Tickets go on sale Monday, August 2 at 10am (Central).
I got an e-mail about this festival this morning. I guess the same folks who did Coachella or are doing Austin City Limits got my address.

Been looking forward to this one for a while......one of my best friends live there and we grabbed a room all ready downtown so we don't have to drive out of the city to his place in the 'burbs after the show....he's grabbing ticks when they go on sale....this should be pretty damn cool even though the city is a crime infested hellhole in the worst parts of downtown.....btw sonick, I am paying FULL price for the ticks,BUT the hotel room is comped!..... :)

i was starting to read your post and i thought, "i bet he has comps!" haha, at least the hotel room is. :)
I think i am going to go. picking this over ACL simply because, while there are about the same amount of bands i like playing at each (about 8!) my GF likes the "shite" music like NFG, Beastie Boys, and such that i never take her to see, so this way, we'll both win....hopefully they'll add some more electronic acts though.

>>> I'm really going for the Pixies and everything else is just delicious gravy on top!
Very diverse lineup. I think you'll see more adds as time goes on...they just wanted to announce the larger acts to spur ticket sales in August...

Too bad they dont have a room for rent. I got a place on Elbow Beach. I can't wait for that trip!!!!!!!!!! I read they are pretty strict there. It's against the law not to wear a shirt unless your on/near the beach. Females can't walk around with JUST their bikini tops like almost all beach towns. Oh well, I'll get the boring island out of the way first, then start hitting more down south.

Do they have any nood beaches there?

I would have to say no. It's one of the more stricter tropical islands by the sounds of it.

Bermuda isn't tropical. It's the same latitude as North Carolina.

but does Bermuda have the same weather as NC? Ice storms in the winter and what not?

No ice storms. It's temperate. But it's not like you are in the Caribbean and can sunbathe and swim in January.
