Gate crashers
Post by Rhythmdvl on Aug 29, 2013 14:01:17 GMT -5
Comments here, on Reddit and a few Facebook posts have mentioned gate crashing in various ways, ranging from arriving early to force them to open the gates before Thursday to swarming the VIP areas. I haven’t kept up on social media behind festivals (I joined Facebook a week or so ago just to read Interlocken comments), so have no idea if it’s typical or just a small vocal minority letting off steam. Is there usually this kind of chatter? Is it uncommonly high or low? Or could we be looking at another Deer Creek ‘95?
Clearly there’s no real answer, just looking for opinions and anecdotes.

1. VIP ticket holders have supposedly received communication if they show up Wednesday they will be lined up in a field adjacent to VIP entrance and allowed to spend the night there entering at 9am on Thursday.
(Possible, I'd say even likely since they were promised early arrival/checkin)
2. GA ticket holders haven't been told anything except not to show up before 9am on Thursday. I'm guessing any GA folks showing up Wednesday or wee hours of Thursday will be asked to turn around and leave by local po po.
3. At some point early morning Thursday they let people start lining up (maybe starting at 5 or 6am?)
Hopefully we'll hear a more definite "rule" or procedures over the next few days???

I just thought at first it was some kind of joke on the VIP, since I have previously emailed CID about early entry, and didn't get that recent email. I guess I emailed too far back for them to update me. No bad vibes....

Holy shit that's spot on. Deer Creek became something of a pilgrimage for me and some friends--all on the east coast, but heading to Indiana (Indiana?) was an awesome summer highlight. Missed it in '95 (thank jeebus) to take in some ABB that year. Good choice/not good choice. So sad such an awesome venue has that attached.

Hope you're in preferred tent camping so you can leave!

This is *NOT* true in most of Virginia that I have visited. I live in Richmond, so maybe I'm just too much of a city boy... but I believe 2am is the limit for beer sales.
