while I have no personal experience... ^THIS^ More times than not, the people who say premier e camping isn't worth it are the same people who have never spent time in premier e camping in the first place. Bottom line is, there are those who feel the cost is worth it, and there are those who feel the cost isn't worth it. That's all that it comes down to. People just have to decide on their own if the cost is worth it to them.

I'm doing Premier this year, for what it's worth. You won't regret it. I barely had to wait for the showers. Some days it was instant. Another thing is the walk to the venue. I loved taking the bus back and forth everyday. Best of all, every morning I took a nice shit in a clean bathroom with running water. It was quite nice. Not to mention it's pretty cheap when you split it with 4-5 people.

Did anyone attend Squatch 2007 and stay in Primeire camping? We had about a 200ft radius around our rig and there was serious room for frisbie. It's never been the same.

Josh wants to go all out and get Premiere, I don't want to, I love sleeping to the sound of "DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE A-3 IS?! A-3?!" and "BORNN IN THE USA!... I mean, CAN!!"

I have an urgent question that needs answering (I'm freaking out since I don't know how fast shuttle tickets are going to sell out)
So my friend with a premier camping ticket is arriving on Thursday night while the rest of the campers (3 of us) will be arriving around Friday afternoon (from the Vancouver Sasquatch Shuttle). Is it possible that when she arrives she can get the four wristbands (one for her, three for her tentmates) and give them to us at a meeting place on the Friday afternoon? Or does the person/guard with the wristbands only hand them out to people who are with my friend at the time she shows the ticket?

I might be wrong, but im pretty sure nobody gets wristbands until you enter the festival on Friday. They just check tickets at the campground. So if everyone has their own tickets you'll be fine. She can park and you can meet her.

In my experience you get your Premiere, camping wristbands when you get to the fest. The people taking the passes try to just give it to the people in the car, but once you bitch a little and say you paid for four passes, they tend to concede the fact that you paid for them and you can do what you want with them. In premiere you'll have your camping wristband and then you'll get your festival wristband, which you can get before the long ass line getting in to the fest.

If you're in premier camping, they make you slap on a premier wristband immediately once you get to the campground gate. If you think they're going to give you more wristbands than you have people in your car, you might be dead wrong. I wouldn't want to risk it personally. They're generally nazis about wristbands. A couple years ago I put mine on too tight, and tried to get them to cut it off and give me a new one, but they wouldn't.

I've heard varying stories from friends that have done premiere in the past (never have myself). One year some friends could only get 2 wristbands 'cause that's how many people were in the car when they showed up and another year a friend asked for 6 and got them even though he was the only one in his car. I think it really depends on the security guard and the person asking (ie - are they nice? pushy? stubborn?)
If you're really worried, I'd suggest your friend camp in general on the Thursday night. Then when you guys arrive on Friday, you can all move to premiere together.

If you're willing to pony up money for premiere, you should also just consider staying at Wildhorse. It's $50 cheaper than premiere, the food is better (two words for you: wild burger), and the atmosphere is more low key (which may not be what some of y'all want). It's offsite but it's only a mile away and there are shuttles every half hour.
