Mostly just a woodstock style thing.

I’ve never seen or heard of a drag show there but the worm has turned on that

And almost no children

When I was a kid you could drink in Louisiana at six

Bourbon had a couple of clubs maybe three that did cross dressing shows

La Cage au Faux

Gunga Din

Guys and Dolls

Sparkly crap sing a song prance around in lingerie

It was a show like the champagne girl etc

Laughed with and laughed at

No indoctrination none of that crap

I remember think it was funny

But I was more interested where the real girls were

All that seems quaint now

I grew up two hours from New Orleans

We went 100s of times family visits and business and food

And a couple of those shows

It was like absurd comedy

I actually know quite a few conservatives who voted for Trump to go to bonaroo hate to break it up y’all

I live here and they paid the big bucks to take the nice RV or prevost

I just don’t like the heat in late June

The law doesn’t prohibit drag shows in private venues. Only in public venues where children may gather such as public libraries.

Diversity and inclusion do not mix and I want neither.

The groomers are really feeling full of themselves these days.

I enjoyed it all but it isn’t a place for children.

I'm of the opinion that rock concerts/festivals don't need to be child-friendly. Really, 13 and up. That was the age I started going to concerts, first with my mom and then with my friends.

Of course, it goes without saying that the transgender lobby is absolutely fighting for access to young children.

Spot on...people visiting the area for the first time have always pegged Johnson City as the most ‘leftist/pro-gay’ of the Tri-Cities.

I did not mean for it to sound like I was scolding and I apologize if it came off that way the funny thing is Bonnaroo is actually rather tame if you want to go to a real rock festival try the Sedalia Mountain music festival 1974

No that was a wild festival

Drugs everywhere open market I have not been there 30 minutes and I saw a couple screwing in the dirt buck naked like animals

I was 16 years old and we drove about five hours I think from Jackson Mississippi

The 70s you had to be there

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozark_Music_Festival

And the music was much better I think Lynyrd Skynyrd and maybe Aerosmith and BTO and many other top tier 1974 groups

It’s maybe the benchmark for a festival gone crazy

Several years ago, the Dallas Police department reiterated that public decency law against nudity during “pride” events would be maintained and violators prosecuted. This enraged homosexual activists who said that that imposed on “who they are.”

Bonaroo ain’t quite the bacchanalia of Burning Man or Key West Fantasy Fest

It’s fairly tame sexual deviancy wise

This is a dynamically changing situation, not static at all.

Tell the pervs what they cannot do, and they will fight tooth and nail to do these things, even if they've never publicly done them before.

If you ain’t got fags in drag, you ain’t inclusive!
