My work won't let me go.

BAH!

I was really looking forward to this. It's extra sour because I will be in NYC, but about one week late.

That really blows. I was looking forward to pop and lardy frosting with you. Your employers are a bunch of cornholes.

eeee! i just bought 2 passes. we're missing some of saturday and all of sunday, but i think getting a pass guarantees we'll get into the shows we want, right? i wonder what the stage times are for saturday - we probably have to leave around 5 to catch our flight home.

Tullycraft is playing twice now on this weekend.

Indeed. I will be there June 25. Can you ask all bands to do a little reprise for me?

Will you be there on June 26th, Dennis? The POBPAH are playing at the Cake Shop, you should definitely go see them!

They are? Ooh, I should try to go yes! I'm not in NYC but in Princeton then, but that problem could be solved. Thanks!

this depends on whether one of my lovely friends wants to go (drive me up there) on saturday...

squirrelboutique · Post by **squirrelboutique** » Sat Jun 07, 2008 11:08 pm

I can't!

I really shouldn't be too sadface because I am going to have an awesome summer otherwise, but I needed to buckle down and save some money for other things.

thats almost how i feel too
i wouldnt been so strapped for cash up there

worst part is i thought everything was sorted so i bought a full festival pass
i guess i should maybe see what their refunding policy is
otherwise im out quite a bit of money :(

squirrelboutique · Post by **squirrelboutique** » Sat Jun 07, 2008 11:16 pm

Is it transferable?

crystalball · Post by **crystalball** » Sat Jun 07, 2008 11:16 pm

Oh no! Boooooo to work forever and ever. I hope you manage to come down on the Saturday, Matt - I'll buy you drinks and cake!

Squirrel-b, July is going to be so ace that you won't remember how to even spell sadface. July!

squirrelboutique · Post by **squirrelboutique** » Sat Jun 07, 2008 11:17 pm

I know!

I'm so stupidly excited I almost can't sleep at night. I will be there in like 18 days!

I'd still love to be in NYC watching Tullycraft with everyone though.

If you can get yourself there on Saturday, Matt, you're sorted for drinks and food with us.
