HW has pepsi can discounts. Go here for more info on that.
I'd say definitely hit PKI in time for the announcement even if it means a drive all night. You will probably be so pumped after The Cure show that you won't want to go to bed immediately afterwards anyway. PKI really knows how to do up events like that and make them once in a lifetime memorable events. BeastBuzz this year was certainly like that.
SFKK has a good collection of coasters. Be sure to ride Thunder Run in both back and front. Both seats offer a surprising amount of airtime. While you're in Louisville and since you're into The Cure, you might want to check out a great independent record store called Ear X-tacy. It's located off Bardstown Road in the coolest section of town.
Macho Nachos.....Holiday World is a must-do. SFKK won't hurt either. You will have the time of your life at all of the parks.
Just DO IT! :-D

Bring your swim suits and head into Splashin' Safari because Zinga, Jungle Racer and Ottorongo are a must (Ottorongo's slides are named Otto, Ron and Go, Ron and Go are the ones to try, one of them is a double down and gives wicked air). Zinga is a blast and Jungle Racer also gives a bit of air on the second double down, just remember to pull up a bit on the front of your mat or you'll end up with a gallon of water up your nose.
For the best seat on the Legend sit on 1.2 and for the best seat on the Raven go for the back seat.
The shows are fun and don't forget to tell Santa what you want for Christmas. They have fantastic Pizza up at Kringles Kafe and get some fudge next door at Mrs. Claus Kitchen, it's some of the best in the world.
In between the Raven and the Legend is Frightful Falls, HW's log flume. Give it a try because it's pretty fun and goes through part of the Legend. Also the rapids ride is fun. Also remember to hit Hallowswings because it's fun and is also a great way to cool off when it's hot out.
Have Fun and if you see me there because I'm probably going to go every day this week for a bit be sure to say hi.
Have Fun!

Don't listen to SFoGswim.
My favorite MJ tune: "Billie Jean" which I have been listening to alot now. RIP MJ.
Ride all the wood coasters (you can skip SOB unless excessive shaking is your thing) and you'll be a happy person.
P.S. I thought the Racer forward was running very nicely a few weeks ago. I actually prefered that to Beast on that day.
P.S. Finish with Legend and Raven and then debate all day about which is better!
But above all, have a good time. As long as SFKK isn't crowded I'd say half a day on Sat is plenty, unless you decide you want more re-rides. But dosen't the fair start this week? Or is it next?
BE SURE TO CHECK THEIR WEBSITE FOR THE KENTUCKY STATE FAIR'S SITE TO SEE IF THE FAIR IS GOING ON THIS WEEK!:)
Hope you have fun!
Seriously, its a shame that a coaster that could be in my top 5 is so rough. WE NEED NEW TRAINS!!
But I found that Bufferin at least an hour before you rides dosen't make the ride itself less painful, but does stop the lasting pain and headache after you get off...
I usually pop a pill before I go to a park as well, just in case.
BTW, the Kentucky State Fair August 19-29th.
