I always talk about the Festival Bubble and the tipping point. If Red Frog/FF keep at this pace they may be the one that goes poof. Horrible to not have the schedule 16 days out from the festival. I could see the schedule being released by Thursday which would be 2 weeks out from the festival. Anything after Friday is a complete failure on their part.
Nah, Firefly will be very close to 90,000 people this year. The location is perfect. As long as the actual festival goes well, and people have fun, they'll be back. Pre-festival issues are forgotten as soon as the festival starts. I just hope Red Frog learns something from this year's myriad problems.
No schedule, no wristbands yet (been sitting at "Shipping Label Created" for 7 days now) and no shipping status at all on my 2 Premier Camping passes - no biggie - only have to leave for this thing in 15 days.
Mine sat at "shipping label created" for 6 days. The good news: once it actually shipped, I got it the next day.

I think they simply don't care. Regardless of being completely incompetent of meeting deadlines they set for themselves, they do the bare minimum to promote excitement leading up to the festival.

I just want all my crap - leaving after work on Wednesday for premier camping means I probably won't get to Dover until 9:30ish - if I have to get to Will Call before 10pm for camping passes then get in to camp, I'm going to be extremely unhappy. I realize that most likely I will get my stuff in time, it's just with each day we get closer, I now have to account for that small chance that I don't.

Thanks for bringing this up. My shipping label has been getting created in Champlain, NY since May 28th. Better be the sweetest effing label I've ever laid my eyes on.

Mine sat there for a while too, probably 5ish days. And I guess no one has received their camping passes yet?
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

I got shipping label created last week, pretty sure that's where everyone's at.
My shipping label created sat for 6 days albeit it was a holiday weekend. Finally got my wristband. GF paid for hers in full and I did payment plan. Totally got mine first

I'm almost positive I'm not going anywhere near Firefly as long as RedFrog still owns it. Sorry you guys are having so many troubles.
It's unfortunate Red Frog is so disorganized. The Woodlands is a terrific venue for a music festival. Beautiful setting, ample shade, great stages, and decent attractions. I'm sure the festival itself will go smoothly, but the last few months have been a train wreck plagued by botched lineup and scheduled releases, poor communication, and a lack of preparedness (not to mention an underwhelming lineup). On one hand, they managed to transform Firefly from a relatively unknown 30,000-person festival to a nationally recognized 90,000-person festival in only 3-4 years. On the other hand, they have clearly struggled to keep pace with such rapid growth. Putting on a festival for 90,000 people is a significant undertaking, and their ability to do the job adequately is highly questionable.

Soooo true. I thought they were supposed to be learning stuff from Goldenvoice?

About a week and a half ago I decided against bothering updating the clash finder because I figured the schedule would be out soon and it would be pointless. Maybe I should plug all these times at this point, hell how many set times do we know now? How many will we know before it actually comes out? Lol.
at this rate I think it might be quicker to get the schedule if we all just divide up the artists and ask them all on twitter
Honestly, I'm not against this idea at all... I might start asking to a few that I really want to know about - like to try and figure out the clusterfuck of RTJ/Odesza/Kygo/Modest Mouse/etc etc
Really good news about Rustie though. I will absolutely be there over Aoki (I'll be anywhere over Aoki, but Rusie is kewl, so I'm pleased with the idea of the two coinciding).

Yeah I'm just hoping Chainsmokers aren't late night as well cause I really want to see what kind of crazy shit they have planned. But if its just Aoki I'll be pretty pumped to get to skip for Rustie
I got shipping label created last week, pretty sure that's where everyone's at.
I got my wristband 10 days ago. I almost feel guilty about that. It's amazing how many people still don't have them.
I don't think anyone has gotten camping passes yet. Maybe there was a delay in printing the camping stickers.
They've done dumb stuff before - like last year with the camping wristbands you were supposed to get, people traded them, sold them, etc...and then there just were no camping wristbands. If there's a major f-up with camping passes, then who knows what dumb thing they'll do.
Well this will be good news for some and bad news for anyone who wants to see Kid Cudi(like me), tweeted Chainsmokers. Drum roll....FUCK.
That's kind of unfortunate, I was really hoping for a Chainsmokers LN
yeah LN would have been better but now I get to see Rustie and them which is good. isn't 8 or 9 during the HL? Does that mean they'll have sets during headliners on days other than Sunday this year or am I wrong

Nah, thats pre-headliner. They'll probably have Martin Garrix's sunset spot that conincided with Phantogram and Broken Bells last year. I expect them to conflict with Cudi and maybe on more.
