I'd like to hit up Camp Bisco this year only because its 20 minutes from me & I've yet to go. But I hear really great things about All Good.

i dunno it was just so fucking hot the whole time, police (undecover and uniform) were everywhere and hassling people and i didn't really think many of the bands played that well. that was the first time ive seen furthur and it was a total letdown, they didn't even finish out there time slot and played like they were the 70 year olds that they are. just not worth the price of the ticket in my opinion, although i will say i did have fun.

Allgood sent me a message that said the big announcement is coming soon. I think they like to save the best for last. They always have the best lineup out of all the festivals. I can't go to it this year because I have a family thing to do. I really don't want to go to ohio either. I hope next year they move it back to the mountains.

I'm thinking about trying out high sierra music festival this summer. I've heard some good things about it and i've never been to the lake tahoe area. Just gotta round up some friends who're interested. Or I might go travel to see some bits of tours

Oh yeah I meant buy a vending spot, that is definitely the way to go.
I vended the first Aura, wanted to do the second, but my home burned down, then somehow missed the info on this years...
Wanee wants $1K to get a vending spot there, so that is pretty much out of my price range.
Waka I've done the past 2 years, but this year's line-up was so-so, so I wasn't sold...
Thanks very much everyone!!!
WOW! wannee wants $1K to vend? I would think theirs would be less than Waka or EFF, but I guess wannee looks like its grown a little bit this year..more and more folks head down to live oak...
Ya, I wasn't too sold on this year's waka lineup but its mulberry so it'll be great regardless I expect..plus the Waka team always does a great job at eclecticism and getting small bands that I won't even know- but know I'll love many of em. I actually ran into ya dw, at waka '10- bought one of those killer DMT mandalas you made- need to PM ya bout getting another of those- anyway I think I'm going to hit lightning in a bottle for sure- heard so many great things- also gonna try to do burning man- never made it before- and if cheese announces a horning's hideout fest (I've heard they are) I will be there hopefully.
Here's what I'ma try to hit on the east coast: - Aura is going to be great I expect http://www.auramusicfestival.com/
EFF (YES!)
Waka
Wannee
SummerDance (lotus fest)

Yeah wanee is pretty expensive, but it is nothing like the mother-of-all-ridiculously-expensive-vending-spots-at-festivals - ULTRA
They want $8K
Since I hand make all my stuff, there is no way I could ever clear the money back to make it worthwhile. I wish there was some way to get them to do like a crafter's artisans market...make the prices reasonable for people not buying glowsticks by the boatload from China and reselling...
And thanks for the support! Yeah I actually love Waka and that whole area...beautiful spot!

Miami is the only place they get away with this type of shit. Ultra tix (entrance) had an 'early bird sale' that i got online for 15 min ahead of time. While trying to buy my shit the site crashed and i couldn't check out. I tried for the next hour to get tix and finally got in, but the price went from like $150 to $250because they sold out of the 'early bird' shit (impossible to get.) Then when i tried to buy they declined my card for no reason. (had plenty of $$)
My girl (who had already bought her ticket) went back on and tried to buy me one and her shit got declined because you are/were only allowed one transaction per card.
Finally I had a third person successfully buy my ticket. The catch: each ticket had an additional ~$45 'service fee'
So I started out thinking I would get my ticket for $150 and ended up paying $300 (DOUBLE!)

yeah ultra sells out fast, which is pretty crazy when u think about it, how many festivals sell out months before it happens? just shows how popular EDM is now, its ridiculous compared to like even 4 years ago when i got into it
300 is a lot for a fest where u dont camp out at, plus u gotta get a hotel and shit and pay for afterparties and shit...so basically you need to have a LOT of disposable cash to go to ultra
at camp out festivals, they dont have afterparties, they just have latenight sets and even silent disco's, its free and better...u dont have to leave the festival at 12 like ultra and have to figure shit out when ur spun either, ur just at the campgrounds the whole time
EFF is like 250, bisco will be like 180 probly again...and id much rather rage a festival like those than ultra anyways

Ultra is actually outside my front door, I can see it from my window. I sat out front and vended on the sidewalk last year, the cops even had a spot where they wouldn't bother you, THAT was actually pretty cool.
But yeah a festival where you can't camp? WTF? A good friend of mine works hospitality and can get me in free every year, so I usually go to check out the madness, but he can't get my whole vending booth in...
BUT I did talk to some guys at Wakarusa who guerrilla set up their vending booth at ULTRA a few years back. They said they were merchandising for some performer and made a big deal, so security just left them alone - I was impressed!
