In this dream, I got to the 40 Watt on Thursday night and found that most people in line waiting to get in had brought along sleeping bags. Everyone planned to just crash on the floor there after the show every night. People were very excited about it. I kept trying to explain why it was a really bad idea, but folks insisted it would be great.
I guess sleeping bags on the 40 watt floor would solve the hotel crisis!

I would say for sure we are. Nothing’s set up yet, but we’ll post it on here when it is. The Transmetropolitan last year was a little unprepared for all of us so we might try somewhere else this time.

In for all three nights. Don't have a place to stay yet but I'm confident something will work out.

I really liked the miniature "local beer festival"/"everyone bring a cooler" to the Days parking lot. I'd be more than happy to bring some Memphis beers!

That goes on every day at the Dazed during Homecoming. And please do.

Tequila Cowboy wrote:There are AirBnB options available. You may have to go a little farther out but Uber and Lyft are in Athens and it's easy to get around. If you're not familiar Little Five Points is about 2 miles away and quite nice and I saw several listings there. Also anything that says close to the stadium would probably be fine as well. Expand you horizons and y'all will be good. Safety tip DO NOT STAY AT THE HOWARD JOHNSON'S. We had some friends that moved to Athens from Jackson last year and they did not ask for hotel recs when they were looking for a house and ended up there. After three hours, rat sightings, blood stains and cockroaches drove them to another hotel even though they had paid for the room. Last I looked it was the only hotel left so be warned.
That's funny, the last time Kevin, Heather and I made the trip to Athens we stayed at Hojo because Kevin REFUSED to stay at Dazed Inn for those very reasons: blood, bugs etc... Eh, who gives a shit as long as you make it inside the 40 Watt :0)

First timer, so quick question: can you buy tickets for all 3 nights at once, or do you buy one for each individually?
Turn it up to 10 and rip off the knob

I hope it's not the Cooley Bird Decoder ring that I received at my 3DD initiation ceremony; regretfully, I lost that years ago.

Last year, I think each night's ticket had to be purchased separately.

At one time they sold package but it's been individually for years so I'm assuming it will remain so.

In 2016, last time I went, they were sold separately but you could put it through as one purchase, open each nights ticket link in a separate window, add one for each, after doing the last one you should see all three waiting to be paid for!
