Also if anyone is getting merch and could scoop up a Fred again.. t-shirt that'd be appreciated, idk if I've ever gotten merch at Roo before so idk if they sell out.

Rearrange lets me split some shit but I’m mostly at That tent. If it’s not ultra hot and I go in early which I sometimes do on Sundays, I’d go Armand > Irreversible > half hour of Yves > BBNG > all of Greensky > Megan > 400U/Joey then Fred. I like the way that worked out for me.
It's been a weird Roo season for me - I was super excited for the lineup drop after hearing that Fred was headlining and deciding to buy presale blind. Then the lineup dropped and almost all the wind left my sails. Sunday might be the best they've had since I've started going (usually there's one, MAYBE two bands I'm excited for on Sunday - this year my top four acts are all playing that day), but the other days left a lot to be desired. There's still a lot of fun to be had and PL will be sick, but otherwise there were a lot of "yeah I'll probably enjoy this" acts and Millenial-core acts like T-Pain and Sean Paul that I'd have fun at but are still pretty fillery for me. Combined with the fact that damn near none of the people I usually camp with were going, and I was now looking at three days of so-so music, mostly solo for a lot of it, and came close to just not going at all several times. That's a lot of time, money (rather tight for me rn), and effort for a day of music. Then I pivoted and decided to sell my ticket volunteer - it'd take care of the cost of the ticket, I'd get to meet new people, and I'd have something to do when the music I'm not that into was playing. Well...surprise surprise Bonnaroo's volunteer effort kinda sucks. They told us we'd get free showers and took that away last minute, and we still haven't even gotten schedules yet. As of yesterday I was fully prepared to just not go and enjoy a relaxing week off work instead of the gruel of Bonnaroo. I told myself I'd give myself one last night to sleep on it before making the decision.
Woke up and realized I'd be so much happier just doing a single day ticket. Moved things around and now I'm flying into Nashville Saturday night, Rooing Sunday, coming back Monday. And I'm absolutely geeked about it. I'm excited about Bonnaroo for the first time this year - like, REALLY really excited. I had thought about just doing a single day before but it seemed silly, but I think I needed perspective to see that it was the right move for me. I get to enjoy almost a full week relaxing in the city still, and have no red eye flights now so I'm gonna be fully rested to go real fucking hard for Chappell Roan > Four Tet > Yves Tumor > Fred again..
and I want all you fucks dancing with me. See y'all Sunday <3
im so so glad it worked out for youuuu to do it this way, bb <3 as you know, i contemplated doing exactly as you described, just sending it on a one-day ticket for Sunday because that truly is such a fucking good day of music. i ended up opting to not make a plan for that which i mostly think was the right call, but the fomo is present for sure.
pls dance hard enough for the both of us at Fred xoxoxo
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.
