Is it to early to start planning?

Are you KIDDING??? I just this very morning called the Casa Marina and got two rooms reserved. The lady was very nice. And now I have to wait almost one year. But it's good to know we'll have a room close to the action. The price for rooms scared me a little....I first asked for the two-bedroom suite and the price was $659 (those rooms aren't in the 'Parrothead block').

What would everyone say that the average cost per person a weekend at MOTM would cost. Say plane ticket, hotel room split 3 ways, and all the other goodies! Next MOTM will be the weekend after my 21st birthday, i wanna see if somehow I can swing it as a present to myself.

NO NEVER TOO EARLY
I started planning 2004s trip 1 week after returning back from the 2003 trip. I already have my Oct 2005 trip planned. Sadly not in KW for MOTM, but NO hits from Phaw next year

whaddya mean, no KW in 2005? Where else, and what else could be more fun? (even if Jimmy doesn't come into town for a teeth-cleaning and decide to stay and sing a couple songs..

)

I think it's going up to $60 next year.

Ah yes Larry, I do believe you are correct.
my bad

But the extra $10 is well worth it

Budget about $1200, including room/meals/airfare/souvenirs. Figure that alcohol is going to be fairly expensive if you are buying it by the drink, so you might want to mix and carry your own for the large events on the lawn. maybe add on another 20% just in case you do something silly like lock your keys in the rental car.

We planned on $3000 +/-
But we drove and had 8 nights stay to deal with. PLus gas and tolls.

The rooms at the Casa Marina are $205 for a one bedroom(with parrothead special rate), $659 for a two bedroom(not included in the parrothead block). That's about $1140 for a one bedroom....food: $50 a day per person....MOTM reg.: $60 per person....drinks: $200 a day per person

well, for ME anyway!

OH! Plane fare...I have no idea, I tried to check on web sites and the airlines don't have their schedules for Nov. 2005 up yet. Egads this will cost a fortune.
