i just remembered this and Jewclaw add to this post your comments as well.
Let me tellyou are Phil Story...It all started with the brownies...they spilled over to mass quantities of fungi...Jewclaw, Amy and I met our new friend Will...Will could have been Chris Farley's Brother and he is a super nice guy...Will had a camping chair that due to either the fact that the chair was old or the fact that Will is not a small man the chair began to break under him...as the legs continued to fold up under him his decided to wrestle with the chair...said chair became a ground chair...as the back of said chair gave way, Will decided it was time for round 2...needless to say the chair lost and was now a pillow. I have never seen anything so funny until the show was over and we were waiting for Mule and Will looks very seriously at Jewclaw and Amy and askes if they will look after his chair while he goes down front...i laughed so hard i think i pee'd on myself alittle bit.
man what a good time... this guy must have been about 350+ and he was the nicest guy. i gave him a cap or 2 and he bought me a beer and after that, he was housed... the best part had to have been when he said "hey, i'm going down to the pit... will you guys stay a little after mule and make sure i make it back to get my chair?" i look at the pile of a destroyed camping chair and look at will, then the chair once more, then will once more and said "sure buddy, no problem..." i left mule after wild horses, so who knows if he ever made it back for his chair.
magic 8 ball says... NOT BLOODY LIKELY.
ps - will asked if we were camping at all good or if we could give him a ride back to morgantown where his hotel was... i wonder if he ever made it back or passed out on the grounds.

Oh and the best surprise show of the weekend had to be The Blue Method. It was on the Ropeadope on Friday afternoon, and Grace Potter was scheduled to show up with them so a few of us who drool over Grace went to show up with the 20 or 30 other people in the crowd. Grace never showed for some reason, but The Blue Method farkin killed it. They covered Have a Cigar, among others.
LRH, did your video of that turn out alright? You should either up it to youtube or post a link, I'd love to see it...
They also covered The Rolling Stones and Van Morrison very well too. They were just up there having a blast and I would say the crowd grew substantially throughout their show from their killer sound.
Man... What a weekend... It literally is impossible to describe AllGood to anybody that wasn't there. I can't really even convince myself some of the things that happened were real ;D
^I just listened to it in camp, it sounded really good though. After all its not like we were more than 150 feet from ropeadope. Then it was the brazillian girls singing about two of y favorite things .

Dudes remember the saxist from The Blue Method? That dude was incredible... He had the whole crowd grooving during a sax solo that seemed to go on forever. Blew me away...
but really it was so nice meeting you all and even corning a bit with each of you... it was too bad that we all didn't get to camp ALL together but it was really nice to kind of have a bit of space between camp inforoo.
who knows what kinds of trouble i would have gotten into if i camped with ya'll! :-)
What are you talking aboot? We were all completely innocent over at Camp Infogood... you wouldn't have gotten into any trouble whatsoever...
lol... whatever you say... ;-) maybe next year we can actually stick together and camp together! :-) Bonnaroo is a little more difficult to swing, but i'd love to do it... :-)
I saw a guy with a kayak, and two or three with poles, I never made it over there though. What I read said a 3/4 mile walk, and climbing down about a 100 foot hill.

Bonnaroo vs. All Good...
Not sure if this is the best place, but didnt want to start my own thread.
I have been to Bonnaroo the last two years and it is really the only real festival I have been to (Not counting Lola and Summerfest which are in a diff category). Just wondering how All Good compares to Bonnaroo as an experience. Music aside, which festival i smore fun? I would like to expand my horizons and try other festivals, but I probably cant do more than one a year. If the lineup doesnt blow me away next year, is it worth missing Roo for All Good? It looks like everyone had an awesome time this year!

There is no comparison. Plain and simple
Basically what I mean is... If you're speaking music-aside, there is absolutely no reason whatsoever that you should even consider going to anywhere other than AllGood ;D
