    Excellent! My buddy and I have a room at the Hyatt which shouldn't be far from you guys.

    I spoke to the "shuttle folk" via email today. They said small coolers are allowed for the trip to Alpine.

    I'm staying at the Marriott Courtyard Milwaukee Downtown @ 300 West Michigan Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 53203. Right around the corner from where the shuttle picks up if you believe the info on PJ20.com or a bit further away if you believe the info in the Goods section. Either way, got Shuttle tix for both days and staying in Milwaukee. ;)

    I'm not getting in until Fri evening. Not a huge fan of Miller, but considering I'm in the Motherland...one would think it's slightly fresher on tap. Locals...thoughts?

    Getting in Friday, staying at the Aloft Downtown, which looks swanky. Got our shuttle tickets today.

    Holy crap I can't believe I'll be there!!!

    My Buddy and I are driving in from Atlanta on Friday...looking for good times and great people. We're Staying at the Hilton City Center which is about 4 blocks from each of the shuttle addresses (which we are riding both days). Definitely need to meet up. Already located a couple of close bars, including a nice looking irish pub within walking distance. Can't Wait!
    If you're the only one, will I never be enough? Hail, hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love!!!

    Me too!! Can't decide where to stay though, there are two different shuttle locations. I will end up in whichever hotel will be closest to the shuttle that is reasonably priced, I emailed the email address on the ticket page to find out, will post here when I hear back.

    Also, just noticed Best Western is quite affordable ($89 + tax for a queen room, regular rate). Maybe that's the way to go but haven't seen anyone else booking it yet :mrgreen:

    Me and a friend will be driving to Alpine from Toledo, OH. We're thinking of staying in the Milwaukee area but have no plans yet. I have to do some looking and research, so any help would greatly be appreciated. It would definatly be a lot of fun staying at the same place as a bunch of other members.

    I'm also debating the shuttle. I really don't like depending on "other" transportation and like to have the ability of going & leaving when I want. That's just me though.

    i'm in milwaukee, staying at the Best Western, pretty good deal, $89/night. we'll see how the wife feels about it. also taking the shuttle, good to hear we can bring coolers on - Patron shots seems about right!

    can't wait!
  • 6 of us in Milwaukee or Lake Geneva... have both towns booked. Was not looking to go to Alpine all day for 2 days... If anyone has any thoughts about getting a private shuttle a bit later, pm me. Going to wait until I see the schedule times of the bands. I will probably see the strokes one of the days.

    Beyond that... I am good for a solid couple hours of tailgating and seeing PJ.
