You'll receive 3 seperate tickets. Typically the most popular day has been Sunday, although this year might be Saturday. People are always selling tickets for all days, which means you might be able to buy tickets there. People are usually pretty good about selling extra tickets for face value. Last year Monday very clearly had the least attendance which means selling tickets for the third day could be a challenge.

Last year I flew from Montreal to Portland and got picked up by my friend's little brother and his stoner friends. They were my ride back to Portland but they weren't to thrilled to find out that we wouldve had to leave at 5AM on Tuesday morning for me to catch my flight. I told them i would look for another rise back. I put up a makeshift sign reading " need ride early Tuesday AM". Within an hour I had another ride lined up from a couple from Portland. On Tuesday morning sure enough we groggily got on the road at like 5:30. We got to some T intersection and I thought we had to go right but she turned left and I said are you sure this is the right way? And she responded oh yeah. Seeing as though they were from Portland i took their word for it and fell asleep. Maybe an hour and a half later i woke up and could tell the driver was nervous, frantically looking around etc. Finally she said, yeah we're going the wrong way. Keep in mind I had timed it to just make my flight as is. I was secretly super pissed but i could tell they were upset. She turned the car around and at numerous points was going 200 km/h (I'm Canadien), it was a rental. Anyway they ended up dropping me off at the airport 20 minutes before my flight was scheduled to leave and I somehow made my flight. The only downer is that I left my girlfriends camera in their car and we didn't exchange info. So if anyone knows Wally and Wendy tell them thanks for getting me to my flight and ask them if they have my camera

Yeah, you really need to commit. You can either bring all your stuff in a backpack, and be forced to lug it around all day, or buy everything you need in the venue, which is ridiculously expensive. The ideal scenario is to stake out a piece of land with a crew, and come and go from there all day.

There are no lockers inside the venue. The ideal setup if you are with a big crew is to stake out a large piece of land, where you come and go from all day, and leave all your stuff there. Obviously at least one person would need to stay there at some point during the day.
