Wooohoo! Hello everyone! I've been lurking since a couple weeks before this year's Roo and fell in love with this board. I found all of the info I needed for my first Bonnaroo experience to the point where my friends ended up calling me an expert, ha! So I figured it was only natural to start posting. I'm a moderator on a band message board, so I'm quite familiar with how things roll on the internet and am really excited to get to know another online community.
