[Dakotalola]

Shout for joy if you get the chance

fingers crossed for unknown caller to make a return in Vegas!
Sorry. Had to get that out

 

[Javier]

1 week from right NOW I'll be headed from The Strip towards the u2 concert!!!

 

[witsa]

one week, omg, finally!!!

I'm still abit stressed, will relax once I have the ticket in my hand (stupid UNLV tickets policies. they really are clueless all the way on this concert!).

just started packing - love crossing things off my list once it is in the suitcase.

 

[FitzChivalry]

1 week from exactly right now, I'll be sitting in line hungover, slumped over, drooling and taking a nap on either Carlos or Nic's shoulder.

Note to self: Stay away from Ethan in one week.

Just wanted to share my excitement that one week from RIGHT NOW I will be landing at the Vegas airport. Yes, work obligations mean I can't leave SD until 1:30 pm., but I will be there in time for the show, and that's all that matters, right?

Speaking of which - anyone have experience with Sam Boyd stadium with parking, traffic jams, etc - what time are you all planning on leaving your hotel if you have seats and are driving - I'm thinking 5:30 or so, but I guess that totally depends on the traffic flow around the stadium? What do you all think?

ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!

 

[martha]

I'm staying an hour away, but with little traffic for the first 45 minutes or so, and I was thinking about leaving around 4 PM.

Oh! I'm gonna come find YOU, Martha!

So Martha, you are planning to be at the stadium by 5 pm or so? That's a good idea, not sure if I can make it there by then, since my plane arrives at 3pm, gotta check into hotel on the strip, pretty myself up, etc etc. I'm wondering how packed the stadium gets with traffic, like is it one of those incredibly stupid designed stadium with only one entrance/exit? Does anyone know?

Also, does anyone know time from strip to stadium? I'm remembering that I read its about 15-20 minutes, but does anyone know for sure? At least there are only 30k or so people attending vs the 96k at the Rose Bowl on Sunday!!

Being hungover requires you to stop drinking! I'll be in full effect from 9 Fine all the way til concert!

 

[DRay9911]

i've read that helps when people are hungover and drained from partying

[FitzChivalry]

1 before you go out drinking, 1 before you go to sleep w/ 2 Ibuprofen chasers and you're good to go!

 

[kafrun]

I think Because Of The Times is their best so far. I'm not too big a fan of the new album; it's ok, but by no means great. I guess I just like Aha Shake Heartbreak and Because Of The Times the best; those are my favorite of theirs.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOW! She's such a charmer!

 

[trojanchick99]

Honestly, the way this NLCS is going, I won't survive till next week. Dodgers are killing me with the damn close games.

But yea, lots of water and Advil is my hangover cure along with copious amounts of menudo.

 

[mtnfox]

But they don't work (trust me).

 

[Outsider]

Two advil and a glass of water BEFORE passing out..uh,going to bed. Works like a charm

and this lol

 

[Javier]

uh bed? hotel room = oversized locker and changing room

 

[FitzChivalry]

. . . along with copious amounts of menudo.

Tripas.

Now, if you had said Pozole, well . . . that's a different story all together! Pozole.

Um no official training but I had to give my cat fluids every other day for 8 months last year. ( he's doing fine now
but I'd have to grab some extra skin on the scruff of your neck to insert the needle
ha! I still have an unopened bag of 1000 ccs of fluid, and unused needles. Should I pack it up? GA line refreshments

 

[Outsider]

Since I didn't sign up for a lanyard does that make me an official party crasher??

 

[Javier]

best hungover cure = soak in the hotel pool and drink three Heinekens at 9AM

 

[FitzChivalry]

By 9:00 a.m. my ass plans to be sitting on cold concrete, waiting in the GA line.

So true. I hate when I forget that.

We had to do that for our family cat. For 3 years. CRF?
