Weed is expensive? Really? Hmm... I guess thats what life outside of BC is like.

Well the good shit is these days. I used to get good shit for $80 an oz. Regs was about $60 an oz.

I will see it's much stronger these days too though but we're talking $120 a quarter.

What you all pay in Canada?

rage patton

01-09-2009, 01:51 PM

Well, I actually don't smoke or buy weed... but from what I do know, for some of the best BC stuff its like... 30-40 bucks for an oz. (And that is in Canadian dollars)

i posted this under another thread and already got a zig ... the bands would appeal more to the people in this thread .. early waka announcement at www.wakarusa.com ... i like the early confirmations ... cr****

The Wakarusa lineup always kicks ass. They already have so many great bands confirmed and many of them are playing 2 sets or at least a late night set.

STS9
Galactic
Buckethead
Yonder Mountain (definitely check them out Josh since you like Avett)
Railroad Earth (same as above)
Steve Kimock
Perpetual Groove
Digable Planets (WTF? big surprise there)
Split Lip Rayfield (more great bluegrass)
Lucero
Boombox (Ohio represent!)
JFJO

This lineup already owns. If it weren't for school I'd be going to this.

Why are you guys thinking about bringing brownies and cookies on a plane? Don't you realize how many people have them for sale there. In 06 I had the strongest fucking brownies ever before the disco biscuits/ump late night set. All I had was a couple brownies for $5, I didn't smoke or drink much and I was realllllllllly fuckkkking high. They sell them on every street in every campground, just like all the drugs.

This isn't Coachella people. Let me put it in perspective for you:

Coachella = DEA

Bonnaroo = Tommy Chong + Tony Montana + Amy Winehouse + Trey Anastasio

Don't risk bringing anything on a plane because it will all be there (and then some) when you get there.

You bring up a good point. I am not about the psychidelics, but I like to smoke ALOT of weed, and finding it at bonnaroo might be kinda expensive. I also heard weed is the hardest drug to find at the roo. That is the only one I am really worried about.

I went to Vancouver a few years ago (05) and good weed was WAY more than $40 an ounce. It was more like $40 for 1/8 of an ounce. Since we were tourists you might think we got ripped off a little but I really don't think we did at all. We made good friends with some locals and I'm convinced we didn't pay much more than they paid. Obviously, we didn't bother with schwag. In other words, it was a little cheaper there than in most parts of US but not even close to that significant of a difference. It still takes a lot of time and work to grow no matter what country you're in.

AS far as party favors at Roo goes, you can usually find something within the first 15 minutes of arriving. Someone always walks by with something, but it was ridiculously hard to find green around our area last year, but other people I know of had no problems. No problems with prices either.

Speaking of which, I just bought some of the dankest fucking weed I've ever seen in my life. Tommy and Mark, that stuff I had in Vegas was like schwag compared to this. I hope they still have some of this left in a couple weeks so I can bring it to Phoenix. I'll bring some dank that weekend regardless, but this stuff specifically is eye-poppingly good.

Actually, It's Lightning Bolt. (No "e".) And I have a feeling you would quite like them. They are a two piece band. Bass and drums. (Yes, that is a bass. Not a guitar.)

v7BDZ7KyNRE

They played ATP New York last year. The one with My Bloody Valentine. I don't know exactly how to describe their music, but it is somewhere between noise rock and hardcore punk. They are know for their frantic live shows. I don't see how they would fit in at Bonnaroo, but I would love to see them.

Anxious for any kind of lineup, can't wait for Feb. 3rd. Anybody know why Coachella doesn't typically announce when they're announcing the lineup? It's frustrating.

Off to see Girl Talk in Des Moines. It'll at least be some fun amidst last night's 6" snowfall and all this cold weather. Have a happy weekend, BonnaCrew.

We know so many names playing Coachella? Seriously? Last year we knew WAY more, and in 07, WAY WAY WAY more. This year is pathetic. We know basically nothing. Oh, except The Killers are headlining. Woooooo!

No no I was comparing it to the Roo... we have about 20 confirmed-ish bands for Coachella but only about 5 for the Roo. And yeah last year was about the same amount for Coachella to be honest, but I wouldn't know how to go back and look that up...

rage patton

01-10-2009, 12:40 PM

20 confirmed acts? The only confirmed acts for Coachella I know are Buka Som Sistema (or something like that) and Fleet Foxes. By this time last year we had atleast The Breeders and Spiritualized, and many sources claiming Portishead were playing. This year have have no big confirmations.

01-10-2009, 04:13 PM

Tha Airborne Toxic Event is confirmed so is No Age and Girl Talk. What's the name of that other band that got confirmed last week? By the Pier or Near the Lake, some shit like that. I'm pretty sure that Drop the Lime and Fake Blood are confirmed, NASA definitely is. Public Enemy, Crystal Castles, and Neil Young are all basically confirmed. Yea, I see what pancakes is saying, the roo lineup is much more mysterious at this point.

