When a friend of ours heard we were going, he said that he had gone to the 2002 festival and gave us the DVD to view. It is one thing to read all these threads and see the pictures...but to see it on the DVD...mind blowing. It was awesome to see all those people having such a great time. But as someone who is nervous in large crowds, yes I know...my fear of large crowds and Bonnaroo do not mix, it was a little overwhelming. I made my hubby promise not to lose me in the crowds.

Worst case scenario: You get lost and one or more of the thousands of friendly people wil help you. Roo isn't like other places, anyone will gladly help you out.
One time I saw this chick, she was walking along yelling "I NEEEEEEED Suuuunglaaaaasses..." I saw her not 10 minutes later and damn if she didn't have sunglasses.
At Bonnaroo you can truly rely on the kindness of strangers
I know the feeling miles. Last year was our first year and after we decided to go someone got out the 02 DVD. I think it was right after the intro and seeing Les's song that had me hooked right then and there. You will have a blast and everyone really is nice enough to help you with anything.

Ben Harper's performance of Burn One Down is pretty sweet too. That guy playing the djembe is good. Did you guys notice all the smoke wafting up from the crowd?? That was awesome!

Just watched the 02 for the 1st time a few weeks ago. I was there in 02, and seeing the orange stonehenge in Centeroo brought back so many memories of that mind-blowing experience. I almost sh!t when I saw that guy in the Metallica shirt talking smack about hippies. I've accually hung out with that guy. He's drummer and singer for a band called Sound of Urchin (They're actually really good), and he drummed for the Moistboyz (Ween side project) on their last tour.
The really weird thing is the last time I partied with the guy was the night before we flew out to Bonnaroo last year. I talked with him about the fest and he mentioned he was there in 02 (they didn't play, but were touring with Ween and tagged along on the guest list), and that he hated jambands and Bonnaroo. I told him Radiohead was headlining that year, and he was genuinely shocked.
John: We don't even understand our own music Spider: It doesn't, does it matter whether we understand it? At least it'll give us . . . strength John: I know but maybe we could get into it more if we understood it
