I’m suddenly hit with this massive urge to catch a show.
Ideally, I’d drive my own car, but I don't have anyone to go with, and driving solo just isn't worth the gas money.
If anyone happens to be interested in carpooling and splitting the costs, feel free to reach out on my cell: 555-012-3456 (Boris)

Also, does anyone know what the deal is with camping? Can you rent tents there, or should I pick some up somewhere locally?
Thanks, and hopefully I'll see you there.
Well, damn, why are you reaching out now? We were literally looking for a fourth person to fill a car just two weeks ago, and now it's too late—we already went ahead and booked through an agency... As for the tents, I'm not sure if they rent them out, but you could always borrow one from someone or just buy one; besides, you already have a tent from $67...
How exactly are you planning on getting there? We finally decided to just take a bus...
I can't speak for them, but when I reached out to Greyhound, they had organized transportation available, even though their website originally listed the trip at 4.6 hours before they corrected it once I actually called them... so it’s possible these guys didn't just update their site, right? We've got our tickets sorted now, so we just need to make a call on how we're getting there too.
So, I just picked up my tickets for the show. We’re driving down, and I've got two extra seats open in the car if anyone actually wants to tag along...🙂
Look, we’re all feeling the squeeze of this recession, and I’m certainly not exactly rolling in cash myself, but let's be real—this year's lineup is absolutely insane and you just can't afford to miss it....😁
Oh, come on, 🙂 what's even the issue here?
Tickets are sitting at about $180 right now, and honestly, we haven't even touched on travel plans yet. We need to see how many people are actually pulling the trigger before we can coordinate anything, right? As for food and drinks, we're obviously just going to pack our own stuff from home...
We were front row at the Nickelback show in Munich and ended up with two extra tickets on our hands, but they told us that ticket resales are strictly monitored over there... so now I'm stuck wondering if we should just take the risk and buy a ticket online right now, or wait until it's closer to the date and see what turns up on the local classified ads?
And you can bet your life those ticket prices are just going to keep climbing higher...
Honestly, festivals like Coachella are just turning into giant commercial machines lately, basically playing whatever garbage is currently topping the MTV charts. Looking at those headliners who are essentially destined for a Rest in Peace status, maybe someone like Mick Jagger could pull a set there, but who actually knows anymore?
Look, two of us are coming from Chicago and a friend is driving up from San Diego. Tickets are about $185, which honestly isn't bad considering the lineup and the fact that it’s a four-day festival now instead of three—plus, that covers the camping too. Isn't that a steal for these kinds of headliners?
We're currently rounding up a group to head out together, so we might just rent a large van or something depending on how many people actually commit...
If anyone has any questions, feel free to shoot me a DM...
Anyone else planning on heading out?
http://www.rock-im-park.com/...there's three of us going so far, so I figured I'd start this thread for anyone else interested in tagging along... 😁
