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.
I have a feeling the Thursday night show is at The Orange Peel, and will sell out very quickly.
NoAge is the only one who did the Thursday show last year.
With them cutting the fest down to 2 days, I think more people are going to be looking to catch a show Thursday. The way they've been hyping up this show, makes me think it's going to be a big name.

Moogfest responded on FB the Exhibition Hall is the old check-in area. Known to me as huge, spacious, concrete loading area. Seems like a neat idea, though I wonder if this means everyone will have to check-in through the front or if this will only open up late at night.

Yeah but the Thursday show last year was Tobacco. Like katy said, with the hype they have put into it, the Thursday show feels like it is going to be a bigger name this year.
I don't know what to think about that post today. The whole "more details later" makes me nervous that the answer is going to be no. I totally hope that the Orange Peel and Asheville Music Hall are involved again because some of your groups with a smaller fanbase just can't pull off the main arena area (see Tim Hecker from last year). I am not sad to see the outdoor venue go. It was nice to have another big stage, but it was balls cold and rainy one day. Being outside in that was not fun.
Somebody asked in the comments section on facebook what the exhibition hall was at the Civic Center. They said it was the area in the basement where we checked in last year. It would make sense as a place to put something in since it seemed like a huge area last year that had basically nothing in it.
It was really freaking cold out there but there was something nice about the Animoog Playground. I loved the food trucks and it was fun to groove while sipping hot chocolate.

I agree. I wasn't adequately prepared, but I like it.

Weekend passes will be available for the U.S. Cellular Center as well as single day tickets. This year’s pass will be more affordable, offer more flexibility as well as – here’s the best part – guaranteed admission to the U.S. Cellular Center.

HUH?
I guess between the three venues inside, they can accommodate everyone? But it doesn't say guaranteed admission to a particular show.

Im thinking the moog ticket will only include The US Cellular shows, and the Thomas Wolfe/Orange Peel shows will all be separately ticketed, hence the lower base ticket price. I hope there wont be the clusterfuck like trying to get late night show tickets for Lolla.
In addition, this year we will utilize the center’s Exhibition Hall, which we will turn into a full-blown nightclub that will feature world class DJ’s.
All of this sounds like easing us into news we will all hate.
This
After the shows at the U.S. Cellular Center have ended, there will be separately ticketed late night performances at The Orange Peel and other venues throughout downtown Asheville. And again, when you buy a ticket for any late night event, you are guaranteed entry. Moogfest weekend pass holders will be given first crack at tickets for these shows in a special presale. You can build your own festival experience to fit your budget. You will have options. We like giving you options. Once again, the Moogfest line-up will be announced in mid-July.
....aaand there it is.

So I guess this means, get my ticket budget ready for mid-july, rather than be able to buy my ticket as I please.

But for real, I'll just wait till all the price and lineup shows up before I am ACTUALLY upset by any of this. I trust in the Capps powers that be....wooosahhhh. Big money, big money, no Unchained whammys!
I don't know. This sounds like shit but until I see pricing I'm holding out my hatred. If these "separately ticketed" shows are, like, 5 bucks a pop for Moogfest weekend pass holders and weekend passes are still regular price, or if like, the full weekend pass is severely discounted and the shows late night are like, 15-20 bucks a pop, I think the idea of separately ticketing everything is actually not too bad, since people will get into the shows they want to, and it leads to less annoying crowds, in the long run.
However, if weekend passes are still regular price (not sure what they were last year), and these "separately ticketed events" still cost the same as a regular concert, well then, looks like there goes my dream of going to Moogfest.
The parallels between this and Forecastle are starting to show up heavily.
Forecastle: $100 Tier 1, $125 Tier 2 weekend festival passes for River Park. Extra for tickets to after parties and the Thurs show. Moog: Weekend festival passes for ACC, extra for tickets to after parties and the Thurs show.
Overall, this will probably be cheaper than last year. Unless you end up at every single extra ticketed show.
