Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Yeah, but if my Mom can name the Wu (except Cappadonna, she always forgets him), then my girlfriend should be able to.
I wanna party with your mom. In the most polite way possible of course.
My mom has routinely out-partied my friends and when she chaperoned me and four friends to Cancun during spring break my senior year of high school she carried my friend (played DT for a D3 school) half a mile to the hotel. My mom is 5'1" and about 105 pounds.
So don't worry, I don't take offense to people saying they want to party with her, because I do too.

So much to look into on Inforoo today, but so much to be done away frome the computer. I'll have to dig deeper into this schedule in the AM hours. I'm out of her until after Spiritualized.
My dad told me the first NATO protestor was arrested already. The summit doesnt even start till like Sunday. This is going to be a crazy few days here in Chicago.
EDIT: Make that 8 people arrested in a park by Water Tower.
So I hadn't seen my camera since last summer at some point. Today, I finally decide to buy a new one and I paid for overnight delivery so I can have it for Hangout. I just found my camera. WTF.
EDIT: The last pictures taken were at Quack Club!! I don't believe they've ever been looked at before...
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

Expect hundreds more
On my way to work at 6am I passed at least 7 cop cars and I didnt even notice how many foot patrol. Normally, I pass one.
They're shutting down a bunch of the roads, most businesses downtown are closed Friday and Monday, commuter trains are doing searches not allowing food/drink/backpacks/bags, buses are rerouted, people are being encouraged to not wear business clothes to work.
I've heard there was a break in at the Obama campaign headquarters.
If you are leaving, and the other person is staying, you can say: 안녕히 계세요. [an-nyeong-hi gye-se-yo] – This basically means stay well, or stay in peace.
On my way to Atlanta to board a flight direct into Incheon where I'll get on a bus to Seoul and live out the next year. Have fun at Bonnaroo, everyone!

I guess if you live in DC it'd be more familiar.
I've been seeing status updates linking news articles and blogs warning people what to expect this weekend. I wouldn't be surprised if there were riots. Probably Black Bloc vs. Chicago PD. Or Chicago PD undercover with Black Bloc trying to incite mayhem to false flag and start brutality.
And yea, the cops will start riots or just horrible behavior. - In New York, NYPD beats protestors up for the hell of it, then turns around and says OWS started it. NYPD also has raped a few female OWS members once they were arrested. - Secret Service threw a smoke bomb over the White House fence, then blamed Occupy. - Cops unleashed a tank in downtown Oakland. - Boston PD had an undercover encouraging people to push through security lines and take over a bridge. Also tends to arrest medics, reporters, legal observers, and veterans BEFORE the actual protestors. - LAPD escorted a group of reporters around showing civil disobedience in action. A few blocks away more officers were firing tear gas and beating the hell out of anyone they could catch running away.
I know a few people heading to Chicago - either will be leaving soon or are already on the way. Most notably a trio of gals from Occupy Hartford who all expect to be arrested in the madness this weekend.
The Dept of Homeland Security has been working with the White House to try and crack down on all the uprisings - peaceful and otherwise. Clearly they are trying to hide the fact there is so much horrible shit going on in the world, and they are responsible for much of it. Their criminal buddies in foreign governments and multinational corporations have done quite a lot as well. Some people may be charged with felonies after what happens this weekend, in a huge power grab and abuse of the Constitution.
Meanwhile, instead of going to Chicago or Baltimore this weekend - I'm home safe. Doing some overtime at work, couple of small parties. Save up money for Mountain Jam, Roo, and Forecastle.

I was in the car driving home yesterday, and a song came on the satellite radio that I started getting into. About a minute and a half in, I look down to discover that it was Bright Eyes. This made me sad. I blame Troo Music Lounge.

In all fairness, my problems with Bright Eyes/Conner Oberst are personal issues. He has his moments musically.

I just went on an hour bike ride through Detroit. I normally go by freeway to my University, but it was beautiful out today so I decided to take my bike. My route took me through one of the nicest neighborhoods in Detroit (Boston-Edison), followed by one of the worst(Linwood). I went from staring slack-jawed at million dollar homes to cruising down Hamilton Ave, a two mile stretch of half-looted, half-burnt out buildings. I've lived in the Detroit area my entire life, so I'm no stranger to seeing bad neighborhoods, but today the juxtaposition was especially upsetting.
On one hand, I take great pride in living in Detroit and love the neighborhood I live in (Midtown), but on the other, it's incredibly depressing to see the extreme poverty and desolation less than 5 miles away from my house. When I moved down to the city, I felt I was taking part in the city's eventual revival, but today I felt absolutely powerless to stop the decay. Just living in the city isn't enough to make a difference. I need to get more deeply involved to bring about change I guess.
I'm not sure how to go about getting involved, but verbalizing and visualizing my thoughts is a start...

Our car is breaking in every which way so Dave decided to be all Mr. Fix it and has been ordering parts to fix the hood and car door. A smart man, who's kind and loving not to mention a great father, working on a car (rawr). I so WIN!
Abra you are totally WINNING! Today's your day madam.
random: The Einstein brothers bagel thin melt is pretty fantastic. I'd never had it before and put it on an everything bagel thin... I love everything bagels. thing is, they slice that everything bagel in half, so one side of the openfaced sandwich is just turkeylicious. The other side? EVERYTHING BAGEL MAGNIFICENT. I had to make sure to eat that one second.

Spent all day at the office listening to music and sorting through Coca-Cola giveaways for the Coca-Cola 600. Indie Rock and Marketing Swag, is there anything better?
