The woman and I are gonna be going Thursday to see Nonpoint at 6 on the JJO stage. Then probably hang out for a bit and see how it is this year. Not sure of other days we'll be going yet, there's a few bands I'd like to see but don't know if we're going. I.e Sevendust on Friday, Alkaline Trio the 2nd, Seether the 4th(but I think we'll be up north) and some other random stuff I'd like to see.

Who else is going? Figure if there's enough people we could meet up, hang out, do whatever there is to do. I know there's a pull up contest thing by the USMC booth... BCM Pull up contest?? lol

I am going to try to go for the fireworks if I can convince Adam to go. He hates crowds and hates Summerfest, but I looooooooooooove fireworks, so that should overrule everything he hates.

I ain't going! Too damn old for that shit. Pay high prices for the privilege of paying for high priced beer and high priced food and dealing with the asshats that show up. I know hearing your favorite band live is cool but bummerfest has outlived its appeal to me.

i kinda agree with you. stuff there is too expensive, cept i go for the motzo sticks from saz's (yes i know i can get them all year round at a saz's) and yes, im fat and love motzo sticks :) but of course the main reason i go is for the music.

I had a full 1.75 of captain in my pants one year. I walked up to the gate and the guy looked down and of course I had a huge bulge in my croch. Well he said let me search you real quick I said ok and he just patted down my pockets. Whats he gonna say?? Whats that huge bulge in your croch.

Just make sure you clean out the bottles really well... considering what eyedrops do to you if you drink that sh1t at all... that would not make for a good time at summerfest... :goof

Deggy, still on for Nonpoint?

You've gotta give it up for the Zippo/WJJO stage. I mean they've got Nonpoint and Drowning Pool on the same stage on the same day

It really is a kick ass year for Summerfest if you like rock. :headbang

Here's some of the bands I wish I could check out: Nonpoint, Drowning Pool, Sevendust, Candlebox, Filter, Stone Temple Pilots, Five Finger Death Punch, Seether, and oh so many more :D

Because I know that all of you just NEED to know the bands that some guy that you don't even know would like to see :rolf

Not as good as the show in Madison.. but always good! That stage sucks too with the flat bleachers.. no room to move around or you fall off the damn bench.

Is the US Cellular stage any good? I'd like to see Shinedown tonight.

Since I'm a n00b, is there anything else to do at Summerfest (besides drink)? Just wondering how early to get there. Someone told me once you leave you can't get back in.

Car Guy
06-28-2008, 01:38 PM
^^^ I guess it depends on your definition of 'good' but I think Summerfest in general is GREAT, and we are lucky to have it here in Milwaukee. Sure people will complain about something here and there but most wouldn't be happy if they didn't have something to b!tch about.....:durr

As far as how early to get there is up to you, but I know this is there re-entry policy: Wristbands to leave and re-enter the festival are available at all gate areas from Noon until 6:30 pm daily. Re-entry wristbands will be valid for a single, same day re-entry until 7:00 pm. No re-entry wristbands will be issued after 6:30 pm and no re-entries after 7:00 pm.

If you've never been down there just go and check it out, you have to experience it to really see what it's all about. You may like it you may not, but you won't know if you don't go.....:thumbsup

Oh and my wife was telling me about these people that work for miller that all there job is, is to go to summerfest and drink and make sure the bartenders aren't given away free beer. So pretty much you just get paid to drink and eat food and hang out all day. Anyone know how I can get this job???

seriously though they do have that. I guess theres a black line on the beer cups to where they CANNOT fill it over that line. Thats basically what they look for. And like I said checking to make sure none of the employees are giving out free beers to their friends.
