Ha. That’s funny stuff. I’ve been to Telluride approximately 478 times but have never taken anything out of the freebox. Apparently I’m missing out.
yep Just remember the Freebox Fashion show is after rumballs
:cheers

I think that’s a good idea Courtness…
Let’s walk the “pickin” route:
We start at Camp Billy (Arizona Bowl on your map Courtney), where I recall doing a little gig on the dance floor that they constructed;
There’s Fishbone, of course, with excellent music and wonderful people! My monkey-self has drifted off to sleep a time or two in Fishbone, while snuggled into a nice comfy couch, listening to very talented people.
Occasionally there will be music at Wander In (remember LAST YEAR GUYS!! WOO-HOO!!) and rumor has it that there will be attempts to attract the same type of activity to Flamingo via setup this year. Of course that was largely drunken conversation last year, so who knows…
Once in the reserve, on the right (across from Camp Totally Lit) is the “Professor and his group” (who are those people anyway? I heard it is a music professor and a select group of his students… does anyone know if there’s any truth to this?) And it also seems like they have been in a slightly different location the last couple of years.
And then on to the Tiki Bar where there is lots of excitement and good music almost daily (wasn’t there?)
Swing to the left and you run smack dab into the Crossroads gang with their carpeting and couches.
Heading towards Town Hall there is a camp that has very nice jams on the left… is this the Front Porch gang?
On the right is the Mash Tent that, from my point of view, seems to be one of the last jams standing in the wee hours.
There have been, in the past, nice jams at Town Hall (Tom - whatever happened to Mish and his wife?), so we always swing by there when stumbling about in the middle of the night looking for ways to warm ourselves.
Those are most of the “surefire” jams that I can think of…
I’m sorry, Monkeygirl, but did you say “couch”??? People actually haul in a real couch to their camping spot? I guess my mental image of camping is a bit different than some. I wonder if I could get my couch into the back of my Trooper. Hmmm…
I can tell Hooch, that you are going to spend Sunday walking around trying to keep from tripping over your jaw. These camps, while not at the level they reach at Winfield (so I’m told by LuAnna), are indeed something to behold. You are in for a treat brah…

Yes, it is hard to shift out of a backpacker’s mentality for sure. I guess there is no point in packing light. On the good side I suppose that means I can bring all my power tools and construct “Utarpia-Dome”. Motto: “Two men enter. One man leaves…to get more rumballs”. GOD, I hope Tina Turner shows up this year. Mel Gibson…not so much.

Well, since it’s been brought up…
Let’s all agree that, in case the big bomb ever drops, all of us festivarian survivors should make our way back to Town Park to re-form civilization there.
Holy couches, Batman! Count me in! :flower

I’ve already begun digging out my cave… why do you guys think you never see me sitting on a tarp? I have a secret little hiding place with an awesome view and even better acoustics!

I already have a couple of the Old Mines scoped out
:festival

I can’t remember any TBF in the past 10 years when we didn’t have a couch or two set up in the Fishbone Tarp Majal. As Rhonny and countless others have learned, the couches are a great spot to pass out (“drift off to sleep”) during the late nights jams.

I’m toe-tally in. :thumbsup
Speaking of couches, someone had an inflatable one up at my camp a couple years ago.
where the heck do you find those smileys!???
Its a secret …pssst he has no life…
I pull them out of my nethers…
OMG your Killing me Tom !
