Pfft.
Stay home.
What is with your negativity? It seems that if anyone wants to do anything you don't approve of/differently than the way you do it, you tell the not to come or ask why go to Bonnaroo... 99% of the people on here are positive good people that are more than willing to offer assistance. What is so wrong with someone wanting to do it differently than you? Live and let live....

Before this blows up...
How much time do you plan on spending inside your tent to require the A/C? It seems to me that you will be spending money on something that won't be very useful for very long...if you plan on seeing many shows, that is.
I can't take the heat, either, but I will be bringing an umbrella to shade myself...a misting fan....wearing white clothes...etc...
I'm sure killer bee wasn't trying to be mean...i hope not.

Well, it will be in the 60's at night and you probably won't need the A/C for that. A tent fan will do wonders for you in the morning when the sun comes up.
As far as the day is concerned, I understand your predicament. Not sure what to tell you though...

Here is what is with my negativity:
"Hi, i want to use up some gas and pump some CFCs into the air so that i can cool a porous fabric tent that I won't even be spending much time in, totally unnecessarily!"
How is this person going to handle the time NOT spent in the air-conditioned tent? It doesn't even get that hot. Everyone else survives without ac.

Air condition a fucking tent? Are you kidding me?
PFFFFFT.
Wow, how very noble of you. You are willing to slam a guy for burning a few gallons of gas to be comfortable. I assume you are hiking straight down the Appalachian Trail as we type to insure that you are a good global citizen. How does the guy that you slammed on the Wi-Fi thread negatively impact the environment? Hopefully you are not really this judgemental of others normally. Let's just chalk it up to you being exhausted from your hike from Boston. Cheer up and don't worry about other peoples Bonnaroo experience, just relax and have fun.

I don't want to be negative, but aren't you the guy who wanted to take a HELICOPTER to Roo???

I do my part.
I don't drive at all when i am at home.
I rented a compact car for the trip, and i won't be running any AC for damn sure.
I do thank you, however, for showing the world that it IS possible to be an asshole for no good reason. At least i was trying to accomplish something.
i, for one, would be pissed if im tryin to chill at my campsite, especially at night, and my neighbor had an Effin genereator, blowing exhaust the whole time. If you bring it, you should ask people around you if they mind. cause seriously . . . . .
To get back on topic, is their anyone willing to share a generatoe with this guy? I don't think we need to argue over who is going to or doing the most damage getting to or at Bonnaroo.........Chill out.
We treat mishaps like sinking ships and I know that I don't want to be out to drift Well I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and They both tell me that we're better than this

Depends on how much voltage the fan is drawing and if the cig adapter is wired directly to the battery. I wouldn't let it go more then an hour without starting your car. A word to the wise: try out your fan before going and make sure it won't short out or blow the fuse for your cig adapter. I learned the hard way with a coffee pot I bought last month.
