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!!
And the almighty dollar, profit vs loss, insurance, revenue from vendors, sweet deals, etc. Festivals are big money makers. I read this week where Bonnaroo generated $36m direct and $56M indirect to Coffee County, TN. Filling that gap between Mothers Day and Memorial Day was a smart business move given they can ask peak for what was off-season. And then there are some performers who would play Hangout for less and some would want more. Big difference on some performers of outdoors and in the HVAC. Poor Mavis Staples and Allison Krauss both were victims of tough weather. Heat and sun got Mavis and wind got Allison. I think Chesney, Buffett, foo Fighters, ZBB, others love festival atmosphere or large outdoor venues.

How great would it be if they opened up the beach for Thursday night. Even if there was no shows it would be cool to get in an explore the full fest site with less people.

Deep house DJ where the Malibu tent is with this and were in business.

yea make the malibu tent like the boom boom and make the HOF stage the paladia. and keep the resturant open.
Dancing on the beach Thursday night would be excellent. No extra fee. Not gonna happen unless the start setup a day early so they don't have construction and vendors on beach road. Nice thought though. Open 6-11 pm Thursday ... Very nice.

Definitely not my favorite lineup but enough to keep me entertained. LCD is probably a pipe dream. Even the Coachella folks are saying it's not going to happen for them but would be an interesting get for Hangout. Noel would be great. Pearl Jam and Guns both have enough sing along to have a great time on the beach. I'd check out Muse and really interested in The National. OMAM, Cornell, RTJ and Barnett would all be acts I'd want to see.

PJ and LCD are the only two bands on there that I like that I haven't seen. That being said, they are two of the bands that I want to see most in the world, so I still might go if no other festival got them. (I'm not gonna address the fact that they won't get LCD and they probably wouldn't book PJ and GnR the same year and Muse will be booked no lower than second and if they got a top 4 that strong, they wouldn't be able to afford Lana at 5th) Ok, the more I think about it, the more it just seems like denial to me, Lana feels like a definite 3 or 4 to me, I'll be really surprised if they get her and she is. 5th or lower

While I agree on LCD, I think Muse could be a #3. Lana I am torn on. A few people seem to think she's moved into that headliner slot but these things get tricky. MMJ was basically groomed to be the next big headliner by Bonaroo over the years and were 7th on their lineup and 6th on the Hangout poster but headlined a few other fests and killed it. I could see her being one of those acts that should be billed higher but just doesn't happen this time around. But to be fair, I don't know much of her body of work outside of what people have said here.

See, I don't think Muse could be billed lower than second at any fest at this point. This is coming from someone who isn't even a huge fan of them either. They're huge globally at this point and with the new album coming out, they're only going to get bigger. About Lana, I'm not exactly a wealth of information on her but after seeing people talk about her being now lower than 5th at bonnaroo next year, I checked out her album sales and the size of the venues she was playing (though some were her AND Grimes) and she is definitely capable of having the headlining slot. I think her being billed third and closing the Surf on Sunday is perfect for her. Honestly, I think the realistic, best case scenario for Hangout is Pearl Jam - Muse - Lana Del Ray - Arctic Monkeys.
All of those are great artists. While I'm not a huge fan of Lana or Muse, they are both extremely talented and I'd check out their shows unless they conflicted with Disclosure or Justice or some unrealistic act in the Boom Boom tent.

I just don't know about Lana. I know she has the sales, but a whole bunch of them are overseas. Same can be said about Muse or Arctic Monkeys I guess. i actually liked most of Muse's last album and would check them out but they aren't someone I would be excited about off hand. I have much different taste than most of the Hangout crowd as much as I love the fest in general. I guess maybe I could see her in the Sam Smith type slot but in my opinion that would push Muse to #3. Someone large enough to headline an entire fest - Lana- Muse - Large act similar to Beck with Lana closing the Surf but even that I feel is doubtful. I guess I just don't know her enough and don't see it translating to the beach vibe really well. I really think we're going to get some unexpectd stuff we find out from Infinitypass a week before the lineup drop as always and Lana will show up on most second lines this year but I'm certainly not the pop/modern rock guru by any means. I'm the resident classic rock and jam band expert, haha. (along with a few others similar in taste...solidrock most notably, Bob on the classics, Paula, esteban when he's not stuck in the tent, haha, some others). I enjoy finding some new bands that I like from all my Hangout friends.

