blainesanders · May 23, 2006, 11:29 PM

"It's like they made this schedule with me in mind. There is not one time slot where I was like "SHIT, I'm going to miss......." I'm going to get to see EVERYONE I really really want to see without having to miss a bit of thier show. Thank you Bonnaroo Scheduler Man.......this bud's for you, you are a True American Hero."

I FEEL THE SAME WAY MAN!!!

i have to make alot of difficult decisions. Stephen Malkmus and Son Volt are playing at the same time? I could do half and half but i just don't like doing that.

Let me help you out in your time of need friend.......[size=12]Malkmus[/size], I've seen Son Volt and they are good but they aren't even close to being one of the better shows I've been to. Plus..............It's FUCKING Stephen Malkmus man, are you kidding me, you CAN'T miss a second of it.

I saw Son Volt last year, and I was VERY disapointed. THey played every song, it seemed, of the new album, and NO old stuff. I love the 1st 2 albums, cant get into the more recent stuff. GO with Malkmus! :)

See you up front for this 3 hour marathon of an MMJ show! It is going to be awesome!
(((((((MMJ)))))))

yeah, i've been leaning towards Malkmus, i will probably be able to see Son Volt again.

stephen malkmus is a legend. these fine folks before me have led you in the right direction. :)

TEO · May 25, 2006, 05:56 AM

I wonder what time we should get there to get the rail for the MMJ set? I was thinking 10:00, but don't know if that is too early. Any thoughts?

Specialist · May 25, 2006, 11:14 AM

i'm probably gonna see an hour or two of Tom Petty and then head over, i'd say that 10 would be early enough.

tomEisenbraun · May 25, 2006, 01:49 PM

i think i'm gonna stake out that tent all day long. it opens up with andrew bird then devendra, and nickel creek a little later on. and oh yeah, cat power's in the middle. so that shouldn't eb too bad. i might venture out to robert randolph after nickel creek, but i'm gonna be around the front of that tent all night for the jacket.

Got to go with Malkmus here. It's not the original Son Volt and it's the new stuff. Jay Farrar is Son Volt; you need to wait to see him solo tour (which is pretty awesome).

if you're going to bonnaroo, i'm so jealous of you it's not even fucking funny.

but i need to feel more bonnaroo excitement. i have to live vicariously through those of you who are going. do you want me to make an ec list of essential and helpful bonnaroo elements?

cuz i will. but only if you thought that would be useful...

darkglow · May 28, 2006, 04:19 PM

turns out i'm having to go on my own this year.. and this is my first time going.. so Megan your list will be helpful to me.

also anyone of you other jacket fans i've met.. (or even the ones i havent met) care for some company?

EC · May 28, 2006, 11:03 PM

Quoteturns out i'm having to go on my own this year.. and this is my first time going.. so Megan your list will be helpful to me.

word.

1. sunscreen. don't even gripe about it. bring it and wear it.
2. rubber boots. the brown variety.
3. wet naps, or something similar. there are no showers at bonnaroo, folks. none. you can hose yourself down, but it sucks.
4. a good tent. if you have a tent pre-1998, people will trip over your lines. invest in a good tent.
5. food. bring food. eat out of your tent whenever you can.
6. money. you'll need it for stuff. like beer and eating.
7. camera. you'll be very pissed if you don't.
8. blow-up mattress - if it rains (and it will) your tent is vulnerable. it's vulnerable anyhow because everyone's walking over it. if you don't have something that goes above ground level, you will be sleeping in a puddle, and as my good friend jen can attest, that SUCKS.
9. let me talk again about suncreen. you will be fucked.
10. no matter what, you keep drinking that damn water all day. if you're going to an mmj show at midnight, and you've spent the day in the sun, and the show is three hours long, you will die if you haven't kept rehydrating yourself. don't be a jerk and drink all the water you can.
11. those little packs of kleenex. they're sexcellent about the porta-potties, but there's only so much you can do. don't get caught in one without some kleenex.
12. need to stress again that the wet naps are an awesome tool.

i think those will help. if i think of more i'll post them. get there early to avoid 5 hour entrance lines. no jokes. get there early. and just go with the flow because there's a lot going on there, but it's fucking. awesome.

and i'm sad to not go. but i'll live. ;)

meth....dont do meth the whole night before whilst driving, and dont snort a big line during the wait in line. you will be fucked, and you wont have a good time.

dont do meth, and drink loads of water. bring a tarp to protect from the sun whilst sitting at camp, and dont forget the water! those are my tips. :)

OK rats, clear this up for me b/c I am confused. When is the best time to do meth then?

any time is fine, as long as you dont have anything important to do. cool weather is also preferrable. if you have time to waste, once again, that is a preferrable time.

I will be around the front of the tent from about 10:00 on Fri. nite for MMJ club meet up. Watch for Eisenbraun's post if he establishes a diff. meet up at a diff. time.

Specialist · May 30, 2006, 02:21 PM

get there Wed. night if you don't want to wait in line at all. I left Bowling Green, Kentucky at 11pm on Wed. and was in my campsite by 1:30am.
