If anyone has a way to record Storytellers from Friday night, June 3 (VH1 @ 11 pm ET), DVD or VCR, let me know and bring it to Mt. Jam.  We'll have our own viewing party late night.  Granted, it will be a tiny tv in a tiny ski condo.

Hopefully, we'll have a straight path to the stages from our door, about 1500 feet...

Hey Dude,
I could probably tape it Friday night and bring it up on Sunday. I have a VHS and DVD recorder so find out what the condo has? I brought my own DVD player last time I stayed at the Condos there. Better off safe than sorry. I usually go up for the entire weekend, but I have a bagpipe competition that Saturday in NJ, so I am just gonna come up for Sunday now. But plan to stay Sunday night. Not sure where yet, but will fig it out.

Cheers!

BTW - I would recommend buying a weekend ticket with camping. That way you can cut through the camping area to the Condos. If not you have to walk ALL the way around. Which sucks. The camping area is fun too!

Don't mind at all. I've been out of town for a bit, and still trying to catch up around here.

Thanks johnny.

Aw, I already bought my pass w/out camping.  Figured I could just walk through.  Of course not!  Hmmmmm. :-\

EDIT: It might not be that much more to walk around, but I'm wondering what the attitude of the festival planners would be towards bikes?  I could definitely bring a bike along, may do so regardless. 

EDIT #2: Bikes not allowed on festival grounds.  Hmmmm.  Not even in the parking lot?  Doesn't seem very eco-friendly, now does it?

thanks for the camping pass tip brian .. i have yet to get tix and will grab that one if it's all the same price

The camping pass adds $30.  I've emailed festival organizers.  You can upgrade to include camping area access if you got the pass w/out camping by calling 888 512 SHOW.  I can't decide if its worth it, especially if most of the folks I'm hanging with don't go this route.  Thoughts?

Still trying to find out if I could bike there from the condo, just lock it up in the parking lot.  Seems reasonable, but maybe they don't need a bunch of drunk and/or high people tooling around on two wheels, eh?

Aahh, a little extra walk can't be that bad, can it? I'm thinking doing the walk on Friday, and if it really is a long hike, then upgrading to the camping pass to cut through for Saturday and Sunday.

I'm not opposed to spending the extra $, but if it's not really that big of a deal, that extra $ x 5 or 6, could buy a decent amount of food and booze for the condo. ;)

I wonder if Brian can fill us in on what the difference between cutting through the camping, and going around really is? An extra 10-15 minutes, or an hour?

I don't mind walking, but will go with whatever the majority decides.

Well, the final word from Mt. Jam is that you can bike to the lot, with racks to lock it up, but I doubt its that far.  Just looking at the aerial photo, maybe a 20 minute walk around vs. under 10 minutes straight through. 

I agree with Eric; save our $30 for food, bev, etc.  I was just thinking having a bike would be a nice alternative if we need to make a quick run to the condo.  I'll plan to bring mine so we can use it as a communal bike for such situations.
