OBH4!

[Cameron]

can't. fucking. wait.

[piton87]

Darn didn't see those.

Just more tunes for us to enjoy!

Interesting that you have Toots & The Maytals playing an early afternoon show.  I wonder how the timing of the sets will be spread out, since there are enough acts for an afternoon set, an evening opener, a headliner, and a late night set every night.

I figured toots is getting up there in age so maybe he'd do a earlier show. Last time he came To my home town someone nailed him with a bottle of vodka.

Yikes!!  I'd be good with a midday set though.

Less than 4 months to One Big Holiday 4!!!!!!!!!

Okay - Just nearly had a minor heart attack.  Logged into JetBlue.com and saw that my connecting flight to Punta Cana from Fort Lauderdale was shown as Cancelled.  Turns out there had been a minor time change on the connecting flight, so the 'original' itinerary was cancelled, but the new itinerary was still valid.  So, for anyone connecting to Punta Cana on JetBlue on March 1, flight 173, just know that Cancelled = new flight time.

So, I booked OBH for me and the hubby as a surprise Christmas/wedding gift/honeymoon.

And now, I finally get to spill the beans in less than a month (fingers crossed he can get the couple days off he needs)...any thoughts on a creative/cool way to tell him he finally gets to go?

I was hoping for something small that he could unwrap since just saying, "Hey guess what, I booked OBH" seems a little anti-climactic. Also, I spent oodles, as you all know, so the little reveal can't be too extravagant.

Maybe have him open up a box full of sand, with the band names sprinkled in amongst the sand and maybe some beer bottle caps?

By the way - you've pulled this off, you are AWESOME!!!!

Good call sillyboob. Maybe playing One Big Holiday as background music too.

So cool BWE, sounds like he has a gem in you, hope to meet you two in the DR

Great ideas, sillyboob and rkwedge -- maybe I'll get crafty and do one of those ornaments you can fill like a terrarium with the sand, song, and bottle caps. I'll report back on how long it takes to sink in.

Definitely pace yourself.  Getting through Deer Tick's late night set on the last night this year was tough!

[slappymoe]

so i assume the "main stage" is the big courtyard, middle of the map? therefore assuming this means MMJ will not be playing on the beach.
