I'm in a state of panic! I have tons of excitement built up for bonnaroo, but I'm starting to worry! No idea what fuel is going to cost, hope that we don't forget anything, and my job situation is shakey. I have the week off with pay, but as soon as I get back, I'm putting in my 2 week notice cause I just got a better job. I'll make about $4,500 more a year, but I won't get a paycheck for the first month due to the length of time it takes for them to process the paperwork for my state job. My savings isn't that great and if I spend too much I'm in trouble!

as a gal who lost her job this past month and has been having trouble finding one ... i feel you! just crossing my fingers something good will come up afterwards.
I am going to Roo (from Michigan) with NO TICKET. Planning on asking everyone I see at the gate for $5, and hopefully getting enough together for a scalped ticket at the gate.
Just worried ill forget something, but other than that, so far so good.
i will give you the advice a old hippie gave to me outside of walmart roo 2005 "if you dont have what you need now, may as well say quack it!". sounds advice ;D

ya money is a worry ofc. this economy blows and gas prices are the biggest reason i am worried about money. not just for the ride down and back but in my everyday life after that as well.

I have never missed a show that I showed up for. I've scalped. I've sneaked in. I've greased door guys. I even talked Steven Drozd from the Flaming Lips to take me with him into one of their sold out shows. I a very resourceful. I considered going to Roo with no ticket just to see if I could do it. But I decided not to try my first Roo though.

I generally don't panic about this kind of stuff because of my crazy organization (which I started months ago lol) but I have been awfully distracted the past two weeks and I am not on the ball like I normally am... We'll see haha...Good luck to everyone else! and definitely tentseasurfer, just think of how glad you will be to see them when you get home!
LOL, glad to see someone else infected with roo-itis! Monday I completed a huge project. Tuesday I figured out that I had screwed it up. Re-did it and then screwed it up again. I NEVER have this problem. Just three more days to make a complete ass of myself around the office and then I can just make a complete ass of myself in front of you guys.
well i am kinda worried about my cat. he got hurt and i took him to the vet today and the vet gave me medicine for his wound and cleaned it. I am just hoping that its better by next wednesday, cause I know daddy wont give him his medicne or clean it while I am gone.....
Cats heal really fast, you'll be surprised. I'm not sure how bad his injuries are, but usually just three or four days of antibotics will clear up any possible infection and will allow him to clean himself and heal nicely. I hope it all works out - give him a soft hug from me. Or an ear of corn - I hear cats just love corn.
I just need to fill my spare, get an oil change and put in my last bag on everyday use stuff Wednesday morning, and away we go. I want Wednesday morning to be NOW!!!

boo.... my roo panic... the person i am supposed to be going with and i are not getting along... at all!!! ugh hopefully the 10 hour ride to tn will remedy that and not make it worse!
Yea, little worried. I have house payment and utilities to pay prior to going and one paycheck that won't be posted til Friday at roo. But it has been my experience that the Universe always provides...so I'm just gonna sit back and wait.
Little worried that we'll forget something, and my entire party is feeling the money situation this year. Damn you gas prices and a generally slumping economy!
I'm worried I'm going to miss my wife and my 5 month old son the whole time I'm gone.
Other than that I'm ready!!!
When my son was 3 years old I flew to Colorado for four days to visit a buddy. We went to see String Cheese Incident at Red Rocks. This friend of his was asking me about my family and when I started to talk about my son, tears began streaming down my face uncontrollably and my voice cracked. It may have been my "frame of mind" but I really did miss the daylights out of my little guy.
I was OK at Roo last year though. It was awesome talking to him on the cellphone on Father's Day.

I'm practically dysfunctional at work. I can't keep my mind on anything but Bonnaroo.

Seriously?
Trying not to pass judgement here but what makes you think you "deserve" $5 from people? Hey, if some folks want to give you a handout so that you can go to a concert, that's cool, more power to them (and you I guess).
But I find this rather odd. I'm not sure how I would react if someone asked me for money because they didn't have a ticket... ???
The only cost I'm stressing is the cost of gas for me. However, my financial panic was made all the more worse by listening to Modest Mussogursky's "Night On Bald Mountain". Some music, suffice to say, can never cheer anyone up; especially after watching "Fantasia" at an early age and getting the piss scared out of you by bat-creatures.
