Thursday: Didint do much, set up camp. Watched "Tortured Soul". They just wouldent let go of the crowd. So alive, just tearing it up.

Friday: Woke up late, stayed at camp till the heat left. Watched the last half of "oysterhead" AMAZING! Then stayed for "Tom Petty" Show started late, and left, i felt, early. Then i went back to camp.

Saturday: Watched last of "Beck" awesome puppet show lol. Stayed for "Radiohead" OMG so lost in the musc. Amazing, amazing.

Sunday: Watched "Matisyahu", but of course. Crazy show, very alive. Left early after that show.

Monday: Slept in the airport, and caught my flight back. Amazing weekend!

I dont see the enjoyment of wadeing through hurds of people in 100 degree weather with no shade probably drunk and stoned trying to get to 3 stages at the same time because the lineup pits all the bands i wanna see against each other. I am a fan of low key advents without all the publicity. Where i can chill out catch all the music i want to see with out conflicting times.

If i ended up at bonnaroo i would have prolly done nothing more then pop from site to site making friends. I would have only gone to catch tunes during the cover of darkness.





maybe I'm getting old, but I agree 100%

I haven't been back to the 'Roo in two years, not because of a bad experience, but mainly because I can't be bothered.....that and the line-ups don't thrill me as much these days.

I'm glad all went well down there and a blast was had by all the humanity, but I'll take my festie experiences on the smaller side.

Gosh its been three years for me already!!! But yeah imo it's not wurth it to me either. I can hit up 5 or six really good solo shows for the same price and hit up smaller outside events along the way with out all my time, energy ,and money

oooooooo boogats, yellow geltabs? damn, were they good?
knew i shoulda went.
Radiohead was slow huh. I've been to one Radiohead show.
It was in Grant park in Chicago, best fucking show ive ever seen.

i wanted to go to the roo this year but couldnt make it.
i went to the first three and told myself i would never go back but
the line up this year seemed the best ever to me.
its a great time and an even better memory.
there are some drawbacks to a big fest but they are inevitable with the benifits it provides.
definitley glad ive had the experience and recomend it to anyone
whos into that sort of stuff.

I just got in as well.I met a few shroomerites there.They were all kickass people.

Claypool was really good with skerik,Gabby lala and the drummers.Better that show than Oysterhead I think.

I had a great time. We got a good camp site. Had a sweet tent/tarp shade city. Getting there early on thursday and setting up in the camping only area is key. We could see the main stage from our camp.

Great music, good times, potent drugs.

Was year 4 in a row and ill be back next year as long as the lineup doesnt suck.

Had a fucking amazing time! Was just stoned most of the time, though on Saturday I candy-flipped or hippy-flipped or whatever and saw the Superjam and Sasha, which was without a doubt the highlight of my time at Roo.

Anyone from camp Goodhead or Pussygalore?

I can't believe nobody has mentioned Phil Lesh & Friends' awesome show. Two fuckin amazing sets.

Set I:
Uncle John's Band
Cumberland Blues
Big River
Scarlet Fire Jam
All Along the Watchtower
I Know You Rider


Set II:
Shakedown Street
New Speedway Boogie
then it gets a little blurry from there but I can tell you there was a great cover of Gimme Shelter, followed by Not Fade Away and Midnight Hour, with a chunk of The Other One thrown in there somewhere.

Encore: Box of Rain, of course. It was nice to see the emotion on Phil's face as he played it on Father's day.

At some point during the second set it started to downpour. Like torrential shit. A lot of people left, but there was nothing that was gonna take me away from Phil.


Bonnaroo 06 was definitely a blast.

Yeah, Phil and Friends was awesome! Joan Osborne can really sing and she's goddamn sexy. :smile: And I was so glad it rained, it cleared out the field of the pussies...

Other highlights:
Toubab Krewe on Friday night
Robert Randolph (G.Love guested)
The Hunab Kru breakdancers from Asheville
The Gypsy Hands tribal belly dancers
Cypress motherfuckin' Hill
Radiohead rocked
The Fire Garden was awesome
Soulive
Bela Fleck and the Flecktones

and the two best musical moments:
Sonic Youth!
Friday Night hip hop (Lyrics Born, Common, and Blackalicious)


Kickass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Five years in a row and I'm going back next year. It's superhot, dusty, expensive, lots of walking, scheduling conflicts, etc. but those are just minor hurdicles on the road to ecstacy (the state, not the drug). Bonnaroooooooooooooooo

The best moments at roo for me musically was EASILY Radiohead, Phil Lesh and the Biscuits. I think the three of them put on such stellar shows for those 3 i felt like the crowd shut up and gave them thier undivided attention and really got lost.

The biggest disappointment for me was Oysterhead, the sound was fucking crap, they really put like no effort into making that shit sound good and trey was a fucking mess half the time, he was playing sloppily, i mean towards the end it was really good. Army on ecstacy was the shit. but overall i expected a lot more and trey single handedly fucked it up for me.

Overall the weeked was really great. I met 4 or 5 shroomerites and one of my biggest regrets of the weekend was not hanigng out with them more.

How far back were you from the stage during Oysterhead? I was front row (had to wait through all of Steel Pulse and a half hour prior to get that spot), and the sound was pristine (well, obviously).

I had a pretty good time. My highlights were Phil Lesh, Bela Fleck, the superjam consisting of Trey, Mike Gordon & Benevento Russo Duo (w/ a surprise appearance by Phil Lesh), and Tom Petty. There were LOTS more bands that I liked when I went two years ago but I still had fun. Some pics:

Oysterhead:



Yee olde mushroom fountain:



We were lucky enough to find a stream right bu our camp site. Bathing there was the bes tthing I did for myself the whole weekend.



Phil Lesh & Friends:



Enjoying the shade:



At one point either people got much smaller or objects got much bigger:

i had a wonderful time without any real drugs :smile:

i reallly loved phil lesh and friends, but the rain kinda did me in and i left that show a half hour early...

radio head and moe were fucking amazing, as well as sasha's set, even came back and threw down sphongle for an encore :smile:!

i managed to find not only my friends from home, but lots of shroomites, and a few friends that i only see every year at bonnaroo :smile:!

monday was awesome as always.
i was going to leave at like 9am, but said fuck it
managed to find my friends from tenessee who camped down the street from me. all monday we just walked around looking for ground scores and what not. found myself a tight ass bubbler and a reallly fancy hitter, never used... and managed to score 2 easy ups :smile:

i was however disapointed that while i was walking around, people were robbing other peoples tents blind, including security guys just ransacking peoples stuff and tents. also saw 2 kids straight up go into some dudes tent, take well over $500 and his batteries and other shit...

i was calling them out for it, but in reality i couldnt really do anything :frown:


the shroomery camp was a damn good time, and i was glad to see so many of you irl.

im sorry to say that the weather did not allow the floating of the shroomery banner for more than half a day :frown: and that the octipus weighted tooo much, even filled with helium, to fly.

however somehow it made it to the main stage for phil lesh, and was dancing in the crowd!, they had it on the screens and everyhing!
