I saw that and make sure I didn't hallucinate it or something.
At what point do you think the FB group will start to show their teeth again? Or will they be kept at bay indefinitely by way of just a few ticket giveaways (that the vast majority of people are NOT gonna win) each day?

Oh also definitely go with premiere camping. It's not too much more money and it is def worth it.
What is the biggest difference that makes it worth it? The website doesn't say much, but I was considering it.
I have a mid-size tent (can fit two queen size air mattresses with almost no room left over) and two canopies. One of which I put over my tent, the other is huge, but pink so it comes along. I wanna say the canopies are 9x9 (tent one) and 12x12 maybe? It's big, I know that. Plus my car, but I have a tiny car so that's not tooooo much of a concern compared to what others have to deal with.

You get to start camping on Wednesday night and beat the traffic. Everybody else has to come in on Thursday. MUCH shorter lines getting into the festival itself each day. Also you don't have to walk 30 min across a closed off highway overpass everyday.
The only downside is the premiere camping area is on the opposite side of the festival grounds than everyone else. So you can't really interact with the GA campers too much. And if one of the people camping with you is showing up later it's a huge challenge. Last year a few friends had to park by ga camping and then walk all their gear about 4 miles to get to the premiere area.

People definitely are showing their teeth, probably at the same rate that they were last week.
It's just that the teeth get buried underneath the lips smooching Red Frog's ass.
As long as they keep requiring that you post to their page to qualify for the ticket giveaways, I think the majority of posts will be ticket-pandering positivity.
With premier you are just significantly closer to the festival than general camping. Though i have to admit i've camped in south premier the past 2 years it appears south will be RV only and tent will be North camping. That said you'll have an entrance by the main stage whereas everyone else coming into the festival will have quite the trek to the mainstage so if you have an early act you want to see up close or if you want to camp for a headliner you'll have the best opportunity for a great spot.
if I can't make it there until Thursday morning, is Premiere worth it? I've seen some people post that once Premiere is filled, they just stick you in GA parking. If that is true, that's a ripoff...
