controlthebleeding Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Southwest is what I always use. It's super duper cheap. same here...i don't think i've ever paid over $250 for a round trip ticket till now... but if any roundtrip fare is under $300 i consider a good deal.

dave4444 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Flights in the US are so much cheaper than within Canada. To fly anywhere in Canada generally costs about 500-600 return (at least any flight over 1.5 hours) Yeah it would be cheaper for me to fly to orlando from winnipeg than when i flew from winnipeg to montreal for warped tour i am considering going to fest for the first time and am looking for some tips: 1. how can you get from orlando to gainesville without renting a car? 2. if i am going by myself what are the chances i get molested? (gimme a yes lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(gimme a yes lol) There are several folks here from Otown that would help you once you know when you get here. its about 2hrs to gville. stay away from the rest area on the highway, you may find yourself more than molested.

mrc Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Since US 301 is a popular short cut between Northeastern Florida and the Gulf Coast region, a number of towns along the road have been notorious speed traps. Many have accused the police in Waldo, Starke, Lawtey, and others of giving tickets simply to raise money. The American Automobile Association has strongly advised motorists to avoid this stretch of the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 could this be the fest lineup?http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/philcore/fest7.jpg Doesn't look very official. I'd bet at least 90% of the bands on there are a lock for the Fest, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Also, last year it was 10 or 11 stages, now they're down to 8? I know I heard one of the venues from last year won't be used again but that they already replaced it with another place that was closer.
