Our group is up to at least 13.... leaving from Clarkston. Most of our crew was stuck going to a wedding last year... and they won't ever let the happy couple forget it! So now, everyone is extremely anxious to get back there this year.
As an aside, last year 4 of us went to the Jack Daniels Distillery on Saturday morning - about 20 minutes away. Wasn't a problem slipping out of Roo and returning by noonish. Definitely worth the trip if you can get there, especially if you're a fan of Jack like I am.

Hell yeah, the winds today were crazy. I'm lucky, here in Dearborn, not to lose my power. It seems a ton of people did. Anyways try and stay warm you guys. Peace.
Hey, I plan on going with a few of my friends for a summer trip before going off to different colleges.
Coming out of Kalamazoo, any tips on how to get there? I've read a lot of exit 112, but not a lot of information about it, all seems kind of vague. Is it reliable, and how would I get there coming from good ol' Michigan.

haha peterpants, i like the avatar. a few years back my ex and i were going to take an impromptu roadtrip to visit a wawa (and a few sonics on the way back) but he chickened out.

ahaha thats creepy
and thank you for your kind offer. ill keep it in mind. a caravan would def be cool. its hard to put together though cause everyone has their own plan of action/time they want to leave/route they want to take.

Nope lol it's some big 4 seater my friends got. They're all festival virgins so they're planning for overpacking and doingthat whole scene. I'll have to sit down with them and spark one up and explain just what the f really goes down lol. But you're more than welcome. My friends driving from NY to here to meet me (Dearborn) and my buddy Gregs out in Ann Arbor.

this is really driving me nuts now. I can't afford both Rothbury and Bonnaroo...yet I prefer the Roo lineup a bit more, but Rothbury is only 2 hours away, less hot, less dusty, and with less than half the crowd. Ahhhh what to do!?

^^ i'm in the same spot as you. earlier today i was dead set on just skipping roo all together to go to rothbury. im def going to rothbury [it would be stupid not to, its in our home state] but i have a feeling ill regret it if i miss roo. 2008 would be my 4th bonnaroo. i NEED to find a way to do both. maybe i should volunteer. i wish i was rich!
