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!!
2014 also had great acts Thursday night playing well after 1:30. I don't think we got back to camp till like 2:30 after Ty Segall. Not sure about last year cuz I wasn't there, but 2015 seemed to shut down quite a bit earlier Thursday, with substantially less exciting closing acts.
Seriously though. What the fuck happened to Bonnaroo? I remember early in the decade just losing my shit at Bonnaroo lineups. Like "knot in my stomach at the thought of missing this" good. Now it's turned into "wow I really hope they book enough good acts to convince me to go."

Mac Demarco's Enter Sandman encore wasn't exciting enough for you? Also Jungle and Gramatik closed the other tents, I'd say those are some good Thursday closers

When the lineup does come out, and if the undercard does suck (i.e. contains artists generally the caliber of 2016's undercard), I'm going to need everyone's support to convince me to not go. It's ridiculous how attached I am to this festival.
I'm going to try and tell myself all sorts of lies to convince myself to go. All sorts of justifications and rationalizations. I hope that y'all, as my online message board buddies, will call me out on my bullshit, and hold me accountable.
I'm asking inforoo to proverbially tie the proverbial werewolf to the proverbial chair during the proverbial full moon, and not proverbially let me go no matter how much I plead.

I find this post especially delightful due to your avatar.
'Member sunrise late nights? 'Member the 2012 lineup?

Buy a Black Friday ticket that way you don't have to rationalize further than "I already have a ticket might as well go". In all seriousness though I feel you. Last year was my first year so I never got to experience a "good" bonnaroo so I'm hoping the lineup is good but even if it's not it's going to be hard to pass up.

I forgot about Jungle, that was fun. I think they finished before 1am tho, which was more to my point. I'"" conceded the "not as exciting" comment, but only a little.

I feel similarly. I'm not 100% on not going yet, but our HLs with something similar to this year's undercard would make it really, really hard for me to want to go. And the HLs being bandied about for Shaky Knees are REALLY enticing to me, so I might end up doing that and Coach and calling it a day.
Though Roo is the only time I get to see a lot of the people on here that I love, so that's a strong draw for me. If enough of them agree to get in the pit for Chance with me, I'll probably go haha.

You're what they call an enabler.
Nothing beats being on a farm for 4 days with 50k of your closest enablers.

I agree with all the grievances stated over and over here. I've been beating the same drum. But if McDonald's raised the price of a Big Mac by a few bucks, took one beef patty off and saw sales drop in almost half...I'm guessing they'd make some changes.
What I'm getting at is wait for the lineup to shape up/drop before getting so doom and gloom.
Just want to bring the convo here. With his new album it would be safe to assume if he were to do fests Gambino would headline smaller fests and maybe end up 4th-6th at the big fests. You guys agree? Although I'd really like to see ATCQ it wouldn't be the same w/o Phife. That being said I'd be pit at that show.

doom and gloom is inforoo's resting state. we need a good lineup to bring us out of the doom and gloom, not a bad lineup to put us there.

I don't imagine we'll be getting Chance and Childish. Even Chance and ATCQ seems like too much hip-hop in the 4-7 range given Roo's history

Sorry I should have been clear. I know we won't get both. I was more just trying to discuss Gambino's new music/ position at a fest. I do however think Chance and ATCQ is possible

I didn't necessarily enjoy Gambino's set in 2015. I thought I would really love it and was kind of "meh" through the entire thing.
The hoard of "Bassheads" stalking behind us waiting for it to be over didn't help the cause either though I must say.
I really enjoyed that set. But I really like Gambino. I was also there with a girl who really liked that set. But one of my buddies said he enjoyed 2012 more.
