ooooh if i can stomach united, there's $250 roundtrip for fyf right now, thur-mon... that is likely united's basic economy, which is basically lcc rules (no mileage earnings, advance seat assignments, carryons, etc.), so just a heads up.

I saw a guy at a recent show (Better Than Ezra) wearing a t-shirt from that fest a few days ago. I was going to ask him about the show, then he went all Hollywood on me and got in the VIP line.

Seems like an odd choice of t-shirt for a Better Than Ezra show.

Seems like an odd choice of t-shirt for a Better Than Ezra show. Agreed. Another odd dude at the BTE show was this guy from who flew from Australia to KC just to see BTE....? He got in the VIP line too, but he did get on stage with the band to play the lead guitar on "Sweet Child o' Mine" cover. And, he was really good. I was only there because BTE were not in the trapper keeper and it was a free show.

I can't figure Open Air out. It seems like they're at a point where they just should paper the festival and hand out tickets through all the usual suspects (maybe Jukely is the start of that). I tried contacting them about working as a volunteer, which based on last year, they could use...but, not even a response.
Meh...if I can go for free, I'm interested. Otherwise, I don't feel I'm missing anything.

im still surprised it did as well as it did last year. that fest should be another 90 miles south and it would be selling out instantly from everyone outside of the city/burbs flocking to it.
that being said, i knew rammstein/disturbed/slipknot would attract a lot of young people during the summer but im surprised the shift to a few older acts would really put people off that much. especially when the undercard is so much better (but also much older) this year.
oh well. should be interesting to see thinner crowds. maybe VIP will offer more perks just cause.

I'd be in for the strike price of "free" for Friday of Open Air. I haven't seen Megadeth in forever and I'd sit through Kiss at least until Paul zipwires through the crowd for Love Gun.

North Coast has been on Jukely in the past. I wouldn't say that's a death knell.

If the fest took place in the city and wasn't during Pitchfork I would go for free to see Kiss + people watching

Yeah, if it wasn't during P4k I'd go for sure.

I saw that, and I would certainly love to. There's absolutely no way I could do it without a cheap flight, though. Odds are still very low.

I've flown Spirit dozens of times between New York and Chicago over the past several years. Not always ideal, but overall, my experience has been positive. If you can make it to Vegas and back with a backpack small enough to fit under the seat in front of you, then I'd go for it (maybe spend the extra $66 to get a round trip exit row seat). I'm seeing United flights for less than $300, too, but those fares have Spirit-esque restrictions, too. Fwiw, the Hopper app thinks prices for flights will dip a bit over the next two or three weeks.

i've done frontier a few times and have no complaints but unfortunately for vegas, i would very likely need more than a small bag so spirit might become problematic very fast. otherwise i would've just hopped on those already. and the united ones back on monday look like either 6 am or midnight. i can make those work, technically, i'd just rather not hate myself for doing it but yeah i've frequently been told that for vegas, you can find deals very close to your departure date and it's worth waiting. it's just not usually how i plan things so i'm getting a bit anxious. (will keep you in the loop of deals i find, teekoh)

Pale Hose and me are in agreement irt Open Air that the fact it's the same weekend as Pitchfork does neither fest any favors. I don't think they expected as much fan crossover as there is. For example, there are a lot of people who would be happy seeing Ozzy, Anthrax, Megadeth, Meshuggah, etc at a festival as well as seeing Tribe, LCD, PJ Harvey, Clinton, etc. Shit, I've owned cds from all of them before!

(will keep you in the loop of deals i find, teekoh) did you price out how much it is to include a carry on bag as well? if you buy them when you book the flight it might only add like $50 r/t and might be cheaper than other flights still

Yeah that's the only problem with Friday basically only being a half day. Then again I don't know if my body could handle three full days.

If I can see Bjork/Missy/Angel then everything else is just gravy. It helps that Slowdive has that tour coming up...
I'm worried they're gonna put Kehlani against NIN. I just noticed they moved Hannibal to Friday so Kehlani seems like the next best counterprogramming to me.

Considering Friday starts at 5, yeah - it's gonna be tight. It goes late though, doesn't it?
Their twitter is saying the playlist will be updated on the app by end of day, so hopefully schedule will be up by then, too...
