Anyone planning on going this year? I'm volunteering with a couple friends of mine. I volunteered in 09 and it was one of the coolest experiences I've ever had. 70,000 people(really interesting people and good vibes), awesome music and tons of drugs. If anyone wants some tips or wants to meet up and chill let me know. They are slowly releasing the lineup as of yesterday around noon. And also, volunteer is the way to go, you just have to make a deposit ($250 last year, not sure what it will be this year) but you get refunded and you get awesome privileges. From what i've seen so far it's finna be crazy again this year. So psyched! i cant wait til june

Here is a link to the volunteer page: http://www.bonnaroo.com/info/volunteer-info.aspx edit: posted the wrong link, props to mel_lonta_toda for the correct link
Its really simple to sign up, u just fill out a form online. It's not guaranteed, last year they selected about 300 volunteers i think. The sooner you sign up the better.

Yeah true, but Hov isn't in his prime anymore heh. Neither is Nas but he's one of my favorite rappers. Last year that had 3 six mafia or some other shitty rap group and they were terrible live.

Haha nope, last year we were smoking weed at our campsite and some of the volunteer leaders didnt give two-shits. They are really laid back people and me and my friend had no problem bringing some weed and some other good shit in.

too mainstream & too many undercovers from what i hear (at 'roo). but i'd go, given i had the right crew/money and also seeing that i've yet to attend a festie.
i also heard from the grapevine that paul mccartney was going to be there. i could be wrong though... but it'd be sweet to hear his Fireman stuff live

Yeah i'll agree they do have a lot of mainstream stuff but they usually have a pretty good underground selection. sound tribe sector nine was there last year thats pretty underground imo.
As for undercovers tho, you just have to watch out for the obvious signs. If your just bringing your own stuff in you had nothing to worry about. Sounds crazy but people were walking around yelling "where my nugs?" and "i got molly" etc. Dealing was everywhere and out in the open, except at Centeroo where the stages were (they check your bags). People were smoking weed in broad daylight and only dealers really had anything to worry about.

Yep, and they would normally just confiscate what you have and possibly kick you out of the festival. The TN state troopers are the real concern.
I was chilling outside my tent and a hippy with a backpack was crouched down beside a car selling another guy some mushrooms. the mounted police officers noticed it and went after him. they both take off and the hippy tosses his bag full of mushrooms, he was so quick that i didnt even notice. So the officers come over to me (i was like 20 feet away saw it all) and asked where the bag was. I said i had no idea and the cop searched around and found the shrooms underneath the tent next to me.

hahah i was just more accustomed to raves with people walking around yelling 'doses!' and whatnot that's on a much smaller scale though compared to festivals.
it's interesting watching things unfold in front of you though... like being on the lot at a Dead show

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

a friend of mine volunteered last year. they have you pay a deposit first, in case you don't reject your duties once there. but they refund it afterwards or something. there's probably more details on their website.
edit - i just looked it up, they say to contact them via email

Mel is right. The deposit is due by a certain date, usually 2-4 weeks before the festival starts. You get your refund a few days after the festival. I believe they have a few options for receiving and returning the deposit. The easiest is paypal but you have to have a verified bank account linked to it.
The volunteer work isn't very demanding. Usually you'll have a few 5-6 hour shifts for a total of ~15-25 hours. They give you meal tokens so you can get food from vendors. I worked for the rolling stones magazine booth in 09 and got to meet the publisher from the 90s. He wasn't very demanding about the work, i just had to go around and try to sell subscriptions and give away t-shirts. Got to work with 2 awesome girls that were working the same booth. We just took breaks and watched shows during our shift. Some of the jobs can be pretty hectic, especially if you work the information booths, you have to direct people to their location and stuff like that. It just depends on what job you get but u can ask for a preference, they'll tell you all of that stuff in the e-mail tho.

What are you talking about? Got a link to the law or anything? I would imagine it would be OK becuase it's a sactioned, legal, commercial event. The community has an economic interest in this event. I would think that the law you are talking about is geared toward stopping rogue groups of large people there for no real purpose. But what the fuck do i know?
