Name: Mike Age: 21, but 22 by time the Roo rolls around Occupation: I'm in Sales with AT&T Height/Weight: Six feet tall and about 185 If You are a Drinker/Smoker: Smoker and Drinker
This will be my third Bonnaroo and I usually roll with 10 to 15 people each year. Last year I went with 10 people that I hadn't ever met last year and had the time of my life. After seeing only six bands in 2004 I made it a mission to see double that at least in 2007 and ended up seeing close to 30 bands.
I'll share my best/most embarassing story from Bonnaroo now. I was at the autograph tent waiting for my lover Lily Allen. Well, she drank an entire bottle of Jager during her set and I just so happened to have a blinking Jagermeister button on my shirt. Also, she was looking pretty rough at the table, like she was about to pass out. I had one of the wristbands that didn't guarantee me an autograph and I really wanted to talk to Lily so I yell, "Hey Lily! Wait for me!"
She looks up and squints her eyes then finally finds me and responds, "Why the f*** would I do that?"
I said, "Because I have a present!"
Her eyes lit up and she waved me up to the front of the line. I gave her the button and she gave me a hug and then I asked her to sign my shirt, but she told me to get back in line that she would wait for me. So I get back in line stoked as helland wiat another fifteen minutes. I get back up to Lily and she goes, "Hey, it's you again!" and smiles really big and sweet like she does. Then I ask her to sign my shirt but she counters with "Can I sign your penis?" I didn't skip a beat with my reply, but I was also drunk so I said the opposite of what I was trying to say really. I meant to say she could probably sign it twice, but what I ended up saying was "I doubt you could fit it on there"
So yeah, I basically told my dream girl that I have a short one. I've been kicking myself about that since last summer!
