added myself, its a really annoying board to be honest
its extremely user friendly, which im sure they were trying to go for - not that i like it , and it reminds me of a combo of facebook,myspace and livejournal (with the tags)
when i try to go to the .aspx bonnaroo sites, a msg comes up and says 'We're sorry, but something went wrong. We've been notified about this issue and we'll take a look at it shortly.'

I just checked it out and I have to say, I'm worried. Once they get all the bugs worked out that message board will be the place to get info. I love Inforoo and our board has everything you could possibly want to know, but I'm afraid its just a matter of time before they will too. I do think a lot of us will never leave but you have to admit its going to be hard not to check in on the official board a little more often. It would have been really cool for them to link up Inforoo to the main site since we already have everything, but what do I know?

this isn't the first time (or second) that bonnaroo has tried to do a message board.
Look at the format.. its crap, you have to enter a subject for every post even if replying, the coloring is all off for easy reading, and the message board just sticks to the center of your screen, it doesn't get bigger when you max the window..

yeah it is really weird, especially since its supposed to be an 'official msg board' doesnt seem like it will be able to hand much traffic. i wonder if they are watching us, watching them, here.

i don't want to go back and quote it, but the poster above who mentioned competing with coachella...that makes a lot of sense, but i never thought of that.
hopefully we get a partial lineup soon. i'm really excited.
and if their goal is to outdo coachella's initial lineup...this will be nice.
well, you ask me why i'm drunk all the time it levels my head and eases my mind i just walk along and stroll and sing i see better days and i do better things

That's Julie Chen, whose married to the president? I think of CBS.

DNS probably has not yet propogated the internet....some people's www.bonnaroo.com = 128.121.65.46 where others may be pointing to the old site. I get 65.74.171.74 when i ping it.
Just a theory...If it's right, everybody should be seeing the new site within a few days by using www.bonnaroo.com
Hey Cupcake, I can get into the registration page. If you want I can sign up for you as Cupcake, give you the sign-in info, and then you can go in and edit your profile/change your password etc when you're able to get in. That way noone else can take the Cupcake name in vain. I'm on the page now.
They'll probably try to distance themselves from Coachella by two or three days. The idea may be to catch Coachella-goers' attention before they've already decided on going to Coachella. They don't want to do it too soon though because they want their moment in the spotlight alone (don't want to have to share it with Coachella for the next two days or so).
I'm pretty sure that they wait for them to announce so that they can come in and steal their media cycle. Coachella gets an initial announcement buzz and then Bonnaroo comes in and announces theirs and then people stop talking about Coachella. That's my theory, anyways.

If Coachella tix are going on sale this Friday, that doesn't give Bonnaroo much time to take action. Then again, the people who are snatching up Coachella tix the day they come out are probably diehards who'd go even if Sanjaya and William Hung were headlining...
