Is there any other rituals or superstitions? rookies ALWAYS give away half their beer to their neighbor.

Yeah I just keep a sleeping bag and lantern and tent and shit in my car, so it's a bit of an overstatement, but it does have me giddy seeing it now.

I'm starting to gather everything I bought for this trip, and looking at the size of it, and the size of my car.... I'm a bit worried. I can fit it all, it just might be tight.

I can fit it all, it just might be tight. heyooo. (sorry. That was inappropriate.) I'm concerned about space, too. Perhaps a discussion better reserved for the girly thread, I am notorious about overpacking. This year, however, I'm going to try very hard to only pack what I truly need, especially since we're flying. Here's hoping.

I have a problem with underpacking, usually. I'm always missing shit.

I've been yearning for this break from reality for a long time now. Especially since I skipped Coachella this year. I need a music festival dose at least once a year to stay sane, and I'm long overdue. Can't wait to lay my eyes on the gorge for the first time!

I know for a fact that I'm going to overpack. Cat, I'll post my camping list tonight or tomorrow in the girly thread.

Definitely just had part of one of my teeth break off while eating, get this, a cheesesteak of all things! No nerve is exposed so it isn't painful but now I am terrified to chew anything on the right side of my mouth lest I break it even more. Not only that, its t-minus 1 week or so till Squatch and my health insurance most likely doesn't cover any of the dentists in Boise since it is based in Maryland and I am in Boise

I am excited because I have met so many awesome people on here and I will finally get to meet all of you that want to party with good ole SWITCH! I am equally excited because Sasquatch marks a transition between living in a shitty college town and moving to Portland, so I will use the festival as a way to unwind and just fucking celebrate. Finally I am equally excited because my favorite band of all time will be performing on the main fucking stage of the best concert venue in the world! I must go now because I just peed my pants.

I'm super excited. I head out on Friday for Seattle, and I already did a "practice pack" to see how things will fit in the trunk of the car (did I mention I'm nerdy and excited).
Rest assured, there is plenty of space for the glowsticks, not to mention the hard-sided hat case that is very important this year (though I can't imagine why). Yippee!

I'm incredibly excited to go to my last major North American music festival before moving to Scotland, and to have one last great Man-venture with my best friend before I leave. That and seeing all of my sasquatch friends from years past , maybe some new ones from here, random dance parties on the campground roadways, and dancing my ass off.

I've already started packing, too! And I'm supposed to be writing a paper but I can't get off this board. Sasquatch is going to kill my GPA. I hate the quarter system.
For some reason I can't seem to remember if an athletic sized duffle bag is small enough to be a carry on. Does anyone know?

22 x 14 x 9 is the standard.

You clearly haven't flown recently. I see people taking ridiculously large crap as carry on bags all the time, now that the airlines nickle and dime you for checked bags. I personally think those people are being somewhat douchy, but then again so are the airlines.
I really shouldn't be saying this, but here's a tip if you want to try it: If you know your carry on is oversized, get a window seat as far back on the plane as you can so you board first, and cram that fucker in an overhead bin as fast as you can once you're on the plane.

emptyfox, I was directing my reply to barrelofthepen, not you sorry. Should have quoted her as I didn't count on you replying before I did.
