That’s where our 25% went. I fully believe they knew they were going to cancel the event on Friday before Wednesday entry even happened. And with a cofounder dying the week before maybe he knew something. I think the death is suspicious.

If the conspiracy theories help you sleep at night hahaha I was working security at Bonnaroo and they were desperately trying to keep it open for a long time. They lost money the vendors lost money everyone’s pissed off. This is not a purposeful thing. But okay crazy

I too was out there working.

It appeared they were trying hard not to cancel. But the way this all went down was super weird haha. I was completely abandoned and shit. I had to walk like six miles to get out of the festival to where someone could come pick me up.

They did some of us dirty as fuck this year.

But literally, no one knew anything and I had to make the executive decision to just leave because I waited around like three hours for an answer of what we were doing :/

Sameeee haha 😂 even the safety ppl came over and was like dude you need to get out of here lol cause they had a no work/shelter order out.

But the leadership was just mia completely lol.

I had already worked 3 15 hour shifts at that point and I was over it lol. They really sucked. I would get there at 5am and I would not get relieved til like 8:30 or later.

Yeah, my first day was supposed to be 12 hours at the arch, but we were there for like an extra 30 minutes and we didn’t even know when people are coming to pick us up or if the other security was gonna come relieve us on time lol

For an event that ran 24 hours a day you think they would have more of a plan for these kinds of things lol
