I want to expect better of you, but I know not to
I got an offer to ride with Mogwai on Friday. If you guys don't straighten up and figure things out I'm going to hitch a ride with him. I dont mean to sound rude but you guys need to stop saying "I think we're gonna do this." We need to be 100% sure what the game plan is.

I need to know what people are doing and everyone should be mentioned/included in the plans so we make sure we all ****ing make it to pound.

If you guys have not noticed, pound is less than a week now and we really need to make our plans definite.

This includes Slox, Sox, myself, trade, noodles, mike $, zk, swift, etc.

EVERYONE.


I'm looking at 1 of 3 options now:

A-I go to grand central and get a ride to NY and then hitch on China Town.

B-I ride with Mogwai

C-I drive there myself.



I want to travel with the people I am rooming with (bolt, swift, noodles, trade, etc) but if you guys aren't gonna be sure as to what our plan is together, i'll get there myself.
I'm actually not good for that ride because I need to pick up Scar and PockyD in DC and we're staying in a dif hotel closer to the airport on Friday, sry.

dun clump me in that ****. You have still never said when you wanted to leave friday. I've said when i wanted/will to leave friday. Im leaving friday with one of 2 ways regardless of what you do. trade/mike$ have posted their plan too. I suggest you call, hook up with, or do whatever to get in contact with sox/slox/bolt(people who have not said anything about what they wanted to do on friday specifically) instead of saying......omg guys straighten up. No one can plan anything with you unless you say when you can do things.

Ive said that I was gonna leave at the latest 2pm from new haven on that friday for the past few weeks now.

how bout you straighten **** out because mine is( and apparently trade/mike$/zk etc are straight too.) No one is gonna give you a schedule or some plan that happens to be within your time frame/convenience to follow.

I will change whatever I need to change/do to get to pound 4. I want to make sure we all get there smoothly and everything works.

What did Noodles say he was going to do?

My thoughts are is that I travel w Slox, Sox, and Bolt because my guess is that trade, mike and noodles will want to be together.

Trains/buses in MD are alot cheaper than the 15$ ride thing so i kinda wanna do that. All thats left is the what time we'd be getting on the china town bus/getting back on. If we're leaving at 2 we should get on around 5 ish right?

nelson you realize that the trip by public trans is hella long and that you will have to do more walking and more waiting and more transferring in a place you have never been? I've looked at the travel path it takes you mad out of the way like how buses/trains are supposed to.......i mean unless you are lookin at something diff, the traveling is hella long for an already long trip.

I'd personally suck it up and pay the 15 bucks and be taken straight there after a hard day of multi state travel. getting lost /tacking like another hour(at the least) to a trip cuz you wanna cut corners on what would be a 15 dollar expense does not seem worth it honestly. this is pound4 Ive been saving/putting money to the side/calculating my expenses for months now.

yo be assertive. call up(cuz the posting in this thread wasnt as volumous as i expected) slox/sox/bolt or trade or someone in his group and ask about times and stuff for friday and leave with one of them. thats my suggestion.

Hey guys. Mogwai and crew are staying at a hotel 45 mins south of the venue on Friday night I didn't know that. Can I stay with you guys Friday night? That'd be super **** thanks. xD I can put in 15$ or w/e it costs to stay with yall for 1 night. If not let me know soon cause I gotta find somewhere else to stay on Friday night.

I'm calling you tomorrow. Sounds like you do not want to **** around much longer either sir.

I should have taken care of this earlier. I do have legitimate Johns though....I've been trying to get a car for the past week or so and have been busy overall.

my plan as it stands in my head:

mike/zk catch a train or get a ride new haven train station ; noodles walk/bus to my house
me and noodles walk/bus to new haven train station
train to gcs
walk to chipotle
walk to chinatown
bus to baltimore

bolt, post ur number so we dont get to to the hotel and not kno how to tell them that u already paid for us
swift, post planks number so we can tth about rides

eggm: :)
quoted for the hell of it.
this is what i read from swift and i guess people will be doing which is basically same thing as you minus walking to chiptotle :D
How much will train and bus cost (total)? (two way)
(way to get there)
new haven station >
grand central(mahattan) >
chinatown(you have to walk there, unless you wanna take the subway which is a bad idea unless you are in NYC by nightfall)
> baltimore travel plaza.....
plank will pick people up from there and bring you to hotel in frederick.

Questions (if they have been answered don't flame me...D:)
How much money should I have on hand? (including food train bus etc...)

How much will train and bus cost (total)? (two way) (yes im ****ing dumb dont push it)

What time are people leaving ?!!?

Phone #s:
(have bolts, mogwais, pofs...)

FYI If I can spend the night (thursday) with bolt. it would be **** (no, not literally)...and easier on me.

(if this singles thing works for noodles then *****:))

gonna call pof in 5 so hopefully he'll be able to answer some if not most of these. (wow that was the most uplifting voice message EVER)

lol mad self conscience slox lol

anyways

THE PLAN IN QUESTION:

28 round trip from new haven to grandcentral
17.50(price may have gone up a bit but not by alot) roundtrip from mahattan to MD
15 for planks ppl if it works out.(like it said in his thread, you have to have money ON HAND).......read his thread cuz thats not 100% certain.

do the math and dun forget you have to eat and pay hotel portion(which at the moment is 200 dollars divided by 7-8 ppl). this is a trip thats a weekend and a few days you should not be trying to cut corners on money cuz you never know what you will needed/have to do during the trip. Really no one should be trying to cut corners on stuff. Technically we've had since genesis(roughly) so theres no sympathy from me.

/thinks of how the latter portion of my post is very pockyd-like

what I suggest is that you talk to POF. I talked some stuff with him earlier today and it seems like he wants to quarterback the situation.(a bit late but at least someone did)

obviously i will be bringing in extra for the "just in case" situations its just that i havent been places out of ct or even fairfield county much without the fam

because my family is OD protective and **** even though we are like supperrrr ghetto

so yeah... D: im shy kid so i wont be speaking out much just tell me what i need to do ill get it done. im ready WHENEVER friday but apparently ... >_> we'll see... we need some more posts in this ***** describing the situation friday/sat.

oh and im bad with directions so i hope someone is really good or some ****. dont expect me to know ****.

(:

Bolt says he doesn't want the bed. Me and swift shotgun it.

Edit : There is also a pullout couch bed I suggest 2 of you sleep on as well.

Okay everyone who is staying in the room I bought.

Everyone must be asleep by 11 pm.
If you want to leave our room after 11 and do stuff go for it, but be quiet when you come back.
No touching anything you have to pay for in the room even if you are willing to pay for it. No room service or anything.
Everyone should wake up at 9 am or around there. Thats up for debate though.
Eggm gets the pull out couch.
I get floor.
ZK and Mike$ get whatever is left if they are still rooming with us.
The bed is up for grabs between sox trademark slox and pof.

This is for the first night.
