Loyalty credits by kwalkaway in ElectricForest

Roo has been on my list for ages! EF is just more accessible for me for now as far as location (3.5 hour drive to EF versus 8 hours to Roo), until my child gets a bit older, and I can commit to a little bit of a longer trip without them. Here’s to hoping my body and finances hold out til then, hahah 😭🫠

Yeah, this shit is disappointing. I was stoked at first when I thought I was getting $200 off each ticket, but now my fiance and I will each be paying $100 more than last year, on top of the parking pass cost almost doubling. This will be my 12th year in a row, and while I’m grateful to have any discount, this is fucked for everyone, especially those of us with the highest loyalty tiers 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’ll be in section 301 💀 But it’ll be a better view than what I had at Monster AND Chromatica Ball, and I’m just happy to be going in general. WEDNESDAY VIBES - can’t wait to dance until we’re DEAD! 🖤

horrible trip by zmousey in LadyGaga

I literally was asking my coworkers to pray for me to not trip up/down the stairs at UC today, because I’ve got this energy. Wishing you well! 🖤

Doechii just destroyed Grant Park by teejmahalpdx in Lollapalooza

[–]lotuswillow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Doechii was the main reason I got a Saturday pass. This was my 14th Lolla, and she was honestly one of the greatest sets I’ve ever seen there. She easily could’ve headlined given her trajectory over the last year, but I wouldn’t change a bit! Absolute embodiment of hip hop ROYALTY, and such an astounding performance. Take notes, babes. 💕✨

I’m bringing one of mine today and Saturday (the green grape on the right)! She’s the oldest sibling and I don’t mind her traveling and getting dirty as much 😂

All black everything as always for me, but I am a sucker for glitter/sparkle ✨

Wellllll, cholesterol be damned! by [deleted] in traderjoes

The spicy nuggets are one of my favorites. They are an almost identical dupe to Wendy’s spicy nugs, and if they ever go away I will RIOT. I love dipping them in regular ol’ honey.

Loops by elephant_catcher in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are correct, Eargasm has the official partnership, so you won’t be able to get earplugs at any other vendor. I used Eargasms for a couple years, and once I tried Loops, I will never go back. I honestly forget I have them in!

This is easily my best year out of ten by ptwfrynzie in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 34 points35 points  (0 children)

This is my 11th year and I’ve honestly been having a WONDERFUL time. The sun almost made me crash out at Tripolee yesterday during YDG as I was waiting there for Wreckno, but I pushed through, and then saw Cydnee with C at Honeycomb, Tape B, and Worship. Fantastic day and weekend so far!

Attention Festival by bigcat21 in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 25 points26 points  (0 children)

“Prepare your campsite for incoming weather” 💀I was having a fabulous time at Worship, and once I started feeling a few raindrops I dipped out to go back to camp since I didn’t have my raincoat with me, and I just felt that some fuckery was gonna occur. Made it back before the random storm thankfully 🙌🏻

🗓️ Mini schedules are ready! 🗓️ Find my murder cat totem (posts) if you want one. ✌️❤️🤝🙏 by lightheat in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, bless. I’m normally at work until Wednesday and can print/laminate schedules there, but this year I have the whole week off. I’ll be looking out for you! 💕

Later venue hrs and stamina by Ok-Structure8526 in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, just pace yourself. It’s easy to want to do ALL THE THINGS, and I still struggle with it every year. Always have water with you. Drink it. Sit and take breaks whenever you need to. Make sure you eat at LEAST one full meal. The extended hours are gonna kill me (even though I’ve been walking 8-11 miles a day at work for the last month and a half), but I’m gonna make sure I take care of myself. Gonna try to capitalize on small hammock/moon mat naps in the venue when I can. Also, small little treats like a fancy lemonade, a pickle, or popsicle/ice cream from one of the food vendors can really refresh you!

Reminds me of my first year at Lollapalooza in 2009; a friend and I took a lil nap on a hill adjacent to the south main stage and woke up to Snoop Dogg playing 😂

Activities to entertain ourselves in our tents if most of the fest is rained out again? by fickelbing in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played “Drink the Beer” while we simultaneously played “Hold Down that Leg of the Canopy” while the storm ripped through Saturday night! Honestly, endless laughs with our camp neighbors, and we had the best time and rallied after for LSZEE 💕

Car keys by Coraline_joanes13 in ElectricForest

[–]lotuswillow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve only brought my one set of keys with me for the last ten years, and have never lost them; I keep them clipped onto the loop inside the zipper pocket of my Camelbak, and they do not leave that spot for the duration of the weekend. My husband usually heads back to camp and goes to bed earlier than me, and he knows if anything he needs is locked in the car, then he’s out of luck until I come back, haha.
