while the brand new Virgin Festival forum has few topics and not much chatter, it does have a moderator, with the handle "Virgin festival" and he's like a used car salesman!!!! its so insulting the way he answers questions by hyping up the show, like we've never been to a rock concert before.
listen to some of his replys
Q:slyJMU:...are you guys not on myspace any more? i tried to find you in my friends but you're gone, and i don't see the little logo/link things for myspace on these pages any more.
A:VirginFestival:
Dear friends! as suspected, our page did get deleted -- probably because our page just wasn't ugly enough. However, thanks to our website dudes, you'll get to post pics and comments in a badass guest book that will be up in a day or two on this site. You can continue to share your enthusiasm about the line-up, meet other Virgin Festival fans, and scope cuties you'll want to have beers with before The Killers hits the boards! Tell all our other friends 'cuz our guestbook's going to be up before you can say FREAKNESS.
Q baltimora: hey,
will there be tables of crafts vendors and causes for us to visit like at festivaas like lollapaloza? i always like to do a little shopping and learning at concerts like this one. thanks.

Dear Shop and Learn,
You will be dazzled by the array of cool nonprofits, festival-inspired art commissioned by top artists around the country, art installations, unexpected bursts of performance art and festive mayhem, as well as merchandise throughout Pimlico Race Course. With all this excitement, when will you have time to check out the Chilis, I wonder?
Q: apocalypsegnome
anyone got ideas on whether/when this will sell out? all my friends are hesitant to shell out the $113 or so (we're college students) but i jumped right on it, half expecting tickets to last only a few days. I would love a sellout crowd, almost more than i would love there to be only preakness style security and rules (although that is incredibly doubtful)

Dear college student -- tell your mama that your college education is paying off! Virgin Festival tickets are selling mad fast, so you were smart to get on it right away. With a line-up like ours, the show is DESTINED to sell out. Tell all your buddies only the early worm gets the Chilis, the Killers, the Lips, the Racs, the Truckers, the B-Girls, and, of course, the Who. See you on the 23rd.
Q: SlyJMU: So I wanna see the mainstage headliners, but I also love Tiesto, who I'm assuming will be headlining the DJ Tent. How long 'till we can expect the full schedules so we can figure out where we're shakin' our asses?
A: VirginFestival
Dear Charlottesville Tiesto Fan,
Rest assured a schedule for each stage will be made available prior to 9/23. Meanwhile, practice that ass shaking cuz mine will be shimmying all over the dance floor all day long. See you at the tent!
