Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo in 2013!!
Nah, not Mumford and Sons. The bottom left that's exposed as well as the top right don't look much like that. The "N" for sons looks curved instead of straight like the other N's on the poster. And the second letter doesn't look like a "U".
You realize that's just a row of question marks under that black mark, right?
No, at first I didn't as you can see by 40 people pointing it out. I didn't know they did question marks last year and I didn't assume they were question marks because why would they put a black bar over question marks? Seems redundant...why not just use the question marks?

I think you guys are over reacting a little. Kanye is a great get, but then the lineup drops off to bands that play everything all the time and club level bands. I mean, they're great bands, but the lineup is totally apple-bottomed.

You can't just let people be happy/excited about something?
I know for myself and probably Flanzo this is huge news because NY/NYC doesn't usually get great festivals so this lineup being in my backdoor as opposed to flying out of state is awesome.

Some of us are likely not going to be attending multiple festivals or have time/money for multiple big shows (I am basically an indentured servant for 2013). This gives people like that the chance to see multiple great bands in a short time period.
I mean, I might not even get to go to Roo this year, so the fact that this lineup is strong is enough to get me excited.

Yep. The best word for this lineup is "solid." I feel like it's a pretty comprehensive collection of this year's "festival" bands. You know, the ones that appear on LOTS of lineups, inbetween the bigger "gets?" Few to no exclusives or rarities, I think this is a lineup composed almost entirely of Who's Playing Festivals This Summer.

And the conflicts are gonna be stupid.
Whats the curfew for the fesitval?
So the lineup isnt as awesome as we make it out to be or the lineup is so good there will be so many conflicts?
And clearly you aren't a rapist (I hope) but the way you pop into any thread where a woman happens to be lamenting her lack of ride to Bonnaroo and tell them to come hop on your bus sounds extremely rapey.

Exactly what I like about it.
I hate Kanye, but really really like almost every other band on that lineup.
So what if they are bands that tour clubs all the time? Nice to see them all in one place!

Perfectly said, but I am a-ok with that. It'll be a GREAT few days and will help with conflicts the following weekend.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

I just appreciate it for being a good lineup. I've never been one to weigh exclusive shows that heavily. Keep in mind this was essentially a small two-day festival that is trying to make itself into one of the big boys. This was a great first step, IMO.

I'm a little bummed about the conflicts too.. I really liked how in the past few years their weren't any conflicts at all.. Really made this fest stand out to me... But did you look at that lineup? Randalls Island aint that big either, if you really want to you can catch everything you intend on seeing.

Oh, I have zero problems with this lineup. I just don't get why people are losing their minds. It's a nice fest, full of bands that we'll all likely be sick of by the end of festival announcement season. I might try and make it, and if they end up doing single day tickets then I'll definitely do at least one day.

Yeah, I mean Electric Zoo has 4 stages (3 tents and the main stage). Gov's Ball only used 2 previously. I never had an issue bouncing from tent to tent at E-Zoo, and I can't imagine I will at this, either.
Will you miss a couple acts you really wanted to see? Sure, but that's not the end of the world, either.
Who took a sh*t on your waffles this morning, champ?
Conflicts? Yeah, let's cancel any festival that has conflicts...........
The "curfew" is 11pm, I believe. Any other questions you little ray of sunshine, you?
Simmer down. All I said was the conflicts were gonna suck. I didn't say the festival should be cancelled. I think the lineup is great. I should have edited "And" out of my post.
I'm hoping this is a good indicator of the Bonnaroo undercard seeing as this is the week before. That whole red section is glorious.
That's why I was SO bummed when I thought Hob's post was accurate about the days. "What?! All the best are on Saturday and I'll miss it?!?!"
So I checked the website to find info about single day tickets and saw this:
Single day tickets may or may not become available at a future date. To ensure you are able to get into the festival, we advise that you purchase a 3-day ticket now!
So I guess I'll just get my full ticket and just not go Saturday...

People are mostly overreacting because its the first festival out of the gate... And its damn solid... I've been jocking this festival for two years now because its so damn easy for me to get to and I've made alot of friends with people at Founders Entertainment by volunteering for them last year.
