Hey everybody. On Friday, I am planning on seeing The Raconteurs, Chris Rock, and Metallica all at the What Stage. My question is, do you have to leave the area after each show, or can you stay and wait for the next act? I was hoping to move closer to the front after each show to be as close as possible for Metallica. Thanks again for all the help.

Just hang out and relax. Thing that sux is the hot sun beating down......but you don't have to leave if you don't want. Inbetween shows I suggest walking to one of the many vendors around the border of the area or even hit up the mist tent to cool off and get out of the sun for a minute
if you plan on hanging in that one spot all day... three VERY important things you need to remember. 1. water (bring a big unopened container) 2. sunscreen 3. hat
also... at walmart, they've got these little spray bottle fan things. it's got a little fan and you fill it with water and it sprays like mist. sounds (and it does look) quite nerdy, but it feels great when it's 100 degrees out.

just got me one of these today, pretty much completed my bonnaroo supply list for this year. *mists self*

of course, it is better to buy one now at some place that isn't walmart. walmart's aren't the best quality. once you're there, though, your choices are pretty much limited to walmart, some gas stations and maybe a cvs or a walgreens or something.

we used these last year and it really made the difference. the walmart ones worked great for us. i think what worked the best was filling it up with a little bit of water and ice, of course it melted fast, but it sure did feel good. ;D

This was the biggest lesson I learned my first year. The sun will completely drain you if you spend all day attending shows at the What and Which stages. The night sets are one of the best things about Bonnaroo, and unless you get out of the sun and off of your feet, you just wont have the energy to make it until 4 AM. Heed the advice above. Also, as an alternative to the mist fan idea, I just fill a bottle at the water station, carry it with me to the stages pour the whole thing on me and sun dry. Keeps you cool for a solid hour.
i saw somewhere once that one of the quicker ways to cool your body through your wrists. simply hold a cold water bottle on the inside or your wrist to cool help cool your blood stream. seemed to help me out last year and it does feel good
