i think its weird how there are no pics anywhere to be found yet! you'd think that SOMEBODY would post some up SOMEWHERE. i was thinking.... what if they say that photos arent allowed in the behind the scenes areas?
I was lying in a burned out basement With the full moon in my eyes. I was hoping for replacement When the sun burst thru the sky. There was a band playing in my head And I felt like getting high.

From a guy who grew up in Temple City, and hung out at all of the local haunts of Pasadena, CONGTATULATIONS!! I often wish I was back on the left coast! Have a blast my friend!
temple city!! spreading some 626 love your way! (or mayybe it was still 818 when u lived here). I grew up in San Gabriel, right next door!
...small world.
I was there from 77-2005, and Rosemead b4 that, so I saw 213, 818 and 626! Much Love Brother! Enjoy your rock star status!
Those pics piss me off so much that I quit looking. They obviously are casual music fans who could not fully appreciate the access they were given. It was just a "we're better than you trip" nothing more. I'm glad some inforoo people won this privilege. I expect they'll respect and appreciate the access they are given and all the awesome people they will encounter on their back stage adventures!
We met a guy at the airport last year who was staying in total access and he couldn't even talk about any of the musicians. His biggest complaint was that they had increased the number of people who could use TA and it cut down on the exclusivity. I have to be careful now because since then I just call it Total Asses and I know that can't be true for everyone.

wait what do you mean couldnt talk about any of the musicians? like weren't allowed to speak to anyone about what went on behind the gates? and how exclusive does that guy want it? let's say there's 20 busses, thats 160 people. out of 80,000? sry to hear he had a bad experience, but i think im gonna make it the time of my life...
consider my rsvp yes! thank you every single one of you that has posted on this thread and congratulated me and such. it's really been helping with all the anxiety surrounded by all this, im driving myself crazy to the point where i cant sleep at all! im so glad im plugged in this community (even such a small lurker role) it's given me nothing but support and niceness, and its great to goto a place where everyone speaks the same language.
I <3 you, inforoo. i wouldnt miss the brunch for the world.
Oh I'm glad you're coming to brunch! Can't wait to hear about it. I hope you take some better pics than that link above. I felt like I couldn't *see* anything in their pics, if that makes sense.

Yes you could... you could see THEM, which is exactly what they wanted
if you have a little extra cash i would suggest getting a Flip HD camera or something similar and take videos of tons of stuff. something you could share with everyone and have awesome video memories for life!!!

You'll have a blast but this guy didn't know who was playing! And yes I think last year there were supposed to be 20 busses and they added some and you'd have thought someone peed in his cheerios. I'm thrilled to see that someone who was planning and wanting to go won instead of this guy who didn't seem to care where he was as long as he and his friends could hang out somewhere exclusive.

Congrats on the win! =)
Gotta say I'm slightly jealous, but I'm glad that someone that sounds deserving got it.
I was looking through the flickr photos from the people that had total access and UGH! Those people really got under my skin with not knowing what artist they were standing right next to. So offensive! Also, the comment about "Gen Pop"...really? They really feel that much better than everyone else?

I'm not sure about the different passes and such but those people had WHY passes. I dont know what that gets you into but I dont think its the same as TA. And if they were so close why didnt they take pics of someone good? I dont plan on bringing any booze let alone 5 cases of beer. It's all supplied with TA. So I dont think they had quite the access you might think. Why were they stalking J.Johnson he sucks. I would have at least hit on one of the Olson twins. and I woulda pissed on Kanye's bus.

i bought an HD flip for video and i have my iphone for stills. Im planning on blogging/journaling there about what i see so my reactions and emotions are in the moment... then ill add the pictures and create a blog when I get home for everyone.
i can give you my person 100% guaranteee that I am not going to waste this opportunity. "lose yourself" has a whole new meaning to me now. this is going to be about music, about people, and most of all, about bonnaroo!
what im looking forward to most is, for NOFX and gogol bordello and others, that all access pass is going to be irrelevant because i am going to be in the pit getting crazzzzyyyyyyy. i already know that backstage is NOT the place to watch music the sound quality is so bad! and the bass is all distorted! but we get rail spots at the what stage and sound booth access on the which.
