http://www.bonnaroo.com/Possibly, however, if carpooling is not possible would you consider a caravan? Do your research and let me know what you think. Tickets for general admission are going to be about $250.00. Really, that’s a bargain if you consider how many great acts are going to be there.

My husband and I plan to attend that little festival in Tennessee called Bonnaroo, once our kids are safely away and happy. We have been on the website and picking and choosing favorites. It will be a couple of years of planning & budgeting for us. If you go this year, enjoy, it looks great.
That is some downtown concert. Anybody can find something to enjoy at Bonnaroo.

Aye Crumba, That looks like an incredible festival of many many peoples and types of music. But the travel it scares me. Today I have just passed through airport security and once again I am convinced that looking a little different or the slightest accent causes them to alert. The strip search routine reminds me too much of my country. In my country when the policia pull you in the stip search is only the beggining of the trip. Yet... this looks as if it will be much fun. Perhaps if one drove, very carefully, as I must do so as not to attract the American Bears than it would be a very very fine event
