I think I might skip Paramore (I saw them a couple weeks ago) and see Thursday instead, and then just stand in the back somewhere during MCR. Now that I've typed it out, I don't think I can actually skip out on Paramore...
I'm not gonna complain about drink prices because it's a festival in a city where drinks are already over priced but a pbr for 15 bucks is criminal. At least offer well whiskey with it.
Got into Vegas at 1130 PT last night, stayed up til like 3 with my buddy I haven't seen in over a year...and then of course this Midwest dad woke up at what would be 8:30 am central time lol and can't go back to sleep. Gonna be a loooong weekend. my buddy's fr CA and I'm so jealous he's still asleep haha

I didnt lose any money yesterday but ouch my head. Called it at 4am or 7am eastern time on the day i arrived. This city destroys me but here i am asking for more. Met so many festival peeps tho. Weirdly nearly everyone is pumped for story of the year. Suprisingly popular undercard.
At RF while everyone was busy trying to find a spot for MCR I was enjoying Alk3 and once MCR came up I just stayed at the same spot, watching from the side and avoiding all that mess that was going on. It was perfect.
If it's super windy maybe the faint of heart will bail early and it will be less crowded #wishfulthinking
For some reason I decided to be an idiot yesterday and walked from the Venetian to the OYO... TWICE! Now my knee is fucked up and I'm full of blisters. I managed to limp my way to Walgreens to get something to put on the blisters but my knee hurts like hell. I'll try to rest as much as I can, I'm going to lunch with some friends and then to that place When We Were Hungry was supposed to be in (mainly to see Picturesque) and from there to the SOTY show. RIP my everything.
