Bonnaroo Speculation thread

Penny Lane · Jan 07, 2011, 02:56 PM

I had to..

MMJ, Neil Young, Arcade Fire, U2, Soundgarden, Daft Punk

How would they NOT play the 10th Anniv?

kydiddle · Jan 07, 2011, 03:23 PM

I can't deal with these speculations. MMJ will be there and all you effers better be, too.

If Radiohead plays, too, my head will explode. Freaking explode.

Hopefully in the vicinity of Nicole Atkins.

I had to...

i'm not a big festival gal and have yet to go to a 'roo .. which is funny b/c it's about an hour from my hometown. the biggest 'fest' (totally not a fest) that i've been to is a few moe.downs ( & snoe.down). even with the boys (potentially) playing b'roo .. i'm still not so sure. seeing my favorite bands with 50k other folks just doesn't sound fun. pls to convince me otherwise?

i will say though .. road tripping with penny down to the dirty could be fun

i'm definitely a fence sitter .. plus there are phish summer tour plans to consider. damn you awesome music !!

If MMJ is on the bill Im there. Also, Soundgarden would be a MAJOR plus. Neil Young? Love him, one of my all time favs, but if its not with Crazy Horse, not worth what he charges. But in Festival, all bets are off.

Roos only 5 hours for me so Im there.

Brooke, you would totally dig on the Roo. It's an experience. The vibe is different from any other fest I've been to.

CTdeadhead · Jan 07, 2011, 04:02 PM

Looked into it a bit, last year bands were announced in early Feb. Looks like historically speaking it'll be another month before its announced.

kydiddle · Jan 07, 2011, 04:35 PM

Brooke....you have to go. I'm making you. End of discussion.

FiddleCastro · Jan 07, 2011, 04:57 PM

road trip from NYC...um...can you drive?
i haven't had a car in 8 years but this would be perfect to break out my mad highway driving skills...and we can get one of those GPS things with the sexy british lady talking voice who tells us 'turn right, stay on Rte 80 for 8 thousand miles, oh wait, reconfiguring'...and we can eat cheetos and take bong hits and listen to America's greatest hits..and stop at one of those Sonics and order tator tots for breakfast....(alright alright)....i'll stop...

i hate bonnaroo--it's too big and there are too many stinky, sweaty, smelly kids there who love bad music, but i will go again if the boys play...but i'll have to camp VIP because i need to shower and shave my armpits..every day

br00ke · Jan 07, 2011, 05:48 PM

yes ... i've got mad driving skills, in fact i LOVE driving!! and yes to VIP camping. i was thinking in the back of my mind ... "if i go, it best be VIP" ;D

and just b/c i have to share this and don't know where to put it ...

a typo from paris with love .. alot of love !!!

yeahhhh .. that's supposed to read "harddrive". i laughed so hard i literally cried

Eating Cheetos and driving is a baaad idea, doing bong hits is much safer. The best part about eating cheetos is licking the cheese off my fingers, every time I do it my wife backhands me because she can't handle the lip smackin.

ALady · Jan 07, 2011, 06:12 PM

VIP is not a question.

ralph · Jan 07, 2011, 06:18 PM

Bonnaroo should be a nice warm up for the real deal - the Australian 2011 tour!!!!

kydiddle · Jan 07, 2011, 06:42 PM

HAHAHA! Penny Lane.

We will need to start a huge discussion about this when they announce the lineup/tickets are purchased. If my car is still alive, we'll road trip it (can you drive stick?) If not, we'll rent a car or walk or thumb with an overweight trucker who wants to braid our hair.

ALady · Jan 07, 2011, 06:49 PM

I just can't see them playing Waka and not playing Roo, you know?

Oh thank goodness, my idea of camping is staying at the holiday inn. ;D

Haha! Not to sound like a priss, but when I went to 'Roo in 09, we stayed in a hotel. I don't mind camping, but we didn't know what to expect and decided not to. We drove into the fest and stayed all day and night and took naps under the tree (ha) and would go back to the room, sleep for a couple hours, stock up on bottled water, shower and go back to the farm. Roo is soooooo huge that it seems less like camping and more like those Japanese hotel capsules. But I'm game for anything...I can't wait to plan this shiiiizzzzzz.

tdb810 · Jan 07, 2011, 08:55 PM

Me likey Japanese hotel capsules.
