it could be a combination.....if we please with the early bird, get them out around the generous time of christmas...we can sell out, get more money, and book a stellar lineup
There's another possibility that hasn't been mentioned.
Sure, the presale increases sell-out chances and pleases the faithful. And it could be possible they're making advances on an epic lineup. But it could just be that Superfly needs money for other expenses.
Possibly infrastructure, although there might be some kind of property taxes or something involving ownership of the farm due.
The fact that there was no Vegoose last year might have reduced their cash flow, in which case that money has to come from somewhere else.

As all those reasons seem probable all i know is that i got mine and im going no matter what happens barring my death, well even then you guys would have to deal with me haunting the farm!
i know i will probably be accused of just being a hater of all things roo. but the one decent thing superfly did was to not have the super early bird. they know what kind of fans buy those. hippies who frequent message boards and hear about things like that. and they all would have wanted their money back when they saw a bunch of radio garbage was headlining. so i think they didnt do it solely because of that reason. they knew 90 percent of the people coming wouldnt buy tickets until they heard about roo on the radio or mtv and the ones who did would throw a fit. now that the new roo lineup is apparaent, and phil has been mistreated, the hippies are done with roo, and the roo message boards and mailing lists are flooded with a bunch of kanye, lil wayne custies they can probably do allright with the super early bird again.
but seriously... im sure the earlybird is because beyonce is playing and they knew it would sell out instantly after thats announced.
