Odd, mistake-ish or just unexplained things provided at Roo...
- What was up with the playground? At first I thought it was just hard to get to...
- Notice how the key on the map said "Parade Route" but there wasn't one marked and of course there wasn't a parade, just stationary floats...
- Anyone else catch that the Sunday Bonnaroo Beacon had the wrong date on it?
- Tower did a pretty good job managing the signing lines... but they got thrown with a few cancellations. Of note, Sonic Youth cancelled saying their bus broke down, but the story was later revealed to be bullsh_it.
- Was the Tiki Bar ever actually a bar?
- Notice how only two tents got new signs this year?
- It's the magic disappearing/re-appearing Lucero act!
Did anyone notice the pink spot on the floor? It was just a circle of grass painted pink... Maybe there was something supposed to be there but they changed places?
Maybe it was just me, but where the hell were people getting the Beacon?
regarding the playground.... Joel (teine) said it had to be closed off cause the mulch that they ordered to be put down turned out to not be ISO certified and there wasn't enough time to get new mulch.

Only at the Relix tent this year. I think Relix flexed their muscles this year, getting Harp kicked out and making it so you had to go to their tent for copies. Last year you could get Beacon copies anywhere...

Did anyone meet the guy dressed up as a Wizard selling/passing out shots of absinthe?
Yes. My friends bought some. $50 buck. He told them to dilute it with water. He also said he made it in the bathtub. Smells like BS to me.
You cant make real stuff in the tub. People have been reverse engineering the shit to attempt to get the real recipe back for years. I understand its very complex. Sounds like he was selling high proof back woods homemade fogot the word for it stuff.
i liked being in Shooter McGavin. Made me feel special, all warm inside. I think that if you name them the same each year, it's probably easier to navigate from year to year, methinks.

almost everything was "HUH?" to me. this was my first Roo and i am still trying to comprehend it all. i got lost in Centeroo a few times thursday nite and friday. the few signs that they do have are not very helpful. intentionally trippy i think.
i saw the pink circle also. was it a crop circle? when we were walking on it, i wondered why everyone seemed to not even notice it was there.
i got a 'Beacon' the first day and could not find another one all weekend. someone please scan and post them.
they definitly cut some trees down at the second stage. I think because so many people were climbing them last year.
It was like the Jungle Book during Modest Mouse last year. Some of those little fu*kers were "you're 100% certain going to die if you fall" high in those trees. While the shade was nice, that had to be a liability nightmare.

The Jack Johnson bootleg has a great bit on him acknowledging the climbers, "Okay, you've impressed us, now get down." Even more daring/stupid considering it was during a lightning storm.
they shoul wrap barbed wire around the tree like 15 feet up. one of those people is going to fall one day and land on someone else and roo could be done for all of us. 1 lawsuit of that nature and it could end. i know its just people having fun but you gotta draw the line when they start seriously endangering themselves and those below them. even if they only fell and hurt themself witnessing it would be enough to put a serious damper on my roo. oh well im suure it will still happen and ill just keep my fingers crossed that noone hurts themsleves
Did you guys notice that things looked a little old and tired? Like, why didn't they remake the Bobbleheads? Those things looked so sad, and one lost its body at some point during the weekend. And the Planet Roo hands and the floats were looking rough too.
