Spread The Word

Wow. Bonnaroo never fails to please, and Saturday is the best example thus far. Bussers split their time between Regina Spektor, Ziggy Marley, Franz Ferdinand, Spoon, Ben Harper, and Keller Williams in the afternoon, re-convening at the bus for a delicious dinner. Joined by a few friends from Dartmouth, the crew talked energy, sustainability, and renewable fuels all day with the green-conscious population of Bonnaroo, meeting members of similar projects, prospective car-converters, and hippies of varying levels of clothing. Chance and Roxy talked to us about starting a similar bus project at the University of Louisiana and were excited to meet member of “the actual” Big Green Bus!

In the evening, a great show by The Police (with Bussers in the front row!) leads into a fantastically sweaty GirlTalk dance party (with Bussers in the front row!), and the night is capped off by a solid set from the Flaming Lips on Which Stage. Another good day of spreading the Big Green Gospel!

Colleen and Chris dish out Green Info in PlanetRoo!









Fact-o-the-day:
Bonnaroo’s PlanetRoo features the Solar Stage, an entertainment stage entirely powered by solar energy. The stage hosts musicians, environmental panelists, dancers, and variety acts well into the night using only the power of the Sun!
