I've never personally experienced mud at bonnaroo, and although the hedonistic mud-dancing I'm picturing upon first thought is appealing...I feel like it would really blow in the long run. So I picked dust, the lesser of two evils.
Rain. Definitely rain. I stay so much more active and alert and it really adds an element of "we're all in this together" to the whole experience. (But, if I get my say, no rain on the Wednesday before or the Monday after Roo!)
For people that have allergies or asthma the dust is a REAL inhibitor. At The White Stripes last year, I was having a hard time enjoying them as much as I could, cause I couldn't breathe. It was a really clostrophobic feeling, and that was with a wet bandana over my face. The mud is just an inconvenience if you're prepared for it.
be prepared for the dust and you'll have a much better time.
I don't want to hike and stand, and dance on soft, wet, wrinkled feet. Trench Foot doesn't put me in a good mood when i'm spun. I'd rather it be sunny and dry. Dust can be a result, but i'd rather have a wet bandanna than a wet supply of socks for 4 days; that gets old fast.

I'll take mud over dust any day. The dust didn't bother me too much at the time but at least with mud you're not coughing up black crap for 2 weeks ( or six months if you're a poor bunny).
Now you just told me that friendship is all I'm forced to repair the breech in my wall Illusions and dreams, as usual, it seems Sabra girl, they've been my downfall
This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**
I haven't experienced that mud, but I would most certainly rather take the dust. How would I be able to nap under the trees if the ground was covered in mud, or feel so refreshed after I step out of the fountain if it was already raining? I know the dust and the heat may suck, but I've been camping in the rain before and it was not all that great. But, a nice little shower mid-weekend would be pretty nice.
Dust - I don't wanna be camping in the wet all weekend - that would be a total downer for me - plus - if it's raining everyone would be trying to get all crowed under the tents to stay dry and there would be no room to dance and - it's kinda hard to nap anywhere you want to if it is raining

Mud. The dust in 02 and 07 pretty much ruined the 2 weeks after roo. The campgrounds don't get very muddy and you can always take your wellies off. It's a moot point though. Unless we have a drought that starts right now, we'll have mud.

The dust last year was annoying but there was no problems getting around, I slept dry and getting out was easy. The rain and mud in 04 just kinda sucked. Getting anywhere was a chore, the pump trucks couldn't get to the portapots in Centeroo, lots of people had to pay to get their cars towed out of the camp sites...
I 'm calling for: warm in the mid to upper 80's. Partly cloudy with brief early morning showers...

I have really bad allergies, mild asthma and was wearing contacts and I really didn't have any issues last year...... I didn't realize how bad it was until I looked at some of my pictures afterwards

mud was a ton of fun till people started flinging it. If you were caught off guard, mud to the face and eyes really hurts. I guess it would be an outside factor on this for me.
As my Inebriated buddy walks out of the Porto, he yells out, "Dude...I love this place...bonnaroo thinks about everything...they even put beer holders next to the toilet!"
Had to break it to him that that was the urnal. Good times good times!
Damn,I like the title of this thread, Karma. I am "Pro Mud" myself, I am ready for the storm this year. Bring good waterproof boots, that is the trick to beat the Mud.My feet stayed dry and comforatable the whole time in 2004. Sandals will kill your feet in the Mud.
