I have to have my roo pile ready by tuesday. Going to Waka and then straight to roo. Only need a tent and food items. Will think about a flag but not sure yet.

Last year I filled up a couch a month before bonnaroo with all my stuff, this year I have most of the supplies sitting in my garage or in my bedroom, but its not organized yet. Thats my plan for next week. I still have about 6 packages of dtuff bonnaroo I am getting next week that better arrive.
I had a great pile that me and my ex-gf had accumulated over the last three years of going together but she confiscated it all. I have a very small pile now.(tent, slepping bag, air mattress, and battery operated fan) No cooler, canopy, or camel-bak. It's gonna be a lot rougher than years past, but I will be more free to do whatever I want instead of baby-sitting her. Yay for that!
Gots a pile! Tent, canopy (which is big enough to share, if anyone near us finds him/herself shadeless!!!), camelbacks, Luggable Loo (my personal fave) sleeping bags, LED toys and Glowies (including LED pinwheels!!! Spin and flash WHEEEE!!!), biodegradable garbage bags, NOM-ables (enough to share), cookstove, tatami mats, and my MEGAhat, 4 Neutrogena spray sunblocks, and a serious 1st aid kit for burns, bites, and cuts. Still to come:cooler and frozen water, clothes.
I go a little Bonnacrazy every time I walk past it.
We've got 2 small roo piles started, today we search for all the odd ball/small stuff since we just recently moved and are not sure where everything is!

My pile keeps growing every week. Some how everytime I go to a store I can find something that will be of use at bonnaroo. Now If I could just sort through it all I'd be set.
jhointn- I got those same tubs...but I only have one partially filled so far. I am downgrading from last year and bring less shiz.
I just picked up a sprinkler shower head thingie and a pice of hose and added that to the Bonnapile. I pretty much finished buying stuff besides the food and some rainboots for husband. I kind of want to get some decorations for thee camp but not sure what to get.
glow in the dark makeup = awesome. never thought of that. also thx for someone reminding me i need to clean off the bubble stuff that got sandy at the beach.
going over the final list tomorrow. just about everything is purchased. just about. need to pick up another canopy since the ezup got smashed. that, and roo groceries which I am getting on thursday or friday.

Yeah Inforoo has led to me spending around a grand on stuff for Bonnaroo, all of which I now consider necessary, and in my test runs it all fits nicely into my car. If I had much else I might run into problems however.
how many coolers does everyone have in their pile? we have four for three people. well, one is a tiny square beach one just for car snacks on our 12h drive, so three big coolers for three people. big to me, anyway, they're the 55qt ones. two seemed very small so i got one more, and its an xtreme. i am figuring one for frozen (ice pops and such and meats \- not frozen but very cold on top of the dry ice) one cool and one drinks. also one of ours the lid has a crap fit sort of (got rain in it a little during trial run while empty) so if three is too many then that's the one to go.

3 coolers for 4 people, that's what I am planning. We may put one more in, if needed when we load the car. We are really only loading water, beer, and capri sun. (I'm too lazy to be responsible enough to get ice every morning again)
I never thought of a dry run with the car this year, I did it my first 'roo but this year I know two guys will carry beer coolers in their laps for the 3 hour ride to sacrifice for beer(they know my first idea is to leave the coolers and buy them at wal-mart, if stuff doesnt fit). Maybe we'll do a dry run when we are pre-pre-gaming this week.
dont really have a pile, as i havent started yet, but i just ordered some blinkies today that will do nicely with that pile...just hope that they arrive on time
i have a few piles that will make one big pile this week. i just hope that it won't be too heavy seeing how i am flying in. I just hope that i don't damage my boyfriend's military duffel bag.

You must have quite the pile, I've got room for plenty of junk in my car with two coolers and the EZ up. I might be able to fit one of your coolers in my car if needed!
My coworker/former roo attendee brought some stuff for me to borrow today so now I dont have to worry about hte big stuff. I plan on completing my roo pile this sunday hopefully.
Garth Algar: Do you ever get the feeling Benjamin's just using us?
Wayne Campbell: Good call. It's like he wants us to be liked by everyone. I mean Led Zeppelin didn't write tunes everybody liked. They left that to the Bee Gees.

Damn, our pile must be huge because you've seen what I drive and it barely fits. I think it's because I have everything in rubbermaid totes and they take up mucho space. Thanks for the offer. We can probably get by with one cooler.

Yeah I can see the totes causing space issues. I'm sure I'll be wishing I had stuff in totes when I'm digging through a pile in my trunk looking for something though.
I started my Roo pile last night! I went through the packing list last night, crossed off about 75% of the things on there (I brought a lot of stuff last year I didn't need at all), and now I have a stack of camping gear in the corner of my room. Now I really feel like it's just around the corner ;D
