I have heard some rumors that MTV will be at bonnaroo 2006. I really hope that this isn't true, but has anyone heard and further information on this? I think it would definitely be a step in the wrong direction for the festival.

I know i listen to jambands because its good music. Although the rumored headliners arent "jambands" theyr still excellent bands and should be great shows. Learn to appreciate more than one genre, its not like bonnaroo is gonna be lacking jam bands, im sure you go and only see stereotypical jambands if you wanted to. I'll take this variety though, im sure theres more people who would like radiohead to headline than there arent.

and also, MTV approves of Radiohead, Beck and Tom Petty.

Wikpedia even says that these are just rumors...but this troll thinks its complete fact. After reading him continue this for attention all afternoon its gotten kinda funny, in a sad way.
I can't remember the last time I've even seen Radiohead, Beck, or Tom Petty on MTV. Maybe MTV2, but they are far, far , far away from anything that channel even touches anymore.
Beck had a little main stream success with Guero, but for the most part he's been toiling in almost mainstream anonymity since Odelay.
Tom Petty got MTV airtime back when I was in Junior High. The last time I saw anything even remotely about Radiohead would have been during one of their somewhat decent late night shows on MTV2.
Dave Matthews is closer to the MTV crowd than any of these bands.

Why are inde fans so caught up on how often somethihng gets aired?
I wish they would play PAnic/Dead/Cheese/moe./Tery on the radio or TV. They just don't.
Indie fans are the most fickle fairweather fans ever.

There are far better sources involved than Wikipedia. I am a moe. field marketer.
This lineup reminds me of a cross between the most recent "woodstocks" and Lollapalooza. BOTH OF WHICH WERE MASSIVE FALIURES.
I was at Woodstock '94, I thought I had a great time, but considering family has dubbed it a "MASSIVE FAILURE" I must not have. Thanks for clearing that up.

MY bad, riots and monetary exploitation are a good scene. MAybe that was the next one though.
Can we please at least keep the off-topic back-and-forth bickering to one thread instead of spreading it around?
Oh yeah, and the rioting, gang-rape stuff was Woodstock '99. I was at Woodstock '94 and it was the best weekend of my life up to that point. It was however very commercial in terms of advertising presence, which does indeed suck. Marlboro was practically giving away smokes and I have probably personally paid off their Woodstock investment fueling the addiction that they ignited.

I guess they would have most likely announced a partnership with MTV by now if it was in the works. So, I guess we're safe for another year, even though the rumored line-up is slightly leaning to an indie-rock 'roo 06. Also, I had heard that the lease for the beautiful land on which 'roo takes place is expired after this year. I don't know if this is hear say or actual fact. Anyone heard if the legend of 'roo will continue after this year?

"KNOXVILLE — Patrick Roddy, a Knoxville businessman who formerly was director of the Knoxville Zoo, has joined AC Entertainment as chief operating officer..."
I grew up worshipping Rock and Roll like a religion. I know its shortcomings and strengths but have loved it unconditionally all the same since I was eight-years old. I ran away and joined the circus and honestly, I'm still as obsessed as I was as a boy. I'm not a kid anymore but I still remember how it felt and it doesn't really feel all that different to me now.
I remember standing out in front of What after Beck and seeing the MTV camera man motioning for the crowd to go wild and being met with a bunch of boos... haha.
