You are correct, altough the law isn't in effect yet, it will be well before labor dave.

As far as food goes, we always opt to bring all our own because it just doesn't seem worth it to buy at the venue all weekend and I have never had a problem bringing my own food into the venue. I brought a whole spread into the Caravan last year, chicken ceasar salad, vodka watermelon, chips, trailmix, tacos! Granted it's just a couple of hours in the car to get there and we rent an RV, so it is a lot easier to pack food supplies. I don't think I can go back to a weekend of pb&j and powerbars

Well I'm 23, so I still live off of alcohol and sunlight, and dmb, obviously. I've got a couple months to mull things over and plan and such. I plan to bring all my own food, I'm way too cheap to buy food inside a venue.

Hi there Gorge Thread. This is my first time posting in here.

Well as an Australian, going to the Gorge would always be a challenge for me. But this year I have decided to take the plunge and requested tickets for all 3 nights.

So a few questions if I may:

- I currently requested: GA PIT Only x3. Since I am in Australia, organizing any PIT tickets that I don't get through other sources may be too difficult. Should I just remove the 'only' and take what I can get?

- Since "The Bus!" is full, is there any other method of travel for me to get from Seattle Airport to Gorge?

- Same question for leaving. Is there transport out of there back to Seattle?

- Will everyone be ready to party non stop for the entire weekend with me?

I just found my honey bucket!

We just booked our flight and made our warehouse request for our 3rd year in a row! Becoming an expensive addiction, but sooooo good for the soul

G'day! I would def take the check mark off. With the commitment of getting to this venue, it would suck to be trying to arrange tickets at that point. Even if you only get Pit for 1 of the 3 days, you are still There.

Lots of folks fly in to Sea-Tac for this (we do), I would just make a post looking for transportation and see if you can arrange something based on the time/day you arrive.

Obviously you can also rent a car.

I am an old dude, so I like to sleep a little ;-)

in addition to what the other poster said........

if there is need for a 2nd bus, there will be one. Put your name on the list anyway. Email toups and he'll get you on the list. Its not uncommon for people to leave the bus as plans change. We all stay at the red roof in sea/tac. they'renear the airport and theres a free shuttle to and from the airport. Its also where the bus picks up/drops off..
We will all be ready to party non stop yo! good luck and welcome to gorge

[Jared41]

Cheers for the replies mates. Changed my ticket requests to preference, rather than only.

(Worst part is I let my Warehouse membership accidentally expire last year. So I currently have a WH seniority of about 10 days.)

So, what is sea/tac? You've both mentioned that.

Sea/Tac is short for the Seattle/Tacoma Airport, which is where you'll fly in.

All of us taking the bus are staying at the Red Roof Inn at SeaTac. It's not near any bars or anything tho. I'm working on getting a group rate also.

Just wanted to say welcome from one first timer to another, and wanted to say two years ago I spent a month in your home country, beautiful and the people were amazing. Can't wait until I can go back.
