can someone explain the tier system for tickets? i was planning on buying early birders too but this blows that plan, i still plan to attend nonetheless. i am just confused about how they do tiers of tickets
is anyone else worried roo is gettin tooo big, and tix will go too fast like tool or DMB tix sell out in five mins...?
^^^^^^I don't understand .. 80.000 tickets are not going to sell out in 5 min... you know when Bonnaroo is . You know about how much the tickets are , Get your ducks in a row and be ready when they say the ticket window is open . Bonnaroo is like your birthday and christmas and thanksgiving ,, IT COMES AROUND THE SAME TIME EVERY YEAR ....I have our $1.250.00 all ready for as soon as VIP ticket go on sale (last yr feb 23rd at noon ) i'll be there with credit card and laptop. ready to go ...
Yea, I have recived an email today stating there will not be early bird ticketsales this year.
Thank you for your interest in Bonnaroo. Unfortunately, we will not be offering early bird tickets for the 2008 festival. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Let me tell you all the story of the fox and the scorpion:
There was a fox, just chillin' in the desert, going on a little journey and he came upon a big river. Now this river was huge, and all the animals had to cross it if they wanted to the forest on the other side, which was full of tasty food. Well the fox was about to hop in the water to swim across when he heard a little voice behind him. "Hey, fox!" The fox, startled, turned around to find a scorpion. "Hey, fox, think you could you help me get across the river?" said the scorpion, "I can't do it by myself." To which the fox replied, "Well i could probably carry you on my back, but I don't trust you, the moment i let you climb up there you'll sting me!" "No I wont," the scorpion said, "if i sting you while you're carrying us both across we would both drown." The fox thought this over for a bit, and realized the scorpion had a good point. "Okay," he said, "hop on." So the scorpion hopped on the fox's back and the fox started to swim across the river. They were about halfway across when out of nowhere the scorpion stung the fox. "Why did you do that?" the fox said as he began to drown, "now we're both going to drown." The scorpion responded: "I can't help it, i'm a scorpion, it's what we do."

OHHH, so that's why they aren't doing early bird tickets this year...
Now how did I know that comment would draw you out of the woodwork?
ahhh - you know me well - it is the inner Rethuglican coming out in me - conservative, Republican, gun-wielding rock stars - man - it just does not get any better ;D

Eww Meg I prefer my shaggy, liberal, guitar wielding rock stars
I realize that we have (mostly) agreed that there are no early bird tickets this year but last year was the first time they had done it and wasn't it a "flash" thing last year anyways? What I mean is, didn't they just release an email that a limited amount of early bird tickets are on sale now? (I want to say they sold a couple thousand that sold out in a few minutes.)
The point of my query is that I'm a bit surprised how many people seemed to have been counting on getting their tickets before they went officially on sale.
On a separate note, I've always thought it would be cool if Bonnaroo put its tickets on sale prior to the lineup announcement followed by a very slow artist release. Perhaps announce a couple of artists a day and increase the price a little bit every day. It would foster interest and discussion while rewarding loyalty. Fun to me but probably not a gameplan they'll embrace, especially if they have a headliner guaranteed to sellout the fest on its own.
This is a big bummer. I was hoping they would keep doing EB to reward the people that were going to show up no matter who played just for the atmosphere (or maybe to set the atmosphere, in a sense). I guess were all just gunna have to hope we get the jump on all the Zeppelin fans.
