If I was able to find someone to go with, now that I'm over 18, I'd totally go. Financially, it's no problem, but going to Fest solo would be pretty depressing, I think.

dude, going solo to this fest is the perfect way to go.. because you are forced to meet and hang out with people. i went by myself, and i met a ton of great people. and i saw some dude's face posted up all over the hotel and university avenue... :P

I'm thinking of going...don't know how much it is to fly from CA. If it isn't too ridiculous, I'm there.

If you get enough people you only end up paying about $400-$500 per person off one of those William Shatner/talking gnome sites. Between 6 of us we're paying a little over $400 per person for a round trip flight out of LAX and two rooms at the Paramount from Thursday (10/29) to Monday (11/1).

Mondo is thinking about going with us so if you can't find people to go with we have an empty spot. We want to go as a group of 8 just to cut down on the pricing. Those sites, however, only let 4 people per room. There would be females also so you wouldn't have to worry about it being a full blown sausage party.

You can easily find round trip flights for $250 or less from LAX to Tampa. Fly into Tampa on Thursday for the pre-Fest show and then hitch a ride to Gainesville the next day. Just do a little shopping and you'll find really good deals on flights.

haha, alright awesome. I will keep you updated. Are a lot or any of the venues 21+? I don't want to go if so, since I'll be a few weeks shy of 21.

I'm fairly sure most if not all of the venues are 18+, with a select few being all ages.

It's Fest... How could there not be a decent lineup?

Seriously. Here's the lineup.

Last year's lineup - bands that broke up - minus reunited headliners + badass new bands + even more badass reunited headliners than last year = This year's lineup.

Actually, I heard they are trying to switch it up a little this year, and a lot of bands are gonna take a year off.
