A hotel?....Dude, it's a festival, camp out!


I would never consider getting a hotel as I would be missing 1/2 the festival, and most of the headliners go on between 10pm and 5am anyways (at least at the festivals/gatherings I go to :shrug:).




One tip, be prepared for anything....I was at a festival last weekend and this is what I woke up to :smirk: .

yeah honestly if ur not camping out its really not even a festival

festies like electric zoo and ultra and electric daisy carnival are all lame as fuck bc u cant camp out there, i mean the music is good, but ur missing out on soooooo much of the experience

whoever was considering getting a hotel, dont do that, not only is it more money for a hotel, but its less fun and requires more driving...who wants to drive when their at a festival? idk about you, but i go ALL OUT at festies, no need to drive

camping is way cooler than a hotel, 100%

Or, you can be like me, and not even bring camping shit. I bring warm and cold weather clothes and sleep in my car.

But even then, I don't sleep. I party all night, then maybe grab 2-5 hours during the middle of the day. There are millions of beds when you sleep during the day and party all night.

I don't know how much sleep I'm gonna get at waka. I'll probably only crash on Friday night/Saturday morning, and we're planning on heading there Wednesday afternoon. I guess I might sleep Wednesday night in my car since we'll be outside the festival waiting to get in.

Hope to see you there. :sun::pm:

Thanks everyone for the advice,I will take it all into consideration, I was the one considering the hotel. My main reasons where/are if the weather turns for the extreme worst, being at a hotel to me would seem better than being in a tent, also I don't have a tent so I would either have to buy one or like Joolz suggested sleep in my car, which I have been considering originally for awhile - (heh, thinks of ricky).

Another reason I had is if the festival atmosphere becomes to much for me (i don't know what to expect), I can always relax with the knowledge that I have a small pad to return to for comfort. Also the hotel I was looking at isn't too expensive compared to other hotels and has some nice features, like kitchen, stove top, refrigerator, and has a connected living area with sofa - all for a good price. with just a regular hotel, I'd be more inclined to just camp in the car or tent. Having a shower to my self and stuff is all appealing as well. 

Depending on what shows i want to go to, i'd figure I'd leave the festival between/around 2-3 am for the hotel. I am also kind of afraid of getting my stuff stolen from out of my tent ! I guess I could always put a lock on the tents zipper, but I just imagine someone cutting my tent open and stealing all of my stuff. Also I think with the money I'd spend on camping gear, getting a hotel wouldn't be to huge of a difference, but maybe I am completely wrong, though I don't even have a sleeping bad, i guess I don't need one, I'd just have to shop smart or sleep in the car, which i don't think would be to bad, but having a tent would probably be more fun than the car. 

I have it in my head that I'd be way more comfortable and at ease having the hotel to go to, chill out, prepare food, vape ,skate, laugh, and sleep well.  I do love nature, but I've never slept well while camping. The plus side to camping would be I'd probably get to meet more people, come across cooler stuff, have a bit more money to spend on said cooler stuff, and experience more of what the festival has to offer. The down side to getting a hotel I think would be mainly driving and having to be sober enough to drive- which I don't think would be too big of a problem. having to spend a little more money, and possibly miss out on some cool stuff and meeting and hanging out with cool people. 

I could probably go on and on, but this is a bit much already, my apologies for the long erratic post, I have a lot of thoughts swimming around- and I am still uncertain, but leaning more towards camping than I was originally before. I would/could see at least getting the hotel for just sat night but i still don't know for sure.


Again, Thanks everyone for their input. it helps a little bit to untangle all of my uncertainties. 

FTW-
For what its worth:
As for drug use, I am not as experienced as some, like i've never done mdma,mda, mostly because it never appealed to me since I don't know what I would be getting and the whole possible neurotoxic thing and notorious comedown , but I would slightly consider possibly trying it, i dunno tho, I like shrooms allot, have tripped a fair bit, or small bit compared to some, 7 to 11 times id say maybe.. I dunno, I've gotten effects from taking what was given to me as lsd 3 times, I am pretty sure those 3 times where with legit doses, these experiences where well spaced out from one another. I like cannabis ALLOT, but don't like smoking it, so if i don't get a hotel, i ll be leaving my vape at home:frown: and bring some papers. I really don't like smoking tho ! eh. but even if i do go to a hotel, i am sure i'll smoke a bit at the right times.  I will say this tho, I like to space out my trips, and being in this new environment, I'd be pretty cautious on what substances I'd take.

Here's some advice if you camp:

Pray that some drunk fool doesn't think that you're tent is a great place to fall down on.

I've seen it happen before where some sloshed dude just complete flattens and snaps the pole of the tent that he stumbled into. Makes you laugh a little bit and you think, "Sucks to be the owner of that tent."

Unfortunately sometimes that sort of shitty luck comes knocking at the door. This weekend I went to camp out and see some music. We came back after the show and my tent was flattened to the ground. I picked it up in the dark and noticed that my cross poles were badly bent and snapped making the tent unusable.

