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!!
1) your own poop kit. includes tp (in ziplok in case of rain), some charmin fresh mates wipes in a ziplock, and $.99 travel bottle of hand sanitizer. this comes with me into centeroo too. don't ever assume the porto's will have tp. the freshmates are killer, no only for your rump, but for hands and face too. a crown royal bag works best for this stuff. this may be gross to talk about but you'll thank me when you have this stuff.
2) a camera. (also in a ziplok for rain) you'll want to soak in as much of roo as possible. cameras help the short term memory challenged (me)
3) sun protectors- rimmed hat, sunglasses, sunblock
4) camelbak for h2o and to carry the above mentioned stuff. and if you sneak in a couple beers in the bottom then shame on you.
5) bandanna- a true multi-tasker. blocks sun from head/neck, dust mask, sweat wipe, ask the beer vendors to dip it in the ice baths and squeeze over your head then put around your neck. awesome!
6) one of those battery powered bottle spray fans! totally righteous!

just five? hmm...
i saw a guy get nailed in the head with a cell phone!! some guys came running up a few seconds later saying some naked spunion came running by, grabbed it out of dude's hand and chucked it like a football without even stopping!
^^thats possibly the funniest thing ive read/heard all week long.. lol.
I just posted this in another thread, but if you are driving...PACK A SEPARATE SET OF SPARE KEYS!!!
I threw my extras in a bag on a whim, and wound up needing them as my original set ultimately disappeared. In the end they became the most important thing I packed for the entire weekend...
"We're no longer called Sonic Death Monkey. We're on the verge of becoming Kathleen Turner Overdrive, but just for tonight, we are Barry Jive and his Uptown Five. "
^ I agree. My co-host's bag was stolen from the fountain last year (be careful with your stuff around there. There are assholes in every crowd). He had his car keys in his bag, along with his keys, his wallet, camera, and other stuff. Luckily, he had someone send him his keys.
This year, we'll def be bringing a spare set. BUT, if you have a duplicate set of keys made for your car, make sure you test them out first! I've gotten several sets of keys that didn't work.

I'll second that. The older the key you're getting copied, the less likely it is to work. And (speaking from nasty experience) test in both the door and the ignition. Door locks tend to be a tad more forgiving than the ignition. Make sure your extra key works in both places.
There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard. No song that I could sing. But I can try for your heart Our dreams, and they are made out of real things Like a, shoebox of photographs With sepiatone loving Love is the answer
A little feeling in my gut that I get of late when I think about these cats running the world with hate
I got a couple of sets of Etymotics for ACL last year and they have saved my ears countless times. I wouldn't think of doing a concert (or festival) without them now.

GLOWSTICKS!!! Immensly fun and useful.
I know it's been discussed at length on this board, but if you are going to invest in glowsticks, please look into glow rings instead. Glow Sticks hurt. Glow Rings don't. Think of your fellow fans. No one wants to be hit in the head with a glow stick while trying to enjoy a song.
The coolest thing I saw last year was a glow stick hitting a guy in front of me in the head and exploding glow stick juice everywhere during The Flaming Lips show. Might not have been so cool for the guy that got hit but I was on a few party favors that made it awesome!
1) Sheet to hang from sun shade to block sun 2) Tent stake mallet (SO much better than a hammer) 3) Lots of water 4) Coleman 5-day cooler - totally agree with the OP. it lasted forever. However, you can make it last even longer if you take a smaller cooler too and move your day's supply into the smaller cooler once or twice a day. The less you open the cooler, the colder things stay 5)Hand sanitizer & baby wipes
