As my Inebriated buddy walks out of the Porto, he yells out, "Dude...I love this place...bonnaroo thinks about everything...they even put beer holders next to the toilet!"
Had to break it to him that that was the urnal. Good times good times!
jumper cables are a must! last year my car died the first day from locking and unlocking my power door locks. i have AAA but they wouldn't allow them on the farm! we had a wonderful neighbor that jumped us off!!
Major Question --- Due to the fact that there are NO outlets for electricity, and everyone says "Bring a FAN for your tent" - I don't think i've ever heard of a Battery Operated Fan... I would assume that the batteries would die ExTreMeLy fast, powering a fan..? Do they have these?
check out the fans from rei - this will give you an idea of what to look for - there are lots of options in lots of sizes that take lots different batteries. The descriptions on each should tell you how long they will run for - but keep in mind - you will only need them in the morning times - it gets cool at night and you will not need a fan then

Also a power inverter for your car could power a fan for a little while, but it would probably run the battery dry overnight. I used mine to charge cel phones batteries and my laptop daily. Rechargable batteries are a must if you have one and take lots of pictures or use handheld fans which are also a must. Now its getting time to gather supplies. I am about to have to raid my garage and setup my tents and canopies in the backyard.

34 days to go, time to order glowsticks and anything else.
Yup! I'm about to place an order for more glow sticks when I get paid next week. I have about 25 necklace ones left from my stash for my glow stick hoop and I need more for the hoops I'm making for people and my own personal stash. :-)
