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!!
Those of you discovering others in your general area you may find this "startegy" worthy of considering...
In the North East which is ripe with smaller festivals we combat the obvious dangers of making the pilgrimage to our love the festival world.
There is no doubt that there are many "Dangers" that pose a threat to the festival world. i.e. cops given the fest a bad name for busting the peeps on the way in or out. But that happens because the "Unity" premise takes place inside the festival gates hence johnny law pounces to beable to say "see we got crime on the streets give us a raise"
The "Unity" like here on Inforoo should begin before the pilgrimage "home"(to the Fest). Here is how:
Even if groups are leaving at diffrent times 1 hr or two hrs apart exchange phone numbers and become each others RADAR NETWORK with updates and such of the on goings and sitings on the high way.
If a large group is caravaning together stager the departure time(s) by a half an hour. When the first group stops off for rest area needs, gas, munchies et. wait until the next group shows catches up then everyone chat about the ride thus far and stagger the departure again this time change up the groups (cars).
If organized well enough people leavin NY can get word from people from philly that left ahaed of time of what they are running into etc. I think you get the point-just think truckers and CB's.
When Leaving a festival NEVER leave on your own with- out of state tags. Your just a sitting duck if you do.
If you are leaving by yourself (with out a group) adopt one find people with plates from similiar geographic regions i.e north east south west etc. and tag along at the same time!
oh yeah and NEVER leave a festival DRESSED like you just came from a festival. You could have been camping anywheres but looking like a festie is a sure give away!
Oh yeah one more thing we are expanding this with new technology as internet ready phones allow internet access and creating our very own little info on the coppers network.
Pull up the site and there is a post about where and when a cop was sited.
unfortunately not all areas on highways have cell access but its improving tremendously to be an advantage.

My two cents, and change Trip
Trip, this is an excellent post. I hope folks read and heed. I am a former and I repeat former Sheriff's Deputy. Out of state tags and the "festie" look say's one thing, "Pull me over for the least possible reason and search me". There is safety in numbers. Also, you have to consider car trouble. Tennnessee weather changes in minutes. It'll be 75 and in 30 mins it'll be 90. Be sure to check coolant levels and carry extra water/coolant.

Coming from Long Island, NY. Last year took a redonkey-kong amount of time something like 20 hrs and I had to do it solo straight thru to Chattanooga. Hope to have a little help this year.
This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo
