Curious, how much were the tickets sold this summer? Am I remembering wrong in that the pre-sale last November sold out in like an hour? I'm going to try for my ticket on the 28th and hope for tier one prices.
The summer presale was $209.50 plus fees (GRRRRR). Total was $244.85.
I had to jump on that price. Last year I waited until the main sale in February (I think) and spent probably $60 more for a ticket. I'd have to dig that receipt out to be sure.

Cool. I'm more just buying mine now for the excitement of it, but saving $30 is nice too. Can't wait to have that wristband wrapped around my arm again. Beep. Beep. Beep.
is it still to early to get the cloth vs. plastic rage on? people should have complained the hell out of that one and I think if I remember correctly were not some of the staff wearing some sort of years of cloth type bracelet.

Never too early for that. I really hope they bring back the cloth. I like being able to wear my band post-Roo. Obviously the plastic bands from this year weren't conducive to that in terms of look and feel. I want that thing to fuse to my skin. They'll have to surgically remove it from me. Maybe they can start selling a lifetime Roo band. Pay once. Go forever. Wear it forever. Be forced to use a porta the other 361 days a year, etc. Full time Roo living.

I think it will be a combo of both. This year at Moog they had tiny plastic RFID chips that the cloth wristbands ran through. Cheap as hell looking but comfortable.
Okay, so pre-sale will be Monday, here's the quandry;
I definitely want to go back for the 5th year, Hubby wants to wait for the line up. I should have enough points with the Street Team to get one free ticket and since they announced the beard and moustache winners I know I have to buy at least one. So buy one, buy two? In the past I would have just bought two and sold the other one if we didn't need it but that seems more complicated with the bracelets.

It being holiday time I'll hold my money for now check out the line up (knowing there are going to be many bands I want to see) then buy my ticket in Feb or whenever they go on sale.

not waiting, definitely buying ours on the 28th.
i really hope they go with the cloth. maybe that would prevent them from becoming so easily damaged (i had to get two new ones throughout 'roo last year).
I had to get new ones to I was stopped because somehow it got damaged in centeroo. They mad me go talk to the people at a desk. I was so fucked up i could hardly answer questions at 3 am last thing I wanted was a hassle on the way back to camp. I should have just took off running and came back the next day. There were several people in line and bitching all kinds of hell. bad enough if it fucks up going into Centeroo but on your way back? RFID hell if you ask me. Nobody should be bothered walking back to camp that is sacriligious! They just want to pass out!

can't afford it right now. Its raining, cold and can't order Bonnaroo tickets...and oh, did I mention my headache? Think I'll get back under the covers till tomorrow....
It looks like the tickets are already at price level 2... this makes me wonder if I even need to spend the money now. When the on-sale occurs after the lineup is announced isn't that generally on level 2 as well? I would prefer to wait to see the line-up if I am not saving any money.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
