please family someone i need help i need help to get my ticket this year i got no cash but am willing to do almost anything to get in again this year last year was a blast and i am still the first person here at roo waiting love my rainbow family and my roo family pleas help hippiekramer get in and find my dog my dog
Can't blame a guy for trying... and in his defense, I do believe that he's first every year... and willing to work for tix... and walks... so he's got my respect.
Please tell me this is a joke. Not this clown again.
say whaaa?
Ya know what - if someone wants to start a donation thread again - I am more then willing to chip in - maybe some people think that is wrong and that Kramer is just a freeloader - I think he was given a raw deal last year and maybe he is not as prepared as he should be this year - but give the guy some repsect - he lives his life the way he wants - walks where he wants - I am jealous in a way that he has so much freedom!
Your dog's not at Roo dude. She's probably wondering about where her next meal is coming from.
Some of us did you up last year----and the first thing you can do when you get to a computer is ask for more ? with but one post ? i'm all about miracles and kindness, but at some point, don't you git it together so you can be the giver and not the taker ? this kind of crap gives hippies a worse name. is that your legacy ? me first and the gimmygimmies, eh ?

Due to your seemingly unforseeable and definitely unfortunate circumstances last year, My gf and I were way more than happy to help you out with your ticket. This time around you have had an entire year to plan for Bonnaroo and/or get your job eligiblity problems straightened-out. If going too Roo is that important to you, shouldn't you have been working on it for a while now? I know that I start planning and saving by January or February every year. I work hard for this yearly vacation because it means that much to me. Last year we all wanted to surprise you with a random act of kindness because you seemed to being having an unfairly rough time. This year you just show up and ask for a ticket. That seems very inappropriate and more than a little rude to me. I'm really not trying to be a d!ck or anything. I just don't understand how you're in this position again. I hope to see you there but, if you don't make it, it's your own fault.

I tend to agree with most of you. I am a very kind-hearted person and I would have done the same as Chris and Joel last year and done whatever I could had he turned up near my house. It really warmed my heart watching that story unfold.
But last year was a one off situation and people helped out without him asking. Now (even though he is offering to work) I feel like he is taking advantage of people's kindness and knows that if he managed to get taken care of once, then it will happen again.
Like Oaty said, we all plan ahead and make sure we can get the money together for tickets and we do what it takes. I am a single Mum and do not have much extra money, but I save what I have for me and my daughter do to something together and have a great time. I guess some of us are better at being responsible and taking care of our needs than others......

Yeah.... i sold off almost $1000 worth of my precious studio in order to make the trip...And i only had that because i work all day... It's one thing to get a favor...but when you just expect others to pay your way...that's just bullsh|t.

Personally, I've got no problems with someone asking. Is he taking advantage of someone else's kindness and generosity? Perhaps.... but that's his sin to bare, not ours. If I have an abundance of something, whether thru hard work or pure luck, and want to share it freely and without guilt, who's to say I shouldn't? There are a thousand things I could think of that I wouldn't share with someone just because they asked... music isn't one of them.

I guess the way I look at it is, that some of us, even if we don't have an abundance of anything, especially money, would give anyway, because we are good hearted and saw that he had a need. That is why I don't want to be taken advantage of. If I had plenty then believe me I woulld be happy to help out and it wouldn't be such a big deal.
I don't really have a problem with asking, but after a year to plan and prepare after experiencing last years problems, I wouldn't expect as much generosity for sure.
I've been going without a LOT in the past month, and saving my money carefully for the past 4 months. I'm drinking natty bo tonight instead of nicer beer, I'm forgoing other things so I can have them at roo...
I don't think anybody should call the guy a clown though
