Unknown carpool?

edited July 2013
Hey fellows
Katy and I need rides to/from the Unknown fest, is anyone going? if so, do you have room in your car?
our situation is somewhat weird:

1. On the way UP we just need a spot for me and our gear (guitar, amp, keyboard, stand, not too bad)
2. On the way BACK we need spots for both Katy and me and our gear

anyway can anyone help us? Rides 1 and 2 could come from different people, or the same people, or I don't know

??

let a dog know

  • I wanna go up Friday afternoon and return Sunday evening. Anybody? I'll give you $$$ and I'll plug my phone into your car stereo and play fart sounds.
  • Yes I forgot to add, obviously we will pay you money if you drive us/our stuff
    Alex maybe we should rent a car together if no other rides come through?
  • I dinnae have a license so I can't rent a car in my name but I would go in on one for sure if it fits the schedule described above. Also I have a permit so I can drive if there is another licensed adult in the car.
  • I really like that you bought a house before you got a license.
  • I had a license from 1997-2006! It's just been on vaca for a while.
  • I am a licensed adult
  • Alex this could prove to be a valuable learning experience!
  • Hey!
    Who's coming? UncleShoes, are you going to be there this year? We have room now, write to me if you need a place to stay. I wish Gary was coming.

    A friend is going to need a ride back from Anacortes to Portland, but I think he's hoping to stay an extra day. Is anyone planning on hanging out this year on Monday?
    That's our favorite time! We can watch Matt Damon movies at the theater, eat Mexican food and go swimming...

    I don't have a license and I don't know how to operate vehicles so don't count on me to drive you anywhere.
  • I'M COMING!

    I'M COMING UP!

    Me and Alex are going to arrive on a cloud of fart sounds on Friday around 6:00

    We're leaving Sunday night after L&M plays!!

    CLASSIC TOUR VIBE
  • Classic tour vibe indeed!

    Long lost are the days of lying around for hours, eating french fries on people's porch.

    It's the age of quick trip, hotels and fast returns to pets, babies, and jobs.
  • that's life!
    for the record though it is Alex's fault as he is the one with the job. I am on vacation and do nothing but lie around in my bikini doing beer bongs
  • GET READY

  • have fun, dummies!

    wish I was there- have to be at a nuptials this weekend. Love>Fest!
  • I had so much fun in the car with our friend Alex.
    He was an engaging conversational partner and an excellent navigator.
    He made just the right number of dick jokes
    He was able to discuss the end of the world and not having babies in a delightful and positive fashion
    We had our good fun

  • Tell fest stories though!
  • - kid asking me to tell him what it was like when nirvana was a band
    - amazing talent show in the park: some highlights: girl reading chapter of Werner Herzog's book; weird wordless ballet where girl on roller skates invents a mummy and they fall in love; Nick and Julia doing choreographed yoga; kid dribbling basketball and soliciting applause; me doing all of "Deep Trouble" by Bart Simpson; Karl Blau amazing dry MC humor; Phil telling the world's greatest knock-knock joke; Joey's uncanny impersonation of Roy Orbison; Dirk's talent being "Feats of Streangth" like breaking boards and pushups; local character nobody knew showing up and reading very very long story he wrote about a sailboat, and totally winning over the crowd
    - literally the best band I have ever seen = Key Losers with Katy and four young handsome men all shredding like you've never seen before on "Margaritaville" while Katy yelled "fuck you guys" and threw corn chips into the crowd
    - explaining who Gary is to people who don't know him and laughing til tears ran down my cheeks
    - lake swimming and laughing so hard at all the dumb critters I get to be friends with
    - Karl's daughter and her friend being such old pros at the lake, swimming across and leaping again and again from the top of a tree; coaching various members of our party who couldn't quite nail it and went flopping out awkwardly to the delight of all onlookers
    - girl slumber party room at Fudge and Joey's house, where I always get the best goddamn sleep of my life
    - feeling my age but in a cool way. Remembering when I was the age of the kids at the festival, looking at people like Calvin and being like whoa, that old dude has been around forever, and now I am getting to be an old dude. Telling kid about first time I ever saw a cellphone; kid telling me he got my solo album when he was thirteen. Feeling very McConnaughey, "I keep getting older but they stay the same age." But it's nice, so nice to keep living your life but scenes like this one stick around and stay fulfilling and meaningful.
    - really enjoyed a lot of bands and actually sat and listened to more music than I usually do. Really liked so much music I heard. Forgot to purchase any albums.
    - FINALLY SOLD OUR LAST TWO T-SHIRTS after relentlessly hectoring the audience about them. Karl bought one of them.
    - love seeing Fudge and Joey, what a treat. They do such a good job.
    - Katy being so into wrecking our rental car. e.g. insisting "you've got it! you've got it!" instead of letting me reverse to do a u-turn, scraping the bumper all to hell and then laughing uproariously when I get mad