I'm just glad I was at the show instead of actually being in there sleeping when it happened. I was way too bummed out and high on some mdma to go around trying to find out who crunched my awesome tent at the time.

:lol:



Something similar happened to me last weekend at a festival....I was laying down in my tent just trying to catch some physical rest, I could hear foot steps stumbling towards me and sure as hell the dude (or chick?) stumbles into the side of my tent. They didn't collapse it, they sorta caught them selves from falling completely into it but in the process stepped on my hand. I don't think they even knew I was in it, shit they probably didn't even know they had stumbled into a tent. I was on LSD when this happened and it seemed like everything happened so quickly I didn't even say anything or get up, just continued on laying there...Don't even know what I would have said anyways :shrug: .





But really, it's a festival....Shit happens every time no matter how much I prepare...It's fine though :smirk:






:stoner:

That would suck, both comical and tragic in a sense - I guess I or anyone else should prepare for the random and unexpected. I was thinking of bringing a hammock of sorts to set up somewhere if i get a bit tired early in the day.  If i were to get a hotel I think it would be best for only sat, naturally. I going to start focusing on other aspects of the festival now that's more squared away.  -

Is it usually hard to find a good place to setup camp ? I was thinking I would try to setup somewhere not exactly to far off, but not to near the campsite if possible - I dunno, I've been looking at youtube videos of the campsites of these festivals to get a good idea of what it might be like. Meeting up with people would be cool I think, I don't know my way around the park at all, finding places might be difficult. I need to start learning my way around now if possible- google earth.

I was at the "last phish" tour at alpine valley, I was with a group of 3, I had to pee really bad and the bathrooms where like maybe 500 yards away through a sea of people. I eventually find the bathrooms and everything was chaos. There had to off been what seemed like over 100 people in the bathroom, probably more like 75, it was crowed with lines at the funnel's (urinal), tho I only had to wait like 5 min.s - It was so weird being there let alone peeing their, literally people where yelling and laughing peeing everywhere because they didn't want to wait in line, in the garbage can like 5 at a time, on the wall, it was a mad house, fucking mad. I quickly pied which was surprising given the situation - This whole voyage to the bathroom happened right when I started to peak on a good dose of mushrooms, and about an hour on into the show. At the time I was seriously thinking, is this what a concentration camp might be like, for some reason that bathroom kind of threw off that vibe I felt.

So now I am out of the bathroom and refreshed and vibrant, I take in the views of the stage and people, and start to worry about finding my spot where my friends are, I remember marking the diagonal position of where we where at earlier by realizing we were right in line of the tip of the third or so downward sloop of the stage, kind of like a v . I then simply walk across to that point then began from the edge of the crowd down into the labyrinth of humans to my friends, it was weird going through so many groups of people meshed in with other people, I soon find my friends in no time, and shortly after enjoyed a dose of liquid and then shortly later shared a blunt to the light show. They had also informed me that I could of just pied out by the gate near the outskirts of the festival.

I really don't know what to expect from this festival - But I am certain I ll find some good times.


Cheers

This reminds me of the time I was drunk as hell and ended up in the wrong tent (it was the same kind as mine) and was screaming about someone stealing my air mattress...well 1 minute later I had to explain to this kid that I thought it was my tent...comical to me

Hah, I've done that with a car before, I was like why is my car covered in bird shit, doors unlike, and feels so weird, I was convinced after sitting in the driver seat for like 10 seconds that this was my car.

I wasn't even high :rolleyes:

Haha, that reminds me the time I was flying high on mescaline and stumbled across a coke head in our tent :grin: .



It was about 3am and the peak of the night, my buddy and I make our way to the tent to grab some snacks & water. I walk into the tent first and see this girl crouched down, like I said I was on mescaline at the time so I sorta did a double take as I wasn't sure :smirk: . Once I realized there was indeed some girl in our tent I noticed she looked terrified, so the first thing that came into my mind was this girl was tripping really hard and found her way into our tent as shelter or to just get away, who knows :shrug: . So I try to be calm and polite and ask her if everything is alright and if she knows that she is not in her tent....


....Haha, she answers "Oh yea, I just came in here really quick to do some coke, I wanted privacy and didn't want to do it out in the open"...Then proceeds to hand over a small baggy 1/4 full of coke with a straw in it, "Want some?"....Shit, offering me and my buddy coke was the least she could do in that situation, and yes I did take her up on the offer :wink: . I got a damn good snoot up the nose as the straw was in the baggy, it was about my 3rd time doing coke as well, and I was getting tired so it was a really nice perk up....Shit worked out :thumbup:



Finding coke heads in your tent = free coke :lol:

The last festival I was offered free Ketamine, MDA two times, a good amount of DMT, LSD, and plenty of hash/hash oil. People are very generous with their chemicals at the thangs I attend, I don't plan on eating much but when it's offered for free I can't turn it down :shrug:
