I'm a little late for this years bonnaroo (2010), but want to get a jump start on bonnaroo 2011. When is the best time to start looking to buy tickets?

Wow. Super early huh?
I think pre-sale tickets go on sale in November.
And it's not too late to jump on board the Roo train this year. I've got a couple of friends that just recently decided to go. One bought his ticket last week and the other two are getting theirs sometime within the next couple of weeks. Only thing I guess would be getting the time off work. (If you work) Neither of my buddies work, so this wasn't a problem for them.

What she said. IDK if work or life is getting in your way of going this year. I was able to score tickets for friends last well below face value after the tickets shipped.
But yeah, November is presale, and we'll start talking about 'Roo '11 as soon as this one is over.
Damn and I thought I planned ahead. We always look at the calendar for the following year REALLY early because of the way my husband needs to request vacation leave. Looks like 'Roo will be June 9th to 12th in 2011.
But it's never too late to decide to come this year. You can make the rookie mistakes we all do/did and be seriously ready for 2011.

I'm just sort of chiming in with what everyone else said, but...is there a specific reason you can't go this year, or are you just thinking it's too last-minutey? Because it isn't at all, so if you want to go, go!
I still haven't made any plans for this year. As soon as I figure out if I can get time off I'll be able to, but I don't have a ticket yet, don't know for sure who I'm going with, etc. And I'll be flying somewhere so I need to book a flight too. I know it's a little different when it's your first Roo and you might feel like you have more preparation to do than someone who's done it before, but honestly you have PLENTY of time. I think for my first Roo we didn't think of it at all until May...I know it was like the middle of May when we decided we were going and it wasn't until May 25th or so that I had bought my ticket and knew absolutely for sure I was going. And last year I'm pretty sure I decided to go a week in advance!

I haven't bought my ticket for this year either because of some money issues. It's not too late to go this year if everything can work out with money/work/etc.
Sorry to hijack the thread, but Pondo, why can't I give u 'awesome' points??!
U never know what happens until 2011, just be there next month!
You can turn off the points system in your profile settings. Pondo has done this. I turned mine off at one point because it bothered me too much when people gave me negative points. Then, for some reason, I stopped caring. hah
Try and have a garage sale. Maybe you can make a ticket from your junk. Roll up your change save your cans, and shop around for tickets, last year I found some cheap ones on ebay right before the festie!
I can't remember who it was last year but they sold some old CD's, DVD's and was selling plasma. That's a level of dedication that can't be matched, imho but those are some ideas.
That makes no sense! U're AWESOME! +1 to offset the losers who lenoed u b4. Pondo, hypothetical +1 to u good sir.
Garage sale is a great idea.. dude quack money, this is worth it.. its costing me way over 3grand that i cant afford but its a good time to be stupid and what's that saying? "Let the devil eat my ball$?" No that can't be right.
If u do make it, u got a fat corn-roll (???) and a spicy pie on me (I'm such a loser, I can't stop thinking bout the damn spicy pizzas everyone's ravin about).

You think it's bad now, wait until you have had and see how much you have to have more. I have been reading lots of threads with your comments and I have to say that I hope I have the pleasure meeting you in June. I'll bring the beer, You bring the Spicy Pie!
It's never too early to begin saving for next year... stash $10 - $20 a month or more if it's in your budget; give it a name ie. 'Dreaming of Bonnaroo 2011' and don't touch it until you're ready to pull the trigger on that ticket.
