pencil me in for now. im not sure how many of my friends are sincerely planning on going, most are waiting for a line-up to be posted. depending on that, i may have to start a whole new car of bodies. but as for now i'm cool with riding with you guys.

I'm looking for a ride and a place to stay while in GNV. Paying for gas and a room isn't a problem.

I'll give you a shout next month sometime when I actually start my planning.

To all other Chicago Festers who find rides or have cars...we should get a caravan going. It'd be awesome to roll into Tampa (if we go early) or Gainesville like three or ten cars deep all from the Midwest.

Anybody going to be coming down on I-75?

I'm in Richmond, KY and unsure of how I'm going to make it down there. Flying and driving alone is expensive, so I'm looking for alternatives!

Chicago festers, a few of the Aussies are thinking about possibly driving from Chicago after the Larry Arms gig, what's a good (read: cheap) "rental" company?

If all goes ahead, a Fest Convoy would be amazing!!

Dunno yet. Right now over on a different board, we're making plans to rent a big ass van or two and haul down in a convoy. Making a stop in Bourbon, TN to do a Distillery tour or two (Makers for sure.)

Soon as we know, you'll know.

The people working there are awesome but as you can probably tell it attracts some real dickheads! I've been very close to fisticuffs on more than one occasion outside that place!

"Vannegut," that is hilarious and awesome. And fuck yeah, we'll swing Shitbox down your way at the very least - if we can't get any other goons we'll at least have a two-van convoy.
