My most recent Bonnaroo dream involved the girlfriend and I staying in some hotel room and watching Thursday night acts on a closed circuit feed on the television. Fu*king PRINCE (dude had pyrotechnics and crazy lasers) was playing and she didn't want to go for some reason. I cried in the dream and may or may not have woken up with tears in my eyes. I was thinking that "oh man, she's totally not going to want to go to anything because of the heat."
I love the girl with all my heart, but we have an understanding that Roo is not for her.

I feel your pain,bro! My gf is the same way. She is not one for the heat and dirt, and bonnaroo has tons of both. She has considered Coachella as well, but that might be as bad if not worse for her as far the heat goes.
The first year we went out (2005)I gave up going to the festival because of her for the most part, but she understands this is one of my things that Jay likes and she lets it be...although I wish she could go.
This has nothing to do with bonnaroo, but everything to do with dreams. The other night I had the craziest, most realistic dream ever. Where some warlock dude was trying to get us to join his cult and cast spells on people. It was sooooo strange cause it was in the 1st and 3rd person and I remembered everything(which hardly ever happens). He persuaded my friend to join, but I refused and he kept following me and was hiding in a tree watching and studying my every move. I remember he had on some crazy black leather boots with gold toes. The one spell he was trying to teach us was brought to fruition through the words "Already Dead." I dunno. It was kinda scary. I woke up 3 or 4 times through the night and tried to end the dream, but everytime I fell asleep I kept going back to it. I did not like.
Now back to dreams of crazy Rooness and nonsensical wondrousness.
Staying the dream subject, over the past weekend I had a dream where I was a kid and I was playing on a basketball team. We were winning and there was only one minuite to play.
The ball was trying to get inbounded to me, but this kid has me in a full nelson and the ref wasn't calling foul. I threw all my weight back and we dropped to the ground and I proceeded to jab him in the ribcage. I then heard my girlfriend shout "owww!" and then woke up and realized it was her that I just jabbed. Doh!!

Exactly.
She has basically said "this will be your little thing ever year." We're planning on going to the McDowell Mountain Fest together though, so it's not like I leave her completely hanging! Plus she had a blast at the little Mabon Fest in the fall last year.

In 2004 the heat (wich was particularly bad) really got to my girlfriend! Since she was feeling pretty bad already, she refused to eat anything (and drank very little water)...Needless to say, this made her feel much worse. Out of fuel, borderline dehydrated and unwilling to listen to anyone's advice, she sort of freaked-out on friday. I don't think that she fully understood what we were getting into since this was our first Roo experience. We spent several hours in the first-aid tent while she was administered i.v. fluids. I was pretty bummed about everyting until I saw some of the other people who came in needing medical attention. I saw a guy with a NASTY dog bite, a girl with abroken ankle, and this one guy with the worst case of poison ivy that i've ever seen (his whole head was swollen-up to a frighteneing size. His eyes were swollen shut and his tongue was so bad, no one could understand a word he was saying)After that, I think we both felt alot better and everything went pretty smoothly until the rain destroyed all of our stuff on saturday. Every year has gotten MUCH better since then and i'm very hopeful about '07.
My wife is not in the whole Roo thing either. I think it is the whole "comforts of home" thing. On another note, is it bad that Im posting on the drunken threas at work?

I'm doing the girlfriend experiment for the first time this summer. She's pretty excited about it, hopefully i can prepare her properly, only time will tell though.....
Not drunk enoghf! I am trying to take the girl im dating down to Roo, so far she says shes going I just hope she is ready for it. (saying things will be fine till then)
Anyway onword to the drunkin rambleing!
now im not totaly agenst my chemical romance but on the fron of the spin magazine it has them with a quote from one of them saying "Kids were gonna kill themseves. then they heard our music" so what dose that mean? more dead kids? now I dont have anything agenst any music someone wants to listen to but how dose this work out?
next rambleing
Where the hell is "christmas on mars" from the flaiming lips Seriously!
damn you must be drunk to not be totally against my chemical romance i think its just dilusional full of themselves star talk that saying their music has stopped kids from killing themselves. its caused far more adults to commit suicide then it has save kids.

****ONLY MY OPINION*****
Yeah, I gotta agree.... My Chemical Romance is one of the cheesiest, most pre-fab bunch of popsters that i've heard in years! It's just derivitve Pseudo-Goth-Angst, "edgy" enough to scare your parents, but catchy enough to impress pre-teen girls! They may have a following, but I can't imagine that following being present at Bonnaroo. This is a serious music festival for serious music fans, not a bubble-gum version of OzFest!
Dont get me wrong! I DO NOT LIKE THEM, im just saying i dont care what they do its fine with me, if they wana make mucsic good for them but it dose not mean i have to listen
i blame parents. if they showed there kids good music then all these radio bands wouldnt exist. music is too important to leave it up to peer pressure to influence them.

Amen...my parents raised me on some of the best music of all time and that is why music is my passion in life. My dad even taught me that Loan Me A Dime is good Boz Scaggs and Lido Shuffle is poppy sh;t when I was real young, an invaluable lesson.

Has anyone ever seen "Boogie Nights"? I'm sure that almost everyone has, but I had to ask that so that I could ask this: Has anyone ever noticed that one of the songs that Dirk and Reed record after quitting the porn business is from the soundtrack of "Transformers: The Movie"? The one that goes... "You've got the touch, You've got the power, (blah, blah, blah), You're nobody's fool!" ...And other lyrics as well. Is this a song that I should know or is it just weird as hell?

Who else think espn has the best commercials on tv. I have espn on basically all day, so i see all the commercials, and i think they're all really good. I hate most commercials, but this is about the only channel i dont mind sitting through commercials. The college game day ones are my personal favorites.
i love the blind date one with an osu and uofm fan. i especially enjoy how the uofm girl is hot and the osu dude is a dweeb. (btw dweeb is an awesome word)

I didn't realize there are so many of you here. What bothers me about OSU is everyone has to say "THE Ohio State University." Is there more than one; do people get confused so you have to distinguish it by saying "the"? (pronounced theee). I know it's in the official name of the university, but c'mon.