For me, other than actually attending, the most exciting part of coachella is line up announcement day and seeing what kind of crazy shit they can pull out. The most exciting part of bonnaroo is schedule announcement day and seeing exatly what crazy ways they are planning to use the plethora of artists on the line up.

faxman75

01-10-2009, 07:01 PM

Faxman........the headliners at Roo aren't that fucking important! They mysteries lie in who will play the late-night sets and what "undercard" bands will be there. The anticipation just does not lie in who will be headlining.

I agree. I rambled too long. The topic was knowing a lineup release day or not knowing it. I like the way Coachella does it better, that is all. I'm not even arguing if those are good headliners or not. They are probably fantastic I was discussing the surprise factor is all.

I even think Paul is likely to be right that the coachella headliners won't be very exciting, but only because I like to keep my expectations very low.

I didn't mean to imply in any way that headliners were the be all end all because it's never been my concern for any festival. On Average I like one headliner a year for these fests so I don't bank on much more than that. :)

Backwater

01-10-2009, 07:19 PM

The main difference is that roo has no curfew. When it gets late at coach, if you don't like the headliner or other smaller acts playing at the same time, you're screwed. Last year on Friday night, since Fatboy sucked, I was completely bored. Since the late night sets always kick so much ass, it's actually a blessing to not like a roo headliner or two. I don't know how many times I can stress this. Ask Sasha and Digweed which festival they prefer.

Metallica was actually a huge surprise to me last year. Then again, I wasn't all up on the insider info last year, so lots of people might have already known. I definitely didn't.

paulb

01-10-2009, 07:24 PM

Backwater

01-10-2009, 07:30 PM

seriously though, NIN would make sense. However, I don't think roo feels that they need to top themselves in the big, heavy band category anyway. I forget exactly what Trent said in Vegas because I was tripping but they won't be playing too many shows this year, right? An instrumental set, with mostly Ghosts type stuff would be ideal for roo.

paulb

01-10-2009, 07:36 PM

any NIN is great for the Roo...but im hoping Bonnaroo keeps the hard rock band each year.... and who could do Bonnaroo....RATM/NIN/Heaven and Hell/Ozzy Osbourne/Megadeth/Black Label Society... maybe Muse?

Backwater

01-10-2009, 08:00 PM

Heaven and Hell?!?! Fuck Ronnie, that would be an insult. Ozzy is WAY too old, and I've seen him tons of times already. Maybe that's just selfish of me, but yea, his time is up. I would be 100% down for Megadeth and Muse. However, I would be VERY surprised if Megadeth ever plays bonnaroo. BLS is garbage and please no more RATM. If they aren't going to play any new material what's the point? So anyway, even though they aren't really heavy, I think Muse would be great for roo 09 and it's very possible, isn't it?

SEPULTURA REUNION IN 2010!!!! With Max and Igor! I know that me, tommy and paul would love this. Any other metalheads in the bonnacrew?

TommyboyUNM

01-10-2009, 08:05 PM

I have a feeling Muse is very possible for Roo this year. And any chance I get to see them play is a treat. They put on one of the best live shows I've ever seen and would be a hit on the farm. And if that happened, that would be 6 times I've seen them in 6 different states. :)

Hopefully Bonnaroo wouldnt stoop so low to get Smashing Pumpkins...despite them being a band that can fill a 3h+ set... SOAD would be too unreal....but Bonnaroo couldnt do it.

I'm going to wholeheartedly disagree with Bonnaroo kicking Coachellas ass because they let people know when the lineup is coming out. I love the fact that Coachella is loaded with surprises. The dates, the date the lineup comes out, the bands. Everything is a secret and it should be. Then one day roughly the same time every year boom, the bomb drops and that's all anyone talks about for the next 3 months while more surprises continue throughout until set times are confirmed. Srsly, when the Roo lineup is released and we see Bruce Springsteen, Phish and The Dead is anyone gonna go nuts? I doubt it, they are expected at this point. You know the date, it's February 3rd, no mystery there. You are anticipating one specific date and you know when it is. With Coachella you know one thing. Late January. Speculation grows and anticipation builds as it's all a huge mystery. The headliners for Coachella at this point. Still a mystery.

I know I'm a little late to chime back in here... (just got back from seeing Gran Torino, do yourself a favor and see that movie)... but I just really really like knowing what date we're going to know the lineup. Other than that, I really do appreciate all of the surprises. I wish I had more self-control, but sometimes I screw with that and go into the rumors threads to find out who's probably playing. As of two weeks ago I realized I just knew way too much and need to hangout till the whole thing comes at once. (And at this point I already know it's impossible for me to be disappointed, so that helps.) So, in other words, it's really looking perfect for the Roo in that respect. The only problem is that Roo is so much more predictable, there's soooo many repeats from two years ago. So there's really going to be less surprises there. But I still think there's going to be some sort of surprise headliner or two (not Phish, Bruce, or The Dead). And it's kind of like Christmas, I know when it's going to happen, where we get that big surprise great lineup, and so I can look forward to it more easily...

