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!!
I've noticed alot of people on the board have been stricken with the same affliction as I. No matter what the lineup, Roo can't be missed. So I was wondering, What kind of lineup would it take for you all never to go back. For fun, lets hear the opposite of your dream lineup.
Mine:
Metallica, Ace of Base, and Blink 182 would headline
K-Fed could represent the rap scene...
Alan Jackson (late night), maybe some Nick Carter...
Finally the superjam would consist of Lars from Metallica, John Tesh on keys, and and endless chain of American Idol runner-ups...
If this went down i would prolly kill myself.
(P.S. if you like any of these bands I didn't mean to offend...and maybe you should go on some meds.)

Is is bad if I'm cringing while I'm reading this? Honestly though I think I would turn my back forever on Roo if Nickelback was listed in the lineup. That or if Justin Timberlake's name hit thelist as well. I think my cry of dismay would be heard from miles away.

There is one band essential for any "Worst Bonnaroo Ever:" LIMP BIZKIT! Then after the Bizkit there could be a plethora of talent, including those already mentioned, as well as Fergie, Air Supply, Snow, Puddle of Mudd, James Blunt, Bryan Adams, Fall Out Boy, Stryper, 50 Cent, Right Said Fred, Color Me Badd, and the legendary Michael Bolton.
I don't know if I agree with Metallica, espescially since they are working with Rick Rubin now. But the others are good. How about adding some Kenny Chesney or Rascals flatts. I think they would be the two to send me over the edge. Late night show with Toby Keith and special guest Black eyed peas. My Hump My Hump

Hanson (turns "Mmmbop" into an hour-long jam session, and then spends the next two hours introducing us to their new, "edgier" sound) Mariah Carey Billy Ray Cyrus (of 'Achy, Breaky Heart' fame) Eddie Murphy ('Whatzupwitu' complete with cloud background and MJ look-a-like) LFO (Anyone else remember?) The Captain & Tennille Los Del Rio ('Macarena' on repeat) Journey (with Randy Jackson, from American Idol, on bass)

Seriously, metallica would shread at bonnaroo, id take that. All the others i would not take though. I hate rascal flatts.
I was born in the back seat of a Yellow Cab in a hospital loading zone and with the meter still running. I emerged needing a shave and shouted 'Time Square, and step on it!

Headliners : Jethro Tull, Kenny G and Blind Melon Late night acts: - A four hour set that'll start out with Backstreet boys, then go to N' sync, then 98 degrees, and the last hour would be a reunion tour of none other than Color me badd!! - Jamiroquai - Yanni (you betcha!) Hip hop acts - Vanilla Ice, Master P, Insane Clown Posse and Kottonmouth kings
Other acts would include - Crash Test Dummies, Goo Goo Dolls, Smash Mouth, Kansas, Starship, Lee Greenwood, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Rhichard Marx and Duran Duran
I fully respect your taste in music, but Metallica at Bonnaroo would really be all it would take to get me to find a new fest. To me, they represent everything that is not Roo (big radio, sewing Napster, MTV, etc.) Tool is somewhat nearing just as commercial at this point, but the progressive sound/abstract & intelligent lyrics makes them fit the mold a little more. Also, the type of crowd Metallica would attract wouldn't be the most enjoyable to be around in a scene like Roo.
I actually like alot of the s**t Metallica put out before Cliff Burton died. After that they started to slip. By the time they got to the Load/Relod the music was scary bad. My most recent exposure to these guys was the "Some Kind of Monster" DVD. They are now all apparently loopy, and their music is painfully overproduced. I have to say, there is no worse a place than Roo for Metallica to make an appearance short of a bluegrass festival. Again, i don't mean to offend anyone with this but, seriously^^^
That Nickelback video was sweet. They would ruin the festival for me. Purely musically Nickelback, Three Days Grace, Fall Out Boy, All-American Rejects or Panic at the Disco would ruin the festival for me. Seeing mainstream rap would be pretty bad for the value of the festival, but I'd rather hear "Candy Shop" from 50 Cent 100 times over anything from Fall Out Boy.

And as far as Tool being nearly as commercial as Metallica, I don't think that's true. Maybe as popular as Metallica, but popular doesn't = commercial. Instead of getting more and more commercial, Tool seems to get more abstract and progressive with each album. The opposite direction Metallica has gone.

That would be the ultimate Bonnaroo!
I'd see vanilla ice... YEAH! ;D
I love this thread.
How about the spice girls with LFO? Maybe a little stand-up from bill cosby? Jello anyone?
