i dont know if its just me but im not really a fan. no disrespect for the particular artist(s) who crafted them, they're cool and i support future artistic explorations at bonnaroo, but they kinda freak me out. they should replaced by giant shade unbrellas. i mean ive tried to sit under the bobble head shade but the sun keeps moving every ten minutes, anoying right? anyway maybe they could stay as long as they were under the umbrellas, but not until then.
I'm not much of a fan but they're kind of signature pieces at this point. I think that they should add a new one each year as a king of Roo Hall of Fame.
Why would you ever want to do that? I agree that more shade tents would be nice, but the bobble heads are an essential part of the experience. I think they should stay.

They are signature Bonnaroo structures. But I kinda think it would be a good idea to make more structures with shade. Maybe the bobble heads can be located throughout Bonnaroo and not just in a row or close at all. Umbrellas would be a cool idea.
tear them down? really? how about just saying they need to add more shade to centeroo? the bobble-heads are a roo staple...if they freak you out don't look at them, but i think it IS a little disrespectful to 'petition' to remove them just cause you don't want them to be there. there are a lotttttt of people who love them being there. a little functionality added, sure. but alot of people would be disappointed if those were taken down. including me, as you can tell. i'll leave like chandler said...
no no no no no. they're not iconic or signature! they're foreign objects that have no place in centeroo. they should have been a one year deal, maybe. now they're just a mistake of history, but its not too late to correct it.
and another thing, the fricken scare me, i admit it, i am scarred of the bobbleheads. i cant sit and enjoy music when these guys keep staring at me!
hey now, i cant be the ONLY one who hates these things. and that other person(s), maybe they're on inforoo and maybe they're not, but im fighting for them too.
"Icon is used, particularly in modern culture, in the general sense of symbol — i.e. a name, face, picture, edifice or even a person readily recognized as having some well-known significance or embodying certain qualities: one thing, an image or depiction, that represents something else of greater significance through literal or figurative meaning, usually associated with religious, cultural, political, or economic standing."
If they are that good put them where the sonic forest used to be. I still want the bobbleheads at roo, its the only way I got home Saturday night this year.
