This man came up to me just the other day, asked me I'd been born again. I told him, "I didn't think I had." That I had been rejected. But I think, Hell's got all the good bands anyway. And Bonnaroo.
I got sick, too! At first I just passed it off as yet another really nasty sinus infection thanks to all the loverly dust (mind you, not complaining, just pointing out quite an obvious attribute to Roo this year). Day after, though, I found out I was the last person to catch the stomach flu going around my office/hangout. Seems it stuck around a few extra days so I didn't feel like I was missing out. Now I'm just back to a sinus infection, but that seems like a piece of cake.

Sorry to hear that - get well soon!
I still have Roo lag - its like when you are out at the beach for a few hours, and feel super tired the rest of the day, only magnified x 100. Its pretty bad, I was supposed to cut the grass this week, but I don't know if I can without passing out.

GET WELL SOON, HAPPYBUNNY!!!! ANd all the other sick little roosters. Sorry you're feeling like crap. Hope the good times are what you end up remembering the most!
It is unbelievable how many people are sick after Roo... 3/5 people in our group got sick on the way home, myself included. I have had a fever/awfully sore throat/cough/runny nose/headaches since Monday afternoon. Tried to get back to work yesterday and that didn't go too well... gonna try again tonite. Wish me luck.
The Bonnafloo is as much of a tradition as everything else. It happens to a lot of people. This year I avoided it... thank goodness. I feel bad for all of you.
Wife got Bonnaflu also when she got home and it stuck around till Tuesday but I think she's all better now. Hope everyone gets better soon and can get out and play in the summer fun sun.

I havent been on here since before roo and am glad to see that a lot of people are sick and its not just me. I have what feels like the flu/sore throat/fever. It actually started monday when my group went for lunch and I felt as though I was gonna yack my brains up. It proceeded to get worse and now everyone that was in the car with us is starting to feel bad. Hope it goes away soon so my boss doesnt think in just trying to extend my vacation. Hope everyone feels better ASAP.

Man, this is weird. I was feeling really crappy ever since I got home too. Same with my neice, who went too. We all seem to have similar symptoms. Thankfully, I upped my does of Vitamin C, drank lots of water and gargled with warm salt water... so I'm feeling more human today. Hope everyone makes a full recovery!

Wow so many others. I had a fever and sinus/nasal something starting Monday night just hours after I got back, and I am just now starting to turn a corner, the fever's gone, but I still got all of the congestion. All of it worth it, though. Oddly, almost this exact same thing happened to me last year, and it was the last time I was sick until now! Are they sure the TN water authority or whomever checks the water everyday? Oh, I think I smell a rat...
Yeah I'm starting to wonder about that myself, cause I've been sick as hell (pneumonia like symptoms) since the moment i got back too. I'm only just now starting to come around. It's hard to tell really because I've always has issues with allergies but I've never had anything like this. Maybe the water in Manchester is screwy. Who was there and didn't drink the water?
I was there, didn't drink the water and I'm still sick. Don't know if it has anything to do with Roo or not though. Started creeping up on me Tuesday. By Wednesday it was painful body aches and sore throat, today I've got pretty full flu symptoms.

I got it too... really bad on Sunday, broke a nasty fever on Monday, and was coughing up black stuff and stuffy as hell until today. My girl has it super bad, we are going to the hospital if she isn't better on Friday - I'm worried she has pnemonia or bronchitis. I'm thinking that the dust and all the exposure to people (and germs) that your body hasn't developed immunity to are to blame. Next time I will start taking medication from day 1 at Bonnaroo - wear a facemask - and bring my own shower instead of using the water troughs.
