COSTUMAROO!! If you are having even a moment’s concern about what to wear to Bonnaroo – study this photo for a moment. Anything you bring that is cool, comfortable, colorful, and YOU feel right in – that’s what to wear.

RESTAROO!!!! If at any point you must rest, feel free to lay down on the ground in the shade, in the sun, in a tree or anywhere your body may fit!

Smellaroo!! Port-a-john’s get smelly and run out of toilet paper… that’s ok. You may want to bring your own TP, and a bandana or nose plug!

SOUNDAROO!! You must love music. The musicians LOVE to perform at Bonnaroo! Camp out for a short time at the Music Tents for lesser known artists and get a front row view as in John Prine and Shovels and Rope! Camp out for a longer time for the big stages, but remember there are HUGE screens if you want to hang back sipping a cool adult beverage – Bonnaroo viewing can be very comfortable and accessible to all!

PUKAROO!!? Mrs. Jones knows how to pace herself… so much heat, crowds, and people watching can make a person thirsty. Unfortunately we witnessed a pukaroo or two… Be smart!
Mrs. Jones is desperately trying not to get stung by a bee in the VIP tent area… some of which have AC units, cots, tables and electricity! But be forewarned the shower lines can be insane at peek hours for the women of Bonnaroo- – some have been known to sneak into the Men’s showers.
Mrs. Jones prefers a little more civilization bringing all of her shoes, shimmy’s and Jack Daniels with her. She arrived at a fashionable hour in style Thursday. VIP gives you special directions on getting in on the back of your parking pass. Total time from pulling into Manchester to being parked and plugged into a 30 amp power grid 54 minutes. Time to make the first cocktail 35 seconds.

Mrs. Jones figured out that at the What stage in the late afternoon where the Tennessee sun will absolutely melt her newly purchased White Claw beverage from the vending area (yes! they sell them) the only shade is right up front. Here she captured her fellow Bonnaroovians watching Brandi Carlisle and The Lumineers.

Mrs. Jones gave up food preparation early on at the festival choosing instead to hit the many food options presented at Bonnaroo. Here seen perusing the options.
