    It appears most of us are working class and doing all we can to go to 'roo. I think some being there, will be new to this experience (me!) and just as equally struggling. I am positive we will all look out for each other. See you there!

    Hey there "Speedy McCready," Thanks for asking. Actually - my husband and I are going to be "tenting" it - because I want the entire experience. But I promise ----we do use deoderant! I think it'll be fun! We want to meet you! I personally like your sarcastic "humor." It would be fun to meet up with everyone - even if it IS in the SOUTH! Ha!

    Hey there "Speedy" -
    Of course we would like to meet you - along with everyone else on this thread! We may have to walk 9 miles (ha!) to do it! But we are nonetheless committed and happy about going! We plan to stay the entire 4 days - and hopefully will figure out how to get a "shower" somewhere in between....but as long as we use deoderant....and apparently....baby wipes?.....we will somehow survive.....I'm sure! You need to seek out the "Let's meet up at the 'roo" sight there. While I appreciate R.V.'s and all - that's not my personal idea of camping! No "comforts of home" for me. I will have that when I actually return home. However, we would like to meet you just the same - as I'm sure most would!

    Who started this thread? I just think that there should be some kind of "Banner" or "flag" in the camping sight so others can "identify" with our "Jamily." Never been to 'roo, however, I just don't think that meeting up at "Center Roo" would be the way to go about it. No offense. We need to discuss this further. So we all actually can meet up with each other. I'm listening...................! Ideas......? Comments..........?

    This is your thread.....so....all eyes on you. How do we identify you....so we can meet up for this little "gathering?" Great idea. Want to do it....as others apparently would. So - with that said....what's the "Game Plan" (to quote "Speedy McCready." We have time.......any suggestions? Not to take over this thread - but I think that an actual way to meet, is in order. I think some are depending on this. Let's "get this together!'

    well i dont think it's just me heheh, but i think it's all something we should have some input on. this will actually be my first true festival experience in regard to camping out, so i think it should be a combination of many people pitching in. what would you guys like to do? personally, i say we initially meet at a central meeting place given we don't know where we are camping yet, then all head back to the camping-only area and eat, drink, and be merry. we've got plenty of time to iron out the details though.

    Getting tired from music??!??! NEVER!!!! :D
    The Roo is a non-stop 24-hr extravaganza; I honestly wouldnt expect people to show up while other bands are playing; in addition, everyone schedules, even sleep schedules get a bit screwy and time doesnt really exist while you are there. (not saying you feel that way) But it gets difficult to get everyone on the same schedule...
