the peeps at Superfly or whomever runs the show these days are always adding numerous acts as the countdown to the festy winds down- to boost the ticket sales and such.. keep your head up Jordan, there\'s still plenty of time.  Plus the rukkus you guys caused @ 10klks and MD6 last year should help with this year\'s momentum..

The only way I would ever go back to this show is if The Breakfast play, I fly in to TN, have an RV and have VIP tickets.

The venue is SOOOOO huge walking back and forth from camping depending on where they put you can be insane. The HEAT is lik enothing you have ever expeienced. and the folks that run the venue are dicks, at least they were when we went.

A 8 to 9 hour wait to get in if your lucky. It just not worth it to me when you can do 3 or 4 smaller festivals for the price of the ticket. I guess if your in to the MEGA fest its worht it but just not for this guy

line up looks nice this year, but i honestly don\'t know if i could ever go back to bonnaroo. i think the breakfast needs to play a festival like this and needs to get on the phone with it. the exposure would be so helpful for the band. i remember after seeing umphrey\'s mcgee there in 2004 they seemed to blow up.

How does one get to play at Bonnaroo? Is it something you are asked to do, you ask to do or is it just hope?

**** Bonnaroo. Smaller festivals get you more of a one on one. There are some many bands and spun out people at Bonnaroo that you can\'t remember what you saw, why you came and how you got there.

The Umphreys explosion was already in full effect by then, due to their huge set at Bonnaroo \'02.  That\'s the one that did it.  Before that show, we used to talk about Umphrey\'s and The Breakfast as peers!

For most bands you beg and then you hope.  For the small handful of huge acts they call you.

This theory is totally untrue and I can smell the sour grapes from 200 miles away.  Doozies get you "more of a one on one" also.  Doesn\'t do much to help the band though.  Ask any band who ever played Bonnaroo if they think their show was ineffective because people couldn\'t remember them afterwards.  Not one would give this thought any merit at all.  Everyone fan there takes 2-8 new bands home with them to talk about.  Sure they might forget a couple but this is the best showcase you can get.

Wow that lineup actually looks pretty good. I didn\'t even go to any festivals last summer because all of the lineups looked pretty much the same to me (keller keller keller...) but this one looks decent. However, I think and the only way I would go would be if the Breakfast were to play. I went the second year and it was so filthy and disgusting by the time we left that I was depressed the whole way home. I did have a good time though, and the heat didn\'t bother me much. I am good at hydrating...

Plus, it was **** humungoid the year I went, and it has really blown up since then so I can only imagine how ginormous it will be this year. Too much humanity in one spot for me. The walking didn\'t bother me at all.... it was the people that did. And, of course, the portapotties.

So now we have a band member whining about this stuff on the fansite?
That seems sad to me.
