not only that, but didnt you have to pay 3 seperate handling charges for all of the tickets? at least with the 3 day pass they package it all together like it's one ticket in itself.

yeah i was pretty disgusted how ticketmaster double dipped when i bought my three day pass and camping at the same time. $26.40 in convenience fees then some other processing fee on top of that. i can imagine it's even worse when you buy tickets for each individual day, did they charge you $13.20 for each day plus camping? not too long ago live nation were supposed to be the ones that would compete with ticketmaster and drive down fees, but now they're trying to merge.

In all fairness using ticketmaster is about as "convenient" of ticket buying experience as I could ever hope for, they really run a tight ship over there....

It is no more convenient than say, ticketswest (which many of our native PNW board members will be familiar with) which charges a third of those fees, at best (I mean hey, operation costs have to be in there somewhere right?)

yeah when I went to Pemberton in Canada (which was distributed by a different company) I remember it being pretty similar but when I went to Roskilde in Denmark the tickets were about $300 and they only hit us with about $6 in service fees (which included the mailing of the tickets)... either it costs 4x more to internationally distribute tickets out of north america or someone's up to something...

^^ I have the same problem, my best advice would be to gently massage the area using a light salve, and it should clear up in 10-15 days. Best of luck, I know it can be painful.

Yes, it appears Saturday is sold out. I thought Sunday would be the first day to sell out, but ticketmaster.com is giving the message they give when tickets are sold out, for Saturday only. There are still three day tickets on sale, so I might guess this is so they sell more Monday tickets. They will probably put Saturday tickets back on sale at a later date if this strategy doesn't work. |

Yeah I looked again and was able to find 3-day passes. You are most likely right about Saturday tickets going back on sale.
