Who else is on board. I've already got my ticket, I'm going by myself so if any of you want to meet up let me know.  What time should I leave Knoxville in order to get there and be settled in by noon on Friday?  Thanks,

Brian

(I'm not official, so I'm putting it in brackets, but if I go, I definitely would love to meet up!)

I would go, but I'm soured from last year.  TOOOO hot and I got a night in jail on the way down...damn you Dade County.

   Like a 16th of weed.  And it wasn't even mine!  We went off an exit on I-26 (the only one on the Georgia Stretch) and they had a checkpoint, had a drug dog, and found like 20 bucks worth of pot that my buddy had.  Both of us got charged and taken to jail for the night, got out at 9 am on Friday and had to pay $400 bucks each (including the impound fee) and didn't get to bonnaroo till 10 pm that night.  
    My morning jacket proved to be worth the whole ordeal though...best rock show I've EVER seen, hands down.  
    But yeah, that's why I went to jail.  Bummer :-/

I'm in.

Although I didn't get up on time to get the cheapest priced tickets, in fact we didn't even get the second price point. I paid full price for my Bonnaroo ticket and do not regret it at all. I still think it is a great deal.

I figure I'd pay $15 to see the smaller bands and $30 to see the bigger ones individually.

If I take it easy and pace myself to see 6 shows each of the three days, which will be cake. That's 18. in three days. Most of my friends don't see that many in a year.

I am going this year making it three out of four...gotta represent us thirty-somethings...kicked myself all year for missing the MMJ set from last year.  I have flat worn out that CD since getting it from the bonnaroo site. Heres hoping for a late time slot!

I ordered on January 29th

This is my first Bonnaroo and I think this is the best line-up since 2003.

My Morning Jacket, The Mars Volta, That Black Crowes, and hopefully Kings of Leon and The Black Keys will be added.

Someone told me thier was a rumor that Pearl Jam was going to sign on.  If this is true I won't be able to stop biteing my nails until I find out for sure they're not playing in the same time slot as MMJ.

 :o  That would be amazing but it's not likely.

Someone told me that John Fogerty was supposed to sign on as well. But I doubt it.

I heard the rumour too.
Also rumoured: The Arcade Fire / Iron & Wine / Beck.


The sound in your mind is the first sound that you could sing

I thought those three were confirmed...  That's what my bro said last night...

Iron and Wine has been on the bill for a while now, but if they add Beck that would be Super Sweet.
