"this fest is done after this year."
AEG can afford it. I bet they'll be back.

I just heard on the radio that the rain will end soon. so for a couple of hours rain everyone gets to go again?

THAT SUCKS
there are going to be so many people
now they're probably stopping door sales for tomorrow. and i don't have a ticket yet.
Posted by yfj | July 31, 2009 7:26 PM
if they want tix to sell they should try to put together a better lineup. if i can see the name 'crystal castles' on a promo poster from afar, we've got a problem.

They probably need the numbers anyhow.

"now they're probably stopping door sales for tomorrow."
I wouldn't assume that. Also, you can probably easily scalp one now.

Coachella wasn't really a hit when they first started. People should give APW a chance.
Posted by Anonymous | July 31, 2009 7:45 PM
Coachella didn't sellout until their 5th year.

There was no wait for the ferry at all this year. Definitely the best way to go

well, now i regret not getting a ticket on craigslist tonight for $20.

Haha. It's amazing people can complain about something like this.

goldenvoice isn't too bad

The only reason they would ever do this is because they didn't sell enough to make a difference anyway. Companies never do nice things just out of the kindness of their heart, EVER.

They'll make up for the slow ticket sales with lots more concession sales this way, and everyone with friday tix gets a free show. It's for their benefit, but it's really win-win. Just cuz it's not out of pure goodness, doesn't mean it's also malicious.

this awesome, now I feel like a chump for buying a ticket for sunday. next year im waiting

What time does Daft Punk go on?

Any ticket holders? even those who won for free?

who's got mt STUB?!
Posted by fwwank | July 31, 2009 9:27 PM
8:12 is completely right. i doubt it will be overpacked tomorrow. it was under-attended if anything today. i was able to walk up to blue comet at any time of the day and get a decent spot to watch the band.
Posted by Anonymous | July 31, 2009 11:25 PM
it's confusing that people are bitching about a free show. who cares if apw is making more money due to concessions? you can see elbow and echo and the bunnymen gratis.
Posted by monsoonseason | July 31, 2009 11:32 PM
I'm shocked that apparently no one actually took time to correctly read the statement on the APW website. Your friday single ticket is honored either Saturday OR Sunday. Not both. Go to the website and verify it. No one needs to worry about anything being overpacked. Saturday OR Sunday, people.
Posted by Matt | July 31, 2009 11:34 PM
Matt, nobody thinks you can use it both days.
Posted by Anonymous | July 31, 2009 11:41 PM
does it matter if i bought a 3 day pass? I want to take one of my friends along with my friday stub but I don't know if they're going to let that slide.

i have a boner

I saw this at 830 and got off my ass to scalp a ticket so I can see Jay-Z and have another full day of music.
I managed to get one for twenty bucks. Jay-Z was pretty disappointing (bad song selection, no special guests) but at least I'll get to see St. Vincent, My Bloody Valentine, Neko Case, Trail of Dead and Crystal Castles.

i bet if you used ticketfast, you could just print the sheet twice and use it both tomorrow and sunday. ticketmaster isn't set up to scan multiple events simultaneously. they'll likely mark the friday stubs for those with hard tickets, but if you used ticketfast -- congrats, you've pretty much gotten yourself a three-day pass for the price of a single ticket.

The lead singer of Vampire Weekend (who sucked) announced it. And no one cares which day you go.
Posted by Venkman | August 1, 2009 1:52 AM
@ chinesepenny, what else are you selling? I am happy to meet you in Battery Park, but I don't need APW tickets.
Posted by Anonymous | August 1, 2009 2:15 AM
so what if it rains just as much or more on sunday? what do you get then? free water wings for your swim home?

Only the 2nd night, yet it was still easy to find a cheap ticket.
