I have bump tix from several airlines, and I'd really like to do this, having missed all the other bigapaloozas. I'm game for any time in the spring/summer. I can also recommend a lot of other stuff. Some sillier things, like the Gilroy garlic festival. Garlic ice cream, anyone? Then theres the serious stuff, like the tallest tree, sea lions, nude beaches.....uh well I've HEARD there're some, ahem.....etc.

Its a great area, and there really is a lot to see and do.
