Taxi's

[ohsoprissy]

We're planning on taking a taxi from Desert Palms to the festival. Do you think we'll be able to catch a taxi to and from the festival? We're from Arizona so I"m not sure how everything works out there. :D Sorry I'm a newbie!

[sunkisses]

Perhaps the motel/hotel you are staying at could drop off/pick up at Stagecoach? Just a thought!

[ohsoprissy]

I didn't even think of that. Let's hope they will.

My husband and I are staying @ Holiday Inn Express Indio...anybody want to share a taxi Saturday/Sunday?....Not sure if we can get hotel van to drop off,or pick up...maybe if enough people ask???

[Cooter]

getting a ride back is the problem, many taxi's don't even want to deal with the traffic.

[ohsoprissy]

I check the hotel we're staying at and they don't offer shuttles. :mad:

most hotels are miles upon miles away from the festvial...after walking all day in the hot sun the last thing you want to do is walk down a dusty road at 12am.

by the time you hike back to your car you could have walked the 3 miles back to your hotel room. Plus the time it takes to get your car outta there is a good 1/2 hour or so. I can walk 3 miles in about 45 minutes, I typically walk 25 miles a week.

[ohsoprissy]

I'm glad you're so athletic, but my hotel is 12 miles from the festival. I don't think I'm going to be up to walking to and from the festival or getting a dui by driving myself.

[Rose]

hitch hike. I'm sure somebody will give you a safe ride back to your hotel. Lots of nice folks that are more than willing to lend a helping hand.

[Kbug&Shanrock]

since your hotel is not offering a shuttle were they willing to recommend one that you could call to set it up on your own? just a thought... good luck

''Our hotel is in Racho Mirage 11.5 miles from festival - are you in that area? My husband is the DD for this trip and we may have room for 1 or 2 peeps in our SUV. Let me know. I don't see why we culdn't help out some "new friends". send PM :p

Heck, I was going to rent a room for Saturday night so I'm not driving back and forth this weekend but the room rates are outrageous because of Stagecoach...the Super 8 with horrible reviews was getting $209 per night....hells bells

Pitch a darn tent girl!!

[sunkisses]

I don't own one and I'm going alone....

[Kymery]

I got a tent you can borrow! Sleeping bags etc!! Alone is better!!!! brwaaahahahaaaa

[sunkisses]

Amen to that, although I'm not much of a loner....love to kick it up and have fun in a group!

[Kymery]

Oh, come one, you wont be a loner...look at this board,

you and I have met in person already, you can hang our with all of us!

[sunkisses]

Sounds good but am I allowed to go to camping if I just have a GA pass?

[Kymery]

Yes, just buy a $50 forum camping pass, pitch a tent and you can come visit ALL of the camping areas, in and out of the concert etc!! worth the $50 for the whole weekend!!

[sunkisses]

Sounds good but my jacked up neck would protest all weekend even with alcohol on board :)

Ok, now you are just making excuses! I just had back surgery, two levels and moving forward! you can do it. Bring extra pillows

[sunkisses]

Wish I'd thought about it sooner...I don't have to work after 3 p.m. on Wednesday. Would have been fun!

[Kymery]

Its not too late girl

[campnut1]

Hello,

Myself and my wife are also staying in a hotel in Rancho Mirage.

Carpooling may not be a bad idea, drop me an e-mail and let me know if your offer may still be available.

[campnut1]

Funny,

My brother and his wife may make it, he has back stage passes for some band, or bands.

My wife and I are also in the motel 6 in Rancho mirage.

My friend and I are looking into taking a cab too - We are staying at the Esmeralda Resort and Spa in Indio. If your interested let us know!

[tgcali]

FYI Seaparker, all the posts above yours are from last year. Wanted to make sure you knew that if you hadn't noticed.

You should check into prices beforehand. Rumor all over these boards is that a cab will cost you MEGA bucks. Call and see if the resort your staying at offer a "free" shuttle.
