OFFICIAL Virgin Mobile FREEFEST 2009 Q/A - Hype Thread! REVISED

[saintangelsin]

you'll note that i highlighted the fact that unclaimed will-call tickets will be released to the public on 8/28... guess that means out-of-towners who want to attend will have to pony up $5 for physically mailed tix.  no day-of will-call pick up at the venue (expect maybe for tickets bought after 8/28 - can't confirm this)

also, to those who have gotten tickets today

no one got tickets today.  presale starts tomorrow.  and yes, limit is 2.

So does that mean the karma packages are on sale tomorrow for the presale? Just wondering. I tried getting a karma package today and it said no tickets were available and it made me a bit scared. I really want to get a karma package instead of just the free tickets.

Also, one more question, where is the pre-sale code coming from? I'm on the 930 club's mailing list and I'm on the v-fest mailing list. I've attended the last two years. I've yet to get the code, so I'm a little freaked out.

ps- if anyone would like to help me, please feel free to share the code.

the subject line of the e-mail was, for me, "This Year Virgin Mobile Festival is FREE!".  try doing a search for that.  don't forget to look in your trash and spam folders too (these are often omitted from searches and you need to specify that you wanna search there too).

 I checked every possible combination. Still no dice 

[sonickteam2]

way to go skippy.

if anyone could PM me the code, I'd really appreciate it. i'll also keep it secret.

yup still no code and I don't think i'm getting it by now so anyone care to share pm me.  Thanks.

Just remember that I bought my ticket to the first Virgin fest at the Clubs boxoffice, which would explain why the pw hasn't arrived yet....

well the password is all over the internet now.  I thought it would be something unique to each previous buyer but guess not.  May the free for all begin tomorrow

just got the email and i got tickets at the 930 box office last year with cash. dont remember if i signed up for the updates here, but i doubt i did. i am on the 930 mailing list though.

also, i want to thank seth and virgin mobile for putting this together and providing a dance tent. i'm looking forward to getting groovy to pete tong and others. thanks for booking the real talent and not some shitty ed banger dj or something.

and thanks for public enemy, too. i've been wanting to see them for a while now.

which means it's time for another edition of sitting by the pool with drink in hand watching the fur fly around about 10:05am tomorrow... who's turn is it for the lounge chair?

Hey! DJ Mehdi is fucking awesome! Plus they don't do free shows :X At least not ones in Columbia Maryland.

Got my password, Im completely out of the loop on this Ive been out of town since Sunday but my friend is telling me I got a password because I bought my tickets in previous years on-line or something? Either wait. Weezer is worth free. And Public Enemy, that's sick. and Wale. Pete Tong is interesting.

I wonder if they will set up the schedule where it's possible to catch every band with just a litle bit of overlap.    Going back and forth from the forest to the main stage will be a hike from what I remember from hfstival.  That was also GA I think and it was impossible to get in the pit unless you been there all day.

at HFStival you bought pit tickets seperately, so unless you paid extra, you weren't getting in anyway.
