Oh boy. Here's what I tell my other friend with this exact problem. Write down a list of things you can buy for 55 bucks. Keep it in a safe, easily accessable place so that when the urge hits you, it'll be easier to say no.
I recommend not buying a colorful string of plastic for 55 dollars, but that's just me haha. Think of the steak you could eat for that price...
Cringed reading this? They told me in person, I almost fell down and had a heart attack. I can't believe that people actually roll out to a festival like that... although my best festie girl, relies on me to make our schedule, so I guess I can believe that people roll out like that. Fucking CRAZY, IMO.
I went with 4 friends last year. I was the only one that had a schedule. On top of that, one of the girls made our group miss Little Dragon for wiz because "he's the only artist I'm really familiar with" SMH 8531490 times!
F that, I'm not missing any of my top 10
Speaking of things that drive me crazy, people that don't try new things, and just do whatever they're used to. Comfort zones are boring. Everything you like now, was new at one point, and to act as if you know exactly what you like at really any age is silly, let alone 20 year olds. Some people don't belong at Bonnaroo, or just aren't ready yet.

If it makes you feel any better... I think it looks like a tooth.

Ahhh, the JT sig strikes again.
You can do this smelly. I'm sure there are cheap unicorn charms you can buy online.
I just had a road runner scare the shit out of me.
Everyone's cars/trucks are parked out in front of the trailers we stay in, and everyone has to back in the parking spot. I had to go turn in my afternoon report, so was walking out of trailer, in between two trucks. There was a road runner sitting on the trucks hood, and he didn't fly off til I was 2 feet from him. I didn't see him til he took off.
So I'm in need of some advice. A good friend of mine is coming to Roo with us and she's bringing her bf. I don't think he's been to a single music fest, he's one of those guys that are 100 mph 24/7. He wants to bring a wrestling ring for him and his brother. He's not the type of person I chill with. He could potentially ruin my Roo. I wouldn't mind seeing shows with her, but I wouldn't enjoy myself if I had to camp with them. Anyone have any suggestions? It's looking like there's goin be seven of us going.

Having been in this scenario, the way I see it, you've got 2 choices:
- Talk to them. See if you can get him to understand how important this is to you, tell him about why you love it, and maybe he'll chill out a bit because that's what's "expected" of him. - Just avoid him. When the group is holding you up, leave the group. It's a simple rule of thumb for Bonnaroo that works quite well. Maybe you can get some of the other people to go with you when you take off.

Is the girl and bf traveling in the car with y'all? If not, I wouldn't worry about him ruining your bonnaroo. If so, then you need to set "ground rules" from the jump. ie: let them know exactly who I am 100% not going to miss and my basic run down for each day.
I have been in situations where there have been 6 of us at a festival "together" but by giving everyone an idea of what my schedule was and who I had to see really helped and allowed others to either come with, or figure out their own thing. Of course, I have never been in the camping with those friends situation.

1. Have that talk now...the hardest to do but the one that will assure you have a good Roo.
2. Bail to TO as soon as you get there for religious reasons, link back up Sunday
3. be more opened minded about folks and give it a go. don't get mad, get in the ring you have somehow entangled yourself with this so take the ride and have fun no matter who is there.
Or do nothing and see how that plays out...its all a big crap shoot anyway. Hope it works out bud.
Thanks for the advice. The more I think about, the more I'm figuring out that I cannot camp with those two if they're both going together. They fight A LOT. I'm not planning on being at camp unless I'm eating, sleeping or hydrating. We're taking three cars. The bf's brother is driving from the opposite direction, so maybe they'll just camp with him far far away haha.

I'm sitting here, waiting to go to class, actively avoiding talking to this one girl because she is hands down the most negative person I have ever met in my life.
If she is my partner tonight, I might just start crying.

Rasta979's 2nd option mixed with the 3rd option... Go set up in T.O. and then you can go back to the spot y'all got next to the car and spend time with everyone but if it turns out to be unbearable for you, then you have the freedom to go back to your T.O. spot and you can go to the other camp site in small doses so it isn't too much for you to handle. Or, if they end up not being too bad, you can hang out around the main camp site as much as you want and you can use your T.O. just for sleeping and possibly as a small storage site
He's been into wrestling his whole life, he was an amateur for a bit. I've heard him and his 5 brothers just work out like crazy.
Sooooooo... he literally wants to bring one of these things?
If they did real wresting and not wwe stuff, they probably just mean a wrestling mat which is just flat cushions that have a circle in the middle when you put em together (which is where the term "ring" comes from for boxing/wrestling rings)

Oh yea that would make way more sense. Still terrible though.
noodle! are you, by chance, going to Bonnaroo with the two brothers from Foxcatcher?
This was more scary than crazy i guess, but during The xx we saw what looked like a fight at first, but apparently this MMA fighter lost his mind and attacked an old lady and was beating her and he attacked some other people too, and what we saw at The xx was his friend (also an MMA fighter) trying to restrain him because he was the only person big enough to do it. Then these people from the medical tent came and a cop was there too and he got handcuffed and carried away. Someone was saying he "ate some mushrooms he found on the ground"... uh..don't know how true that is but it definitely was not something we wanted to see.
That's pretty scary. I think we must have walked past the situation right before he started attacking people, because I remember a guy who looked extremely agitated & wild-eyed with 3 guys around him trying to calm him down. The guy was big, so we kept moving pretty quickly. Were all the folks alright who got attacked?
Oh man, I don't blame you for trying to avoid this (and that's coming from someone who was big in wrestling the state and worked out all the time.
Wait, like WWE or real wrestling?
WWE and yes a ring, an actual wrestling ring.
What the fuck, I'm gonna find out where they are camping from you and bring a speedo and dress like an old wrestler and go over there and fuck with them, hahaha (I am now taking entries for recommendations on which wrestler to dress as)
