I've been having a re-occuring dream about Bonnaroo since last year when I started getting excited about it (line-up day...this year it started in august haha). Anyway, it's different every time but the main idea is I'm AT Bonnaroo, like in my campsite, and just can't get to any shows. Stuff keeps happening that distracts me or gets in the way and when I get to the show I wanna see it's already over. In others I'll be looking at my schedule and thinking, holy shit, it's already noon on Sunday and I haven't seen a single show.
Any ideas about what this means? I had at least a dozen, maybe more, of them before Roo last year and I've already had another one about 2010 just a couple of weeks ago. I only noticed this because in one of my psychology classes we had to keep a dream journal..and I had 3 of them in a month.
Feel free to share any 'roo dreams you guys have had too.
My son started his university studies in 2009. Soon after he began, I had a dream the campus was *very much* like Bonnaroo. The dream began in a large tent filled with modern techno clothes and accoutrements for sale. I couldn't find my son's dorm, which wasn't a worry because I was enthralled by all the things around me. Every square inch was filled with stuff in bright, shiny colors and shapes.
I made my way through the "techno" tent out into a crowded open field. Here, people where tossing frisbees and footballs. Music was everywhere. Every face, hundreds and hundreds within my view, had a smile. I didn't want to interfere with the games, so I had to pick a path through the activities.
Making my way to the otherside of the field, I entered a kind of hippie marketplace. Tie-dyed shirts, macrame stuff and long-haired wooksters and artists were everywhere; music, colors and smiles in every direction. I had a very good feeling my son was in a rich, nourishing environment. I wished I could spend more of my own time in this place. An incredibly positive dream....
i've had many a dream about bonnaroo in the weeks prior to the festival. having been there four times i have a pretty literal image in my head of the fest and the grounds. funny thing is whenever i dream about it, its really nothing how it actually is, visually that is. i always dream about a chinese opium den hidden in the campgrounds. i am yet to find it.

Bonnaroo always looks really different from normal in my dreams too. One time there was hardly anyone there, and another time there was a giant coliseum covered in high-tech looking stuff. In my most recent one it looked pretty normal but I missed THE ARCADE FIRE. Talk about a fuckin nightmare...
I had a Bonnaroo dream over the weekend. I have some friends currently living in Thailand, and in my dream, they showed up at my house and told me they were home to go to Bonnaroo this weekend. It was present day, so it was December, and my friends plus my roommate were convincing me we had to leave for Bonnaroo that day despite the freezing temps. I was a bit distressed because I wasn't packed or prepared in any way, so I was rushing around the house trying to get stuff together while they watched TV. I remember folding and packing lots of winter clothes. Our house didn't have doors to the outside so we had to get everything to the car through a window. I woke up before we got to Manchester.
Funny thing, I remember saying in my dream "I know it's not time for Bonnaroo yet because I don't have any information on the Inforoo Brunch yet." We know where my priorities lie
I had one a couple weeks ago - I was on the farm, wandering around the campgrounds, but everything was kind of... different. I can't explain how, exactly, but as is usually the case with dreams, something was off from how things are in reality. It looked less like a festival campground, and more like a refugee camp that had been taken over by hippies. There were very few tents, too - almost everyone was camping just under tarps set up on sticks, or inside those VW vans from the 60's and 70's. Anyway, it was Friday afternoon, and my buddy and I (and a couple other random people I don't know in real life) were wandering down the real Shakedown St, trying to get to Centeroo. We'd just arrived and I was anxious to get to some shows, but although I could hear music faintly in the distance, I couldn't see Centeroo anywhere I looked. Everyone we asked pointed us in a different direction or told us not to worry about it. I then glanced at my watch and realized that a ton of time had passed and the music was almost over for the night (even though it was broad daylight out), so I started to run towards the music in a sort of zig-zag fashion through everyone's campsites. Then, before I knew it, I found myself in an empty field and felt ridiculous when I saw that the music had just been coming from one of those old school boomboxes all along.
There's probably some crazy interpretation of all that symbolism that has nothing to do with Bonnaroo whatsoever, but I'm just going to ignore that and take it at face value.
i had a dream the other night that Black Moth Super Rainbow would be playing on Thursday night this year, but i dont know if they would be considered too big for thursday or not

I had a dream about bonnaroo just the other night where I was just walking around enjoying the festival atmosphere and relaxing with all the other great rooers. The dream got me back here on inforoo
