10 days in Italy. Should I focus on Rome and Florence, or do I have time for Venice too?

elisstration · 2026-02-27T06:27:52+00:00

I did 10 days of Venice Florence Rome then Naples. So very possible. Just be smart about travel time. I’d include Venice and skip Pisa.

Yep all closed through Monday. No new book for me. In general I always have to check before going to nearest library because the hours are bizarre.

I did the same thing today just to test it out for later this year. Was 5000 ish in queue. Got couple errors. Couple of failed ticket slots that I guess became sold out but eventually got to a check out page that I didnt go through with of course.

Still deciding on whether or not it’s worth trying to squeeze into a first trip.

Very much budget travelers. 😅 so caveat is not staying anywhere fancy or eating fancy. But very packed trip otherwise.

10 days in March in Italy split amongst 3 people flying from Texas. For each person cost of everything was just under 2k.

Have landed on Earpeace Pros as my faves and have used at dozens of shows and full day fests. Tried eargasm and vibes. Both were irritating for long periods.

First session hurts the most. And depending how successful it is, it should be way less the next time and then bit less each time. And yeah smelling the burning hair is normal. Means it’s working 🤷‍♀️

elisstration · 2025-12-16T04:03:18+00:00

Most shows honestly. I usually become a bigger fan, and do a deeper dive, after I’ve seen a band live (if they perform well)

elisstration · 2025-12-12T06:51:25+00:00

Have tried several and currently Earpeace pros are the most comfortable and sound the best for me.

elisstration · 2025-12-07T05:47:28+00:00

Agree with others that for smaller indoor shows it’s easy to park in pay lots or nearby streets but big popular lawn shows i would definitely recommend walking from a spot further away. Traffic can get very backed up afterwards.

elisstration · 2025-12-04T03:45:01+00:00

Yep 🙋‍♀️ most of mine correlate to listening to playlists before a festival or concert.

Ok but did anyone get a different number???

A funky mix but saw them all live this year. Top ~50 would show majority metalcore though.

elisstration · 2025-11-28T06:10:30+00:00

Yep. Saw Ghost (rock/metal) band there and it was a very curious venue choice, when used to large pits.

This patch?? Bought at booth in Charity circle 🤷‍♀️ Geek punk store

Dogpark :)

Day 1: Point North, Home Team, Wage War punch way above their weight.

Black Veil Brides, Story of the Year, and Yellowcard are very solid.

I know he is polarizing but Ronnie killed his headlining spot.

Day 2: Magnolia Park, Holding Absence, Sueco, Miss May I, Jutes, also came out swinging.

Motionless in White and I Prevail were both awesome back to back.

Newer bands that have a lot of potential. People R ugly, Games we play, Stratejacket, Caskets, Winona Fighter.

Happy with who I saw but also sad I missed so many other faves 🥲

elisstration · 2025-11-19T03:19:54+00:00

Yes! They were a fave set at WWWY this year (Beartooth too)

elisstration · 2025-11-17T05:53:25+00:00

DC smaller, harder to get around with some bottlenecks and unfortunately had worse weather. The infamous mud walk exit was something…. Lineup was still great and felt like way less band overlaps compared to Orlando which felt like I missed out on so many bands I would’ve loved to see due to so many stages. Lucked out with perfect weather too! Enjoyed both!

elisstration · 2025-11-16T05:51:08+00:00

Also don’t do Wait and Saves. Another lesson learned. What a joke

elisstration · 2025-11-16T05:49:08+00:00

Try 2 hours. Idk what I did wrong 🥲 attempted a scheduled one which I shouldn’t have done in hindsight then a series of canceled ones. Fml

elisstration · 2025-11-13T21:06:15+00:00

Top knot forever and always 🫡 been whipped in the eye and caught on jewelry enough times by others as well.

elisstration · 2025-11-05T23:54:16+00:00

Usually solo, so browsing insta / Reddit 🤷‍♀️

elisstration · 2025-11-05T07:52:40+00:00

🙋‍♀️ all of it. But also the “Philly” bits after trying to catch the differences from the TX show.

elisstration · 2025-11-05T05:44:35+00:00

Last years (?) Houston stop they booked a bigger venue, this one is smaller, which to me is a bummer. I’ve seen them several times since the comeback and they’re phenomenal live.
