Hey, my Motorollas have something called an "Interference Eliminator Code." Is that the same thing as the "privacy code" you mentioned???Yes. If I'm on channel 12 with code 34 and you're on channel 12 with code 33, I won't hear your transmissions and you won't hear mine. Only radios using the same channel and code will hear each other. If I put my radio on scan though, it will find all active transmissions on all channels and codes.

I'm staying in Brookfield, so hopefully things are pretty convienent, I've never been to WI before.

Brookfield is a beautiful area west of the City of Milwaukee. About 45 minutes from Alpine....pm or e-mail me for anything specific, i grew up in milwaukee and will be going home for both shows

[LovinDmb]

Hye Brian, you going to San Fran?

EDIT: just saw it in your sig, right on.......

:BANG fuckin college:BANG

[bdb23]

Hye Brian, you going to San Fran?
Yeah. Got the tickets yesterday. I'm spending a few days down in LA before the concert and then driving up. And you?

[LovinDmb]

And you?



:BANG fuckin college:BANG

yeah I REALLY REALLY WANT to but Northern IL's business program is a bitch to catch up on if you even miss a couple days. I reluctantly will have to pass and cry the whole night as I did last year for CP:(

Brookfield is in Waukesha county which comprises the western suberbs of Milwaukee. It really shouldn't take more than 30 minutes (w/light traffic) to get from Brookfield to downtown Mil-town. I grew up there and never toured the breweries just drank the products, but I believe Miller is on the near north side of Milwaukee, check the Phone book.....If you have a chance I say visit Water Street (bring cash gets kinda pricey) and Tour Sprecher Brewery (most popular beer in Milwaukee among the twenty-something crowd


Anything else lemme know

[Crush me Grey]

which night is generally better at alpine--1st or 2nd?

i only have tickets to the 1st night and im waay bummed not to be going to both..

Wish I could help....driving up Friday and coming back Monday

[Crumbo]

Well my flight would get in at 2:21pm Saturday at O'Hare. Know anyone who can help??

no I don't :(

if you get an earlier flight...let me know....I can pick you up at O'Hare because it's right on the way for me:)

I can't do the Saturday trip (going up on Friday) but I may be able to help you on on the Sunday trip.

[JanelleM]

Yeah the two flights I have to choose form are horrible. I either get in Friday night (which is perfect) and have to catch a 6:45am flight back to Phoenix Monday morning (which has me leaving Alpine around 2:30 am) OR I get in Saturday afternoon (and everyone will already be up there) and leave late Monday (which is perfect). Different airlines or else I would mix and match trust me...

[JanelleM]

Do you plan on leaving after the show Sunday??

I'm doing the Premier lot on Sunday just for that very reason. No messing around after the show.

Try cheaptickets.com. I see $224 for Delta out of PHX with one stop.

[EatSleepJeep]

Orbitz uses a system that the more times a fare is accessed it perceives that as increased demand and raises the rates. A supposedly intelligent system that penalizes the indecisive. Bullshit.

On a better note: The printers has supplied me with the final artwork. It looks good and the shirts will be ready friday. Shirts will ship tuesday.

To everyone that ordered a shirt, I'll be including a card good for 100 free digital photo prints from sony imagestation. It was a promotion we ran at work that bombed. You do not need to buy a Sony Cybershot to get them(like the card says). This way we'll all have a place to upload our Alpine photos for sharing, and everyone will be able to get a bunch of professional free prints.

Girl, rent yourself a car and get your bootie on the freeway as soon as you get off that plane! Drive like a Chicagoan (but watch out for the WI State Troopers). Don't check your baggage. Don't stop for cheese or fireworks or beer. No potty breaks either, they've got ones in the lot.

We'll have a cold one waiting for you...:)

Between the cell phones and the radios we should be pretty well connected, eh?

Imagine how the Deadheads did all this coordinating and planning for shows back in the days before cell phones, internet, etc.! They must have used smoke signals. :D

[Crumbo]

have u ever sat there?
it front row in the whole section and there is only 5 seats in the whole row so i dont know what the angle will be like?

I sat 3 or 4 rows back from there in 1999 and didn't like it......the angle and the speakers will obstruct your view slightly.....because you are in the 2nd row and there are only 5 seats in that row it's not too bad

[liog_dmb]

Anyone staying in Brookfield....do you want to go for lunch on Friday? I work in Brookfield and have been a life long Milwaukee resident so I can pretty much answer any more questions people may have.

EDIT: Oops...forgot E.T. :monkey

:eek: 2:21 @ O'Hare!? On a summer Saturday afternoon in Chicago!?

