My Bonnaroo started in 2010 and that was the first music festival I ever went to. It introduced something really awesome into my life and now I think about Roo all the time. Love it so much. Inforoo helped me prepare for that one and has helped me learn so much more since. If it wasn't for you guys I wouldn't of been in the Arcade Fire pit last year. This will be my third year in a row and I bought my ticket months ago.
I wrote about my experiences at Bonnaroo and how it was for me. I think y'all will enjoy it, as I know when I was preparing for my first one I read a bunch of firsthand account stories and they were so great:
"We danced to bands with tens of thousands of other people. Sang along to songs we knew and more we didn’t. In the darkness, hundreds of glowsticks streaked the air like tracer shots in war. Giant inflatables bounced over dozens of light sabers pointed skyward. Stuffed animals impaled on sticks danced above the hot crowds, puppeted by someone just given ecstasy by a friend made seconds before. A man wore a dildo helmet wrapped in Christmas lights. Bass made the ground vibrate. There was noise everywhere, and at all times."
Happy Roo, all! Especially you first timers who will be popping into these threads.

So glad you are going to Roo this year. It was great to get to meet you at Sarah and Mike's. You have a great vibe, one that reminds me of the whole of Roo. I didn't know anyone last year except Maynard and I had an amazing time. I can only guess that this year with all the Inforoo people it's going to be mindblowing fun.
I grew up in Memphis so I started going to Beale St. Music Fest my freshman year of high school. 2010 was my first 'Roo and I want to go every year I can. This will be my third. My second year was great, but my first year changed my life.
Cool thread....my roo started year one too, and year two my favorite moment, ankle deep in mud, 10 feet from Neil Young (ok, he was late, but)..what an experience. I had to miss 3 - 8 (work far off), but back for 9, 10, and now 11.
I think overall experience was probably best last year, mainly due to a new friend and campmate (met on inforoo's site), who I will be camping again with this year...had fun going alone, but knowing I'll be camping with a friend. Much better.

sweet!! thanks sista, catch wait to catch up with you again too ;D
I still have fond memories of my first Bonnaroo in 2007. I went with two of my best friends, who at the time were definitely not on friendly terms (another story fer another time). But we all went together with two other friends and camped together. By the end of the festival those two had put past differences aside and to this day we're all good friends! We showed up with three tents fer five people, and only two tarps and two coolers. In my opinion it was still the hottest year I've attended, and we were completely unprepared! But we made do, and my buddy Tyler made a make-shift pole of beer cans that we drank within the first hour.
