I never saw so many bikes in my life. Pretty cool. They should just close roads around Auditorium Shores and make roads accessible to pedestrians and bikes only next year.
Cabs are very reasonably priced, though it might be a pain to catch one after the show with all the people milling about. I think catching a bus there is probably a good idea. . I was kind of hoping Austin would have the metro rail running during that weekend, but it doesn't seem like they will.
Wish I could say I had a magic idea about where to park. Maybe if you get there early enough you could park downtown near Republic Square Park. . . but I'm guessing spots over there will get picked over pretty quickly. If you're willing to hoof it I'm sure you could find something downtown. Might be some spots in the neighborhood south of Barton Springs.
I'm interested to know if the parking at the Palmer Events Center will be opened up. I'm too cheap to pay for anything, so most likely I'll be doing some walkin' or bikin'.
yea i'm not sure how i'm getting to the fest yet. I'm going to suggest to my designated driver to part somewhere downtown-ish and walk to the shore. That way when we hit up sweet afterparties we don't have to walk so far at the end of the night.

I think riding cabs eventually adds up, but then again it does have its' many benefits.

Ayana this will give you a pretty good idea what to expect cab fare wise. There is even a trip calculator

Great question, Sergio. I'd like to know too.
How much are cabs in Austin?
After I drive down, I was thinking about taking the bus in the morning/afternoons and taking a cab at night.
