Oh man, haha, I was planning on posting about Genesis today too. Oh well, I will still post what I was planning to post.
Angela and I are planning on driving up there. We are staying at the Ramada Inn that is reserved for smashers, and is also within walking distance to the venue.
Anyways, Angela and I have 3 extra seats left in our car, and are willing to drive anyone who is willing to help with expenses. Gas isn't cheap, ESPECIALLY in California, and the hotel isn't free. Each person would need to pay around $140. It is about an 11-12 hour drive to Antioch, and we will only stop for gas, food, and to stretch our limbs. This price is based off the assumption that we are getting the Executive Queen, which comes with a Queen-sized bed and a pull-out couch, as well as a good amount of space. However, if you guys want, we can reserve a Parlor Suite, thus giving us a kitchen and a lot more space. Though, if we got the Parlor Suite, then everyone would need to pay about $150. NOTE: These prices do not include the venue fees. You will also have to pay that, whatever it happens to be, as the prices haven't been announced yet.
I need to know who is coming ASAP, as I don't want to miss out on hotel reservations or pre-registration.
