Thanks! 30k per day is what they estimated. I think Friday was a bit less.

Advance tickets sold out already.

Pretty decent lineup... I'm not down for camping. If I went, I would book a room. I hope Lolla gets some of these smaller bands.

Are there any big festivals in the northeast? Newport Folk Festival has already sold out without announcing it's lineup! (Save a dozen or so most of whom are not big names.)

Governors Ball is the only one I'd consider on par with the bigger festivals, even Newport.

Gov Ball has a great line-up this year, except for their silly third headliner, Axel + Friends.

And Orion moved to Detroit and the line-up stinks this year.

the whole 'free' ticket thang for Virgin Fest is a clusterfuck and major headache.

I haven't had trouble getting them. Got them 3 years in a row. They also offer the $50 ticket which is still a good deal.
