Anybody thinking of going to the Nor'easter up near Rumney? http://www.noreasterems.com/home.html
Looks cool, i know a lot of my favorite climbers will be there and it's close to home so i'll probably be there.

$50 for a weekend? that's not bad at all! Unfortunately my september is already booked right through, otherwise i'd be there in a heart beat.

Is a nor'easter anything like a nooner?

nooner?!?..
i don't think $50 for a weekend is that bad. Free demos from sponsors, reel rock film tour premier, and free workshops from ems guides and BD athletes... i thought it would have been more expensive

I don't understand exactly what the 50 bucks buys. Is it just for the film screening and the music? All the camping/parking/clinics etc seem to be free according to the website.

50 bucks to climb @ Rumney when you can pay 3 any other time? No thanks. Watching Tommy Caldwell climb would be pretty cool, but I wonder if you'll actually be able to get on route yourself with that many people there. And who the hell is State Radio? Should I have heard of them? Maybe I should start reading teenie bopper mags so I can keep up.

your loss.
i'm super excited, going to meet up with good friends i haven't seen in ages, do some trail work on sunday, hanging out and partying at the film and after a long day of climbing there's nothing like tapping as nice, cold keg. mMmmmm.
State radio is a band with one of the guys form dispatch. they do an awesome live show, i see them every year. props on the organizers for getting them.

Some good news folks... we've heard your plea:
Andrew at NameMedia is responsible for marketing of rc.com, and through his developing relationship with the team at EMS he's been able to secure 2 free tickets (worth $50 each) to the Nor’Easter Climbing event. Send him a private message (user ATG) or e-mail (advertise@rockclimbing.com) to enter the giveaway. He'll draw the two lucky names next Monday at noon.

we must have different versions of what constitutes a 'loss'. missing a new band made up of members of a old crappy band doesn't fit my rubric.
