Bonnaroo Day 1

(from The Centeroo Wifi Tent)

We're here! And intoxicated already thanks to Magic Hat # 9 (one of the greatest microbrews in America) and Shiva IPA from Asheville Brewery . We got the pop-up "popped up" in record time despite Matt's bitching and moaning (nothing better than cheap slave labor). We are situated next to Smokey and Chris from Texas and Rob has a bad case of "RV envy"...they have huge Denali that is to die for. We have no clue about the bands tonight and our plans to see the comedy show starring Jeneane Garafolo were bashed due to long lines into the "Comedy Tent"...maybe tomorrow. Bonnaroo has exceeded our expectations so far. Very organized and very cool. Our biggest hope tonight is Vampire Weekend who play late tonight and Rob has "kind of heard of."

Oh, yeah, my co-worker got there last night with his brothers. Look for him... medium height, medium build, brown hair, named Ron... I'm sure you'll see him.; June 13, 2008 at 7:05 AM
