But I hear that regular camping could involve semi- naked primates bellowing "yarrrggghh" at 3 am and puddles in my tent that didn't come from precipitation. Would I have to get a shot? Best noob. Don't get cocky about it, the competition routinely involves dipshits from Facebook who only type text lingo. Hell, even nick won best noob, LOL. What's a noob?

I didn't really get them in the 70's, and I am trying to get it now, but I must have a missing gene in my music DNA.

So a bit of a story. I was raised in a pretty strict southern family with a big extended church going family. I had a great-uncle and great-aunt who my mom was really close to, and I loved them too. Over the last week or so (since I bought my tickets), music has been on mind practically every waking moment, thinking a lot about old music I like. I remembered one of my favorite music moments, and it made me smile. after I finished college, I got a job where my great aunt and uncle lived, and they let me stay with them for a few weeks while I got started. One night, uncle dusty noticed me checking out his old stereo cabinet and rack of lp's. We started talking about music, and he picked an album out of his collection to play for me. He and I proceeded to dance like fools, me at 25 and him at 70ish. Anyway, I found this on the new fangled inter nets and thought it might make you smile too. I dare you to watch and not at least get a toe tapping. I hope the link works. www.youtube.com/watch?v=teJfuKdzbOo&feature=youtube_gdatathe origin of dub step maybe?

Let's see. Steak. Grill for steak. Charcoal for grill. Taco chips. Cheese. Cheese grater. Picante sauce. Charcoal lighter. Knife to cut steak into nacho size pieces. Special secret nacho seasoning. Guacamole. Plate for nachos.
Did I miss anything?
actually sounds good, so definitely maybe there will be steak nachos, although pulled pork is a much better meat choice.

So, let me get this straight. If I do the regular camping, there will be primates bellowing "I'm in a dress" from 8 pm to 8 am, an unknown couch will appear in my tent, and I won't need a shot, except maybe afterwards. On oh yeah, if I do stay in fancy pants camping, no one there will be able to turn my crank.
This leads to several more questions. One, I think 12 hour bellowing only occurs on spring and fall equinox. Is there some astronomical anomaly that causes the sun to pause over the Gorge? And does this same anomaly account for the couch? And about that shot - wouldn't it be better to get it before camping, or do I have to wait and see exactly what strain I've been exposed to? Finally, are the campers in gold and premier truly unable to turn my crank, or is it simply a matter of crank snobbery?

Best one yet.
old fashioned hand cranked ice cream freezer.
if I bring a freezer, anyone want to volunteer to turn the crank. I have a great vanilla recipe.

These camping passes have been returned to Live Nation. Contact them if interested. I was refunded my money to the penny, including the services fees. I know this may be grounds to be drawn and quartered. All I ask for is it be someplace classy, like a nudity bar. Thank you. That is all.

Not sure if you noticed or not Mutt, but she specifically said that they started making them again in the fall. Although I'm sure someone would love to trade you some advil or something! Well crap! There go my plans to pay for sasquatch with expired Rolaids.

They don't make Rolaids anymore, Gibbons. This still bums me out. Tums just don't do the job. I found a super old stash of Rolaids at work and am hoarding them, potential whatever the hell was killing people in them be damned! MID POST EDIT! I just went to look up what was killing people (SPOILER IT WAS FOREIGN PARTICLES AND NOBODY DIED PHEWPH)and found that "Chattem returned the product to the market in the fall of 2013." Aw yiss. I have a supersize Rolaids jar about 3/4 full. I'll share.

Hey - one new sig line, the correct spelling of hemorrhoid. and a few days of entertainment are not completely useless! Even though I might have ruffled some feathers, my spirit is clean - I even feel like have passed some kind of initiation to be called a dick with no respect. Am I in the club now?
PS - To keep this post relevant: Solar shower, blow up camp couch, virtual camp fire (just a few of things I've found lately looking for cool stuff to camp with)

There IS a rule which concerns noobs creating new threads, and that rule is don't create new threads for the sake of discussing information that has been discussed at incredible length in at least half a dozen other threads. Your notion of what is 'relevant' is flawed. I know this might get me in in deep jeff with higher powers, but my understanding of what is relevant is that the information in the various thread posts will have some relationship to the title of the thread. If there is some other interpretation of relevancy, then please enlighten me. I could do an in-depth anal-ysis of how many posts in the sticky thread on camping stuff actually refer to camping stuff, but I would rather have another colonoscopy than do that. With that being said, I will add to the list of things not to forget: Toilet paper Bed pan Hemmeroid hemorrhoid creme

I would highly suggest checking the camping thread that already exists. There is a ton of information in it. There is also a food thread discussing Sasquatch (quatchfest??) food. I started going through the sticky thread at the top of the page, all 64 pages, and maybe one out of every four posts had relevant information. I am also going through the food thread to get some ideas. I thought maybe a new thread with an emphasis on things not normally on anyone's list of things not to forget..... tickets, sunscreen, water, drugs.... duh, I never would have thought of those, but whatever. Is there a rule against new threads being posted by noobs? Also, maybe some of these old stickies need to be purged and new ones started. Most of the ones that I have read through are jeff this and jeff that - not much really useful information. Don't get me wrong, some of the posts are humorous and even clever, but I am mostly interested in making my first time visit to the Gorge and Sasquatch maximally enjoyable. Please don't jeff me up or anything, as I don't want my jeff to get jeffed up without being properly jeffified. Jeffily yours, Mutt PS - my mom and dad both prefer Hank Williams. Senior by the way.... and yes, they both can cut a rug at 70ish. No head banging anymore though. PPS - add to the list: toothbrush and toothpaste, extra sunglasses, soap

This will be my 1st Sasquatch, but not my 1st musicfest. This thread is to list the things you don't want to forget that aren't necessarily on your normal camping out list. My recent festival experience does not include camping, so I would appreciate getting some good ideas to make my Sasquatch experience better. In the spirit of sharing my own ideas, here is my list of things you shouldn't forget.
1. Bandanas (plural) for headband, camp rag, flag, etc. 2. Binoculars. I finally remembered last fest and it was great. 3. Baby wipes. It just feels good to clean up, feet especially. 4. Bics with back up matches. 5. Band aids
