I missed this whole thread...wtf?  I would love to go, have always wanted to go...last year looked real hot, esp. with Claypool...but this year (08)...hothothot...YMSB, Galactic, DSO...mmmm, should be about vacation time by then too (paid vacation!!@!!!!!)....have either of you been?

yeah, i had been keeping it in the back of my mind for the fiance and i, but since my relationship came to a screeching halt...i could afford to go by myself.  i'm sure i'd be surrounded by brand new friends.  that lineup do look awful yummy....maybe my son could spend a week at "camp grandma's"
