I dont remember if we've down this before, but i think it'd be cool to see the ages of all us inforoosters. You dont have to post your age in the thread, just the post is definatly fine. The age of some people will suprise you when you find out. I'm only 17, any other young bucks out there? I know isaac said he was. If this has already been done, feel free to close it, and sorry for the clutter.
It's inspirational to me to see people 20+ years older than me at Bonnaroo having a great time. Every year on Sunday I think to myself "am I going to be able to keep this up many more years", because besides being the best weekend of the year, Bonnaroo is one of the more strenuous. After 2 nights of all night music, not to mention inability to sleep past 8 am for 3 days due to the sun, plus the 90+ degree heat, I always think to myself "I don't know if I can keep this up." But then I see people many years older than myself and I think "I will come here forever."

Man you hit the nail on the head - every year on MONDAY I say to myself THAT was brutal and how the hell am I going to keep this up. I think the only concession I make is the KOA - although I have lived the dream in the public camping area !
Every year I bounce back - I think its fear - fear of missing something spectacular - Particle Starting at 4 AM; Robert Randolph playig to the choir TIL 4l how bout the Flaming Lilps OR the monstrous downpour before The Dead; Running between Umphreys/Disco and MMJ and Freakin super jam last year; big upsets with Amadue and Mirum; Seau George; or heck a few years back MMJ - every minute of every day there is something I can't miss.....
I admit I am recked when I get home but to paraphrase Tom Petty - I aint backin down

Hehe yeah we may still be doing at our age, but that doesn't mean it's easy I came home from my first Roo with badly swollen ankles and feet and had to keep them up for 3 days before the swelling went down (thanks to the brutal walk from our tent at the very edge of the campgrounds). I guess I may have to trade in my trusty Birks for something a little more road worthy this year........ I keep forgetting I'm not 20something anymore