Girl, rent yourself a car and get your bootie on the freeway as soon as you get off that plane! Drive like a Chicagoan (but watch out for the WI State Troopers). Don't check your baggage. Don't stop for cheese or fireworks or beer. No potty breaks either, they've got ones in the lot.

We'll have a cold one waiting for you...:)
You officially have me scared. Are you saying traffic is going to be horrible? I think I have a ride lined up so don't scare them off. Shhh. Well it was either that or no Alpine at all :(

[JanelleM]

Oh and I am only 22 so I can't rent a car :(

[bdb23]

You'll get there in time to maybe see the openers but no real tailgating. It will take you about 2-3 hours to get there on a Saturday during summer.

*hopes that didn't scare your ride off*

Anyone have any tips for an Alpine first-timer with lawn tickets? Maybe what time I should get there if I want to be as close as possible? Certain lots to avoid, or just any overall hints? Thanks.

Lots open at 1pm. Gates open at 4pm. There will be a mad dash for the front part of the lawn right at 4pm but they'll start lining-up for the gates well before that. The lawn at Alpine is pretty sweet. Not too many bad places except behind speaker/light poles. You should be good to get a nice spot if you head in around 5 or 5:30pm. Even as the openers are on, you'll be able to get a decent spot.

I was at the show last year and din't see one cop anywhere. A coupla high school security guards but no big deal. If your really that worried go get a 24 ounce plastic water bottle from target. the hole is big enough to put in ice, it's got a cap to shake it up, and the integrity is much better than a mcdonalds cup......

Well, like any other venue, they can decide what activities are allowed in their parking lots. Because Alpine has the best lot scene, they probably just decided to "discourage" tailgating but ultimately allow it.

A quick update on shirts, all 25 are spoken for, and most are paid for. If anyone backs out, then there may be more available, but that won't happen until the lots.

The Guys' Rules

We always hear "the rules" from the female side. Now here are
the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note...
these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!

1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put
it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us
complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the
tides. Let it be.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think
of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every
question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it.
That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a
doctor.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In
fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't
expect us to act like soap opera guys.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of
the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you
want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do
it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during
commercials.

1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions and neither do
we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a
Vegetable. We have no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act
like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth
the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an
answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is
fine...Really.

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are
prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation, or
monster trucks.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round is a shape.

1. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on
the couch tonight; but did you know men really don't mind that? It's
like camping.

I WILL have 1000 posts before alpine, and this is as close to padding my count as I'll get.
Looks like Jamon may be able to pull the feat off, too. I don't think WendyBeth has it in her to get it done b/4 Alpine. :p

:monkey <--- "I want to post."

A quick update on shirts, all 25 are spoken for, and most are paid for. If anyone backs out, then there may be more available, but that won't happen until the lots. You'll have to find the Jeep there. It's green & tan. The Iowa license plate says DMBLIVE. It'll most likely be at the south end of the yellow lot.

Thanks for the update!!!

OK WendyBeth;
A lossy format is a file type that loses some file information during compression and extraction. MP3 & WMA are lossy. In order to obtain a smaller file size, certain frequencies and sounds are eliminated or reduced to achieve easy transfer. That's why MP3 files will never sound as good as the original. Anyone who thinks MP3 are the same as CD quality is wrong. And deaf.

Formats like SHN are loss-less. They lose no file information during compression and extraction. THis is a better format for purist, like myself.


As a side note: I'll be going to Alpine this year unemployed. I quit my job of three years today. The last year and a half has been hell. It's so bad that I'm the VETERAN of my department. My last day is 8/5. It'll be a liberating weekend. My new job starts on the 11th. Yeah, baby.

holy shit man a crazy storm just moved through here and dumped a shitload of hail and is still poring rain. good luck to those east and south of CO you are in for a helluva storm.

Sorry WB, Jargon is a way of life.

file information - the digital information that makes up the song
compression - making a cd track smaller
extraction - making it back into a cd file that can be read by a regular cd player
WMA - windows media file(music)
frequencies - soundwaves(high notes - high frequency)(bass notes - low frequency)
transfer - sharing "one transfers files from Kazaa"

I hope it comes here :(

Matt & Brian:

Thank you both for the computer lesson, really. :hug I actually learned something! I was honestly expecting you guys to tell me that "LOSSY" was a typo and was supposed to have read "lousy" format!

Maybe, just maybe, by Alpine '05 I won't need a glossary in order to understand what you guys are talking about half the time! :)

Thay are pretty good actually. I saw them last year at Luther's Blues in Madison. The lead singer sounds kinda like dave, and from a distance kinda resembles him too. As far as the band goes, they played well, and they seemed to do things a little different than DMB at least in terms of soloing and stuff. I think they are gonna be at Luther's again once school starts back up so I'll probably check them out again in September.
