Per tradition, it will be in Oslo, Norway and we will all get to play the glorious Vigeland mausoleum. Tasty food and beverages will be consumed. Jams and time to just hang out, and, of course, we're recording a big ol' ILFcast episode! All the good stuff!
General info:YOU bring what you want, but note: You'll be in Europe. We have EU power plugs, so if you plan on bringing anything that requires power (other than batteries) you will need an adapter. I have some 1-spots and a daisy, but EU ILFers; if you have extra power supplies, feel free to bring them along!
Housing:
The last two years, people have been staying together at Anker Apartments, which is like a hostel where 6-8 people can share rooms together and you get the essentials like a place to crap, sleep and shower. Group up, share the fun!

Currently we don't have a rehearsal space, but it's highly likely that we will by the time this rolls along. If for some reason we don't, we'll rent a big room or two at the rehearsal hotel downtown. Worked fine last year. Each room has a PA, a drum set, a bass amp (EBS Fafner, 1 x EBS PL-2000 6 x 10”) and two guitar amps (we can choose between Marshall JVM205H+Marshall 1936 2×12″, Fender Twin, VOX AC30 CC2 and Orange AD30HTC+Orange PPC 4×12″). The biggest rooms also have a piano. Neato!
Your expenses will be:Plane ticket/other forms of transportation (depends on where you're coming from)
Shuttle bus/train to+from the airport. (bus $8, train $21)
Public transport tickets. This depends on how much we want to go out and about, but they are about $4 each and are valid for an hour (remember to buy these, Vidret!)
Food. While pretty expensive, living on a student diet for a few days has never killed anyone or their wallets. We're a sharing bunch of folks, so you should never go hungry!
Beer. Our cheapest beer is $1.70 if I remember correctly. It's pretty shitty compared to more fancy pants stuff, but it'll get you drunk. Swedes can maybe bring cheaper beer?
Hotel: See above.
