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!!
As a first timer, I am highly curious about the sexual effect of packing so many minimally dressed young people into a confined area for three days with plenty of booze and substances and a sea of tents.
Is there just mad Jacking going on in the campsites all the time? Do people hook up at Bonnaroo? Whats the story on this?
Sex happens (one of my favorite overheard snippets was "...so we were having sex this morning when the mescaline wore off and...") but probably not as much as you think. I'd say probably b/c; 1. after 12+ hrs of seeing shows you get pretty beat, 2. it can get really damn hot and 3. after about a day there EVERYONE has that "not so fresh feeling".

I have to say, bonnaroo would be the last place I would want to have sex at. I felt pretty dirty and digusting most of the time. Don't think I would want to get it on with a lady after walking through some nasty mud next to the porta potty

hahaha Thats kind of a weird question... Of course people are going to be hooking up its huge friggin party. As for "mad fucking in the campsites all the time" im sure if you found the right campsite that would be true. Just go to the Roo' you'll have fun.
Man you guys get grossed out easily, everyone should love a little hot sweaty festival sex... Besides this is one of those infinate uses for baby wipes...

I'm usually all about picking up, but I can say that Bonnaroo is just about the only place I've ever been (besides church) where the thought never crossed my mind. YOu'd think with all of that stuff in your system that you'd basically hit it with the first thing that moved, but the fact is... the whole experience gets pretty rank pretty fast.
Gosh, Americans are such SERIOUS hygene freaks! Can't you get creative and work a sponge bath or solar shower into foreplay?
I personally like the idea of a big, happy, sweaty, festival full of happy, sweaty people exploring new bands, new substances, and each other. ;D "Hot Sweaty Festival Sex" can't be SO bad.
I think its a matter of priorities. I would much rather see a band play then bump uglies with somebody. I can try to get laid any day of the week. But when am I going to be able to see Oysterhead again.

I just meant meet up and give me a shot to earn it. As to your original post, I have never noticed a lot of sex at any festie I have been to. I have also not partaken in much. Add music, sun, and partying and half the time you are too beat, and of course back to the hygiene issue.

I just think its a matter of distraction. There was too much going on to think about getting laid. I remember last year at the mars volta show some girl was flirting with me pretty obviously, but i was so into the show i didnt realize till after. I was a little disapointed, she was pretty hot, but it didnt really matter much.

I’ve always gone solo and although it has crossed my mind on occasion, I was always way too busy with the shows. I’ve never had a problem with hot sweaty festival sex; it’s just that my wife won’t let me date!
For those who can, (I’ll quote NIKE here) Just Do It
Those of you who said they have pictures of the couple screwing at the black crowes set last year, this thread would be a good time to post the pics. or at least e-mail them to me.

I came in by bus last year and we camped with a bunch of peeps we met along the way. I know one couple hooked up (well a temporary couple i suppose ) may have happened with two other people as well but i dunno for sure.
Im sure its possible to find everything from a prostitute to a virgin at the Roo'...
This is one of the most hilarious threads so far - keep it going...
As for me, my opinion is also that there's so much music there, and that's what I'm there for. I just can't give the attention needed to the girls around me with the once in a lifetime music experience going on in front of me.
Let us sum up what we've learned on this thread so far, and then MOVE ON.
1) Nut, or "Tennessee" butter is a major concern for 'roo goers in regard to potential festival sex. Puritanical concern about that "not so fresh feeling" is prevalent.
2) No women appear to post, ever, except me.
3) The music takes priority over getting laid.
4) A couple reportedly copulated during the Black Crowes concert last year (but pictures have yet to surface).
5) During 'roo, hot weather and physical exhaustion seem to inhibit sexual ambition.
6) There exist scattered reports of people hearing about other people that got laid during 'roo.
Sweet! Now that we have that covered, can some ladies chime in here? Can we explore some different aspects of this topic please - or does this pretty much cover it?
I think that pretty much covers it. It's just not at the top of the list for a lot of people.....as for me and mine, it just doesn't seem that exciting to have sex in the heat and the grime, especially given that the opportunity to clean up afterward is somewhat limited.
This thread has inspired the inventor in me... I'm going to invent something like a disposable baby wipe, but bigger, like the size of a towel. "Towel Wipes." that way you only need 1 or 2, and don't have to use half a box of wipes to get rid of a case of tennessee butter. while I'm at it I'll combine the properties of hand sanitizer and personal lubricant into one product: "Sani-Lube". I'll package the towel wipes and sani-lube together with some baby powder, deodorant, mouthwash, condoms, No-Doz pills, Viagra, and a Portishead CD and sell it as the Bonaroo Sex Kit. and I'll walk up and down shakedown street yelling "got yer sex kit here!" I'll make a mint!

With a Portishead CD included I would have to call it the:
