Marshmallows?

[Hooch]

I'll agree that aggressively throwing marshmallows at the band is bad juju and distracting for them, but in general I bet they appreciate the gesture.  Even the sound booth guys were getting into it while I was watching the set.  It's an excessively benign form of celebration (and yes I took a marshmallow strike full in the face but laughed it off).  The few that really get annoyed at this (I saw some lady collecting marshmallows in a plastic bag so they could not be re-thrown) probably have no business being at festival in the first place.  Or maybe you should switch over and complain about tarp line some more.

Thank you, King, for reminding us of this.

Guess I'll be in a condo next year at Bonnaroo.

There's an idea! If TBF is getting too rowdy for you, got to Bonnaroo!

Great.  Save me a spot.  Camping for festival is gross.  And dammit I hate marshmallows.

I agree, ban the marshmallows.  And bring back Jeff Austin.

[sdmjake]

Nothing should be thrown at the band (.)



{If Yonder wants people to throw stuff at them at least throw Bacon. I'd eat the groundscore bacon.....}

whoa now, let's not get crazy

Actually Yonder got a tremendous upgrade in the Mandolin Department, and vocals for that matter. No way Jeff can hold a candle to Ronnie.

Marshmellow collection was the guy next to me and I did collect to throw away.
 Why feed the monster?  I have respect for the Fest clean up crew. And who if not me and when if not now.
I love Fest and can  drink just about anybody under the table if I choose to do so, lets get crazy, so rowdy is a lose term..
 So party on brother any way you think best but for this LADY with a passion for party and fun,I am gonna keep on keeping' it clean

[dnewgent]

I have seen the marshmallows for years and I have never had much of an opinion, but someday we will learn a hard lesson and PB may be forced to step in. I hope it doesn't come to that!
Party On!

Another Bueno Festival!

It's an upgrade in the sense of technical skill on mandolin.  But it's a huge void not having Jeff's stage presence and body of work.  It would be like Leftover Salmon without Vince.  Or Phish without Trey.  It's just not the same, and actually not really even close.  It's a bummer.

I got hit by a flying graham cracker and a chocolate square.

Landshark...were you part of the Yellow Zone contingent? The ones with 2 foot feathers on their heads near the front that blocked everyone's view for 4 days? They were aggressively Harshing the Mellow of those Marshmellows. At first I was annoyed they were confiscating puffed corn syrup. But, after the sun came out and started melting the little boogers...I understood that sticky goo was not a good thing for tarpiness.
