It's Bonnaroo week, one of the most magical times of year for Knox News journalist Ryan Wilusz, host of this week's episode of "The Scruffy Stuff." 

Ryan is joined by photographer Hanna Mattix, who is attending the Manchester, Tennessee, music festival for the first time this year. For Ryan, it will be his 10th trip to The Farm as a fan. 

Listen as Hannah asks first-timer questions to the Bonnaroo veteran, who discusses his tips and tricks for staying comfortable, unofficial Bonnaroo traditions and a whole lot more you should know before making the trek with your C'roo.
