    You're looking at dropping 2G's easy if you stay in a hotel/airfare/drinking/eating

    This place is so out of the way for everything its ridiculous

    Terrible

    are you going? i can't convince people to spend that kind of cash

    Nope...no way

    Location sucks

    I cant imagine trying to convince the casual fan :lol:

    I just would've hoped for at least a genuine camping festival if it wasn't going to be in a major city.

    yeah. i'm not a camping guy....but i thought you could at least park an rv on the gounds and stay there for the weekend. but you can't. gotta drive to the camp grounds after the show and come back the next day.

    Neither am I really, but I like to do the Philly Folk Fest in Shwenksville and that's a good time. I don't get why they couldn't do something like that - road trip, camp out on the same grounds as the show.

    I have a camper that I'm going to have to seriously consider going that route. Google says the drive out is about 13.5 hour drive, so I gotta weigh my options. I already looked into some of the campgrounds and a couple of them will have shuttles going back and forth to the venue.

    Neily, you may be right. It just sucks that this event out of all of them - the one event you'd think we'd all be pumped about and would make happen no matter what - is just poorly planned from about every logistics standpoint. Maybe I can wait for a Philly show, but it's just a shame that a music festival centered around a band that we're gay about isn't put together better.

    3 nights for a hotel is costing me my wife and another couple 590=295 a couple.
    Tickets=334
    Gas figure 3 tanks each way at 80 a pop=240 a couple
    Tolls im not sure about but say 200=100 a couple
    Food and drinks=350 id say especially since i cant drink alcohol :evil:
    misc shit posters,shirts=125ish
    All in all thats 1444!! Im sure there might be added expenses some where,but id say this trip wont cost more then 1600.
