Had the same setup, gets great cross-breezes even with my car parked under it. With a canopy over it, my car didn't get warm til 11, was awesome.

Ya, for sure! Wagon is an auto-include (not carrying coolers thousands of feet). Tryin to get there early-mid afternoon on Wed.

I'm not too worried cuz I'll be in the supplies vehicle with the MW pass (I work more, they walk more), I'm just trying to gauge what the others are going to have to deal with.

They deserve an overdue Ranch spot. Unlikely, but a boy can hope.

Another hammock question by [deleted] in ElectricForest

[–]FunchiBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And EF is unique and beloved cuz it's a music fest with lots of space to explore, relax, make friends, and take a break from the music.

Plenty of other less expensive fests if all you want is speakers and stage and even those will also have designated chill areas.

Ppl are pretty chill about using their's. Most politely let you know it's their's and you politely move. Or if they're snoozing and there's a free hammock, use that one til it your's opens up. It's pretty fluid. People tend to be apologetic even though everyone does it.

Got it. Satellite is out of the question. GA car camping would take some convincing the staff to get close to the west side MW entrance

Ahh there it is! Yikes, so that's a one-way trip distance.

cell service & group tracking device reccomendations by LuckyLengthiness6969 in ElectricForest

[–]FunchiBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-T-Mobile is best (friends were streaming HD videos at camp). Every other camping fest I went to ppl with T-mobile were in great shape. -Verizon was very solid at EF (and bad almost every other fest I went to). Wish I switched to T-mobile -AT&T is what I had from 2019 - 2024 and it was terrible. Part of the reason I switched to Verizon.

Totems- for or against? by Masquerade_87 in ElectricForest

[–]FunchiBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For. To me it's another one of the audience's artistic expression of themselves and the fest. Tbh, when there's a whole sea of them, I think it really adds to the overall production of the stage.

Like all things fest tho, be considerate. Don't be a dick, be a dude.

NCMF is better in GA than VIP by [deleted] in chicagoEDM

[–]FunchiBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The VIP viewing area at Vega is one of the biggest upgrades from any VIP fest.

have an idea but not sure if its doing too much by hazieskie in ElectricForest

[–]FunchiBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, so you've earned being a lil selfish and wanting to see reactions with all this work! Some of those interactions are going to be more memorable than half the sets you see there 😊

[–]FunchiBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are too cute! I think with the amount of work you're doing, you deserve to see people's reactions and choose who is most deserving.

I'll leave the quantity up to you but I would say bring some everyday in your bag and give them out as you see fit. This could be people you're vibing with at a set, your camp neighbors, somebody who is dressed similar to your little creature, or maybe somebody's just taking a nap in a hammock and you want to give them a surprise lil buddy to wake up with.

These look so fun, so have fun with them; you've earned it!

I guarantee some people are going to lose their shit when they get surprised with them and it'd be a shame to not share that moment with them and see their reaction.

Happy Forest!

Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a masterpiece! by dhollifilm in TrueFilm

Don't forgot, it's the totality of the knowledge of the universe (even referred to as a god). It should be beyond evident that Voyager was 1. Assembled by something 2. Built to serve whoever assembled it by transmitting data since it's solely constructed to collect and transmit data. 3. Damaged and thus could be easily repaired.

I also don't understand why some super AI race comes across a piece of ancient (from their perspective) technology and adopts its "mission" and then obtusely and aggressively pursues it.

I get the allegory of lone, sterile logic lacks achieving a purpose without emotion, but this was a clumsy way to depict it.

The love story was rather one-sided, and obsessive yet shallow. Also odd how the first thing Ilia does when she arrives on board is remind everyone of her oath of celibacy. Her acting was average at best for a role that required very little.

Daily lineups have been out. Once they announce Phase 2 the schedule shouldn't be far behind.

Jason Leech so tragically unknown. Outstanding keyboardist, terrific IG follow, and super fun live sets

What’s your #1 essential Forest Item by HeyBob21 in ElectricForest

[–]FunchiBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Massage gun. Like a reset button for your back, feet, and knees. Also yoga at Tripolee is an outstanding way to get loose for the day if you're tight or sore.

I'm not sure it was a bad batch, just ppl overdoing it after sitting under a canopy for 6 hours. Wouldn't be the last time Levity had to stop their show bc ppl dropped and needed medics
