Adding to T.Tom's list....my list includes:

- YOUR TBF TICKET!!! This is the most important thing!

- A tarp.

- Low-profile COMFORTABLE chair (sit-test chairs before you buy them for at least 15 minutes...sales people love that).

- A disposable rain poncho.

- Portable drink containers (Nalgenes, boda bags, flasks, Camelbaks, etc) for carrying water or something visually resembling water.

- Your favorite festivation beverages.  Make sure you give them custom names.  My group's favorites are: "Kentucky Honey Love" (aka "Hooch"...as re-named by CSI Mike), and "Crunchy Toad".

Sun Screen, Sun Glasses, Hat.  It is also nice to have a camera for those special never to be remembered moments that unless captured will never be remembered.  No matter how much you bring, you always forget something - but in true festivarian spirit the people next to you might have a spare whatever and you can borrow.

If you don't like something, change it.  Otherwise change the way you feel about it.

LED headlamps sure are convenient when packing up at midnight in the dark.

On the practical side:

A fully charged cordless screw gun, extra battery and a supply of screws can be really handy. A tough item if you flying though.

They also look at me funny when I strap the chair to my back, tuck a tarp under my armpit, and sprint through the store yelling "FESTIVALLLLLL".  But it is very important to check for equipment weight and balance before purchasing.  I've been arrested twice.
