I really do cite the ravers from keeping me from enjoying it entirely. Last year, I was able to get enough rest and wake up when I wanted to stay up late.

In case you haven't noticed, I've had an opinion on this board for a long time. Funny as well that Julian was the 1st to try to rile things up with this to get past his faux paux earlier this week. Y'all crack me up.

Wasn't implying or trying to instigate anything; was just trying to make conversation. No hostility meant here. I just remember you posting a lot about it in the past and thought you may have mentioned going. The only people on this board who posted anything about it in the last few months were you, myself, snailhook and NKOTB; not exactly a plethora of people to keep track of.

I do have several friends going from WFWM so I should get to score some good interviews and live sets from it.

Yeah plenty of live sets should be available to me too. I know of at least one taper who will probably get everything.
Originally posted by sweetcell:As much as a lame rip-off artist Kanye West is, he really got the shaft from Bonnaroo and I wouldnt hesitate to think this could hurt some of their professional relationships to book certain big name acts in the future.
who'd a-guessed it:
"This Bonnaroo thing is the worst insult I've ever had in my life," West wrote. "This is the most offended I've ever been ... this is the maddest I ever will be."
It also shows what a bunch of losers go to Bonnaroo. Pearl Jam went on for an extra hour, so wouldnt it be natural to think West would be AT LEAST an hour late? but no, these fucks were throwing shit 30 minutes after West was supposed to hit the stage.
I can understand if not all the crowd had known that PJ had gone on late but no announcement was made either.
West isnt the only asshole here, the organizers of this festival are as well.

i think it's almost become a new sport in the music industry: piss off kanye, since he's so piss-offable, and watching him complain.
Originally posted by Erinaceous Sonickus:huh? until very recently, taking shots at PJ as un-hip boring has-beens was quite common here!

But Kanye is such a complete pile of horse-douche that he will take the blame for it, and I've got no problem with that.
First of all, he's the one who initially moved his set to after PJ's headliner spot. He says its because he wanted his ravey glowsticks to light up, but you know he loved the fact that it meant he was closing the festival.
And, from what I've read, he and his crew didn't exactly hustle to get his spaceship set up, and when he finally did come on, he didn't acknowledge how late he was.
But again, I think the primary reason Kanye will get the blame for this is because he has so quickly built a history of being a jackoff. And if this is the worst insult he's ever gotten, then motherscratcher has had it pretty damn easy.

you cant blame Pearl Jam. They were supposed to play that stage at the alloted time. Kanye had them switch his slot AND stage around last minute. He had from 1:15 to 2:45 to set up. That is plenty of time. But it took him over three hours to set up? So why did it take them so long? And it didnt even seem like anything was happening on stage the while everyone waited. And that is an hour and a half late, not an hour, which means, if it was PJ's fault, it was still Kanyes for being even extra later.
West's set was originally scheduled for 8:15 p.m. the night of June 14, but the rapper requested it be moved later in the evening so it was sufficiently dark for his "glow-in-the-dark" performance. But because of the late start, midway through his performance the morning light began to show â?? revealing a substantially thinned-out audience.And he shouldnt have been there anyway. How many people came there for Kanye? Probably none. And are they going to give him 3 + hours to set up at V Fest?
Originally posted by killsaly:At least you acknowledged the real reason he's being shit on for this. If this had been the other way around, do you think Kanye would be getting railed for going an hour over?

I have no doubt that Kanye is a whiny dick and is partly to blame. I wouldn't let PJ off the hook completely though (assuming the article is correct about them playing too long).
