No matter how f***ed up you get, hydration is key. Do not fall out bc of dehydration, if your pee is brown chug water down. Hydrate yourself, no less than 32oz water and chug it, beer does not work.

water is really the key to a successful show, they let you bring in bottles as big as 1 gallon, might as well bring that in!

Thought I was gonna pass out at the end of the 2nd set DCU N2. My friend and I hopped onto the floor (sorry guys) and only had one water bottle for the whole show. We didn't have wristbands since we jumped over the rail so we couldn't leave to go fill it up.
I'll never make that mistake again. I can hardly even remember anything after weekapaug!

At merriweather in some year '09? It was 90's and people were a mess. I drank over a gallon of water completely devoid of reality except for Phish, water, and urinating. Kind of keeps you centered though, you can die real quick if you start f***ing around.

I drink two 16 oz bottles in the hour or so before every show, and then I take another one in with me. Gotta stay hydrated for sure. Don't be a noob, drink that water.

It's all fun and games til your buddy has heat stroke while you are all tripping! Just typing that is scary, if you stop sweating and feel nauseated; don't start chugging water bc you have heat stroke, first everyone chill; then find ems, heat kills. just drink f***ing water please.

One of the scariest moments ive had to deal with, luckily he was alright and i had some people around that saw my distress and my friend on the ground to help us out.

Agreed my doctor told me I need to be drinking double the amount of water I was to keep things moving inside me - I'm up too about 6-7 750ML bottles a day.Buy gallons before shows, share with parched friends

Yes, totally agree. Good hydration is essential for health and wellness. Every cell in the human body requires water. Hydration is central to the most basic physiological functions such as regulating blood pressure and body temperature, hydration and digestion. hydration

Reminder to drink water in the altitude, less available oxygen means you need to drink more water and less alcohol!

@spencur6 said: Deer creek N1 most water needing show ever!Definitely. Of my crew of four friends, only I was allowed to bring a water bottle in so we were all taking turns jetting off the lawn down to the water fountain. I spent the whole day just sitting around drinking water by the gallon and eating mostly fruit, yet I only had to pee once and it was dark yellow, nearly brown. That shit freaked me out big time. BY the time of Bug I was running on pure mental willpower to survive and make it out to shakedown for the "two for f***in one" water bottle guy/

As it was, my fears were unfounded; he drank some water and we laughed the night away watching Shark Week.It's all fun and games til your buddy has heat stroke while you are all tripping!This, i was on 5-7 hits of some fire at wakarusa last year and my buddy dropped out b/c of the heat.

The colour of urine is one of the best ways to recognize dehydration level. Therefore, it is important to keep an eye on the colour of urine. Straw coloured urine indicates a good fluid intake; the darker it is, the more you may need to drink. This chart will help you to see how urine colour might vary with hydration status. dehydration level

Anyone else have like a set beer to water ratio? At Alpine this year I was doing a gatorade for every three beers I believe, the heat that weekend just wouldnt allow me to get drunk... This isnt a bad thing, I felt great all weekend just a little woozy towards the end of the second set first night because we were in the pit

Iv'e brough my camalback in a few times, man is that a life saver, everytime I would turn around there would be someone facing out asking me for some H20, lots of thankful people. If I don't have it though, the first thing I go and buy is 2 $10 bottles of water, hate to do it, but it's needed
