To make up for the fact that I won't be with my daughters and many of you won't be with your fathers on Father's Day, I will allow you to buy me beer. Problem solved.
One of my best "overheard at" memories was Bonnaroo '03 when some guy was on his cell phone at his campsite going "Happy Father's Day Dad, I just took ac*d!"
It was like that part in Field of Dreams where Costner plays catch with ghost dad. Makes me weepy every time.

Boo. That makes Roo the weekend before Glasto trip for me... Odds are this will be the first Roo I miss since '07. Decisions will be made at lineup time I suppose.
Same boat.
Same here. Well really, for me, I don't think there will be a decision; there's no way I can swing both when it comes to money or PTO.
I plan on hiding in my basement during Roo 2013 to avoid reading about it and thinking about it. Druid, mayo, you are welcome to join me.

Not too happy about this. Its going to be so effing hot.
But may not conflict with EDC.
Between EDC and CMA Fan Fest it does open some interesting artist possibilities. We had been talking about an RV as a possibility, I think the later week may have just made our decision.
I am so happy right now. I watched the announcement video with my sister and literally started thrashing around on the couch in excitement when I saw those dates. Last November my friends announced their wedding date to me: June 8th 2013. I immediately thought of Bonnaroo and began thinking of how I could slink out of the wedding. But I'm expected to be in it and I've known the groom my entire life. Now I don't have to worry about that anymore. These dates pretty much made my year. I'll see y'all out there in 2013 for my fourth Roo!
I hear that!!! On July 7th (a 4th of July party), I was drinking with my family in NY. My mom calls over to me, "Hey Bonz! Make sure that you have June 8th available!" I just laughed at her and said that's Bonnaroo. No way. Turns out a family wedding is on the 8th. So I spend the afternoon freaking out that I might miss Roo and then train it into the city to see GL, ODB and Bandeto. GL SAVES MY LIFE, by telling me that Bonnaroo will be the weekend after this year because of an agreement with the CMAs. I was about to kiss his feet. THANK YOU GL FOR NOT MAKING ME FREAK OUT FOR MONTHS!
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.
Hopefully they pushed it back a week to accommodate a major act like the stones our macca.
You're better than this.
I was half joking, but hope is like dessert, there is always room. It's like being a Cubs fan. You pretty much know they are never going to deliver, but every year, you still have that hope.
The complaints about the dates & it being hot on THOSE dates (as opposed to the week before) are a joke, right?
No.
Those of us who live in middle Tennessee are well aware that the beginning of June is when the weather literally flips a switch and goes from comfortable spring to humid nasty summer heat.
For example, the temperatures from this year at Bonnaroo and the next following weeks were 20 degrees in some instances different.

So instead of "ball-melting" hot, it's going to be "brain-melting" hot. Wah wah wah.
It's June in Tennessee, I hear it's warm there that time of year.

Not trying to be a jerk, but I just went and did an almanac search of 2008-2011 (didn't include the freak mild weather of this year), and the temps for the week of 'roo and the week after were a negligible difference.
More than likely, the heat is going to be roughly equally as crappy as it always is. This is coming from a New Englander, if anyone should be biznatching about how hot 'roo is, it's me.

I'm there regardless, the line up would have to be absolutely shiz awful, like I've heard of every single band and hate them all, and the only comedian will be Carlos Mencia.
I'll be excited to see you folks in TO! It's gonna be a long 9 months...damn.
