hahahaha, I wish I was paying that much. Our group is hella expensive... Tourquois Place is pricey, then we collect money ahead of time to cover all booze and meals outside of the fest. Not sure how that works out - I know we could do food cheaper, but we do put together pretty dank ass meals. Everyone gets a bed too, not really slumming it at any point in my group. Probably $450/person this year for Thursday thru Tuesday (love that extra day, screw that Monday traffic)
Why would you stay at the most expensive beachfront condo in Alabama and it also be one of the farthest?
Fair question, I know it goes against intuition. But... because it is BY FAR the nicest place to stay? Same reason you would you stay somewhere nice during any vacation? Shuttle picks up literally at the front door. If you're west beach, and in the middle of shuttle points, your walk from condo to shuttle point can be hella long (truuuust me) - no doubt an immediate shuttle pick up/drop off is faster than a ton of places way closer to the fest. It's like a 10 min drive, so all the people parking are def spending longer than I am on travel. It's about logistics, not just being closer or farther... I mean, if you're at IWW then being close matters, but if you're using the shuttle, TP rocks. Also, considering they have shuttle pick ups well past TP, it stands to reason that TP isn't really the farthest at all.
Everyone who's been to the beach knows that a lot of condos (most), and especially houses, that are rented out 80% of the year have "interiors by rubbermaid". Rightfully so, too. Why have a bunch of people messing up your nice decor? Well, TP is different. You pay for it, sure, but to me it's worth it. Staying at TP rather than a bayside place is basically the same thought process as going to Hangout over Bonnaroo - it's just plain nicer. Lazy river, penthouse, hot tub, free cleaning service, and the nicest place - kinda a no-brainer for me. We've tried both ways a few times and always long for TP when we're not there.
So weird, I was just wondering whether people were remembering condo costs when comparing hangout's price to other festivals, and this dude starts asking me how much water costs in various forms. Water is free, my man!
"By Far". I know a lot of folks who would disagree with you so not sure about that claim. I'm glad you like your accommodations for Hangout. I really like mine, know your place, and would not trade with you. If you are on the west side, give me a yell and I'll buy you a beer.

Yeah, I mean, that's all only my opinion which certainly isn't gospel. And, obviously, I haven't stayed everywhere in the area. I'd be interested to hear about the places your friends would suggest - sounds like they're right up my alley and I should give them a shot. Comparing our two places is like comparing apples and broccoli, tho - I'd definitely trade with you, you have one of the best possible spots, I think most people would agree that you have an absolutely killer spot. As long as everyone is having a good time, it's all good with me - just trying to give the mollymuncher a truthful answer.
Edit: ahhhhh, I see.... that "interiors by rubbermaid" comment may have come out wrong. Def not trying to cut on anyone here's decisions/condos/houses - only speaking from my previous experiences. I have full faith in everyone here's ability to plan a sweet hangout location. My bad

Has been pretty cold in Buffalo these past few days but glad we are missing this storm. Lake Erie still isn't frozen. Would of dumped snow on us.

Out of curiosity, what would you pay for for a condo/hotel if you waited for the lineup to come out before buying? I know for Coachella there are deals to be had 9 months in advance, but once the lineup comes out you're either camping, paying $400pp, or staying off the grid.

correct me if im wrong, but i think zaj got into the same condo as most of us in OCean Reef after the lineup dropped. think he said it ended up being closer and cheaper?
Lmao. Hangout truly is the lesser entity there. All the makeup and lipstick, rethinking lineups, etc doesn't matter. Whatever bullshit I had to put up with to be in Baldwin County became useless with this pop lineup. I mean the only acts sort of calling me is Run the Jewels who I saw twice last year, Moon Taxi who I saw 3 or 4 times last year, Portugal who I have seen twice in the last 20 months and Florence who I saw a good chunk of 10/30/15. Sure, there is some other good shit on the lineup, but it's not inspiring. We can discuss in person at Euphoria which is already better though a small/mid tier fest.

My understanding is a lot of people repeat rentals and get a fairly good price early. So that made sense assuming they would consistently deliver somewhat of a quality lineup. We have a place in Pensacola and just drive down every day, so it's not an issue for me. But that's what people have posted around here.

Line-up is fantastic so far. I'll probably camp but that is still up in the air. Working on some free passes for this.

uhh b/c it's nice as fuck! i have a cousin who lives there full time. lazy river is the jam! plus the free HOF afterparty. but i do agree it is far as fuck from the festival.
Age is probably why I don't see the point. I mean listening to music underwater in he lazy river is dope and it's easily the nicest building in the state but I'd rather spend that money on alcohol and things that inforoo will ban for talking about.

It's on. Me and my 3 will be there as well as probably some of their friends. I'm GA camping but I did spend the extra 120 for VIP fest only.
