    Does this means that nothing will happen at the Riptide ?

    I already booked a cheap bed at the Holywood beach suites and hostels, not easy to find something reasonable when you travel alone.

    Are there any hostels on that other beach or does anyone want to share a room? I don't want to pay more than 100$ per night.

    If the page doesn't work, you need a FB friend to invite you. Go ahead and friend request Dorothy, that's what I did last year. She's just trying to keep randos out.

    There's nothing official planned at Riptide yet, but a lot of people are still staying down in Hollywood. We just can't have a huge party there like last year. Probably what will happen is people will share some shuttles to get to the main party. Maybe Dorothy will organize something, but even if she doesn't, it's pretty easy to grab some other cruisers and split a cab or something.

    Yeah if I know that others will be there it's gonna be easier.

    There probably will be some around there. I arrive on the 2nd, so I'll have time to find people.

    The party is definitely open to everyone. The tiki bar is open to the public, as far as I can tell, but they are definitely expecting our party.

    She's admin of the group "70,000 tons in ft. Lauderdale". Request to join the group and send her a PM so she knows you're not a bot. Or, if you have any friends already in the group, they can add you too.
    I'm only here to do two things: play the bagpipes and gargle sulphuric acid. Looks like we're almost out of acid.

    I used airbnb this year, stayed with a very nice couple at Dania Beach for just shy of 50 USD per night, not walking central, but not that far by bus or taxi either.

    Unless you really need to stay central to the action.


    Are you in for this February, Gnoff??

    So Dorothy accepted me on Facebook but said she has limited invites left and that I would need to get an invite from someone else. This is my first time going to 70k and I'm going solo to this, so I was curious if anyone would be able to send me an invite possibly?

    Ditto on the invite. I've posted twice in the last several weeks asking for an invite but so far no luck. So if someone reading this could send me an invite I would really, really appreciate it. My name on Facebook is "Brick Hardmeat". Don't ask.

    Searched for you on FB but amazingly enough there is more than one "Brick Hardmeat" out there :lol: :lol: Send me a private message on this forum with a link to you facebook page and I will friend request you on facebook which will allow me to add you to the beach party group/event. Any member of this group is able to add other friends to the group.

    This goes for everyone else that is asking here as well. Just shoot me a PM with a link to your FB page and we'll get the wheels turning on getting you added to the event page.

    ^^ Same here. Name is "Paul W. Cashman" on FB.

    Always good to have more boat friends!
    I just got off a "regular" (and really inexpensive) cruise and our roll-call group of 'boat friends' was awesome...and even included a metal band from western Virginia. (!)
    We had a pre-cruise party a little south of where the 2016 beach party will be...really cool place called Bahia Cabana, but it's a little too small for 800 metalheads. :bangers:

    This will be my first ever 70k, and I'm going by myself. I didn't even consider there may be things going on beforehand, for some reason. I'd love to come and meet some people beforehand, if you guys don't mind me sending some friend requests? My name on FB is Sara Tonin. There's actually a lot of people on FB with that name apparently but mine is a picture of me with the words "black sheep" on my back. I look forward to hopefully meeting you guys :)

    Welcome to the madness! Lots of Denver folks. There is no stortage of events going on beforehand.
    *BeachParty in FtLauderdale by the Sea
    *There is always a precruise concert put on by Donn ( Captain Metal) that usually has a cruise band--great way to meet and greet
    * Brewery get togethers, and we did a Pirate Ship cruise to a Pirate Bar(and completely drank them dry) :pound:
    * Or, you can just relax on the beach...
    After the cruise, lots of people leave the same day, I stay an extra day to recoup..!

    Welcome to the madness! Lots of Denver folks. There is no stortage of events going on beforehand.
    *BeachParty in FtLauderdale by the Sea
    *There is always a precruise concert put on by Donn ( Captain Metal) that usually has a cruise band--great way to meet and greet
    * Brewery get togethers, and we did a Pirate Ship cruise to a Pirate Bar(and completely drank them dry) :pound:
    * Or, you can just relax on the beach...
    After the cruise, lots of people leave the same day, I stay an extra day to recoup..!


    Thank you! I'm really glad I decided to hop on the forums, because I really would have missed out on a lot of pre-cruise fun ^_^ I figured I'd be able to meet people on the boat, but it sounds like much more fun to get to know some people beforehand. :mrgreen:

    Getting to know some of the forumites is indeed a good and easy way to get so much more out of the cruise. I wasn't too active on the forum before the first cruise, and even if I did meet lots of nice people on the cruise and the pre-party (what was the dive bar in downtown Miami called?), it was way too easy to just hang out with all the Finns on the boat. After the cruise I became more active on the forum and by the second 70k knew most (if not all) of the regulars and by the time I got to Miami, meeting everyone face to face felt like a family reunion.

    It is quite funny when people at gigs or festivals in Europe come up to me and ask if I'm Memnoch or, better yet, say "Hey, you're the girlie metal guy!", because they know me from this forum (or from the facebook groups). Oh, well, I only have myself to blame for that. :lol:

    All the Finns I've ever been fortunate enough to meet have indeed been very easy to hangout with! I actually spent a few days earlier this year following Nightwish on tour and they were some of the nicest, most humble people I've met.
    I'm trying to be more active on the forum to really get to know people beforehand, and so far everyone seems really friendly and helpful. This is actually my first ever venture outside of the US, so I'm really excited for that and it seems like getting to know people now can only make it even more fun. Besides, I think all my friends that aren't going are getting quite bored of hearing how excited I am, at least I know here everyone else is excited too :P

    This'll be my first ever 70K. While I have a lot of friends going on the cruise (two of whom I'm rooming with), I'm just peachy about getting to know a lot of people from all over the world leading up to February. Really looking forward to meeting you all

    Oh, the beach is private?

    Cool. No cops showing up freaked out by 3000 random metalheads this time.

    I can't wait for the cruise this year... I'm starting to get antsy.

    I personally jumped on the board as soon as I knew I was going on my first cruise, because I personally didn't know anyone who goes to these things. Good thing, too, because I've had the experience of traveling to festivals and it's a little overwhelming to not know anybody there.

    This year I might have a local friend coming down, but from finding out about the parties on this board and then going, I've met a lot of people who I know will be on the cruise again.

    Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the forum meet-up and only really met Jaimie, but IIRC that was more by accident than anything. This year I hope to make it.

    Anyone who is new to the cruise, I really recommend going to any of the smaller pre-parties in Florida so you can really meet people before it gets too hectic.

    I already booked a cheap bed at the Holywood beach suites and hostels, not easy to find something reasonable when you travel alone.

    Are there any hostels on that other beach or does anyone want to share a room? I don't want to pay more than 100$ per night.


    It's a good question, and was probably already answered, but I know for a fact both parties will be going on. I'll be heading to the Riptide as soon as I fly in, then head to the main party. Gonna be a blast. Hope to see everyone in between both of these sure to be raging parties.

    I'm in Denver as well. I think we should all have a pre-cruise get-together. TRVE brewery on the 30th? I'm flying out to Miami on the 31st.

    Yes it's still taking place at the Ocean Manor Tiki bar. The facebook event page is set as private though which is why you can't see it. If you send me a private message with a link to your FB page I can send you an invite.
