FREEFEST 2011

ticketfly did awesome, I got tickets and I'm not even going 

Same here. I'm gonna burn my tickets just for the fuck of it.

[i am gay and i like cats]

well i'm not going, i didn't get tickets . . . hell, i didn't even try.  i wanted to go, but would i have a good time?  its so far from my house and parking at merriweather when it's not a jam band and everybody's not off the hook drinking, smoking pot, titties hanging out, isn't that exciting.  somehow . . . this show would feel to me, "like i'm babysitting, and not getting paid."

[notme]

they should webcast this, so we do not have to go.

[Jaguar]

Ha, ha! It's just not the same; however, I do like the idea of having it webcasted.

Bummed about VIP. Every year I bought them plus spent a few hundred on me and my friends. It was our mini Lallapalooza. Guess its gone and we will have to start hitting Chicago. It was a fun ritual while it lasted : (

You need to quit the board again.

So if it's "an lol cat" does that mean we're supposed to read it out loud as "an L-O-L cat" because I believe it should be read as "a lawl cat" meaning you don't use "an".

In fact, I think we should just stop resisting modern progress and start saying "lawl" when we find something comical or humorous. Even an iron robot housecleaner that wears a french maid outfit would says "LAWL" when hearing a witty anecdote concerning an Xp-13 fixed-sync rotating uplink.

Got a text message saying to get free tickets go to virginmobilefreefest.com by 10 am on friday the 23rd and enter "loft".  Seems like this is last years message.  Is virgin sending out this to people by mistake?

Considering that this Friday is the 22nd, I'd say yes.

Seems someone doesn't know the difference between donating and volunteering.

When did they announce the time slots for this thing last year??

When did they announce the time slots for this thing last year??

very, very late in the game - week of.  this is one thing that i'd like freefest to work on: getting the schedule/time slots out at least a week in advance.  festoon it with warnings of "draft", "subject to change", "to be updated", etc, but let's get some lines drawn in the sand.  personally it helps me deal with anxiety and excitement, plan my day (ex: meetup time), etc.

the line-up is 95-100% set, which stage and which order are probably worked out too - why wait until three days before the show to publish it??  i'd rather have a schedule that's 85% correct a week beforehand than one that is 100% right just before the show.

If yer reaching that deep for something to cause yourself some anxiety, you must have a pretty sweet life.
