When We Were Young Festival (Las Vegas) Tour • Page 83

Just finished digging my battered old converse high tops out of a box in the basement lol

 

Okay so it’s gonna top off around 30-35 mph at the absolute worst (and maybe much less) according to current estimates. That’s gonna be uncomfortable (fucking dirt/sand in your eyes all day) and inconvenient for stagehands if shit gets blown around but that’s not dangerous at all I can’t imagine

 

I’m ready to watch from afar we at least got turnstile this weekend

 

Headed to the airport, let’s do this

 

Wind is definitely a concern and one that I never would have thought about. Hope it isn't as bad as they say. Could be a real problem.

 

It’ll also make the sound horrible. That’s my biggest concern

 

I'm tired af and read this as Turnstile having been announced for this weekend at the festival and was so pumped for like a moment

 

It ain’t gonna sound great regardless of the wind lol

 

I once drove to a show in Philly (5 hour drive) and my AirBNB didn’t answer despite very accessible up until that moment. Just drove home. It sucked but beat getting an overpriced hotel for 8 hours.

 

Don’t drink at all but with those prices I doubt I’ll be the only sober one yeesh

 

I’d rather go across the street and get a bucket of Coronas for $10 or whatever the hell it is. Haha.
But honestly, I had no intention of getting drinks at this show anyway so whatever. Hopefully lots of people wait in line for drinks to clear some space at the stages :)

 

Those prices are fine. Vegas baby!

 

They’re pricey but it’s been like that at every fest I’ve gone to this year

 

Soda, water, and sports drinks are more than reasonable for a festival. So I’ll just be chugging some Gatorade, I’m sure. Especially since it’ll be almost 90 degrees and windy. Gonna feel like we’re standing in front of a giant blow dryer. Can’t wait…………………

 

I haven’t bought booze at an event like this in years so I probably have the wrong perception of how much things cost haha. Water is in line with what I pay at a big amphitheater show in St. Louis tho so that’s reasonable for sure. Will be camelbaking it tho

 

I’ll have a open the pit up and that’s the spirit

 

Gotta love those US fest drink prices. So insane.

 

I like how they just have a category for IPA... they definitely know the demo.

 

If there's re-entry, you could theoretically run to the Walgreen's that's kitty corner from the festival grounds and get a water, right?

 

Exactly. And there is re-entry.

 

Everyone knows that’s essentially 2 beers for that price right? Sounds pretty good to me.

 

Can't wait to hear about the chaos of people shifting from Paramore to MCR.

 

Pro tip: Stand on one side and pivot your body slightly, no movement necessary! That's what I did between Alkaline Trio and MCR at Riot Fest and it was perfect.

 

Not sure I could pay $15 for a PBR.
