    vegoose

    i decided to go down to vegas this weekend to check this festival out.

    http://www.vegoose.com/index.htm

    i've never been to vegas before, and i plan to be really, really drunk 90% of the time.

    anyone have any ideas for some really depraved shit i can get into while i'm there?

    You can get in to depraved shit in vegas without any ideas at all.

    I once found myself in a bar there that had this weird deal where you could just piss off of a balcony-- doods and girls-- on to all the people below who were, I guess, in to it.
    It's idomatic, beatch.

    Unhappy

    Listen to me. Listen carefully. Do not take a copious amount of mushrooms, wander into the basement of the Excalibur and get lost in thought about the fact that all of the custodians are dressed as serfs AND happen to be very short minorities. You will lose your mind. Trust me.

    You're going to have an amazing time. Tons of good acts. Whatever you do don't miss the Flaming Lips. I'm sure they can't go all out as this is a festival and not their own tour, but I gaurantee you've never experienced anything like it before. Sheer madness.

    Arcade Fire
    Ween

    EDIT...need someone else to join you? Seriously tempted, got airline miles to burn and I'm free on Sat and Sun.

    I would suggest avoiding the inside of all casino properties while on halluciigens.
    overwhelming noise and mzes designede to keep you in with no clocks is the last thing you need.
    the out side?
    well the outsides of the casions are alright especially the fake pirate battles, laser show fountains etc.
    caution. there will be elephants wandering around
    they are real.
    camp at the lake for fun
    I imagine that will go off like it used to for dead shows

    Just put a call into meats to quit his job (he has to work this weekend) and to meet me in vegas. I think he'll be calling frozenwater soon. I also just got permission from my wife.

    It's best when flying if you can spot one of the frequent geriatrics with walker, oxygen tank, smoking ciggies while pulling the 1-arm. Ah...America. Espcially after having zipped through Nevada and Utah.

    I disagree, inside the casinos (except Curcus Circus) on mushrooms can be fun, as long as you don't take too much. Do the ride on top of the Space Needle thingy for sure. Great rush (and fun on mushrooms too). I heard they built a newer, better ride on top recently.

    Or you could skip the whole casino thing and go straight to the Speramint Rhino.

    I smell the sweet, sweet odor of Fate.

    Or is that dirty strippers?

    Well, whatever.

    edit: I think my post would have been a little less creepy if I'd gotten it finished before Ice's.

    Go dood. I still don't have a set partner in crime. Meats might play responsible. (To believe he's my brother.) I'm worried if I'm wandering the strip dressed as a six year old dressed as a robot I might fall into the wrong hands.

    Show me a plane ticket leaving Friday night for less than $200 and I might reconsider. Anyone go suggestions?

    Bas, this is an interesting idea except for the price tag attached. 130 bucks for a ticket to the festival? God knows how much to try to scalp a ticket to one of the club shows? ouch!

    I say call the airline and haggle. Good old fashioned haggling is under rated. BTW you might have better chances looking to fly out early Sat am and then returning Monday around noon. That's the plan here. Basically that follows the webfare schedule. See what you can do. I might only need a room for one night. Saturday night. Then on Sunday night plan to party until sunrise. My flight would leave around 6:45 so I'm gussing I'd need to be to the airport by 5:00. Ttoally all night party do-able.

    Stump, that's a steal for that many solid shows. There are two bands there I've wanted to see for awhile and have never seen (beck, arcade fire) and then the Flaming Lips on their own is just about worth the price of admission.

    Pathetic- I was listening to it at the same time too. I am a definite Flaming Lips JONG. First exposed to them on this site. Thanks MD9.

    It is "natured" , not mannered- Jong




    Have you heard "Thank You Jack White" that is a funny song.
