Word on the street: Virgin Festival will be returning to the MD/DC area in 2010 and the headliner is already in place.


wow

let me know how that turns out
still no processing fees refunded after two requests..  i guess this is a win for ticketmaster.
"Toyota, official vehicle sponsor of #FreeFest, will offer free Prius "test drives" for fans to shuttle themselves between stages @ the event"


whaaaat. just how far apart are the stages?
I like how Seth said not a word about whether VFest 2009 was even happening, but is quick to shut down rumours of a VFest 2010 headliner already being booked (an obviously asinine idea before he even said anything). Maybe he's only commenting on even-numbered years' festivals? Or does he go media incommunicado on August 31st?
It better not be Lady Gaga, otherwise it would be Virgin Mobile Ladies Edition Festival.

Is the 2010 headlining book confirmed?
So much for that whole free thing with ticketmaster not refunding fees yet.  What a joke of a "festival"
I got my refund late last week.  It is doable.  Thanks IMP.
If anyone has any last minute changes in their plans and ends up with an extra ticket, please let me know.  I've been trying craigslist, but cant find one for under 50 bucks
As if this poor people shitfest couldn'e get any worse… Book The Band is back!

Alesana, Black Gold, The Providence, Iglu & Hartly, and The Birthday Massacre are battling it out to see who sucks the least!!
hmm I take it you are not going.

You have to be shitting me. Was there ever any question?
oh I see couldn't get tickets
meh to those choices. But it doesn't seem like there is a "hollywood undead" this year, thats always a good thing.
Are they still going to release any leftover tickets the weekend of the festival? I really want to go, but like the poster above me, I can't find tickets for under $50.
Voting in the book the band contest can result in possibly winning tickets

do NOT pay those stupid prices.  as the date draws nearer you should be able to get a ticket for much, much less than that.  maybe a boardee will have a change of plans and will be able to hook you up for free.  i suspect that the scalpers crawling the parking lot on the day of the show won't be able to ask for much.  and some tickets will be released in the days leading up to the festival (i think people have until Aug 28 to pick up their tickets, otherwise they will be re-released).
That means bad news…. BAD NEWS.
Actually on another note, that doesn't look bad. Sprint is helping with Virgin Mobile's economic downfall. But Sprint needs to fix their service before they buy a mobile phone company. I just wonder what it will mean for next years Virgin Mobile festival. But I don't think it will affected as (if it is confirmed) that seth booked a headliner for the 2010 festival.
does this now mean that the band's sound will be going in and out through the speakers depending on where the crowd is standing?
