Overall MTTS was a good event but it just seemed like everyone was drained by the time they got to the last few days (and I certainly don't blame them!). The party in Jersey City was kind of blah... White Roof Radio didn't even cover it. I was expecting a big bash and I know a lot of people didn't even stay for Everclear (which was the best part IMO) because the party died by 4 or 5. Overall, MINI was very gracious to do such a great event and I can't imagine the expense to put it on, but starting on the Eastcoast this time would allow others to participate in the kickoff activities.</p> What about an Eastcoast to Westcoast run this time?
