Yeah I can see them doing this so DEA can track people. Don't think the DEA isn't above it either, its the fucking DEA and Bonnaroo isn't exactly a fest run by heads for heads either.

Maybe when they see a car come through with suspected drug dealers they keep track of their rfid chip so they can know when they are in the center or not, and if then plan their drug busts based on that knowledge

You've got to be pretty fucking dense to deny that they would use this to track people. It's entirely possible.

LOL. Oh noes! Soon they'll have a dataset! With that they can make charts and graphs?!?!?!?!?! Down with NWO. Down with Excel!
But they have a gate in the middle of the festival where all the music is with security like you said. So they will know when you're out and about and when you're in the middle. And this will make it much easier for them to nab large drug suppliers. Although people will still get around it. Idk...it's just a bad direction to go in and i'm gonna smash my wristband with a hammer if i go
Smash it and see if they let you in.

They could do background checks on all ticket holders, then when someone comes through and is scanned they could do a shake down on them based on their information and call it random. Would be a easy way to nab dealers and/or people with criminal records. Anonymous has been defeated.

Seriously?
Tickets were bar coded before.
They could have done this before.

Were each and every one scanned upon entry? RFID one's will be.

Christ there are some paranoid motherfuckers in here. So let's say you buy 10 tickets on a card, how THE FUCK will they know who the other 9 people in the group are? Hmmm? If anything, they'll be using them to keep track of how many people are at a given area at a given time. Like someone said, better accounting. They can't know who the holder of EVERY wristbands is, it's impossible. They can't know exactly where you are at all times unless there are readers every 5 feet that you're forced to pass through.
Also, who wants free tickets? http://www.dealextreme.com/p/125khz-rfid-card-copier-duplicator-with-writable-rfid-card-and-keychain-standalone-operation-17230
-------------------- Did he dream about dragons? Did he dream about deer? Did he whisper he names of friends who were near? What songs did they play, and how far away? Why did he whisper, why did she scream? What does the sound of a screen door mean? Who talks on the hill? Who goes to the cellar, can you feel the chill? Where does the river, when will the wind? How far are the mountains? Where do they end? Why would the church? Did the service begin? Tell me who died, and tell me who cried. Help me hide in the skin of a deer, my zippered-up bag in the mouth of a stag so swiftly I go through rows of does, it flows, it flows, it flows, it flows all over the hill where the green grass grows.

bonnaroo was much different just a few years ago, now all they have to do is set up rfid scanners at various locations and they track your every movement, on the way to the festie and while your there, then when you're leaving... it's like tracking cows, cows carrying illegal drugs
