I am going on Sunday, but need someone to camp out with that night.

See you all there!

Got 2 weekend tickets. I'll probably be staying overnight in Barrie, in an air conditioned basement, rather than camping out.

For anyone who doesn't mind paying about $7 per band, which includes the Pixies, Sloan (you Americans are in for a treat seeing Sloan), Mutemath, Mew, etc., get your tickets from futureshop.ca: no convenience fees, no handling fees, just shipping and the facility fee/Virgin donation. Keep your money away from Ticketbastards.

ya pretty much this festival blows cock... going to see NIN one last time

fucking gay. i'm not going to this. over priced festival with shitty line up in the back woods of northern ontario. even if i did want to go, i can't get to barrie or whatever town its in. nah, sitting through our lady peace to get another short outdoor set, and end up spending that much money isn't worth it to me. and even if they did play an actual venue in toronto like in nyc, chicago and LA, i wouldn't get a ticket because of how the presales work on this site.

Sounds like someone is a whining little pussy with no car and no money......

"jeffster
Wow... and here I thought Toronto was the last time I'd be able to see NIN! I'm not a fan of any of the other bands playing at V-Fest but I'll gladly pay $100 just to see NIN one last time."


This is more of what we like to see. Sloan and Franz Ferdinand are OK, not a Lollapalooza by any stretch, but worth it for Nails. And BTW, who knows if this is going to be a "short-set".


Thanks Trent!

anyone who says the lineup sucks is probably not very well informed/has poor taste. Grizzly Bear will be there, Cold War Kids, a bunch of others!

I'd go if they happened to offer VIP tickets for one day only, at a one-day price level ... like that's gonna happen, though. It'll be great to see everyone's pics and vids...

Oh, and if you want to save money on accommodations I suggest trying [www.couchsurfing.org]
Just crash at someone's house in Barrie or ask to camp for free in their backyard. I couchsurfed across Arizona earlier this year and it worked like a charm. The people you stay with tend to be really cool eccentric types too.

its a risk im willing to take

I don't know if these festivals ever sell out, but I'm tired of looking for good tickets on kijiji once I get my ass in gear only to find out I'm too late. I bit the bullet and got a weekend pass. I'm not sure if I'll bother to make it down for saturday; a full weekend away from my family will be hard to justify. One day away to see trent one last last time ( or last last for a few years and then maybe back again) is certainly worthy.

I doubt I'll find anyone around Cambridge who will want to go, but should anyone in TO or area want a ride up and hang out at the fest, send me a shout.

Got home today to find my tickets in the mailbox. That was freakin' quick.
