More like a PEEon.
So I emailed Roo liked MANY people did, I know, and also I knew there wasn't some cool cat on the other end reading it being like 'hmm, you know I feel compelled about this writer's influence' I know that, but I LOVE the generic response I got back in less then a couple of hours.

After the shock has worn off you know here's the facts.
- Those really idiotic Metallica fans that I at first was dreading the idea of sharing the farm with, are NOT going to shell out $200+ for a ticket where they are stuck with all of 'us' and all this music (minus pearl jam) that they don't appreciate. (I mean would you?)
- A lot of the hardcore Bonnaroonian's are going to be there...that's what make them hardcore Bonnaroonian's.
- Kanye's stage will have a good deal of stupid white kids (not anything to worry about) but I'm thinking he will take the 'Ziggy and Elvis' stage time, and I don't know about you guys...but all I've ever done was just walked past the main stage at that time because that shit is too hot to hang out there.
- And you know what? If you really are kind of feeling a little hate towards a couple idiots you've seen along the dusty path...do hit up Janean and Zach at the comedy tent...because Janean will agree with you and Zach will make you forget about it.
