Hey there ain't even one South. There's the mid south (like around Manchester) there's the Deep South (like AL & MS), there's the hillbilly south (up'n East TN & KY), there's cowboy south (TX), not really the south (FL & Atlantic Coast) Each has it's own custom, speech, food, etc. But basically we're all just "good folk" though.
Lumpin' Southerners together is kind of like saying people from NY, ME, and RI are all the same.
I personally am a hillbilly (I'm poor and I can't play golf so I can't be a redneck. )
Out of curiosity, where does GA fit in? - I myself am a southern belle/GA peach. We don’t sweat, we glisten. Our hands never touch doorknobs, and when we wish to make diner, it’s so good you’ll think you’ve died and went to heaven.
As far as what to tell your lady - I've traveled all over the US and abroad, and one thing I can tell you is that people are just people. If you act friendly and kind people will usually treat you the same. However, if you act rude and belligerent you've got about a 50/50 chance of a poke in the eye.
play her a couple of songs/sets from some of the artists playing, show her some pictures and videos from Roos past... give her the whole multimedia experience... that's how i got my bf revved up and ready to roo!

*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**

just moved from MA to SC and feel right at home already, nobody is asking me to squeal like a pig....asking me to say: car, bar or oyster is another story. Just make sure she has some pizza and maybe a cabinet before she leaves because she sure doesn't want any south of Jersey.
well, i can say the first bonnaroo in 2002 was my first festival experience ever, though I'd been in the south before. I was pretty worried I'd hate it too, since I hadn't even been to many concerts prior to that. but it simply changed my life. i know that sounds absurd, but it's really true. it made me love music more than I ever had and I was a band geek since the age of 10! it's really impossible not to find something you completely love about bonnaroo. you should tell her we all had our "first time" and we all keep coming back for the same reasons--the music is spectacular, the people are marvelous and a better time is not to be had anywhere else on earth! she'll be overwhelmed in a wonderful way and wonder why she ever doubted once she's there. oh, plus, southern folks are reallllly nice for the most part! and the people at roo are from all over the world, not just one part of the states, so it's a great mix of people.
