Just Announced: The Non-Mid-Atlantic & Non-NYC Edition

Yeah, I am also going.  The VIP at Voodoo is the best of any music festival.  Makes the whole trip worth it.

So vip is worth it?  I've heard mixed things on them.  Have you done them in previous years?  Give me the scoop.  I've gone the last few years and find it easy to go around the park, this year they moved in another area of the park.

On that same note, the Made in America fest in Philly offers VIP. I was just curious if this sort of thing really does offer a better stage view, better bathrooms, less crowded areas, etc. I saw that Coachella offers VIP as well, which is expensive as hell. But is this the new thing at these events? And which ones offer a better value for what you're paying? I'm just curious what folks have experienced. Thanks.

The only vip that is worth it hands down, according to everyone is Bonnaroo.  I went to Made last year, not sure what VIP included but I had no problem getting close to the stage.  A lot of vips nowadays includes better shiters that are ac.

WHOAH!!! Billy Squier!!

I'd go see Billy Squier in a heartbeat.  Hey Seth!

[Stillwater]

I've done VIP at Bonnaroo and Coachella and don't think it's worth it. At Voodoo, half the pit is blocked off for VIP and never fills up.  You can walk up as the headliner is starting and get 10-15 people from the stage and its not crowded.  You feel bad turning around and seeing the smooshed people on the rail who have been camping there all day but whatever. It's awesome.

The Cure has been added as the third headliner.  Not too shabby as far as headliners go this year.  Still haven't got my ticket not sure if I'm going regular or vip

Seems like they spent all their money on headliners and didn't leave any for the rest of the bands.

You gotta trust me with the VIP- especially if you are digging the headliners.

Found out that the Kid has his lake house just down the road from the house my parents rent each year in Michigan.
