gotchya, they posted that second news story in there already, probably just a few minutes till they post about vegas on their site, thanks!

[antbach]

Gray, early information for ya:

Package from Boston to Vegas including flight and hotel, depart wednesday, return sunday: lowest price on expedia is $310.85 per person @ Gold Spike Hotel and Casino. For comparison, same at the Golden Nugget is $424. I dont know anything about Vegas so I cant tell ya where these places are. . .

[kindm's]

Jetblue has a a flight out on the 14th of aprill for $99.00. return trip cost depends on the day. If you wait to fly out unitl Tuesday the rates would be $99.00 to Vegas and $99.00 to NYC

roundtrip cost of $198.00 on Jetblue no less. Hotel room depends on what you need but 198.00 round trip is lower than i have ever paid to go out there. Lowest I have ever paid was 215.00

Edited to add this is flying in and out of JFK

[tiedyetoga]

It looks like the MGM Grand will be the hotel i\'m going to stay at. Or the Rio Suites, not sure yet.. Hmm... Decesions... I need to get a head count of everyone who is interested in leaving from NYC.

On a side note, I will not stay in a shitty hotel. We pay more but will be able to sleep at night. MGM Grand has some nice suites for about $750, 4 Nights, plus airfare from NYC.

I will be there and would love to hook up w/ some fellow PB fans. I am down to throw in some $$$$$ for rooms. Finally a little luck this way. Phish In Vegas I do not miss. Seen every show they have played there. Still have not seen a funnier Harpua. 12/6/96? Yodelahewho!!!!!!!
