Damn..INSOMNIA...kept me reading this whole thread, it was like a made for tv stories! Wish I could just bounce from one place to another, but the responsibility think keeps me from roaming. great read though
As my Inebriated buddy walks out of the Porto, he yells out, "Dude...I love this place...bonnaroo thinks about everything...they even put beer holders next to the toilet!"
Had to break it to him that that was the urnal. Good times good times!
"Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us." — Charles Bukowski

WOW!
I have lurked here since Dec 06 (longtime lurker, first time poster).... Somehow I've missed this thread. What an amazing story and what wonderful ROOSTERS to lend this guy a hand. This really is what Bonnaroo is all about!

^I was over at teines Thursday and asked about him actually. Apparently no one has heard from him in a couple of years. It would cool though if we could catch up to him.
Fantastic story, just read it through at work. Some of the dissenters irritated me, glad that I don't see most of them posting anymore. Hope Kramer and Missdemeanor are doing well, wherever they are!

I remember this whole hippiekramer thing. I came in on the tail end. As I remember kramer posted on this board in 2007 that he had lost his dog on the farm and needed a ticket to get in Bonnaroo so a very generous Inforooster bought him a ticket.
He came back on these boards a month before the 2008 Bonnaroo with the same story that he had lost his dog and needed to get back to the farm. You know, expecting someone to buy him a ticket again.
Everyone smited him for apparently taking advantage of everyone's generosity. Then he disappeared.
Well that's a shame if it's true. Still a good story, his later transgressions don't negate (for me) the amazingly positive reactions of people from this board and the town of Manchester when he was not asking for anything.
Uh, don't you people realize when you give people like them hand out's you are being taken advantage of. Tell them to get a job, make money to live like the rest of us. "Oh what's that? You did so many NO NO WORD!!! that you can't function enough to live in the real world?" ...Not my fault, not getting my HARD EARNED money

I hope you never need a handout. Personally in my life I have been saved, and amazed by the kindness of complete strangers enough to make me feel like giving back when I can.
You've got to realize that there are people who really NEED help in order to get their life "straight" again and then there are people who are a-okay with other people paying for them to live, day after day after day. That's not negative. Living on the free isn't "cool" when everyone else is paying for it. Hand outs and helping hands are different.

May i also add that i think a bonnaroo ticket should be the least of someones worries who doesn't have 250 dollars in the first place... where's the priorities here?
It doesn't sound like this guy got a crappy deal out of life. It sounds like he made his choices, and they were to be a mooching bum. Great, you love music and want to roam around and see some festivals. Earn the money to see them first. I had no job for quite some time and no form of income to pay for Bonnaroo. What did I do? Found a quacking job so I didn't have to mooch tickets off of someone.
