I've had the most amazing week and decided that I need to tell everyone about my Bonnaroo experiences while I was out. Thursday we drove to Nashville to see Bruce Springsteen again and we passed by the farm! I plastered my face to the window and said BonnarOOOOO! as we went by....
Tonight, we went down to Alpharetta to see Stone Temple Pilots and I spotted not one, but FIVE Bonnaroo t's! Of course, I was sporting mine and I gave everyone I saw a big BonnarOOOOO! I was rewarded with only one odd look- everyone else returned it. I was quite pleased with myself.
Bonnaroo- the gift that keeps on giving year round.
I live here and drive by the farm at least one a week on Ragsdale. This year we have more to look at ... the fuse barn, post office and tower, as well as the ever present arch and fountain. awww, already looking forward to your return kids!
Instead of dirt and poison, we have rather chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax; thus furnishing mankind with the two noblest of things, which are sweetness and light.

I still have my Staff Parking Pass on my windshield...the other day we drove up and parked next to a car that had a VIP Parking Pass on it! It was a good moment

I still have that S they put on my windshield. It won't come off and im too lazy to really try to. It reminds me of Roo Went up to Nashville to crash before I went over to Knoxville to see NIN last week and the guy I crashed with went to Roo this year, saw his wrist band. Had a good convo with him about it
As my Inebriated buddy walks out of the Porto, he yells out, "Dude...I love this place...bonnaroo thinks about everything...they even put beer holders next to the toilet!"
Had to break it to him that that was the urnal. Good times good times!

WOW, I was beginning to think that my friend and I were the only ones who still had that on there! I've washed my car several times since the festival but that's still there. What the hell did they use to write it? Just like you, I could take some time to try and get it off (would have to SCRUB) but I kind of like it...reminds me of the roo every time I go somewhere..wonder if it can last until next year? We will see.
I was in Amsterdam last week and I was wearing my bonnaroo Tshirt and I was walking by coffee shop a girl walked by and screamed Bonnarooooo so I started talking to her and she just got there and she is going to Amsterdam university this coming year but lives in Virginia. We were hanging out and this guy walks by and lifts up his wrist and yells bonnarooooo, he had his wristband on still (as do I) but just kept walking by with a big smile on his face. Then not even 5 minutes later a guy from Philly comes by and asks for directions to somewhere and sees my shirt and goes "oh you went to Bonnaroo? I was there too." So we all went into the coffee shop and toasted a nice fatty together and talked.
All the way in Amsterdam Holland and I meet three people in a span of 5 minutes that went to Bonnaroo, it was amazing and was one of the highlights of my trip.

Dont forget that wonderful looming watchtower that we get to look at everyday as well.
Is it a symbol of the impending security state of roo????

Our "S" is still onthe truck as well. My husband said he was going to keep it there til it washed off...but then he decided to wash the truck....it didn't come off. I thik the guy in our line was using a Sharpie or other permanent marker. That's cool with me though, I like the reminder. I'm sure we could scrape it off with a razorblade, but I kind of like seeing it everday.
I was pulling out of the parking deck on campus yesterday when I saw a guy wearing a Roo shirt. All I could think to do was stick my head out of the window and scream "BONNAROOO!" It was made even more special by the fact that I was listening to my Bonnaroo mix CD. Good times.

hopefully that scream echoed through the entire parking deck
It might have. I was in the process of pulling around the corner so it may have been mixed with the sound of screeching tires, which would be the most awesome sound on the planet.
I saw someone with a bonnaroo T at a catch 22 concert, he was actually in one of the openers...awful waffle I think. He gave me such a strange look when I said hi I was soooo disappointed. I did however see two girls that went to Rothbury at a 311/snoop when I was doing security this summer they were very nice girls...rothbury wristband was similar to bonnaroo's.

Last night we were walking into Walmart here in Dalton, and there was a girl standing at a register wearing a roo shirt. So I yelled. She just turned around and looked at me like I was an idiot...it shamed me that she would even wear the shirt...
I saw a lady a few years older than myself at work a week or so back with an '05 'Roo shirt and I complimented her on it. She asked if I'd ever been to which I replied, "Oh yes. It's the most magical place ever!" Then she gave me a bit of an odd look and my spirit was confused by her reaction. Maybe some people just go and don't get it? But how is that possible?

I ran into 2 guys with Roo shirts on at the MSTRKRFT show last night...gave them a big BONNAROO and got smiles in return. I got to chat with one guy, he told me about how he's been every year...pretty cool!
i was at a bass pro shop here in town, just looking for quality tents for next years roo, and the gentleman helping me out actually went to the first roo...he was a little bit older, but still a cool dude, and we started talking about shows and his experiences with phish and grateful dead...i was actually pleased, because i never find anyone here in san antonio that has at least heard of bonnaroo
the boy that sits behind me in my hospitality management class still has his wristband on (as do i!) and he noticed that i had mine on so we started talking and then out of nowhere this other girl comes up and told us she went too! small world?

maybe the shirt was a gift from a friend that went. i had a similar experience in chicago during lollapalooza.

Hey Karley!! Always nice to see another NC native! Are you in school in Raleigh?
Anyway, long story short, I almost got arrested in downtown Charlotte Saturday night/Sunday morning (along with several other people) while enjoying a post-wedding celebration. BUT I had my Bonnaroo shirt on, and the officer had apparently been two years ago and LOVED it. He made me stand still while he read the line-up and we started chatting about last year and what I thought of it etc. etc. Then he just tells us all to chuck our beers/drinks, get a cab and go home. It was great!!

The main post-roo run in's i've had were a Cashier at Kroger with his bracelet still on (which made me happy because i worked the exact same place the first year i went) and a guy at a gas station in cartersville that asked me about my shirt.
