One gal talking to her friend as they walked down Bushy Branch one afternoon.. one of them was topless: "I mean, I'm ready to fart, but he says our relationship can't handle it yet"
Sunday afternoon I decide to go into the Current_tv tent for some A/C and a power nap. I walk in and plop down in a chair, and I fall asleep. Then about 10-15 minutes later I wake up to some guy yelling in the tent:
"Clap your hands everybody, if you love Heroin!" "Yeah, man!"
Nobody joined in and it didn't even faze him, kept on dancing where he was, but he stopped chanting.

so, we were at the Police and I said to my new Roo buddy Scott, "do you think the explosion at the end of the Tool show was the PA blowing up because the Police are sounding kinda weak?" To which Scott replied, "dude, this isn't Tool".

Lol - they must have been wooks... the only thing smoking mushrooms will do for you is a good lung infection.

Some dude staggering down 7th street with a handfull of balloons:
"DUDE! This is just like at the DENTIST!!!"
We were talking about the tool video for sober which features claymation. Some random frattie stumbles up and says "Are ya'll talkin about claymation?? I'm the FOREFATHER of claymation!!"
i'm pretty bad at remembering specific lines but there's one that jumps out at me (mostly because i said it) that my friends thought was pretty funny.
we're all sitting at the nightwatchman's set and tom's already played like maybe 4-6 songs so its a good ways into the set and we've all realized by now that he's into talking between songs. so anyway, we're a little out of our minds as usual and tom starts going on a political rant and does the typical 'fuck george bush' bit and says some other things that i don't remember. we're all sitting there still listening through this serious monologue he's doing and he goes onto say something like (paraphrasing):
'i hope that the positive forces that exist at bonnaroo carry over to the outside world. i know that we're each capable of making this change really happen and that when we leave this place, we're all going to be driving the engine of change that this country needs'
to which i remarked, 'but i'm too fucked up to drive!'
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!
Towards the end of Sasha my hubby and friends were sitting towards the back regrouping after Mule. A couple sat down kinda close to them in lawn chairs. The woman says, "Ew, someone is smoking!". So they pack up their chairs and start to leave. As they are walking away the guy says, "Smoking causes cancer." My husband, being the smartass he is, responds with, "Self-righteousness causes constipation!"... heehee
After Tool my group was standing around contemplating lasers. It came up that lasers are kinda scary. Afterall, lasers kill ewoks. Later, after discussing it we decided that lasers aren't so bad because lasers don't kill ewoks, clones do... damn, we're dorks ;D
The woman says, "Ew, someone is smoking!". So they pack up their chairs and start to leave. As they are walking away the guy says, "Smoking causes cancer." My husband, being the smartass he is, responds with, "Self-righteousness causes constipation!"... heehee
I hope your husband doesn't mind, but I'm stealing that. ;D

