    we have to make the loooong drive home to miami after the show...


    We are staying overnight in Tampa, we dont know if we are staying at a hotel or sleeping over at my best friend's house... the drive back home is way to long to do after the show so late, we tried that one last time at the Gorge, we ended up having to stop half way and take a nap or we would've crashed, we should have stayed with you guys at the camp grounds till the next morning .... so you going to Tampa then?

    the plan may be for the four of us to go WPB,
    drive home the 2 or so hours...

    and possibly the next morning drive the 4 hours to Tampa - just me and my 18 yr old son and stay the night.

    that is subject to change though... just the planning stage :)

    Urs... what are you planning to do?? are you driving home after wpb??

    I don't know yet... I have to talk to my mom who's babysitting the boys for us, I'm thinking we will go to West Palm Beach and then drive to my best friends' house and crash there (she is in Port Saint Lucie) and then keep in going the next morning for the Tampa show, with Tampa we are either staying at a hotel or at my other best friend's house...

    Not set in stone yet though, I'm leaving to Seattle on the first and my mom is babysitting so I think I'll talk to her about the babysitting on June after we come back :D

    I did a google maps of West Palm Beach to Tampa, and I want to jump through my freekin computer screen. I can't wait!!!

    I looked into flights, and I think NorthWestern Airlines is the ticket, cheap enough and only a short stop in Minneapolis.

    Stone's Glasses will be in the house(s). We made a similar trip during the Riot Act tour. There was a day between the shows though back then. I think the shows were Friday and Sunday. This time around, Wed and Thurs, come home Friday and have the weekend to digest it all! This is going to be frickin' badass.

    I think I'm in. These shows seem to fit my schedule best. However, it doesn't fit hubby's so I'll probably be solo.

    Right now looking at flying into Tampa, renting a car, driving to WPB for the show. Then driving back to Tampa for the show, then flying out of Tampa the next day.

    Any suggestions from you Florida residents?

    Have you checked out flights into the other airports? Orlando or Melbourne maybe even one in West Palm area? Then fly out of Tampa... would save some driving, gas etc.

    I moved to S.Florida in Jan. of '05 from Minneapolis and have been waiting and waiting and getting pissed off, and waiting, and waiting, and getting more pissed off, and waiting, and waiting for this day to finally come. I missed out on about twelve shows that i would have gone to had I not moved from Minneapolis. The amphitheater in West Palm is 10 minutes from my house and my neighbors own a condo in Tampa, so we're going to both shows and we might just drive up the coast for additional concert going enjoyment.

    I'm hoping to get tickets to WPB. I've already booked a 1 week vacation in Miami that week to catch Mudhoney, so this show fits in well. The only problem is that I'll only need I ticket, so I'll either have one to get rid of (24XXXX) or will need to get a single off another person...

    THAT is true... had more fun hanging out in the parking lot at WPB (& Kissimmee) than any bar. However, it will be June and a bit warm...but not too bad.

    Assuming I can get tickets on Monday, I plan on flying out day of show and back early next morning to the WPB show.
    There's Pearl Jam, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson......and then everybody else.

    btw, did was Cruzan Ampitheater once named Sound Advice?
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green
