bonnaroo? you bonnaroo?
has anyone jumped trail to work or play at the roo?
No, NO , and NOOOOOOOO..............
All Bonnaroo does is destroy access to the best hiking areas in Tennessee's South Cumberland region (by turning I-24 into a parking lot) and turn the actual area of the concert into a landfill. It's a stain on the area.
If people spent less time being offended and more time actually living, we'd all be a whole lot happier!
I went in 2003. It was fun, but WAY too crowded for this concert veteran. The one performance I'd really like to see is Alison Krauss & Robert Plant, and I have great seats to see them in Chattanooga in April.Originally Posted by mozzie
My strategy in '03 was to find a big oak tree near one of the smaller stages, and stay under it most of the day. I discovered some great music at Bonnaroo. That's probably the best part of the whole thing. Learning about new music.
you couldn't give me free tickets and a limo ride to that freakin zoo.
That's my prime hiking season!

I went the first three years before i realized how bad it sucks. Its sad to see the good set list every year, and not want to go beacuse of all the bull****.
When I saw this thread, I couldn't wait to read your reply.
pretty mild huh?
muck
My daughter and her boyfriend went a few years ago - - she now refers to it as "Bonapoo" because of the filthy ankle deep sewer pit it became in the rain. People were just using the ground for a toilet rather than walk to the porta potties and not bothering to bury it. She's vowed to never go again.

OK, I'll bite. What is Bonnaroo? Sounds like a southern Woodstock....

i have never been because it will never compare to Phish NYE2000
too many people and they jsut seem to get younger and more wild the older i get....some great bands though
Bonapoopoo is right. Southern woodstock they wish.Someone did offer me a free tic and I said no. That place sucks for music.
the first year was the best. after that it went way down hill. the crowd changed and the cops got more involved.
I enjoy some of the bands that have played there... I'm not a fan of the crowds.
same here.
Drive By Truckers will be in Asheville March 29th. a bunch of us from the damascus area will be there
I'm not a fan of Phish, and never have been. Was a big fan of the Dead when Jerry was still alive. By far, the worst band I saw in 2003 at Bonnaroo was The Dead. They were plain awful, although many of the younger folks really seemed to enjoy them. Having seen the real deal between '78 - '95, the reconstituted band was really disappointing. I left the festival in the middle of their second set.http://www.bonnaroo.com/

That's sad, I did not know this. Daughter called the other day and said her & boyfriend are going. It probably won't change their mind but I'll be sure she reads the thread...
think I'll go for a walk outside now...
Everyone I know that went claims to have spent over $1000 on drugs/alcohol during the event.
