ILFEU 2020: The Hindsight! August 21st-24th

Save the date/order cheap tickets now!

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 three 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!

Jams:
Currently we don't have a rehearsal space, but we can rent a big room or two at the rehearsal hotel downtown. Worked fine the last two years. 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? :lol:
Hotel: See above.
Renting the mausoleum and rehersal space

If people want to know my home address for some reason (if luggage is delayed or something), PM me!

Put me on the list!

Would it be absurd to bring a guitar? Is it worth the trouble?

I might like to stay for an extra day or two on either end to take in some Norwegian culture.

Wooooooo! :!!!:

DRod has brought his guitar once, and once a guitar for me. It's doable, but I don't know how much of a hassle it is.

And staying for longer is encouraged. Coldbrightsunlight even took the train over to Bergen two years ago (or was it last year).

I think with a guitar it's very much down to whether you get a nice flight crew or one that makes you pay extra to bring it at the gate (which happened to Drod from London>Oslo on our flight)
