who from Richmond is going to the Fest? my friend and i plan on attending, but dont have enough money for plane tickets and neither of us have reliable enough cars to make it there and back. so if the two of us could bum rides to and from the Fest we'll chip in for gas money and whatever else.

and to Gainesvilleians, any chance two dudes from Richmond could get a place to stay for the weekend?

we're 18, bearded, and know how to party

i'd say you could hop in with us, but it's mostly likely already gonna be the 5 band members, plus 2 "road crew", and all our equip and merch. yeah, that just spells comfort there.

i imagine there'll be a good amount of people coming from the RVA though, you shouldn't have a problem.

thanks anyway dude. what band are you in?

a band called landmines. we're not very good, but we know how to drink pretty ok

from what it seemed like last year half the population of Richmond comes down for the Fest so i'm sure you'll find a ride from someone

I am coming from the Northern VA area and would be willing to give you dudes a ride. I am about 90% sure that I am going to The Fest. Let me know if you want to ride or not.

You guys killed it at that Ann Beretta show a while back

tony is this you?

hey. im getting my AWESOME tattoo soon. it will be on my visit to RVA for EST FRIENDS DAY!! <3 horray.

i cant wait to see all the RVA people! im moving there in december... looking for roomies still.

oh, i had a feeling you were gonna say that. i used to work with your current drummer. i saw you guys play with smoke or fire and fake problems a couple of months ago.

yup, it's tony. glad i'll be seeing you at best friends day

thanks man, hopefully we'll be seeing you at the Fest then

Why not rent a car??

I'm NY and thats what a bunch of us did last year. It didn't cost us that much and I'm sure driving from Richmond it'll be easier and quicker...

you gotta be 21 to rent cars i believe

actually i'm almost positive you have to be 25 to rent a car

It varies from state to state . . . you have to be 25 to rent a 15-passenger van in Illinois, but you can rent sedans at 21. Also, the various rental companies have different rules.
