Tipper’s an experience for sure, but it’s going to be exceptionally weird and I doubt I’ll stay for much of it unless I’m tripping, in which case I’ll stay for all of it.
Primus has announced that their summer tour will act as “A Tribute to Kings,” with a full recreation of Rush’s 1977 album A Farewell To Kings at each tour stop.
The Slow Rush is an amazing album Im jealous Tame might play it during his set I'm seriously on the verge of going to roo
It's going to be fucking packed, so unlike the last time I went in '16, which was a dream. I'm picking up my RV Thursday morning but may rethink that and try to arrive Wednesday or very early Thursday instead.
Seems as this will be the first year parking isn't a complete crap shoot in GA. Early bird gets the worm apparently. I don't know if that affects RV any. It may have already been that way.
2016 was so weird with only 46k people, especially with those headliners. LCD blew my mind. First year with the permanent restrooms. I will say I think The Other being all EDM was a great thing for foot traffic. That keeps a portion of the crowd over there.
I wonder how the sound bleed is in the camping area from the other stage. I camped close to RV the first year they had Kaliope and it was loud as shit throughout the early morning. I do like the idea of a dedicated EDM stage to alleviate some foot traffic. The only artist on that stage I would have any interest in seeing all weekend is Tipper and that's unlikely since Friday is so stacked.
Ok news if the lineup stays intact, is not on Labor Day Weekend, and stays separated from CMA Fest. I will be SOL if both Roo and CMA Fest are on Labor Day Weekend.
If the lineup stays relatively the same then I'm pretty happy about this announcement. I've got it on the PTO calendar and contacted my RV rental so should be good to go. It could become open season for a lot of these rescheduled fests and cancelled tours so maybe there could be some nice additions (still holding out for MMJ). This is of course assuming it takes place at all.
Has anyone requested a refund? Leaning towards requesting a refund for my Sat/Sun Nashville shuttle tickets.
Early forecast looks amazing right now. Somebody brought it up to me today, and it has been on my mind heavy. Sigh. Anyways, replay
My Roo crew talked about the weather today :( I’ve had several Roo dreams lately. I swear my inner clock knows it’s almost time to go :(
