Who's arriving Thursday?

[moondancer]

I know it's early in the planning stages, but who's planning on getting there Thursday evening? I know I am planning to at this point. Maybe some of us could meet up then?

[peppas]

I'm always about the early bird. I'll do whatever it takes to get there and have camp all set up on Thursday. Think about the traffic, on Friday, at the tolls, all the way through Maine, on their busiest weekend of the year...


...Not to mention missing some good music and getting to know your neighbors!! Lotus throws down some pretty good livetronica stuff. I saw them Halloween in Burlington a few years ago. It's a dance party.

Sum it up. Thursday is a must!

At every fest we go to, Molly and I usually stay at a hotel relatively close Wednesday night so we can be there bright and early Thursday morning. We'll be doing the same for Nateva.

Anybody know when they'll be letting people in on Thursday. Best part of that first day is getting set up nice and early and then wandering around figuring out where everything is so you can make it back to camp when you might not be in the greatest shape later on.

Ill def be there. Hoping I can do some help setting up and be able to grab a sweet camping spot up near the head of the race track!!

[liveyoursong]

I'll be there Thursday afternoon. I as well am an early bird, trying to beat the rush. Always like to get set up, then walkabout, meeting new friends & hopefully finding some old.

According to the Nateva site they will start letting people in around 4pm Thursday. I have to work that day, but am planning to leave early and see what I can do about getting to the site between 4 and 5. Set up, relax, wander and meet and greet with people.

I definitely plan on arriving Thursday. Avoid traffic, set up and have time to chill... And I am certainly not missing Lotus !

[velvetc]

I'll be a Thursday arrival as well. I can't think of any reason at all you'd want to cut a day off of a festival. Maybe the best part of a festival is arriving early, getting camp set up, lighting up for the first time, and just relaxing and watching the cars pull in. And I certainly will not be missing Lotus.

I wonder if Lotus will be the only band that day? I assume since they're the "Thursday headliner" that means there will be other bands before them. Probably none after though.

Gates at 4pm. Watch twitter once that is up and running for updates though. Often these type of things get started early and that would be up on Twitter as soon as it happens

[djinnandjuice]

we'll be getting there as early as they let us on Thursday...if you see our ugly mugs (reference the post yo mug thread), feel free to stop by and say hi

[millennium101]

I wish I could, but I have a non-camping pass.

[andrew]

I will absolutely be there on Thursday. Pick a prime campsite, wander around, and of course LOTUS

[rustyshackleford]

I'll be there Thursday, figured its worth the 20 bucks for a good site near the music. But the more I read the more excited i am for Lotus, never heard of them before, but everyone says they put on a good show. should be sweet

You, my friend, have some very good shows on the horizon.

[rustyshackleford]

Yeah, it should be a sweet summer. Nateva is gonna be my first fest ever, pretty psyched.

[pruyn09]

oh yeah gonna get up by 3-4 hopefully, got a big crew to work with and none of us wanna miss lettuce+lotus.

[moondancer]

Those of us who are planning for Thursday should get together before one of the shows or something - a pre-Infoteva meet up. Yeah, that's it.

[natman]

we're gonna try but we need to line up an extra day of babysitting.

[velvetc]

Setting up camp in a good spot > cracking open the first beer > watching others pull in > meeting neighbors > toke > another beer > watch Nateva come alive > wander around a bit > Gypsy Tailwind > Lettuce > Lotus > wander around > relax at camp thinking about three more full days of this

Seems like a nice little setlist for Thursday. I won't miss it!

[iamwelting]

We'll be getting there around 5 or so I think, can't leave till after work. Really excited for the music that day, plus I've never been to a fest on Thursday

[velvetc]

Can you even imagine sitting at home at 8:00 on Thursday night thinking about being at a festival and listening to music but...BEING SOMEWHERE ELSE?!?!?!?!? How does such a tragedy even occur?

[thedemon]

i'll be there (i hope) before thursday to help out if help is needed. if not i should be there Thursday a few hours before gates open.

[natman]

We got our baby sitting lined up and me and my crew will be there on thursday afternoon. WE are hooping to ge there at four when the gates open.

[thehorseseyes]

Def going up on Thurs for sure, hoping to be at gate when it opens...

[mojo4395]

I'll be there Thursday as long as I can get a ride from the airport Wednesday night! Any help on that is much appreciated (I'll be posting about this until I get my ride situation figured out, so be forewarned...)
