Sounds like this is a good fest to do solo, but terrible with a group of people. Especially people you convince to go nearer to the date of the fest who would then be unable to get tickets to certain shows that you already have a ticket to. You have to commit to going pretty early on, otherwise you're going to get shut out of tickets for these late night shows.
People should be allowed to express their disappointment, lowerdeck. Doesn't meant they're being overtly negative if they're disappointed by changes to what were already pretty flawless festival logistics. People are allowed to have their feelings.
It was more criticism to people freaking out about things before knowing the entire story and all the details.

When did tickets go on sale last year? I'm guessing we have at least a month from now to make a financial decision about this? After the lineup announcement?

Pretty sure they were on sale In early June last year???

Finally got through all of the Moog FB posts and went through various emotional stages, confusion>uncontrolled anger>partially relief of anger>confusion again.
Some of the changes sound decent enough. I could care less about AC dropping the Animoog playground in favor of a club atmosphere, assuming as Dave has mentioned that their idea of world class dj's is not what they put up at the Silent Disco (give me a Richie Hawtin or a Donato Dozzy and we are all good). I also don't mind paying extra for LN shows if they are quality acts I want to see rather than paying a heftier fest ticket price and either a) not caring about LN act and not going or b) not getting in b/c its a total clusterfuck.
Like many on here, I'm trying to stay positive, and reserving all judgement until everything has been laid out for us.
I can't remember the ticket cost last year? But if the line-up speaks to me, a 2 day pass plus a LN show per night is less than or roughly the same as last year, I'd be happy

I believe tier 1 was $150+fees and tier 2 was $180+fees. I think. I'd hope tix will be around $100-$120 this year since we are only getting 2/3 of the acts we got last year.

Maybe tier 1 at $80 and tier 2 at $110, plus late night shows at $25/ticket? And the David Byrne + St Vincent show on Thursday night for $50? That would be pretty sweet.

I'm optimistic about what I've read today. My guess is that there will be an option to buy a ticket for the main shows at the US Cellular Center (Fri, Sat, or Both Nights), and another option to buy all weekend + concurrent shows. Thursday and Late shows will be extra. We'll find out soon enough! I reserved a room from Thursday - Monday morning at the Renaissance. I am guessing I'll need a day of recovery on Sunday, no matter what happens with the ticketing

We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

This is pretty much what I gathered after reading ALL of the Moog updates on FB today. I feel like they will offer 2 day passed to the USCC only, 2 day passes to the USCC AND the concurrent day/evening shows at the Peel/etc, single day passes to the USCC, and single day passes for the USCC and the concurrent day/evening shows.
That gives people plenty of options, and then in addition the LN shows at the Peel/etc will be an additional cost, as will the Thursday show at the Peel.
I'm planning on buying a 2 day pass for USCC and the other venues. I'll see what the Thursday show and late night venues offer and then decide what I'm gonna purchase from that grouping.
I want to go to this really bad too this year. What's the deal on lodging? Cheap lodging? Bunny, if I promise to work on doing this will you? purty please?

If you want to get a hotel call downtown inn and suites QUICKLY, they only have a few king beds left and you only put a cc down to reserve, they dont' charge (no putting a hold on cc either) you till you check out.
Bjork will be topped billed. Book it. Probably not, but one can hope that they reason the went to only 2 nights is because of a big booking. Bjork would fit right in with Moog as well
