Sell brownies at ten bucks a pop. Advertise them as "brownies". If anyone asks if there is pot in them, tell them you aren't interested in speaking to pigs and ask them to leave.

I think that the # of "hippies" going to banaroo is going to shrink greatly this year. The Police reunion being a part of it is going to drastically change the demographics. Personally, I'm going to see Clutch! and think of it as a bonus that the Police, Galactic, The Roots, Aesop Rock, and Wolfmother will be there.

You will not be the only person competing in this market, and so if you don't really want the money, it's probably not worth it.

You can travel much lighter if you just buy a bunch of glowsticks. Carry a few hundred around in a backpack and you're good to go. You can make 4-5x your investment, easily.

Excellent advice. Hippies love their glowsticks. You can flip them at big margins.

It'd be really fun to go around wearing a semi-costume selling baking powder (or whatever might smell/taste appropriately) in baggies for $20 or whatever. Could probably make a lot more money doing this.

I've had friends support themselves doing this kind of thing when they used to follow Phish, the Dead, etc. I don't know what it's like at Bonnaroo, but if it's hot and overcrowded, you can make a killing.

Bonnaroo is awesome man and yes you could make a killing doing this.

You should sell bullets, delivered out of a .38...for free.
