$175 for a $50 ticket is goofy.
And re: Hampton, I'm sure the putz's who spent $1000 had a good time. They were surrounded by other choads who thought $1000 was reasonable. Me? Not interested in spending the weekend with people like that.
But why the automatic assumption that someone who spends that much is automatically a putz? Value judgments, Pinner. You're a curmudggeon, but you are also better than that.Quote:

Value judgment on something that creates an unhealthy state of affairs in my industry? Absolutely.
If the douchebags dropping $1000 on a ticket didn't support scalping, prices for all tickets would return to a normal level and you'd have a fairly balanced representation in the crowd. Instead you've got a sea of same.
and that happened for the first leg of summer tour as face value tickets were everywhere
I will most likely be rolling to sunday with my buddy who is coming in for the shows (although I am hearing he might not go to all 4, so I might be able to get his extras!!)
Either way you should roll with us.
The wifey and I are in for Thurs, Fri, Sat and stoked beyond belief! I had to get creative and trade a pair of Liberty Double Helix's($260 on Tramdock) for the two Sat tix, but I gut er dun! Got the Thur & Fri for face.
It's finally starting to hit me that I'm going to see my favorite band at my favorite venue, AGAIN! It's been a LONG 13 years.:biggrin:
Mike & Dave, let's meet up and drink a few!
PayPal approved me a $500 credit limit (lol), so I just pulled the trigger on a Thursday from StubHub.
I'm 3/4!!!
Maybe I should just say fuck it and get a friday too, and not have to worry anymore.
Do it. 123Quote:

C, pm me your email so we can coordinate meeting up for a cocktail or seven.
looks like Halloween will be in California, unless there are more tricks up the sleeves...
if its in cali that would BLOW!!!!!!! no onsite camping?????? how the fuck can they pull that off?????
on another note stoked for darian-hartford-SPAC
may do a last min RR trying to decide
Indio has onsite camping
cool I must have read something wrong
Tickets in hand :D
I'll be there Friday and Saturday for sure, possibly Sunday. Staying at a buddy's downtown one night, maybe both.
Maggot meetup? I'm down for some preshow beers with some of ya'll.
Love the FAQs
Quote:
Will my cell phone work out there? It's a crapshoot. Signal strength may vary depending on your provider's coverage and the whim of Craig, our telecom systems engineer, who can be a total dick.

Can I blog from the concert field? Bring a computer inside? Sure, but if something happens to your computer, that's on you, nerd. We assume no responsibility for lost or damaged Twitter machines. #phishwebsitejokes
I will not be able to get there until 3 AM on Sat. morning. Is this going to be OK? What's so important you can't get there until 3?
It's a family issue, and I don't feel comfortable sharing it with the Internet. Sorry, didn't mean to pry. Yes, camping gates will be attended 24 hours a day throughout the event from Thursday - Sunday.
Where do people that are staying with me in my RV but driving up separately park for the weekend? A separate companion parking area will be provided. For young people and their companions.
Can young people camp without companions? No. Young people must always camp with their companions. Companions, however, can camp alone.
Need to figure out a way to go to Indio...
Very unlikely, however.
Me too. I'm putting the probability of going to this festival at about 20%.Quote:

I really don't care what you think, but as far as I can see, I'm just a person with some really screwed up priorites, that is willing drop everything to go see my favorite band, at one of the best venues in the world, with friends I don't get to see often, and just absolutely have a blow out weekend. If you don't like fun....please do not come to a Phish show.
Hopefully, we will have some early season pow to compensate.Quote:

Considering Halloween is basically the slowest time of the year for me I will most certainly be attending the indio shit show!
Thinking about being Jimmy Herring for halloween. White pony-tail....epic white beard. Flannel shirt + jeans. Blow-up guitar.
With that outfit you could be Jimmy Herring...OR Gregg Allman, OR Edgar Winter!Quote:

First, lets figure out which day.Quote:

Still looking for RR tix...any day
We'll be there in full force on Saturday night... probably rocking an old school bus as transportation.

We be rocking a full on margarita bar. Fresh squeezed out of the rolling thunder nugget. My budies old school green 78 westfalia. ugh!! Probably parking in lower south or early bird.
So maybe lower south on Saturday? What time? Where to meet?
Another vote for Lower South 1 or Early Bird....I plan to have the ez-up going for shade.
So lets plan on lower south lot, Saturday at 4. Further details to come.
FUCK I AM SO EXCITED. Five days.
I'm in for this.Quote:

I can't believe it either. I probably won't realize it till they come on stage for the first set Thursday. Will be a couple weeks shy of 5 years since Coventry (which I can barely rationalize calling "shows")
I'll see where we end up (and when)... Try to figure it out
Think I have my Friday lined up. Will know for sure tomorrow!
GAME. FUCKING. ON.
I'm in for Sat and Sun. will be rolling with captain powder.
Looking for a friday ticket, will not make Thurs.
FIVE DAYS MOTHER FUCKER! weeeeee! yipeee!
Excitement level plus 100 and building!! Ugh! Fuck yeah! Just like before the midwest. Pretty much tell everyone I talk to how awesome its gonna be.Quote:

we are not driving on Saturday, so we will need to rely on someone else to have the parking spaces to hang. ideally (and unrealistically) the few of you driving could meet up beforehand, drive in together and set up next to one another.
wistful thinking.
I will now be going Sunday too. Sweet.
