Bonnaroo

Anyone ever gone? I had such an amazing time & can't wait to go back this year. I was just wondering if any of you all have ever been there & if you have any fun stories. It really was an experience of a lifetime ...

3. my twins went

last year...came home very muddy, sunburned and damp, but had a great time. Their stories were very reminiscent of Woodstock stories.
They hope to go again this year...if they can arrange to get enough $$ together.

8. Wish I could!

I'm in WV though - it's a little out of my way. But, there are lots of Bonnaroo message boards out there - you might be able to meet up with someone that way. Hope it works out!

9. It is Hell on earth

with breaks for wonderful music. I think I would only go again if they moved it to spring/fall or if I decided to start doing strong drugs.

10. Yeah - it can be tough.

Especially last year with all the rain & mud. It's also a complete escape from reality - and that's what I loved about it.

11. The heat was a major problem as well

The sunburns I saw...good lord! But I agree, It was like whole different world. I just think it would be more pleasant in a different season.
