Non-Phish Shows/Meetups
#23

So far the official work from the MagnaBall website is (FAQ):

"WILL SINGLE DAY TICKETS BE AVAILABLE?

No, there are currently no plans to offer single day tickets."

That being said, unless they sell out the 3-day passes to capacity they should release singles cause Phish likes the $$$$.

Hope you were not waiting to get tickets.

Magnaball is Sold out.

#27

Yeah, I was surprised to see that. I wonder how many they sold.

#28

I keep saying I’ll go to the next fest, and then I keep finding that I’m a damn liar. :problem:

#29

My guess (based on no factual evidence nor even hearsay) is 40k.

#30

Capacity is 60k, so they probably sold around 60k

EDIT: RLM set a self imposed cap at 30k

That’s not cool.

#31

Thanks for the source link; really helped to figure out the thinking behind the 30K cap.

EDIT: I found a source from a local (Corning, NY) newspaper.

#32

Sorry about that, was posting in a rush.

That was also the source I saw. Though I just saw a .net post saying someone had been in touch with the head of security and he said there would really be 60k. Seems fishy though…

#33

30k sounds perfect to me. Should be nice a breezy! :thumbup:

#34

^I’m not going but yep that is a perfect number.

What I find interesting is attendance for superball was relatively close to these numbers and that was over a holiday with that tour being heavy on the NE dates.

#35

I think many many people were waiting to buy tickets at the gate or their plans didn’t fall in to place yet. Judging by the backlash, more than 30k people were planning to attend.

#36

True. But what maybe Another 1,000/1500 if you take that into consideration.

#37

If that’s the case there wouldn’t be much harm in a small rerelease

#40

leaving first thing tomorrow morning from columbus, ohio. 7 hour drive. i’ll have an ohio bobcats ez-up at my site. say hi.

#41

made it a point to go this year because if i didn’t prioritize it, i knew i would never go to one. best outdoor phish experience i’ve ever had was deer creek 03 camping for 4 nights so i’m pretty damn excited.

#42

Why are we complaining about not posting links? It’s so easy to google stuff.

We’re getting close! Hope to see all of you!
