i think I've heard that before, it may be a rumor.

Anyone know the time schedules for the bands? Thanks

any word of a schedule or how one gets into the pavilion? will it be limited to the first people there (wristbands or something along those lines) or is it truly general admission - free for all for seats and pit area?

Is there a curfew by which time all bands must be finished?  I thought that was the case at Merriweather, but a friend tells me that Leonard Cohen played far in to the night recently…

plus $5 order fee……. plus $2 for printathome (no choice otherwise)……  Two $10 tix, in traditional TM way, now $33…..        (Yes I know that printathome is so MPP doesn't have to deal with willcall and there's no time to mail…..And I know the fees are reduced….. And a pair for $33 for a festival is a great deal……but the added 66% still gotta make ya laugh or cry)

funny, i could pull up 2 tix for $28:

Tickets (Virgin Mobile FreeFest) 
Full Price Ticket US $10.00 x 2
Total Convenience Charge(s) US $3.00 x 2

Order Processing Charge(s) US $0.00
TicketFast Delivery             US $2.00

TOTAL CHARGES US $28.00

looks like i wasn't charged a $5 processing charge (then again i WAS charged it when i first ordered my tickets, and it hasn't been refunded by TM… too bad, since i didn't buy the above tickets).
