Tardcore Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 shit is getting out of hand. that's a lot of walking between stages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smailtronic Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 shit is getting out of hand. that's a lot of walking between stages. Have to see how it plays out, but using the Main Entrance seems silly. It looks like you'll have to walk all the way up to North to get around to most of the stages.

dreamover Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 definitely would not want to use the "main entrance" if it ends up like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smailtronic Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 On twitter, they told me that Sacramento will be available for foot traffic. That makes it a little easier to get around, but the entrance up by Roeser's Bakery still seems like the better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyShackelford Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Last year in Chicago; there was a lot of space in between stages, like, 5-10 minutes walks. If it's bigger than that this year that's going to kind of suck. I'm not going though so I guess it doesn't matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinji Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Nothing conflicts for me, but that Cure and Weezer makes me sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smailtronic Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Nothing conflicts for me, but that Cure and Weezer makes me sad. Only one conflict for me on Saturday, which is way better than I was expecting. Also excited at being able to get out at a reasonable time, go home and charge my phone, and then hit the after shows.

laralaurent Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I realize a majority of everyone here is going to Chicago. Only conflict I have in Denver is on Sunday. The national v wutang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I'm probably the only one bummed about descendents vs flaming lips. I think I'll start at flips and if they don't have their crazy stage setup I'll head over to descendents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeJoe Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Cousin just informed me he got us band passes for this, Toronto date(from his friend who is friends with the keyboardist of the cure) So not only am I super pumped to go. Also good chance to be hanging out with the cure. Weekend just got much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 You > cousin > cousins friend > cousins friends friend > keyboardist of the cure. I've played this game enough times to know how this one ends. I suggest buying a ticket for when this falls through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeJoe Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Na, it wont fall through, My cousin is good friends with some guy on one of those CSI shows, and he is friends with the cures Keyboard player, so its Me>cousin>Cousin's friend>keyboardist of the cure. I trust my cousin enough, he felt pretty guilty even asking his friend. But if it falls through i wasnt planning on going anyway so no big deal!

pushbacktosquare Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Bummed that about 15 minutes of IATA set will interfere with New Found Glory. Other than that, I should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openupyourskull Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Finally made it to Toronto last night after wrestling with planes, subways and buses (which are surprisingly clean compared to Boston) all afternoon. I'll be hanging out at the Riot Stage for the most part today since I'm basically here for The Cure, then back home tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smailtronic Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 dashboard vs GUK is a hilarious conflict. what day are you talking about leaving early? not saturday, i hope. I'm leaving after the Descendents on Saturday, so early, but not crazy early. Friday, I'll probably take off after Red City Radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
