The Bloody Beetroots will be there in 2014 and I think you will see some more Dim Mak (Aoki) and Zacks working together. I kind of half expect there to be a third festival launched in Nor. Cal. soon.

My clip popped open easily with a screwdriver. Insert and twist - popped right open.
So easy that a drop of glue could have been used to seal it back up again.

I think it is great. They can also differ the focus of the music. More music = better.

If you missed Capital Cities, you missed a damn good show. 1:30 pm. Even people crashed out in the upper bowl passed out from the night before were up on their feet dancing. Expect them to play an 8pm slot on the main stage in 2 years. It was almost as good as Girl Talk 2012, but at 1pm in the afternoon.

While it is fresh - Some rules and guidelines that came out this year:
1) No packs larger than 1 foot x 1 foot. They already had a "no large bags" rule, but now it has more definition. This was a rough rule, but it was being enforced on many. If the pack was a small or mid day-pack, then fine. But larger backpacks were not being allowed. There was stepped up enforcement on Sunday. You could take a pack, and a large blanket, and other things all separate, but just no single large pack. Crunch down the pack and carry the blanket and you were fine. Put the blanket in an expanded pack and you were turned back.
2) No hula hoops. Enforcement started mid-day I think Saturday. Some people got in with them and did things they did not like. They did not ask people that had them to leave, but they did not let more in after that event. I expect it to be a rule next year.
3) Showing up late without a ticket = no camping. Period. Even if your ticket is at will-call and will-call is closed. Even if your friends have your wristband and they are inside, you cant go find them, etc. They sent people to the Park-N-Ride out by the highway. This has always been the rule. This year they were pretty hard core.
4) To me it seemed 21+ enforcement was stronger this year. Even once you had a wristband, some people were carded a second time / asked to show ID. Standard sanction seemed to be people being asked to leave and banned for the day with sharpie pen written on them. If you saw someone with a "SA" or "SU" on the back of their hands, this means they were busted and banned for that day (Saturday / Sunday, etc.).
5) Don't slide the upper bowl in the rain. While it was awesome to watch the hordes of people take to the hill during Imagine Dragons, it looked like they kicked out about 8 - 10 folks. But this was only after they repeatedly asked people to stop with security standing right there telling people to stop, etc. People just ran right by the security. They could not catch everyone, but they caught enough where people eventually decided to stop. I guess real lesson on that one is: If security tells you to not do something... don't do it. Especially not right in front of them right after they tell you not to do it.

The grass in the campground never stays damp for long. If it gets too dry, try a slice of apple.

The added security doesn't care about your weed or SLR camera. They are about safety. It is a real issue, but not one to be worried about. But if you mouth off to the wrong security officer or refuse to let them see in your pack, you might end up on youtube.

Actually - Think it is newly relevant again. I have heard the security will be stepped up as well. Don't expect to be able to set your backpack down in the Banana Shack (El Chupacabra) and see it there in 15 min. Unattended bags will be suspect. There will be more careful screening of bags going into the event. But don't let this bother you as long as you don't try to take in cans of paint or something like that. Security is not looking for your stash of vodka or weed. They are looking at keeping people safe. As long as you are not a danger to yourself or others you should be fine. - And one more brief reminder: This is a private event. If someone asks to look in your bag and you pop off, "Go get a warrant" or any assertion of "rights" they may do just that, but you might wait in a holding cell until they do.

And no, the merlot is not for breakfast... breakfast is all about mimosas and the kir royale.

Terrace is pretty open and mellow. You will find lots of people to hang out with. Some are a little stand-offish, but most of us are easy going. Look for the collection of canopies and the 8 person porta-mansion anchoring the camp with the folding lounge chair collection and just slide on in. If you want, bring an extra pound of bacon for the breakfast buffet and a box of merlot.

You may be able to get Terrace Camping to hang out with all the super-douchey people that HG hates so much. It cost a bit more, but some people think the massage staff, heated toilet seats and sherpas that carry you to from stage to stage on litters of gold are worth it. If they don’t have tickets, go to the web page and look for the number. They are a separate company and not part of LiveNation.

The logic is easy. They are countering the scalper market. But for the $575 tickets, scalpers would be at $800+. Not only that, but with the idea that every so often more tickets will drop at face, this is holding the secondary market at bay. Remember, they sold 25,000 tickets. Dropping another 100 here and there is NOT going to be a dent in the over all ticket sales, except on the scalper market. I say LiveNation / Sasquatch is doing a great job.
