Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Since we're getting close, I thought it would be a neat thing to see what we're all happiest to let go of for the weekend and what we're all looking forward to embracing once we get there... I'll go the obvious route:
let go: work, work, work!!! embrace: a loving musical atmosphere
ps - if a mod would like to move this to a more appropriate spot, feel free... I was torn as to where exactly to post this.

I cant wait for Sunday......I wanna announce the winner of this VW Vanagon. That will be the thing I look the most forward to.......
the other thing is that I get a good spot on Shakedown to do this. if I don't, I might not be able to do this raffel at all. If I get stuck in an obscure corner of Bonnaroo, that would most suck! But I'm believing and preparing for the best outcome.
I've seen most all the bands already, so this raffel will be my peak time at the Roo. It will be fun meeting all the good folks thru this as well. ANd maybe, my A/C cooled tent can give some relief to some folks who may be scortching in the heat.

Let go: Work and the responsibility part of being a parent (our son will be with grandma)
Embrace: A variety of music only complimented by the variety of people all sharing in it together. And time with my wife and our freinds where we can be as irresponsible as we like.

Awwww, well aren't you sweet? Karma to you - wish I could give it to everyone, but we only get one per hour and my attention span is only so long...
Haven't I seen your roo pics on flickr, or do you just resemble someone?
I've been reading these boards for the past few weeks, but this thread is making me post.
I'm going to 'roo with my two best friends. The three of us are currently going through what can only be termed Major Bad S**t, so I'm looking forward to
letting go: all the pain, confusion, and cares of life, embracing: friendship, community, and awesome music. (And camping.)

That's what it's all about, hon. Obviously, I'm a karma giving fool (especially on a thread that I start), so karma to you! I think everyone has had a run of bad luck at one time or another, and I hope you can find all that you desire at roo. It's my annual get-away-from-the-world/come-back-to-what-matters retreat. And what can be better than (as you said) friendship, community, and music? I think that's the common theme in this thread - we all want to get away and get with nice people where we can be ourselves and shed our skins. God, I can't wait!

let go: being around shallow people that i must hold my tongue around and have no opinion about anything unless it's along the lines of "yes, your highlights are awesome" and "um, sure, i guess that picture makes her look fat, if you say so" and god forbid i bring up a legitimate social issue or try to play/talk about any music other than "glamorous" or "party like a rockstar"
embrace: freedom. ......to do, think, drink, take, say, swallow, dress, not dress, listen, talk, sing, scream, befriend, give, share, smile genuine smiles...... .....Being around people, however different from me, that i somehow feel i have a lot in common with.
whew. i feel better now. i think everyone's anticipation & stress is showing in a lot of posts lately.....so, thanks, mariposa, for a "happy" thread!!!!

LET IT GO: work stress, not doing enough, working 12 hour days and spending over 18 hours on a computer.
Blessing & Karmic waves for you: a kiss in the rain, dancing in the mud, being able to see the band you love even if there are conflicts, the warm sun on your skin, good beer, tons of hugs from beautiful strangers, a beautiful manchester starry night, tears of happiness, the galant beauty of running nekkid, a plush pillow, a dry bed, and the life changing experience of a life time.
this is my first time. i'm totally stoked. everyone that i've talked to personally and online that's gone - their life has changed for the positive.
i hope to meet all of you and know that for the 9 days until then i'm sending you warm and awesome waves and shivers of good vibes.
