Wow. That's some big news. Now we need some more dates (and preferable no more radio station festivals).

Smiley · 11-07-2002, 12:59 PM

that's a good line up...

Netphorian Gadabout · 11-07-2002, 01:02 PM

It was an awesome lineup before they announced Zwan, now it's freaking incedible.

More bands are coming, but none could be bigger then that.

Electron52 · 11-07-2002, 02:15 PM

man I wish I was still an intern there! I worked both days of the hfstival in may. was intesne. that line up doesnt hold a candle to this!

Sign up to be an HFSdotComrade from the www.whfs.com website. They haven't sent out the presale emails yet so you may still be able to get in on it.

Can we really blame them? "Zwan" doesn't sell out a venue... "Zwan w/Billy Corgan" does.

Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!

I'll see you kids there! Woohoo!

BlueStar · 11-07-2002, 07:08 PM

Didn't it take like, less than two minutes for some of the Cali shows to sell out?

Yeah, but there's a big difference between the Glass House and the MCI Center. Most people don't know anything about Zwan.

I BLUE BOLLY · 11-07-2002, 07:45 PM

BOLLY At the Nutcrackerball
But he said i can only see his Balls!

peabody · 11-07-2002, 10:48 PM

is it a seated show?

or is floor GA and the rest seated?

what's going on!

i suppose ticketmaster will tell me tomorrow.

I was wondering the same thing. It must be different types of seating since ticketmaster has ticket prices for the event listed as $29.99-$39.99.

dishpan · 11-08-2002, 12:54 AM

theres floor tix and seats tix, thats why theres two different prices. also, theres a 4 ticket limit for the floor, and an 8 ticket limit total. hey how do we know if its gonna be the end stage setup or the center stage setup?

peabody · 11-08-2002, 09:17 AM

has anyone gotten the presale stuff yet?

will they send it at like...9:54 or something?

i am torn between floor tickets and seats.

i think seats would be better, i don't wanna stand around and wait for the other bands to finish or anything. hmm.

sarmatianus · 11-08-2002, 09:21 AM

Doesn't look like we're gonna be able to openly tape:

"MCI CENTER - WASH,DC
NO CAMERAS/RECORDERS
99.1 WHFS PRESENTS
THE HFSMAS NUTCRACKER
DOORS OPEN AT 5:30PM
FRI DEC 13, 2002 7:00PM"

Well, if that's the case, then I'm not gonna bother to lug my DA-P1. And my video cameras are TOO good and too big to possibly even make it through security. Well, shit.

Others will just have to stealth it. I'm kinda ambivalent about Zwan in an arena, but I know I'll be there anyway.

I got mine. But I think I got mine because I was already signed up for the 9:30 Club newsletter (the HFS festival is advertised on the 9:30 Club website). I'll PM you.

BlueStar · 11-08-2002, 09:50 AM

FYI, this is the e-mail...
