Ha! Last year, I used my Premiere Camping pass to get into the VIP area by the comedy tent and had at least three meals there. Then they got wise.

I was just looking into the VIP pass after seeing it mentioned here. Doesn't sound like you get much for your money.

I would have to agree. I was contemplating buying VIP tixs for this year (if the line up convinces me) and was looking at what all you get for the cash.....and I'm thinking: not much. But I wanted to see what others, who have had the VIP package in the past thought.
What are your opinions? Is it worth the dough?

I'm not a first timer and I asked this somewhere else, but I can't find it so I don't know if it was answered...
but how close is the premiere and general camping. I love the showers and shuttle, no I am not high maintenance or lazy, I just like the convenience. But I also love to party until the wee hours and last year that did not happen in premiere, which is what I expected. But I was thinking it would be fun to get all fucked up and go to general and socialize there. How easy would that be?

Thanks for the tips you have posted. This will be my first time coming this year, I am an avid coachella goer so this seems to be a lot different.
I am really excited about the venue and the different vibe I am sure this has. I am sure I will be adding questions here over the next couple months

i think the partying in the camp area last year was the best it has been since 05. i like the anonymity of being part of an almost unnavigable sea of cars, tents, coolers and people. pounding beers before and after the shows...oh i miss sasquatch

Last year tickets went on sale the first weekend of March. The lineup was a week later than usual last year though. I don't recall when they went on sale in 2007. I'd bet Saturday February 28th.

Are you asking if the premier camping is near the general? You didn't see the general camping last year? I guess there is that big fence separating premier from general, but they are right next to each other. Maybe I am not understanding your question.
We often wander around with pockets full of beers hanging out, finding people to party with, so sure, come join us in the general, party goes until 6am.
