Fell asleep on a sofa in the cinematech and missed BB King. That's probably my biggest one, cause I doubt he will be around long enough for me to get another chance to see him. I'm also rather disappointed in myself for falling asleep in the grass during Pearl Jam, and sleeping through their entire set.
However, I do not regret sleeping through Kanye West.

Should have bought shade for the RV spot. Should not have waited for Solomon "I May Never Come on Stage" Burke so I could see Derek Trucks, but should have gone to see Allison Krauss and Robert Plant. That's it -- not bad for 4 days of too much fun and music. Thanks to everyone for being the best audience ever!

Having no energy for Robert Randolph on Sunday. Was under the tent for about 5 songs but was falling asleep standing up. Didn't want to take out my neighbors with a fall so I left. I will make it up to you Robert!

Just the mention of grilled cheese right now is making me hungry. I would run to the store and buy some cheese if it was closer. But just to make sure you sure you dont miss it next year. Locate it on the Bonnaroo map. Its on 3rd avenue on the opposite side of the street from the pod 3 balloon. Pretty much on the M in Ferris Bueller. There is always a line, its open all the time. $1 each for 1 grilled cheese. Add a dollar if you order more than 1. Best food at roo. In the morning they have egg and cheese sandwiches for $2.50 Look for this sign.
i dont even like to talk about it because it still makes me upset to this very moment.... my sister and i left our friend about an hour into pj to go and change and get ready for lupe fiasco and then we realized we locked our keys in the car and were wet so decided to lay down in the tent and wait for our friend to come back and we would go do the late night when she returned from pj... she came back thought we had set an alarm and laid down as well.... we woke up at 5 and had missed lupe fiasco and talib kwali who are two of my favourite hipsters.... and to make it worse WAY WORSE... someone stole both mine and my sisters cameras while we were sleeping as they were inside our shade structure and we hadnt anticipated falling asleep.... so we have, gasppppppp no pics.

My biggest regrets which weren't as one would imagine with a 'Roo virgin(thanks inforoo!) were not bringing a digital camera and missing a couple of shows from being lazy. I rly wish I woulda seen M.I.A, Lupe/Talib, Stephen Marley, Chris Rock, Two Gallants, and Against Me!. Also drinking too much beer and having to lose my very good spot at PJ to use the little boys room. Liquor will be a better choice during shows next year me thinks.

Ooooh, yeah. I had to lose my spot toward the end of Sigur Ros because I really had to go to the porta-john, after drinking an entire Camelback full of beer. I had a really good spot, too - about 15 feet from the stage, right in the center of the tent.
Missing Ghostland because I traveled back to camp towards the end of Pearl Jam cuz my girlfriend was tired. We laid down for a quick nap...but there was no waking up.
On saturday night I took half of a piece of paper, and then said oh heck take the other half and I regret that.... I will not be doing any paper for along time again
Man, I had 10 for Sigur Rós and Ghostland. I completely lost my mind but it was amazing.
My regrets would be: -Falling asleep under the trees during Umphrey's -Chasing the dragon for too long and not waking up until halfway through MMJ and then being too tired to deal with the rain -Missing the Disco Biscuits -Choosing Iron & Wine over Ben Folds, bad choice -Missing Rogue Wave, Israel Vibration and Robert Randolph because of saturday night

Unfortunately for this 'roo virgin i had a couple of regrets: leaving Ghostland twice to go check and see if Kanye was on yet, showing up late to Robert Rhandolf, and not staying for PJ's version of All Along the Watchtower (one of my all time favorites).

In this situation, water bottles become very handy! ;D

Roo virgin here-all in all, this was the best weekend of my LIFE. There were some minor things but they really did make the going a lot harder.
1. Didn't bring a back up rechargeable camera battery OR a car converter for the charger, so I spent HOURS sitting in the Fuse Barn waiting on an outlet, then waiting on the charge. I could have gotten SO many more pics had I thought to bring another battery and a converter. (Add to the list for next year) I still got some AMAZING pics tho. 2. Didn't bring enough money. 3. Didn't have half the stuff we needed in camp- a FAN, dry ice, etc. 4. Didn't see enough shows! Sure, I was able to catch every show I wanted to, but I didn't get to see many bands I didn't know. 5. Missed a few late nights because I wanted to "sleep". Bring on the No Doze in '09!
Other than that, everything was great. I am convinced that the farm is the happiest place on earth. Quack Disney World.