I really just wanted to ask a question not be sarcastic but just to ask if people would want the gnr show now because I remember last year everyone saying please no fat axl which I agree as a person can't stand him kind of like Kanye but is it having the original lineups that makes everyone want them to play cuz I could like that as well just wondering everyone's opinion on that? Also I got to see Lana at Music midtown last year waiting to get a good spot for eminem I didn't know much of her music but she definitely has a great voice and good chemistry with her fans and crowd bit can't lie it was also very boring almost like the same song never ended for over an hour. If she does play I would hope for her to not be a full headliner and would probably skip her set for another show or better spot for another set.

I've been listening to Palladia a lot lately. Twenty one Pilots in the late afternoon slot instead of Flaming Lips on Chevy would be a good get. Similar styles. Good musicians. OCMS seemed to like Hangout and would like to see them back. I enjoyed Blackberry Smoke but, wish the had played main stag at dusk vice Sunday morning on Chevy. Cornell lead in for PJ or Nirvana, or Soundgarden would be freaking awesome on Sunday night. I'm the same on LDR...she has nice pipes, but like Norah Jones and just brings no energy for a beach. I would much rather them book Sheryl Crow or Adele and adjust. Muse would be slam dunk performance of Saturday closer, but may be hard to get. Arcade Fire next. Then I'd look at Mellencamp, Aerosmith, Steve Tyler solo, or Lindsey Buckingham. Hoping someone new like Jack White style will come out next nine months for Friday night.

For the love of god, did you just compare 21 Pilots to the Flaming Lips? and then you casually brought up Nirvana playing... Bob, everyone is entitled to their own taste, so I don't respond to a lot of stuff you say but 21 pilots vs. Flaming Lips is flat out wrong and blows my mind that such a thing could ever be said and "Nirvana" will never play again. Even, if Grohl and company decided to tour doing a show like the one they played at the Hall of Fame induction last year, I'm willing to bet they wouldn't perform under the name "Nirvana."

I read Nirvana was putting out another album in 2016. Will try to find the link for you. Flaming Lips played afternoon Chevy set that my son and I enjoyed. Definitely not big Lips production, but 21 Pilots on Palladia played a set I would like to see in same time and stage and yes...there were some similarities. IMO. Flat out correct LOL.

I'd appreciate the link for the Nirvana album if you can find it, simply because that seems odd to me and I'd of course love to see them. But, please, tell me the similarities between 21 pilots and the a Flaming Lips (aside from them both making music and having all white members, I literally can't tell you one that is related to music)
In reading a lot about PJ, Cornell, Grohl and others and checking a list of 2016 scheduled releases the other night, I may have read Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and this article and lumped them all together. I really liked the Seattle sound and would have like to have seen any of the above. The performance Cornell put on at Hangout was one of my favorites.
Flaming Lips vice Twentyone Pilots...both are definitely alternative and not country, rock, blues, indie, folk, etc. I guess I could make an argument that no two bands are alike, particularly of the alternative variety. If you read their Wikipedia histories and what critics say about them, definitely can make the argument they are different. Remember, I am a classic rocker and listen to more folk-country than alternative. When I saw the Palladia clip and watched Flaming Lips at Hangout...I thought they appealed to the same crowd and would both be popular on the beach at the Chevy stage around dusk. I can see them both showing up around the same place on the lineup. My opinion...
And they both like weird sh*t and get crowds up on their feet.
