Inevitably at a free spirited music event the size of Bonnaroo and despite Bonnaroo’s strict no substance policy, one will encounter someone taking, selling or otherwise handling drugs. For some “it’s a bit like getting continuous medical education”, others a detestable side effect of the festival atmosphere and to still others their “raison d’être”. To investigate I asked a drug dealer that approached to reveal the entire contents of their knapsack
3 Ounces of Marijuana
60 doses of XTC
2 Ounces of Opium
40 doses of Acid
1 Half Ounce of Magic Mushrooms
And “various other pills….”
There was also 1 bottle of water.
