5 hour energy bottles, but never the whole thing at once...just gradually throughout the day/night. I'm not sure if I'll use them, but they're nice to have as an option.

I just bought a case of Cranergy drinks. They're (mostly) natural and aren't loaded with caffeine that will just bring on a crash later. That and I smoke. Nicotine keeps ya awake. ;-)
I have a natural thing with my body that makes me stay awake for 3.5 days without getting tired. It's annoying as hell and thanks to my immunity to some drugs, I can't find anything to help out. It should come in handy for 'Roo though.
I am very sensitive to caffeine. Couple of Red Bulls at noon and I'm wired 'til dawn. My fear is not getting enough sleep. At 39, I don't bounce back from a late night like summa these young'ens.
Energy drinks and caffeine makes me super jittery for an hour or two (almost feels like a heart attack or somehting like that) then I crash hard. I can only have about 1/2 to 1 cup of coffee a day OR a few diet cokes.
I just stick to gatoraid or water and lost of protein like almonds and beef jerky. I usually have no problem energy-wise though. I normally need a lot of sleep but for Roo I am too amped to worry about it. I'll just be naturally energetic.

I haven't really had a problem energy-wise at bonnaroo before -- take it easy during the day on alcohol and other things, make sure to get out of the sun whenever possible, drink plenty of water and eat something, and i have enough energy to stay up late. if it's questionable i can try taking a nap sometime or drink some soda.

5-HTP. look it up. rebuilds seratonin. the thing is, when you wake up from whatever you did the day before...take some and in about an hour you'll start to feel better mentally which therefore will get you moving physically. About 2 hours in, 5-HTP makes you want to eat and helps regulate eating at the proper times. This of course will also lead to energy.

I'm a little older than most here so won't be partying all night. I rarely drink anything with caffeine so I bought some Mountain Dews just in case I need a boost. Plus I try to nap during the day sometime Yep I am old and need my rest.
I don't smoke anymore, but I will during 'Roo just to keep myself awake..... it really does help.
I quit smoking a little over three years ago after 30+ yrs of pk/day and there is no way I'd smoke to stay awake at Roo. I'd buy some nicotene gum maybe, if I was that desperate.

i just make sure to stay hydrated and take it easy during the day, find shade wherever you can get it and chill out. that, plus the excitement of the fest make it pretty easy to stay up
Adrenochrome, but it has to be taken from a living human donor, you can't get it from a corpse.
One of my favorite movies. Wolfman, if I ever meet you, I will be severely disappointed if you don't have the hunter haircut and pointing a massive revolver at me.
