True... well my only festival experience was in Ireland... where it rained the whole time and was pretty damn cold :eek: and we didn't get into crowds at any stage either... so baby wipes were fantastic

Sure sign you're getting old when the first thing that comes into your head when presented with the idea of camping is 'what? No shower?'

A bit of muck generally doesn't kill ya.

And how the hell do ya get mud in yer arse? :eek:

There WILL be other shows... whether this year or next. So bye bye Bonnaroo, everyone have fun and enjoy getting mud and dirt out of your eyes, ears, mouth and ass for weeks afterwards

I'm with you... I mean no one knows 100%, who could? unless your in the band BUT I'm pretty sure we'll have concert opportunities either on 2008 or 2009 and when I weigh going to Bonnaroo and spending all that cash and not be able to shower or wait until they announce another show.. the choice for me is clear.. I just dont see why a few are making such a big deal about people choosing to wait and sit this one out until there is other shows... I'm comfortable with my decision and confident they'll play somewhere else sooner than we all think

Not really... that's why I said I would go camping no problem, I've gone camping before, to the woods, to the beach etc... it's a whole different story when you are out camping under that heat for 4 days with no shower and in a concert environment....

.... I could be getting old I guess... after all I am turning 30 this year ...

if you mean it's ME making a big deal about people choosing to wait and sit this one out... well you obviously haven't listened to a word I said

I thought you finally understood where I was coming from a few posts ago.

I know you just quoted that bit... but if you read the rest of the post you're referring to... you'd know I'm agreeing with ya. Baby wipes are JUST FINE when there's no sweat involved

I'm just picturing certain people here having to say go fishing or do anything outdoorsy... :eek: 'but look... it's muck... I need to go shower... where's the shower... what? No shower???'

:eek:

Here's a picture from my one camping festival experience and what I have in my head... which obviously won't be how it is

yeah i know.. but it tells everything you need to know..

also whats wrong with doing this:-

hi folks, get your memberships up-to-date as we are announcing tourdates on 1st March for a full North American tour including the south, north and middle... cut off date for members to be active is Feb 29th.

instead of

" tweet, members please be up-to-date.. new things..." and then its a book.

:rolleyes:

ahah... that's funny. And I agree

NY PJ1 · February 2008

the email and the election and the fact that they have their equipment out
all leads to the facts of more shows

Nope :(

Was gonna and have been planning it in my head for months and I'd still love to... til I realised it was completely unrealistic

I could afford it... but it would be my only trip this year... and I'd rather have 4 or 5 trips closer to home than one big one far away. There are also other reasons that I'd like to keep my trips closer to home this year anyway... well one!

I'm not being smug, I'm just making sure Metallica never sees a dime of my money. I would really like to see especailly PJ, MMJ, Raconteurs, Death Cab, and some of the older acts.

However, Metallica is not getting a dime from me and I'm not getting into that crowd to see PJ when I'll catch them next time on tour and MMJ will prolly tour for sure since they have a new album coming. Bonnaroo has turned into such a joke. Sorry to see it come to this, and I'm not trying to be smug, but not goin for various reasons and I'm only like 3 hrs away.

It's sad, it really is what it has turned into. I'm all for balancing making a profit, putting on a good show, appealing to multiple musical and fan bases, but Metallica, Kanye, 4 days of 90 degree heat, walking 7 miles a day, and the increased scrutiny this year on having a good time with various intoxicants (all natural of course) that will obviously come with Mainstream crowds, no thanks. This will turn into a disaster this year, just a guess.

Can everybody PUHLEEEEZE stop tempting fate?
