3.0 out of 5 stars Not really the best of the Roo '03, October 8, 2003

By

This review is from: Live From Bonnaroo 2003 (Audio CD)

On one hand, this double-disc perfectly captures some of the spirit of the 2003 Bonnaroo festival. Key songs and performances from the Dead, the Flaming Lips, Galactic, Polyphonic Spree, Warren Haynes, MMW, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, and others, highlight this selection. However, many of the songs chosen leave you scratching your head. Why "the Seed" from the Roots, when many of the other songs were more well-performed? Why is there no STS9, Moe., funky Meters, etc? These were bands that drove the festival, and should have been included. It almost seems like those in charge of the compilation were more interested in showing off the diversity of the lineup (the Dead, sonic youth, James Brown, etc) than actually keying on the best performed songs.

Oh, and I have no idea what that reviewer below is talking about. I have both the special edition ordered from Bonnaroo.com, and the regular one from Amazon, and neither has RAQ or Neil Young, although both did play the festival.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Bonus Features on the Bonnaroo 2003 DVD, October 29, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Live From Bonnaroo 2003 (Audio CD)

The Bonus Features are worth the price of the double DVD. In fact, there are 45 minutes of awesome interviews on the second disk! Some of the reviewers point out that some bands (like moe and Particle) did not make the feature. But they do appear in the bonus features. The bonus features include rare interviews with The Dead, Wayne Coyne, Particle, Al Schnier, Warren Haynes, Stanton Moore, Michael Franti, Jack Johnson, G Love, Ben Harper, James Brown, Wide Spread Panic and others. The best part of the DVD, in my opinion, are the bonus features.

For those interested, I know that the bands choose which songs were used, not the film producers. Some bands did not participate in the DVD project.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD from a Great Festival, December 1, 2004

By 

Tim Fuller (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Live From Bonnaroo 2003 (Audio CD)

The coolest thing about Bonnaroo is the amazingly diverse and eclectic music lineup they offer each year. With 2003 being the 2nd Bonnaroo I have been too, I was quite impressed with the lineup and I was even more impressed with the awesome sets of music I was lucky enough to catch. As with any festival, you have to pick and choose which sets of music you can see (because acts are scheduled at the same time), but with this CD, everyone has a chance to see highlights from the festival. It's a 2 CD set, so both cds are packed with music that showcase the talent and intensity of the performances at Bonnaroo. You got Widespread Panic, Allman Brothers Band, Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, My Morning Jacket, Galactic, Flaming Lips, Warren Haynes, Ben Kweller, just to name a few. I bought this cd for friends of mine who couldnt go to the festival cuz of work, and they loved it. I went to the damn festival and I adore it. Defintily a great purchase. Highly recommended
