alfierose Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 My husband is camping this weekend in minus temperatures and snow. Apparently it makes it more fun. California sounds way more appealing even if it's still camping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Drama Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I just booked a room at the Super 8 2 miles from the event. Still a couple rooms left. Going first weekend. Good choice. Super 8 falls into the category of "4 walls, a roof and a door" for me. Sometimes when you're travelling, that's all you need. You'll be a hell of a lot better off than everyone camping out, that's for damn sure.One of the main reasons I'm going to Coachella is for the camping experience. I am 100% sure there will be a tour and I'm not one of those people who HAS to see the first show but I'm looking forward to the experience of the festival as a whole. As someone in their mid 30s,I think I'm well above the target age range for Coachella but between the festival and getting to spend a few days in LA,for me it's worth it. If I had not had the chance to camp,I probably wouldn't be going. I just booked a room at the Super 8 2 miles from the event. Still a couple rooms left. Going first weekend. Good choice.

You'll be a hell of a lot better off than everyone camping out, that's for damn sure.The main reason I'm camping is because I plan on being front row, and I don't want to have to get up earlier from a hotel and drive into the festival and worry about parking and all that the day of the show. I want to be able to get up, drink a monster, take a shot and go. Right on. To each their own and all that. Camping has just never been my thing but I can see why others would dig it in this case.I hate camping, but we gotta do what we gotta do. We'll probably be up super-early anyway.

DieselDaisy Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 You can tell gnr are not a traditional festival (proper camping festival that is) band or we would not be having these conversations today. GNR fans are simply not used to shitting in a plastic rectangular cube! GNR were never a Glastonbury style band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoking guns Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 One thing about the camping is it will be hot out there and you be hot as shit. If you are single, camp and hook up with chicks. If you are in a relationship and want sleep each night get a hotel. The camping there is like a 24/7 spring break party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmackMaster511 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 I scalped a set of Adele tickets on Stubhub to pay for this. A certain lady is still not talking to me. No regrets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Camping has never been my thing either. I thought I was one of those weird cases. That's why I bought a cabin. You can camp.....but you are in a house, sleeping in a bed, with electricity and hot water. The only downside is you can't move it to other places!

wasted Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Just go in see the show then leave. Go back to the airport and sleep there or on the flight. Fly in on the day, return flight are cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got to see the (semi) real deal live in 92 so this is just a bonus to me. I don't think the girls that are there to rave and what not are interested in hooking up with GNR fans. I bet Axl could still put it down though on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
