I love this message board and I love the people on it. You guys and gals make me LMAO every time I visit this board. You all understand how special Roo is to me like nobody else. I consider you all my friends and would have loved to have met you all face to face.
I know this sounds like a sh!tty excuse but I didn't have time. Those four days felt like 45 minutes. I had kids camped next to me that didn't have money or food whom I took care of. I went to shows with my neighbors on either side of me and I spent a lot of time sleeping during the overcast to have the endurance to shake my @ss at every show I saw. All tolled I saw 17 complete sets including moes. @ss kicking 5 hour set.
I also missed out on the Inforoo experience. I was going to go to the brunch but ended up cooking the only breakfast we managed to make at Roo and going to the car for more crap.
I am soo sorry we missed the brunch as well, we were all gun ho about it, but drank way too much the night before and slept right through it. Then we went back to try to go by and visit, but could not find the way in, we saw the flag, but it was surrounded by a ton of peeps
As my Inebriated buddy walks out of the Porto, he yells out, "Dude...I love this place...bonnaroo thinks about everything...they even put beer holders next to the toilet!"
Had to break it to him that that was the urnal. Good times good times!
the boy and i missed out too. we didn't really spend that much time in the campgrounds, and i think we were both a little anxious and shy about the whole thing. but, as we kept saying all weekend long, there's always next year.
I missed it too, but I actually tried to make it. I could find the flag in the tent only camping. So if you saw a two guys walking around with a plastic bag Lemonaid in it that was my brother and me. We walked around for awhile then headed back to camp and gave out the sweet tea vodka, lemonaid, and key lime cheese ball I made to the people camping by use.
I went looking for you guys but only found the flag once, like 3AM Thursday night. I wandered around tent only two or three times after that and couldn't find you guys!

Apologies and regrets for not visiting the camp as well. This was our first (and DEFINITELY NOT LAST) Roo. We couldn't even find the flag and were so overwhelmed. That's one of only a few regrets I have from the weekend. Next time, it'll be first on the list of to-do missions!
I didn't attempt brunch just cause I was sooo tired and did not feel like treking through the mud from Pod 1. But other days I was looking and I just could not find the flag!!!

Everytime I passed tent only on my way to and from shows I would look for the flag but I couldn't see it. If I saw it I may have been involuntarily drawn toward you awesome peeps.

Kinda sorta a little glad to hear this as we got to the brunch late and didn't stay long, so I thought I'd missed you. I was walking around mumbling "Sheakerrrrrrrrrrrrr" under my breath in the hopes I hadn't missed you. LOL.

I camped in Tent Only and for the life of me could not find camp inforoo. I guess there is always next year. I did meet a guy that camped next to us that is on here some. But of course now I don't remember his name.
i'm sorry too friends.. i fully intended on visiting the brunch but was persuaded into a press conference backstage instead.. i'm sure ya'll understand ;D

Aw, I feel so bad about all the people who tried to come and couldn't find it! It doesn't do much good now, but if the same thing happens to anybody next year, please send me a direct message on Twitter if you use it (assuming I'm at 'roo next year). It'll get texted to my phone...I'll happily go stand in the road and do a little dance or something until you find me and then I'll lead you back to the brunch!
Add me in on the list. I had full intentions to be there. Being the last camp spot in the far right corner of BFE and it being fairly cool in the morning. I slept like a baby and cooked a big breakfast.
Add me to the list of people who are sorry they didn't visit Camp Inforoo. I had every intention of going to the brunch on Friday morning, but I was so beat after my 6pm-6am shift on Thursday night / Friday morning, that the brunch was the last thing on my mind. I even had a large bag of french onion Sun Chips I was planning to contribute. Oh well.
Plus I was also more preoccupied with exchanging my paper wristband for an actual one, so I could finally explore Centeroo. I know, excuses, excuses... assuming I go to Roo next year, I will definitely not miss out on the 2010 brunch.
i'm sorry too friends.. i fully intended on visiting the brunch but was persuaded into a press conference backstage instead.. i'm sure ya'll understand ;D
i love yous guys though!
I was like...."Where's Higgi? Anyone seen Higgi? Hello?! Higgi?!? Higgi are you there? I got somethin' for ya and it's not a knuckle sandwich!"
Thank god someone was there to enjoy an afternoon....cigarette with us.
And what's up with me bringing a watermelon and pineapple with no knife? I'm slow sometimes. BTW, that was the most packed I've ever seen a campsite at Roo.
We were reconfiguring camp because the tarps and tent poles didn't all hold up during the storm....it's our fault TugBoatCharlie was late...Sorry!!! We definitely plan on going back to Roo though, so maybe next year (and I think we'll shell out the dough for VIP--I think my bf would've had more fun that way)
So many people I had hoped to meet up with were at the brunch I didn't go to
Yeah! What was up with that?! I was looking for you so I could steal your ticket stub! I'm glad we got to meet at Bammaroo though Oh & I just remembered....seeing you on the side of the road was insane!!! I was trying to act so nonchalant.
As for all of you who didn't make it, more food and room for us LOL, just kidding, I was looking forward to meeting all of you!
Yeah, I'm sorry I didn't come too. I was going to bring my friend CarlWinslow because I'm sure everyone who remembers him on this board would love to meet him for one reason or another.
You saw 17 complete sets? Damn! I only saw about 15 bands including partial and full sets...
The recount(once I had time to slow down and actually think) was 16. I'm not counting "pieces"of sets, I saw some of those too) I feel like moe.'s set should count as two or three. I only counted them as one.
And I danced my @ss off at every one. So when I wasn't at a show I was in a prone position at my campsite.
Not bad for a 39 year "old" guy. I was dancing around 20-somethings who were sitting on the ground. No offense kids.
Next year for sure. Phone tree?
;D
