7am? Damn, that means I leave my pad at 6am to get there on time for this...

Why so early, Mike? Doesn't start until 11am, right?

I believe the reason for leaving early is so you guys won't have to sit in traffic and as L suggested come early so you guys can setup and have a good parking.

True dat, it would be missing a lot of the L.A. traffic. Good parking is a good point too. Hmmm...maybe I'll just head over to my best friend's pad on Friday night and crash out there. He lives in Ladera Ranch (I think that's what it is called) and it's only a few minutes away from the Spectrum.

Alright, so I guess it's looking like it'll be a little too complicated to get an initial caravan going to the Spectrum, so you can count me in.

I know 7:00 am is early but Id rather get up and enjoy our drive than sit in the f'in Del Mar Summer Vacation from Hell Traffic. We tried to caravan down on the 21st to Ski Beach and it was a cluster fck. We will get there a little early and maybe grab some breakfast and then meet up with the SD crew.
