I recommend that anyone who can afford it spend some time on other islands ... you really haven't seen Hawaii if you spend a week on Oahu. Kauai is amazingly beautiful, Maui is very diverse with great beaches and windsurfing, and the Big Island has the active volcano.
Kauai has several zipline tours that are a lot of fun. There's a 38 mile downhill bike tour on Maui, and Molokini Crater off Maui's coastline is a great place to snorkel. It is sort of like Hanauma Bay only it is a small island and you have to take a boat to get there.
I live on Maui and would be happy to answer any questions. Sort of busy today but I'll monitor this thread as best I can.

Kelly, at arena shows I quit drinking water at about 3:30...but I found at stadium shows i could *easily* leave the rail and get my spot back. lots of people were always coming and going and people were very laid back about it. i'd err on the side of drinking water, and alternate it with stuff that replenishes electrolytes, like Pedialyte or Gatorade
ruffian said:ok, and i am going to have a debbie downer moment and confess that i have a book called Death in Yellowstone, which is all about how various people have died in Yellowstone National Park.
It's actually quite riveting.
It seems that boiling springs and suicides are quite common.

Dont forget Ecoli
Kelly: you can usually leave and go to the bathroom and get back to your spot until about 1/2 hour before the opening band comes on
But if you are concerened about hydration and peeing then you likely should just show up around noon and hang out toward the back of the inner area, if you plan on camping out all night and being on the front rail(with the other nuts) you should plan on being very dehydrated and tired during the show

Thank you
I have a bladder the size of a pea .
But I guess I'd rather risk losing my spot than passing out.
Perhaps we need the buddy system

That actually sounds interesting to me too .
I read a story once about a dog that jumped into one of the boiling hot springs . . . and then the owner jumped in trying to rescue the dog. Needless to say, it did not have a happy ending .

Same here... however, the problem is not necessarily getting your spot back, but rather being able to cut through the people further back that will not necessairly believe your "my friends are up front" story...
