Okay, this is to discuss two shows in Springfield, Missouri. Date: Thursday October 16 Time: 6-8? pm Place: Park Central Library, Springfield, Missouri Bands: Michael Holt, Grace Bentley, SSLYBY Date: Friday October 17 Time: 9 pm 8:00PM Place: The Outland (1st floor), Springfield, Missouri Bands: Michael Holt, Go Kart Mozart, SSLYBY Meghan, whatever you do, don't fly to Chicago (especially O'Hare) if you're on an schedule to go anywhere else. Traffic on the highways around it are usually at a crawl, and it is notorious for delays and canceled flights. I've been there a few times and have a friend who works there about one week a month for his job.

hm, i'll need to move my dentist appointment on the 18th if i go to this.
i messaged sara about this, but i need some idea about what would happen if i flew into detroit. is the drive on the 15th or the 16th? if possible, can i show up the day before and someone pick me up at the airport? also, i might not drive back with you guys and just catch a flight in kansas city, mo saturday...that way i can at least go back to my job on sunday

Hey Meghan and Carl, I sent you both a message about the possible road trip cool thanks. i think my only major problem (besides telling my folks and canceling my wisdom teeth removal appointment) is if someone will fetch me in detroit and if someone could drop me off at the kansas city airport saturday morning (sarahw, I pmed you about that)

Yea, picking you up at the Detroit airport won't be a problem. (A thought: while looking at prices, check flights to Flint. Sometimes, it's cheaper.)
Like I said in my PM reply to sara, I'm going to try and make sure all the suspect sounds and such are not ones to be worried about. And I really have to see how much room my trunk has at the moment because I would love to be able to keep my bike in there for Springfield travel.
So I can properly ask for time off work: Trip is Wednesday 15th - Saturday 18th? As in, we'd be back late Saturday night/early Sunday morning? Or will the drive back be split like the drive down and we get back the 19th?

Ok so I have Detroit squared away (Thanks Carl!) I looked into Flint, it's more expensive. I can take AirTran for $100 into Detroit, the cheapest I found for Flint was $144. The AirTran flight arrives into Detroit at 11:30 a.m. if, y'know, everything is on time...
is the Outland 21+ i'm still bloody 20, but I know SSLYBY was able to sneak me into a Philly 21+. Michael Holt could probably do the same for me. Is it a strict venue/should I be worried?

I think maybe split the driving on into leaving springfield saturday, and getting back into Michigan early sunday morning....I feel like 13 hours for one day is just hard any way you look at it.... but if you can't get sunday off then we could do it.....I haven't talked to Laurel yet but I don't know if she'll come or not...probably not because she takes school more seriously than I do...hah. She actually lives in Logan Square in Chicago. .....p.s. bike rack?

Ah! I so wish I was going with you guys!
I couldn't go to the Outland show, because I'm only 16, but I could go to the library. It would be so perfect because I don't have school but I know my dad won't want to drive 4-5 hours to get there. Mainly because he just took me to the Covington show which was 4 hours away just in July. I think I want to tell Michael Holt though when I see him on the 14th to tell Phil hi for me.

I wish I could, but I am taking the PSAT the day after the Michael Holt show, and it really counts this year.
Why does school have to get in the way of everything???
THAT WOULD BE SO AWESOME IF I COULD!!!!!

I don't think it would be a problem but we should definetely ask before assuming it can happen that easily. I wouldn't worry too much....

Bike rack: I don't have one. You know, because it's a folding bike, I wouldn't think I need one. Haha
Nah, splitting up the drive back won't be a problem. I just wanted to know for sure what I needed to ask for. You'll have to ask Phil or Michael before hand if you can be snuck into the Outland. In fact, this is probably something that needs to be looked into now since sara is also 20. I'm the only one that doesn't need to sneak in. It wouldn't make sense to go down for two shows and not be able to go to one.

The show at the outland is on the first floor though so it might be different since it's not at the bar on the second floor? who knows.

If it's where I'm thinking, I don't remember where I drank in Springfield, the first floor is also a bar. edit Yep, I've been there. Downstairs is a bar. You can see pictures of the place at their myspace. (Mainly in Halloween 2007 but My Photos has... something).

I'll try to remember my camera. I'm really bad about that. Right now, just have to see the response about getting Meghan and Sara into the second show.
