In 2006 my husband and I went to our very first Bonnaroo music festival
in Manchester,
Tennessee. It was an amazing experience which resulted in an annual
trip to the Roo in the following years. This summer will be the 7th
trip and our last.... at least for a while. We have decided to start
trying to
have a baby after this years Bonnaroo. Each year we try to out do the
last; better campsite, better food, and try to see more bands. In the weeks
leading up to we practice setting up our elaborate campsite in our
yard. Since it is hot as hell in TN that time of year my husband gets
out the compass and we position our tent according to the sun. We also
like to eat well when there, last year we dinned on swordfish tacos with my
homemade salsa, marinated lamb kabobs, and goat cheese with some other
goodness to picnic when in the venue. Since the festival does not allow
glass bottles we have searched high and low for every premium beer that
comes in a can, my favorite is Dales Pale Ale. We have mastered the
art of smuggling those premo beers into Centerroo. Yesterday the gods
of Bonnaroo announced this years lineup and just like every year we
huddled around the computer to see it. This year was this first time that we bought our ticket in November before the lineup was announced. I am so excited for Major Lazar,
Skrillex, the Beach Boys, and so many others. Only 4 more months!!!!
