I am not at the downtown inn . My buddy had points for another hotel. Luckily the hotel is only a mile away and has a shuttle. I'll be lurking around the DT Inn for sure though
2012 will be my first time at Moogfest - coming from the UK.
good lawd, seriously? If I lived in Europe, I don't know if I'd even bother with any US festivals.
I have some questions for moog veterans, if they'd be willing to entertain them... I like the idea of a festival being downtown in multiple venues that are fairly close to each other, but what happens if you get to one of the venues and it's already at it's capacity? Shit out of luck, go somewhere else? Hang around and wait/hope someone walks out and you can take their place? It seems to me that since this is already sold out, you pretty much have to stay at whichever venue the main act that you want to see that day is playing to guarantee you don't get turned away. Is this true? Or does everyone pretty much clear out of a venue after a set? Does the festival sell out when the total number of tickets sold equals the total capacity of all the venues? The schedule from last year is full of conflicts that would have had me bouncing all over the place, splitting several sets, is why I ask. Did anyone catch any of the Tobacco or Adian Below's Power Trio sets last year? Why do all of you inforoo nerds prefer this festival over Voodoo? Moog's more expensive, has like half the amount of artists, far less diverse acts, and Asheville certainly ain't no 'Nawlins. Is it just because the location is more convenient for you?

The other day, I had the idea that Elizabeth Fraser might be there. She's playing her first solo shows in August at Meltdown in England and she seems like just the act Moog would kill for. Hell, maybe that aborted Cocteau Twins reunion will pick up this year. Then again, I'm probably just building up my already-too-high expectations.
Did Miami Music Week and Ultra Music Fest this March and had a great time !
Ultra is the only festival that one of my friends goes to every year. He's pretty well off and flies from here to miami and stays with a friend while he's over there. I can't imagine what kind of baller you are to be able to do multiple overseas festivals a year. How many festivals do you attend that are in Europe? Which is your favorite?

For me personally its the city of Asheville. I absolutely love that place. Mountains, beer and way good eats.
I love NOLA and Neil Young but this is the obvious winner for my tastes. I like the fact that its smaller too. I don't have to fight to get a good spot.
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.
understood... So the main venue is around 6k capacity, do they cap off ticket sales close to that? like 10k max?
I feel like it was 11k last year but I may be wrong. They did a good job with the scheduling the past few years. I know The Orange Peel got gummed up a few times and some people got shut out of FlyLo but you know what's up. You can look at the schedule and figure out where its gonna get hairy.
Last year I had no problems, except at the Peel for EOTO was at or near capacity.
RDK and I followed Cliff and Greg to Adrian Belew last year. I wasn't familiar with them before, sounded good. Apparently it ended up being a bigger deal than advertised, but Vector will have to elaborate.

Yeah, I would have loved to have seen 'em. I'm sure it was no King Crimson, but still...Adrian Belew is a legend.
