Want to go to WMC, but short on $$$$

I really want to go this year!! I was going to go last year and participate in the Dj mix off, but was never able to get the $$$.

Anyway, anybody got any ideas/suggestions.

I know a bunch of people are going from Atlanta and I don't know if anyone is caravaning or renting a van to save gas money and money on hotels, but I'm down for whatever.

I just want to go.

well, here's what I know so far...

people for sure driving down:
me, emil, scott, leeann, and jack... both emil and jack have offered to drive, and could probably each fit 4 including themselves comfortably for the ride down.

a few other people have expressed interest, but nothing seems that concrete yet. hopefully we'll be able to work something out, where everyone that wants to go can go don't be too worried about it, we'll try to line something up.

as for hotels, i'm not really sure what's going on yet. we've talked about renting a condo/apartment or something, but again, that's up in the air, and may cost a fair amount of money...

Well, I guess we do have a little time before everything would need to be set in stone.

I know I won't have a ton of money to take with me, so if I can ride along and put in my share of gas and the hotel or whatever, then I might actually be able to go.

I guess we'll see what pans out over the next month or so.

What do you think about renting a van??? We could get twice the people in 1 vehicle. I guess it just depends on what the van would cost.

Hey, since I'm 25, I'm old enough to rent a luxury vehicle. I could get us a Range Rover so we could ride out in style.... Probably costs too much.

In general Miami and especially Conference Week is no time to be short on cash. Theres really no way around spending $$$$$ if you wanna see the best the WMC has to offer....

So true. Unfortunate but true. Perhaps a good promotional slogan for Miami tourism can be "Miami: don't forget the vaseline!" Oh well... On the positive side, it will be a kick ass experience
