2012 will be my 4th Roo (08, 09, 11) and I am looking forward to having my best year yet! I just wanted to officially declare my love for this website and how it has helped me over the years! My experiences each year are unforgettable and I continue to be surprised how different each year can be, while still being the same amazing "summer camp for music lovers."
My first year was eye opening, such a new experience going to a festival out in the middle of nowhere! The lineup in 08 blew me away, which also helped a ton! I had been upgraded to VIP as a birthday present, and the easy access was unparalleled, I didn't realize how nice no lines were until later trips to the farm.
My second year on the farm I brought friends! My coworker and his wife joined us, and despite a rough start when our campsite turned into a mud pit overnight, the change to GA was a whole new wonderful world of Bonnaroo! Hay fixes mud, so our dire situation quickly picked up pace, and the people around us were amazing. This was what I had missed my first year in VIP, the interactions and relationships bonded in the inevitable cluster-quack that is GA camping! Another amazing lineup rounded out a perfect trip...
Life took me away in 2010, but not having filled my thirst for my music addiction pre-sale tickets for 2011 were purchased on black Friday. One friend with myself and my wife, and one super hot Bonnaroo back in GA. Took in a shade-less solo Roo'er who was an amazing addition to our camp. I wouldn't have predicted this but for the first time my top two or three shows from that year were rap acts!
After last year I was really wiped out for a few days after, and thought it might be my last Roo for awhile... However over time the bad memories will fade, but the good ones stay strong... My friend from 2011 gave me a call with a plan. I mentioned this year was going to be my best Bonnaroo ever...
With some hard work, this year I have a group of 8 people going down in an RV! Friends from NH, MA, VA, WV, NC, and TX all coming together to enjoy life for 4 days!! 5 out of the 8 will be first timers! They are all brimming with excitement, yet can't even begin to imagine what will unfold for them during their week long trek in the Tennessee sun. From the first time the walk into Centeroo, to their first night coming back from an epic late night set at 6 am...
Each year, so different and so amazing. The constant for me has been Inforoo! The overwhelming sense of Bonnaroo itself lives in these forums. So much knowledge and experience, an answer for any and all questions... Thank you for helping us all with our annual migration to farm, I couldn't have done it without you all! I'll see you ALL in June!
I was lying in a burned out basement With the full moon in my eyes. I was hoping for replacement When the sun burst thru the sky. There was a band playing in my head And I felt like getting high.
WOW! How did you get all those first timers on board? Love this post! I can't wait to see what it's like the second time around, and see what it's like for the first time again through the eyes of my best buddy! WE LOVE YOU TOO!! Friday for you good sir!
I really just broke down the numbers. Talked up the cost of seeing artists separately vs seeing so many in one place. The lineup helped for sure, and the RV trip it self was appealing to most of them.

After years and years of recruiting, our normal group of 5 turned into 17 in 3 RVs. Crazy.
It goes to show why tickets seem to have been going faster. Most Rooers keep coming back and add to their group every year...
I hope that some day my crew grows this large... However the Bonnaroo fever seems to be the greatest after your first visit, so with 5 new people, the expansion might be around the corner!
