some of you have a very difficult time accepting others opinions.. my opinons were not seen as an attack on any group of people until 2 hours ago when yall started it all up...
in the last 20 posts like 15 are about me and my opinions.. there was none of that before yall showed up.. just a convesation, debating different sides of an issue.. maybe we should start a thread about me so you guys dont have to clutter up our discussions
What do you mean before yall showed up? You think there was a group of people who banded up and decided to come crash krazy keith's party? Yep, that's definitely it. Watch out man, we're going to join up with the Bright Eyes fans and tear nuts up at Roo.
edit: the point is that it's your words causing the problem...I'm sure everybody has been reading this thread all along.

Because he is funny. You are an annoying bigot. Yes, I'm throwing insults like a 12 year old. Don't blame me, blame MTV.

I totally understand what you're saying....maybe you don't. The line you are drawing between the "mainstream" bands at Roo, and actual mainstream bands is tenuous at best. The big problem is that you are using that weak logic to imply that the mainstream element will lead to the death and destruction of Roo. If these bands were actually mainstream I probably just would have passed through this thread and said whatever, but you are basically just making shit up.
On the other hand, not talking to you is a very good idea. See, I complimented one of your opinions. I hope you can now sleep at night.

Are you seriously quoting positive things people posted about you? cmon guy, end it already. You bring a lot of good things to this board, and a lot of people agree with things you are saying, and a lot of people don't, thats just how the world is, you dont have to keep trying to prove some point, cause it really doesnt matter.....what really matters is we need Superfly to announce round four so we have somethin new to talk about. ;D
Post by keithk1055 on Mar 28, 2006 15:09:11 GMT -5
for the last time it is not about the bands that are at roo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its about the fucking progression towards the mainstream over the course of years........ some people are just too thick headed to get through to ....oh well im done trying to explain my self to those that arent capable of original thoughts
Post by keithk1055 on Mar 28, 2006 15:11:47 GMT -5
yep and im happy to to talk about round 4 in the round four thread... and we were happy to talk about the mainstream influence in this thread until recently...oh well.. im about to just observe the info here at inforoo, as the crowd im worried about comin to roo is allready ruining things here...i wish people would just grow up... if you dont have something to add to the conversation but insults just sit there and be quiet... you can disagree with someone with out calling them wrong, loony, and discriminating

Does anyone remember when MTV was "cool"? I remember as a kid watching MTV and hearing about all these new bands, and through them I got into other new music.
In fact if it wasn't for VH1 I probably would have been much older before I got into Pink Floyd. VH1 used to show the The Wall every once and a while and once I saw it I knew I had to find more Pink Floyd.
Through MTV I got my first dose of PE which led me to a lot of different good hip-hop (I miss Yo! MTV Raps). First place I also heard Nirvana (even though I lived in Seattle). AAhh the good old days when MTV wasn't a dirty word.
You're not talking about the bands, you're talking about the progression. The progression of what exactly? If not the bands, has the Sonic Forrest gotten too mainstream? I mean I know the fact that all of the "trees" were shaped like Mc Donalds arches last year pissed some people off but it's not that bad!

Please please please, if anyone else hears any rumors that regard Bonnarooo and are not music related, KEEP THEM TO YOURSELF!!!! I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but I feel like I speak for most Roo veterans.
ummmmmmm i think maybe your looking for the music section... this IS the general section of inforoo that deals with topics of exactly this nature.....and also as a roo veteran i would like to inform you that you certainly dont speak for me, you need to work on speaking intelligently for yourself before ya try that... although now that you are here to predict the future and provide us with all of the answers i guess we dont need to talk about it.. thanx for clearing all that up.... if yer so tired of hearing about it why did ya click on the link that said MTV???? i could see yer gripe if the thread had been named breaking bonnaroo news or something....also i think it is important to all of us...the mtv bands are allready infiltrating roo, i know it wont be long before mtv media and mtv fans start showing up (between death cab, radiohead, matisyahu etc... i think this might be the year it happens).....a lot of people who love roo for what we have come to know as roo finds this very disturbing... i know of many people who are going to waka or 10klf to specifically avoid this "evoloution of diversity" to many of us it is less an evoloution of diversity then it is an elevation of profits... i think the influx of the "new crowd" is of concern to everyone who was perfectly happy with what roo was/maybe still will be... i hope that the "progression" stops here before tool, depeche mode, and madonna are headlining what used to be "our place" away form the mainstream and its media giants... just one mans opinion
Not about the bands at roo huh? This is your first post in this thread. The crux of what you're saying is that certain bands at this years roo may draw this crowd you're talking about. Also note that you spent the first few sentences insulting someone. Troublemaker

