lazy locomotives Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 Been a while since I posted this, so I figured I'd check to see if anyone's heard anything in the last month... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Not a peep. There was that somewhat discouraging sounding statement from Jeff during the British interview (I forget the details) where he said something about they hadn't made up their minds about 2012 yet but that if they didn't do it then they would definitely do it the following year. That sounded like both good news and bad news, but of course maybe they're still just wrangling about dates for 2012. I'm sure hoping for good news, but I don't know. . . .

lazy locomotives Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 I hear ya...I've got some commitments lining up next summer and I'm really trying to plan around Solid Sound...argh! SS2011 was SUCH a good time (in spite of the rain)... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 FWIW, the early buzz was June 24-26, and that's still what some local hotels seem to think might be the case. I've got reservations (cancellable) just in case that turns out to be The Weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ELS Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Just wondering, how much does it usually cost to do Solid Sound? (tickets+hotel+travel) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky speaks Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Two people, at least $500. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-seven Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Tickets were around $90 each if you bought early.Hotels were around $100 / nightCamping is available. Don't know the price on that.Food was reasonably priced (and delicious) and there was free water available.Beer (pints) were $4 or $5 bucks.Transportation will depend on where you are coming from. But parking was free most everywhere and there were free shuttles as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SarahC Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I want to do this, but don't know how in the world we could afford it. Might try to talk Matt into waiting to take a honeymoon and make it Solid Sound! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
