i remember last year walking by a place around the tent area where you could pay to get a shower ... does anyone know how much those were? and do you think theyll def have it again this year. Just incase i like step in poop.

If I were you, I would buy a big water jug and get a small garden hose. Cut off the end of the garden hose and connect it to the jug. Place the jug on top of your car and open the valve. It works the same way and it's a helluva lot less expensive.
Ya, They were $10. If you ask me that's $10 too much. It was so hot at roo last year that even if you took a nice shower you'd probably be sweaty before you made it back to your tent. I don't know, maybe it's different for the girls, or maybe I'm just a grunt, but it's really not that long without a shower. Last year, after Phil Lesh I wandered over to one of those sink trailers, got completely naked and took a bath that way. I even made some friends in the process. If you ask me it was a lot more fun than paying $10 to take a shower by myself.
I used them in '04. It was kind of funny because there were like 8 stalls all right in a row with a divider halfway through, men on one side, women on the others. Well, the divider stopped at the shower wall so basically I was showering with a semi-see-through glass wall between me and the girl showering next to me! They put up a shower curtain liner on that side later in the weekend : )
I tried to use them in '05 but they had published one price in the 'Roo schedule and were asking five bucks more once you got there. The guy said that it was misprinted. Either way, I had walked a half hour to get there and did not bring any extra money so I was pretty damn annoyed.
Didn't even try last year. Yet again we were way down behind VIP and the nearest showers were way too far away.
I would say that if you were near them, they are definitely worth it. So cool and refreshing. If not, baby wipes will do the job okay.
I don't remember. Probably. I know that I didn't want any, though. It was so refreshing with cold water. If they were open overnight (when it would be most convenient to use them) I would definitely want hot water, though!

If those showers were only open for a few hours in the morning it seems kinda pointless. If you have 2 or more people who each take 3 showers over the weekend at $10 each, it becomes economical to buy a camp shower. We had a camp shower and took our showers right before the headliner each night. Felt great to be clean and refreshed and ready to chill in a chair for the headliners.
