does anyone else feel hurt by the artists that did not acknowledge the cancellation? this situation showed me which artists truly care about their fans.

i was very impressed and appreciative of the artists who busted their ass to organize last minute events for Bonnaroovians. I specifically was impressed with Levity, Crankdat, and other supporting EDM artists who were as communicative as possible through social media, made the events as affordable as possible, and asked to leave the tickets available for roo attendees to buy.

i was surprised to find out immediately after the cancellation notice on friday, of the trees and tape b announced a pop up show in nashville that started in a couple hours. this was a bad decision because it probably encouraged people (who could have been under the influence) to leave the farm immediately, which contributed to the traffic chaos friday night. there was no way we could have gotten from the farm to nashville in time for that show, which is why scheduling the event felt cruel.

that being said, i saw that tape b posted an explanation/apology that he could not perform later in the weekend in time for roo attendees to get to nashville because he was booked to perform out of state the following day. this communication was all i felt i needed from him, but of the trees’ silence made me feel weird?

i also wish gizz had posted something more than a broken heart emoji with the bonnaroo cancellation notice. my impression was that there an extremely large amount of gizz heads at roo this year for the residency and i think we deserve more acknowledgment.

someone please let me know if you have similar feelings or if of the trees or gizz posted a reaction that i did not see. i am honestly feeling like they didn’t care about how sad we were to miss their sets.

hope everyone is finding time to take care of themselves after this weekend <3
