OMG Hippie!! I listed the front yard and the roof as fest-sitting training, but you’ve taken it to another level! If chosen correctly, a store does a much better job of providing a “festival” type atmosphere as far as people walking by, etc.
You are going to be in great shape for TBF, my friend! Great shape!
OK, so let’s say that I am not the most expierenced camper. My camping is usually 2 nights max. I have read this over and have a few preguntas? I know I will underpack and forget something! If I run out of food at my camp, is there a grocer in town? Are there ice machines in the camping area? Illium camping? Is there a general store where I can overpay for something I forgot to pack? What types of grills are allowed? Gas only?
Any help is greatly appreciated. I just know as the excitment of packing and leaving grows closer, I am going to forget numerous items. Help a rookie out would ya?
There’s a couple grocery stores in town and you can get ice there, as well as at the Shell station just outside town or the station by Society turn. I don’t know if they’ll have ice available at Ilium or not. Generally speaking, gas grills are fine. I know that wood fires/grills aren’t allowed in town, but I think charcoal is acceptable as long as you’re careful with the ashes. We don’t want any hot ashes being put where they don’t belong.
There’s also a hardware store for any other necessities you may have forgotten. :cheers
:wave ok…Here’s a VERY important one for the women! I’m not sure if anybody has mentioned this yet. Bring Aunt Flow gear! High altitude can mysteriously bring her visit so don’t forget to pack yer gear! :eek
You really need to do something about that techno soundtrack tha seems to be haunting you this past few days. Can you just slip something into their drinks?
Like maybe some good homebrew? It will bring em around in no time. :thumbsup
:argh repeat :argh repeat!
I have made my managerial decision (I have to do these things now) to eliminate the club/trance crap on days that i work, :bash so this means that i have to sort of :quote fire or dismiss :quote the present DJ and replace his Thur.-Fri spot with :rock Metal Thurs. & Punk Friday :rock …that should solve the problem!
Counting down the days!!! It’s over 100 here somewhere around 105 today :devil
Come now people! There is one rule of thumb that we can all go by: All services are available in T-ride, can’t think of a single thing you can’t get that would help you get by!
You can always (and I mean always ) throw money at a problem until the problem goes away!
See my post about the TBF experience and you will see how much is available to you!
Here’s the start of my 2008 pack list… :thumbsup
I finally found this on my old hard drive and have begun to update it. You can use this as a :quote starting point. :quote