Go right ahead, his smart-assery is his gift to the world ;D
If I recall correctly, I read on RollingStone.com that she had taken xanax and chugged jagermeister before performing...so yeah, I'm sure she was...
I wonder what Regina Spektor was on. She was really having problems remembering the lyrics to her songs and had to hum along to try and figure them out.
Funny Lily Allen quotes: "Are you drunk yet? I hope you're as drunk as I am!" OR "Can I take a picture of all of you? I'm going to put this on my Myspace." She also had some commentary before one of her songs on an ex of hers that was rather small...in a size matters kind of way
I was pretty close for Regina and didn't get the impression she was on anything, though I could be wrong. To me it seemed more like she was just really nervous and couldn't believe she had so many fans willing to watch her in that kind of heat.
While on the funny musician quotes, how about: Colin Meloy (lead singer for The Decemberists) "I am president and CEO of M.A.C.O.F.B./'macofbuh'...Musicians Against the Calling Out of 'Freebird'."
Also from Colin "I promise to keep all beach balls tossed on stage safe from harm at the hands of the security men and their 'bulging biceps.'"
Craig Finn (lead singer The Hold Steady) commenting on how happy he is about the number of people he sees fist-pumping in the audience "Fist pumping is always cooler than that dance the hippies do."
I was walking back to camp after the White Stripes set, tired after a long, awesome weekend. I hear someone walking behind me. "Fuck," he says -- sounds like he was pissed about something. "FUCK!" he said, this time with much more agression. Getting a little uneasy. "FUCK!" He continued. "FUCK! FUCK! FUCK, BONNAROO IS AWESOME!"
My wife changes from my right to my left during the Police and says she can't take the chattering fools behind us anymore. Why must people run a commentary during shows? Esp. if they say dumbass things like: "Sting and Steward Copeland are brothers" "Andy Summers found Sting in a jazz club and told him 'You're better than this" During "So Lonely" the guy announces "This song was the birth of punk rock."
"Never smoke Shite-ee weed... only $5... this shirt will get you high" -- Old head vending by Shakedown, while I was lost at 4am, on Bushy Branch.
I was also yelling "Has anyone seen the ferris wheel?!", dosed out on Thursday evening.
Also, was doing "Uranium for sale.... Plutonium... who needs their plutonium?" One guy came up to me and said that he was interested and was puzzled when I said again that I had uranium for sale, then busted out laughing and walked off. That was about 2am by the Ballin sign on Saturday.
Were you on shakedown? I was headed down towards centeroo and a guy said "Uranium, Plutonium...Enriched. Weapons Grade" had me laughin my ass off.
At Camp Inforoo on Sunday... 2 things were going to the left, and one was going to the right... All 3 happened to arrive at my buddy John at the same time...
"Uh oh... It looks like we've reached the Consumption Junction"
My friend on morning: "Give me back my seratonin Bonnaroo!!!!."
Guy putting up tent: "Damnit you just put that through my foot!." Guy selling goods immediately screams: "Farmies!!!! Painkillers!!!"
Guy standing at Porta-Potties: "Jenny!!! Jenny!!! Jeeennnyyyy!!!! Jenny!!! Jenny what's taking you so long!!! Jenny!!! Are you making a poopy Jenny??!!!! Are you dropping a deuce???!!!! Are pushing out a turd????!!!! Jenny!!!!???? Girl standing next to him says something to him then.... Guy standing at Porta-Potties: "Oh... it's Tara? Tarrraaa!!!! Tarrraaaa!!!! Tarraaa!!!!
Best thing ever. My girlfriend and I were just being stoned and goofy as all hell and we were sitting there by ourselves and started having a play conversation of words that don't exist. So after like 15 minutes of us going "Baah bahh baaa bah maaa ba?" "maaaaah bah." The guy in tent right next to our shade tent yells out "OMG where's my pipe!!!!"
"Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is man's original virtue. It is through disobedience and rebellion that progress has been made." Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900), The Soul of Man Under Socialism
"You're either on the bus or off the bus." Ken Kesey
"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro." Hunter S. Thompson
Ok so I have two 1. My friend:"I hit hit a girl by accident during the flips last night" Guy wearing a skirt: "Oh thats nothing I stepped on a girls face last night and she didn't even wake ok so I just kept running." 2. Guy who looked a lot like trey: "Free high fives, I'm out of my fucking mind mind right now"

We were camped next to a group of 3 young sorority girl types. While everybody was setting up, these girls started arguing with each other because no one could figure out how to set up their tent. After awhile it became clear that one of the girls was more helpless than the rest, and she proceeded to piss the rest of their group off by being absolutly worthless. Best line: Girl 1 (to helpless girl while wrestling with their tent) "Just get me a cold drink and I'll be happy" Helpless girl stares at their car for a second and asks "Where's the cooler?" Girl 1 "Jesus Christ you're worthless!"
I could not stop laughing at this point. It was just too perfect, like "The Simple Life" had moved in next door. I doubt these girls were still friends by the end of the weekend.
John: We don't even understand our own music Spider: It doesn't, does it matter whether we understand it? At least it'll give us . . . strength John: I know but maybe we could get into it more if we understood it
