Just got back, I had such a good time! This year definitely tops last year by a mile for me, there were so many great concerts. Almost everyone that I saw put on an amazing show and I only had a few disappointments. Its gonna be hard for Roo to top itself next year after that.
Well we're back.. not sure if I am happy about it yet! Already miss the Farm and my new friends! This being our 4th Roo I have to say it was the best yet! Great shows, great weather (yes, even thursday... our tent and camp stayed dry!) ... enjoyed Camp Pussy Galore...Cant wait till the next Roo.... This year was the BEST!

SIIIIIIICK!!!
Phish killed it! moe. 5 hour set! Awesome weather! Saw more shows than I expected to! (Heavy Pets & Vieux Farka Touré Rock) World's most AWESOME Roo neighbors! Held Trombone shortly aloft as he crowd surfed at Galactic. Gabriela!!
I'm not technically "back," just waiting for my turn to shower in a Memphis hotel... I return home tomorrow night.
I had such a blast, the harsh reality of losing my phone @ moe. still has yet to set in.
My neighbors had their backpack stolen at a show.Dude set it down for a minute to dance, took his eye off it and it was gone. It had their cellphones, personal items (sentimental value) and a buttload of party favors in it.
They didn't let it ruin their good time at Roo and I wish for them that they find the strength to not let it ruin their good time now.
6.7: roooo 6:19: roger waters playing the wall 6:22: dave matthews band 6.27: trampled by turtles 6:28-29: phish 7:14: forecastle festival & mmj on the belle of louisville
We got home about an hour ago - my best 'roo EVER! Had sooo much fun and Paul Oakenfold did not disappointment in the least - playing until 6:45 a.ma.!
We rolled in a couple hours ago and are thrilled to be home, but already missing the incredible music. This was our 2nd 'Roo and 8th music festival and we just felt we finally hit our stride and had a great weekend -- the music was fantastic, the campsite was chill, and we didn't feel like we were on the brink of death at the end of Sunday!
The Public Enemy set was INCREDIBLE!!! AMAZING! I was so pumped to see them and they did not disappoint at all! An historic show and one I feel blessed to have seen. It was inspirational and they just knocked it out of the park. I am at a loss for words to describe how good they were and their message was so positive. Ranks up there among top festival sets I have ever seen.
The closing Phish show with the visit from Bruce was also a highlight. Great stuff. It's been nearly 15 years since I saw Phish in my college gym and to see how much better they have gotten is awesome. They were always good but I don't think ever that good. They absolutely killed.
This was an amazingly awesome trip, even with a campsite break-in, running out of propane early, and a camp shower malfunction (repaired with fishing line, strips of plastic cut from a garbage bag, and black duct tape, earning me the title The Reverend Doctor MacGyver Papacat of the Nine Fingers).
But I've heard voices not in the head Out in the air they called ahead Through ripped out speakers Through thick and thin They found a shelter Under my skin -Evgeny Aleksandrovitch Nikolaev
back and so happy. my first bonnaroo was a great experience and i can't wait for next year. now it's time to get my pictures and my thoughts organized.
oh, and that first shower/bathroom experience at home was... magical.
I got back late last night after a delayed flight to find my apartment had been burglarized while I was gone. I got to sit up and wait for the police. It was pretty awesome. Had a great tiime at Bonnaroo, but that was one hell of a way to get back to reality.
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
I met you Took a picture of you and your fella' too! ;D

For those who saw Phish at Bonnaroo:
FREE Assembly of Dust / Phish Download!
Hey everyone, I'm a first and foremost a fan of Phish but I am admittedly also a member of Assembly of Dust's street team. Forgive the intrusion. If you don't already know AOD they are giving away the track ³Arc of the Sun² featuring Mike Gordon (of Phish) on their site www.aodust.com Its worth giving a listen to! AOD is giving away a new track every Tuesday until July 14th featuring artists like Jerry Douglas, John Scofield, Richie Havens, Al Schnier and more! Again sorry if this feels spammy but I was eager to share the news! -Lynn

the only way i could describe the past week is "time of my life" anything less would be a horrible understatement. ive never felt so incredible as i have the last week.

Amazing time!! Didn't think it could top last year but it did. Just got home and ready to turn around and do it all again. The drive sucked and the 6-hour wait to get in was not too much fun but everything else just kicked ass. Started to get worried about the weather when that helluva storm rolled in about 10 pm on Thursday, but the rest of the weekend was just perfect. To our neighbors Skee, #1, #2, Rachael, Jamie, and the rest of the Pittsburgh Penguins (City of Champions!) fans around us: hope to see you again sometime, you all were so smurfing cool. Damn, do we really have to wait a whole year to do this again?

I got back around 11:30 last night, the best I can remember. It took around 11 hrs. to cover the ~375 miles home with several stops along the way. I'm tired and my feet hurt. Gotta bring better and spare shoes next year. My feet got soaked on the way to my 12 hr. volunteer shift Wednesday. Great shows, great Tuesday night Mal-Wart pking lot party, great Volunteer Camp-mates and Wed. nite Busaroo Party, great Brunch, made lotsa new friends. Best Roo Ever. Can't wait to go back for Roo #5 pre-fest vol. next yr. so I can go in Sunday this time.