Please enlighten me as to what I'm not following. Keith says that bonnaroo is going maintstream, but he's not talking about the bands...so I made a joke/sarcastic remark about what possibly could be going mainstream
I'm being sarcastic too Doug. I agree with what you said 100%.
Ah, k...sorry about that...didn't see your edit before I posted...damn sonic forrest...next will be the silent disco and the DJ will be that annoying sprite mascot!

the conversation evolves as it goes...you come in and make uneducated comments about the last post in the thread, i call you out so you go to the beginning and make uneducated staements about my first ppost, i dont mean to be rude so i wont comment on your intelligence any more, i think it speaks for its self
also if you notice that staement is about the evloloutin towrads mainstream... yes bands were named as part of the discussion but it was clearly about the lineup changes roo has undergone over time not just this yeras lineup... seriously dude just grow up and let it go....as much as i wanna just ignore ya for some reason i feel i have to defend myself against you prepub (or mentally handicapped)instigators

Yo, keith and everyone else on this thread. I think I was the first on the thread to start any hating. Keith I disagree with the whole Karma thing. I have exalted you a couple of times. I think you have some great opinions and everyone is entitled to theirs. But everybody needs to stop this with this chain of comments, because it isn't getting anywhere. If you think the next time you post something it is going to stop the argument, guess what it's not. So everyon should just let this one die.

Uneducated. I'm uneducated because I say MTV fans don't think Sonic Youth is cool. Please educate me Keith. Go find some 15 year old Brittany fans who even know SY, or would pay $200 because that super cool band Radiohead is playing. You're talking about two different worlds. I know you can't see that, so I'm really just wasting everybody else's time by typing this, so sorry to the rest of you.

here is a copy of my post form another conversation in a different thread that was soon detroyed with immaturity, it was posted this morning long before this erupted but i think it applies well, it does rehash some things and it will be the last thing i say on the subject... there maybe a little lighthearted jesting in there.. im suree most of us can recognize that for what it is.. and some of you will be unable to
yep yep.. your preaching to the choir... i agree with ya... have these bands at coachella and lollapaozza not at roo....also i wonder why it is so acceptable to just stragiht out flame (calling for suicides and what not) ove mcr but when someone says something that isnt even inflammatory about radiohead, dcfc. , common,or matisyahu....everyone gets their panties in a bunch(if ya dont like mcr then dont go see them, its people like you that cant take diversity that give roo fans a bad name:) (see how dumb it sounds?))...again it seems that this always boils down to the "jam band" issue...its not even what it is about... as i said before noone is bitching about j5, lyrics born, shooter jennings, yonder mountain, g love, atmosphere, etc.... these are not jambands.. noone is being harsh on them, its because the carson dalys of the world are too busy watching matisyahu on trl and they are ignoring decent music...so if the music does not fit into a genere that fits in at roo (not just jam band, more of a non mainstream thing) then why have it? why bring the new crowd? there are plenty of places for these cats to perform why is roo having them?diversity? i think not... it is 2 reasons imo... 1. roo did not sell out last year and they need to try to sell more... but the reason they didnt sell out last year was alot of peopl decided they didnt like the mainstream direction roo had taken(so what do they do? they continue that direction with hthe most mainstream headliners ever seen anywhere near roo...) and now they have "Reduced capapcity" but they only reduced it to the amount of people that ateended last year.. so basically same number of people jjust got rid of the tickets they couldnt sell, and the raised the price to make up for it 2. mainstreamers will spend more of mommys money (and more on the things roo gets paid off of instead of suriving on shrooms and water)then a hippy that scrapes together enough to visit a few festivals a year oh well greed has a way of fucking everything up... luckily it seems that as asoon as the mainstream eats up one event 2 more pop up and start the trend again, in 5 years bonnaroo will be having madonna, mcr, and justin timberlake, and dont forget the extravaganza on thursday night where they will be holding the finals for american idol!!! and people will be saying what the hell happened to waka and 10k, they used to be so good now they are losing their roots... i think i will go to keithkfest instead i know it sounds harsh but it seems as the number of mainstream bands goes up so does the price.....it wont be long before the people who actaully support roo aare going to go elsewhere...summercamp, waka, 10k(until mtv realizes they are cool and it starts all over)...... we will see how long these mainstreamers support the bonnaroo scene... they only like it because someone tells them its cool..once they all show up and drive the cool somewhere else its the end "sad but true".... hey maybe we will be hearing those lyrics at roo soon... im sure lars would love to help out the tapers
