Come on, people!! Is nobody actually planning on going?? 🙂

Carol Wells2 said:If anyone knows... is there any chance of buying tickets on-site, or is it not even worth traveling without one? I'm asking because my husband and I would go, but because of the kids, we won't know for sure until the very last minute. I just don't want us to get our hopes up if that isn't an option...
Thanks!

I suppose I don't know about the Rest in Peace show, but last year at Lollapalooza, people were buying from resellers at the very last second, though it was all pretty sketchy. When we actually arrived at the venue, things settled down; there weren't really any shady characters around or any real chance to snag tickets, at least as far as I can tell..

Well, we were looking at things and... I don't know, we hadn't really finalized everything yet back then..

Come on, people, tickets are still being snapped up... is nobody interested in joining us? 🙂

There is absolutely no way I could scrape together 500 or 600 bucks by then, and even if some miracle happened, I still wouldn't be able to make it because my finals will be happening right then.🙂
Fate is truly cruel...🙂 😢

500-600 dollars!?!
I can't imagine spending that much up there, haha. I shelled out 170 bucks for my ticket, and I'll probably bring maybe that much extra for spending money. As for food, we'll just act like cheapskates and pack our own from home.😁

Besides, you always find some cheerful group at festivals who end up buying rounds for everyone else, haha.👍

And Rage Against the Machine is one of the main reasons I'm going; I am definitely not missing them!!
By the way, I have no idea about Coachella...

Chris Ortiz said:Elvis Presley, Rage Against the Machine, and Muse... those are shows you just can't miss. Where are you guys coming from? Are you planning on staying for the whole thing? How much cash should I probably set aside? And how are you getting there?

Alice in Chains and Motörhead

Of course it's unmissable! That’s exactly why we’re going.🙂 🙂
We're coming from all over (Chicago, maybe some suburbs) 😛 and yeah, we're doing the full run. We aren't crazy enough to drive all that way just to leave halfway through, haha.
As for the money, the ticket and parking are already covered... that's about it. I suppose we should probably stock up on food for four days and drinks for ten 🙂 since everything at festivals is incredibly overpriced; it doesn't make sense to buy stuff there, though I guess once you're a few drinks in, you end up buying rounds for everyone anyway. 😁 But regarding food, we'll try to avoid buying it on-site. 🙂 For now, we're thinking of driving, though it's just an idea. It would be great if we could all pile into a van if enough people join up... that's what my crew did when we went to Lollapalooza last year, and it was pretty good. 🙂 But honestly, Rest in Peace definitely has a better lineup this year!
So come on, people, show a little enthusiasm. Who's actually coming?? 🙂
