    yes...this is a different animal entirely.

    and i don't think i realized the primitive nature
    of this festival until just today.

    i'm thinking we are going to get another Lolla
    performance this year, though i could be wrong.
    Nice shirt.

    i have taken one of these things to the kentucky derby 8-10 times.....

    they are fucking great.....

    i have no problem reserving a seat for you....

    I'm actually from Louisville.....

    and you've been to the Derby and I have not.....

    That's kind of messed up, on my part. :)

    My parents did have awesome Derby parties back in the day, though.

    Just put it on the payment plan :D

    There is no fucking way I would go to this show, because the cost and inconvinence are not justified for the bands which are listed. Sorry but camping for 4 days to see PJ play a 2 or 3 hour set isn't worth the hundreds of dollars that would be spent. Plus, there will be other shows and the hundreds of dollars would fund many a great tailgates throughout the eastern and middle United States...

    You could make it an experience.....

    Nashville is a cool, very musical (not just country by a long shot) city, if you'd be willing to say "f the festival" aside from when the bands you like are playing. The people are very friendly, the food is fantastic (get some BBQ!), and there are music bars open all over the place. I believe there are quite a few blues & jazz bars as well, although not as many as in Memphis (another awesome city - though I've never been to that one).

    Then, you'd get to see a cool city you may not ever go to again, see PJ, eat some food, get treat with great southern hospitality, and maybe hear some rock/blues/jazz you wouldn't get to hear ordinarily. Plan that shit right, you will only be at the festival when you wanna be and you'll be out being awesome in downtown Nashville when "Ten Hairy Women" or whoever is onstage.

    I agree with all of that. Problem is I'm not going to spend over $200 on a ticket to the festival to explore Nashville and only catch a couple of bands while having to camp. I think if I'm going to explore the city and state of TN, money would be better spent forgetting about Bonnaroo and just experiencing the greatness of Tennessee.

    I say Speedy fires up the RV and we get a nice large Derby trip organized :D

    That (Derby) is not a bad idea either!

    I won't be at Bonnaroo either. It's too expensive, it'd be over $400 for the lady & I and plus we'll just be getting back from another trip on the Monday before. I've been to Nashville before, also.

    Bonnaroo is the weekend before a nice almost 2 week roadtrip from me and me lady for a wedding in Michigan. So not exactly sure I would be up for back to back adventures and definitely not at the prices being asked.

    get working on the Derby idea Speedy!!!
