i had a blast!! we meet a lot of cool people and saw a lot of amazing music and art!! The weather was perfect but it was a little crowded this year, but it was great!!! i can't wait for next year!
Got home at 8:45 PM last night. Had an amazing time! A bit groggy, but the rain messed with my allergies and I had to take some Benadryl on the drive back. Blech.

I got back not long ago. It was nice to have friends on the inside... I got to hang out in their campsite behind the Sonic Stage and watch main stage shows from scaffolding set up on the wall just above the lower connector to the main stage. Great sound even just sitting in their shade tent. I also got a couple free showers out of it (coldest water I've ever showered with, but totally worth it. It also didn't hurt to not have to spend 6 bucks every time I wanted a beer.
Musical highlights: Phish... safe setlist, but the playing is getting better every show. Laying on my back in the shade of a tree during Andrew Bird, staring at the clouds relaxing.
Best musical act seen at Bonnaroo (all 6 of the ones I've been to): Katzenjammer. These girls were so tight and massively talented, that their energy and harmonies brought tears to my eyes. It was early Friday and I'm still floored by the experience. I was so transfixed by the harmonies and the switching of instruments (they all played everything), that I almost didn't notice the part of the show where the drummer was playing trumpet and drums at the same time. These girls need to be huge. Don't miss them if they come within a couple hours of you.

I realized that I came by Camp Inforoo on Thursday and introduced myself but didn't know who I met! So if you saw me come by Camp Inforoo let me know so I can put names to faces

just made it home a little bit ago. didn't leave the farm til about 3:30 today. i did not have the best bonnaroo experience this year (not bonnaroo's fault). i was sick with a cold the whole time. on the way to the brunch friday morning i tripped over a guyline which gave me a nasty cut on my right foot and bruised my left calf and left hand. the combo of those two things kept me from seeing a lot of music. also someone stole my camp chairs and cooler this morning and my phone is broken. i couldn't catch a break!
but i have to say i met some of the coolest people ever this year. made LOTS of new BFFs (bonna-friends-forever). and all the shows i saw were amazing.
Awesome weekend. Was able to get a good amount of sleep everyday cause of the weather and as a result I was energetic all weekend and had a much better time this year than last year.