Yeah I stopped watching when I was about 14 or 15. I did hang out on YouTube one night recently and watched old videos of the wrestling I remember. I watched The Undertaker vs Yokozuna in a casket match. A few Royal Rumble matches and clips of the ladder match between Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon. I also watched some videos on the Montreal Screwjob involving Bret Hart. Ahhhh the good ol' days.

Actually, It's Lightning Bolt. (No "e".) And I have a feeling you would quite like them. They are a two piece band. Bass and drums. (Yes, that is a bass. Not a guitar.)

They played ATP New York last year. The one with My Bloody Valentine. I don't know exactly how to describe their music, but it is somewhere between noise rock and hardcore punk. They are know for their frantic live shows. I don't see how they would fit in at Bonnaroo, but I would love to see them.

I was kind of surprised that you claimed you didn't know who they were. That makes more sense.

Would anyone else besides me and ragepatton shit themselves if Tom Waits plays? He's seriously one of the best living musicians in the world. The only problem is he hates playing outdoors.

He could play a late night set in the tent. He would have to play against someone HUGE though. Like Phish or MMJ.

Maybe MC5. What if Bonnaroo got My Bloody Valentine?

Both MC5 and My Bloody Valentine would be awesome. I seriously doubt MBV though. (Not to mention a HUGE kick in the balls for Coachella.) Hearing Kick Out The Jams might not be too much of a stretch though.

I could see MMJ a hundred more times and never get bored so that's not it. I guess I never really expressed my appreciation for Tom Waits here. His shows are much more rare too. I guess he doesn't like playing in LA. I was considering driving out to Arizona to see him last year.

two nights of phish and dmb at the roo is like the killers, Neil Young, and Beck headlining coachella...disappointing.

Talking about it ... sure as hell doesn't make it happen. If you really think the Talking Heads will play together again then you're just lying to yourself. It's WAY too soon for an SCI reunion. Honestly, I doubt it will ever happen anyway and IF it does it will be about ten years from now.

Although I actually wouldn't mind it, I highly doubt DMB will play roo next year. Beck can't headline Coachella anymore, yes JJ is more popular these days. Roo will probably get Springsteen.

She brought us back to your pad for some coffee. House was neat, all sorts of cool little artsy stuff all over the place. I specifically remember Alex Grey (Tool) sketches in blue pen posted to your fridge. Next thing yaknow you come rolling up on some sort of scooter/motorcycle.

No. Galactic is just a funky jamband, and a great one at that. They recorded one album with different rappers for each song, as guest vocalists. They don't have a regular singer. But yea, your point remains, hip hop will always be a part of bonnaroo. Nothing new. I actually had a conversation about this in the nati a few weeks ago. This girl was complaining about Kanye being at roo, saying "what the fuck is a rapper doing at bonnaroo? He has no business being there in the first place." I reminded her about J5 playing in 05, because we both went that year and she said, "yea, j5 whatever, but ..... but ..... whatever"

God I've been listening to the Mars Volta a lot lately, and I am sooo not afraid to bring them up here :D I don't care if everyone else hates them, I think if I could have any other band play this year other then fucking Led Zeppelin, it would be them, doing late night just like they did in 2005. I really think that would be a festival performance by them really worth seeing. And everyone on inforoo (unlike this board) loves them, their Mars Volta thread is one of the biggest threads in the Troo Music Lounge.

So if the Roo gets the Volta this year I don't think I'll even care who else plays. Last year was really their year, but it's still not out of the question. It's not like the Bonnaroo crowd doesn't really really want it. I just think that would take the cake for that weekend.

Ignore my rambling right now, I'm just listening to them and thinking out loud... and here I found myself in the Bonnaroo thread.

I've always been a fan of the Allman Bros, a quasi-jam band, and a closet-Dead fan, but the idea of all those indulgent 3 hour jamming sets kind of disgusted me until I experienced it myself.

Love or hate Phish, it just doesn't matter. All of us that have been to Bonnaroo have been trying to stress for months that the headliners just don't matter all that much. Everyone is just conditioned to think that is the most important thing at a festival. It's not. ESPECIALLY at Bonnaroo.

You know, the one real problem with this thread is the incredible redundancy. But I guess that comes with all of the recruiting of new Roo-goers. So for that, I can certainly live with it. But I'm just sayin... we sure say a lot of the same things over and over. Oh well.

So if the line up is "meh" you are gonna wait till the Roo line up comes out, then decide which one to go to?

Well shit, now you have me excited. I'm not exactly into the whole meeting-strangers-off-the-internet thing, but there is no way I am passing this up! I'll be bringing plenty of cooking supplies myself, I'll be camping the whole way in my road trip to-and-from... so I could definitely contribute some delish eggs if anyone wants.
