It's Bonnaroo weekend!
This is the greatest music festival ever. Its 4 nights and 3 days of music all day and all night long! There are multiple stages with multiple genres of music all happening at once. You are musically enveloped!
Me and a friend went to Bonnaroo in 2003 and 2004. It was a 12 hour road trip to the middle of nowhere Tennessee. We camped out, met lots of people, had crazy adventures and listened to a lot of great music. All the music was fantastic. Stages start going around noon. There are 4 main stages and a few smaller ones. They go all day until the about 9pm when that night's headliner plays. After the headliner finishes the other main stages start up again and go from midnight to sun up. Then start over the next day! The amount of music we heard and saw was just an incredible experience.
My Bonnaroo days are over but I'm glad to see it still going strong...

Oh come on. Never say never.
Jim, I agree with Joan. I'm getting in on this summer's "Outside Lands Festival" in August in San Francisco. It's put on by the same company that does Bonnaroo, too. One of the joys of having kids is that when they're watching Sesame Street or playing Legos, you can justify being a part of it "for them." When they get older and they want to go to the Outside Lands Festival, well, they need *supervision* of some sort, right? So, I'm going just for her so she can enjoy it. ;)
I've been advocating a family trip to Jazz Fest for years. With 2 of the 5 at LSU next spring, it looks like '09 might be the year!
