Has anyone considered walking to 'roo? a few friends and I were considering walking in 2008, leaving early May from Philadelphia I think it'd be an extremely enlightening/life changing experience.

I ran into some people a while before Roo last year in Roanoke who were hiking the Appalachian Trail and were about to head over to the farm. They seemed to be loving it
I think any walk across any part of the US would be a very enlightening experience but I definitely wouldnt enjoy that right before Roo. I do plan on doing some sort of hitchhiking thing across the states or part of em when I get out of college, my inspiration being On the Road by Kerouac. Ever since I finished that book I have fantasized about such a trip.
My best friends dad done a coast to coast trip by train, hobo style when he was young. Im not sure how safe that'd be these days but listening to him tell stories makes me wanna do it

I've always wanted to do something like that, but I don't think I'd do it before Bonnaroo because Bonnaroo alone is enough to wear me down after 4 days. And then recently I saw the movie Into the Wild, and that pretty much ruled out the idea of it all together. I don't think I'd survive very long.

my friend brett is currently doing a coast to coast trip around the u.s. [mostly] by train. he is making a very small living of it, but it sounds absolutely amazing. he made a list before he left home, and is now going across the country crossing each of his 50 things off the list. i am so jealous of him. if anyone wants to check it out, he puts out podcasts and such at www.amtrekker.com
oh, and if you do go to the site, let him know if you can help him with any of the things on his list. he really needs help finding a race car to drive!
I remember last year some people were talking about hitchhiking to Roo on here. They said everything was cool until they got to Tennessee, and the Highway Patrol started giving them a hard time...
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**
We figured that it would cost about the same to fly as it did to drive. Especially with gas prices these days. I can't wait to hit the farm. I'm def gonna catch up with more Inforoo heads this time! (Even if it's late night after all our "business" for the day is taken care of!)
In '04 I met a young couple that had hitchhiked from Idaho. They were in M'boro the night before looking for a place to camp. I brought them home and gave them a place to sleep, breakfast and a ride the next AM. Dropped them off at the gate to scalp tix. They said they had a blast but it took a while (I think they said about a week but don't really remember.) Ran into them all weekend and shared party favors.

wow i walk a lot daily but i agree with some of the others, walking to the roo would probably drain ALL of my energy and i definitely need energy at the roo! sounds like a very interesting thing to do, though...i'm sure you'd end up with some amazing stories.
I ran into this guy at Echo, trying to Sell me a Mickey Hart Poster for 12 bucks. He was real sketchy and I thought I'd give him a plug! Hilarious at 5 a.m. Sunday night. Echo ruled!

The closeset airport I beleive is BNA/Nashville International which is an hour and change away from Nashville. There is a shuttle bus that runs back and forth to the airport. Greyhound would be your backup plan, but they are few and inbetween.
Your welcome!
