tittus Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Were you there last year? Also we need to get another meet up planned this year! Last year La Tienda was so lonely with only my IRL friends and not my internet ones I hit Pre Fest in Tampa and met up with German on Sunday for TLA. I'll definitely be there for all of it this year for sure. Meetup at The Jones? That place is awesome, right behind High Dive. Killer breakfast.

jacktownjim Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I live for Fest. Might just Pre-Fest this year as well. Would love to meet some of you folk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSeth Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 There's a good chance I can make it this year. My sister lives in Jacksonville, so would it be fairly easy to commute between there and Fest? Or should I just find somewhere in or close to Gainesville? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 What is the hotel situation in and around Gainesville for Fest? I will be coming down alone, is staying outside of Gainesville and driving in doable without too too much hassle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I would suggest the Red Roof Inn that is by I-75...it is about a 10-15 minute drive to the downtown area where the shows are, and it isn't too hard on the wallet. There are places within walking distance, but they tend to cost more, and are booked up fairly quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylekrische Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Best weekend every year. You don't even really have to be 21 to fully enjoy it. My first Fest was Fest 7 when I was 18 and it is still probably my favourite FEST I've been. Also so happy it's back to 3 days, four was too much especially since I do the drive every year (about 24ish hours) so it ends up being almost a full week for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Spraynard is a band again and are apparently playing fest according to their facebook. How many more Spraynard shirts do you think we'll see people wearing this year? The last two years we made a drinking game because of the pure volume of those things floating around.
