    Seems like it’s done raining already. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Just want to vent here.  Kinda done with the mess that is the merch tent.  In line for 4 hours (got there at 9AM opened at 11 got to the front at 1).  Right when we got to the front they sold out of posters.  I know that happens but what pisses me off is that people were buying 10-20 each.  Although it says 2 max it was totally ignored.  Also saw many in front buying literally what must have been 2-3K worth of other merch which I am sure will end up on Ebay by tonight.  Very frustrating for real fans.  Done venting, off to the show
    They are already on there for over $100. 😡why do they even sell the merch outside of the festival? It should only be sold inside, so at least the flippers have to pay for a ticket. I hope to get a poster next week at encore weekend but if crap like this is going on then who knows if I will be able to get one. 
    Preach. It’s bullshit.

    Good to know. We hadn’t gone in yet. Probably going around 6.

    Black Pumas were on the app and now they are not. Am i reading into this that they cancelled an hour before they were to hit the stage? With KOL out tonight this would be another massive blow.

    Second, the gates are open again? It is 450pm and no message via the app. Would like to head to the gate to avoid the madness when gates open
  • Did anyone take the shuttle in? How was the parking in Aliso Viejo at the shuttle site?

    Check the merch tent inside.  The one closest to the VIP area.  For years no one ever went to that one.  Granted that may have changed in the last festival and this one, but i got zippos and anything else there, mid show 2nd day

    Thanks for the tip. I figured trying to find stuff inside was probably going to be the best bet.

    I got in. Secret merch spot. Over by VIP entrance to the actual stage , as in leaving VIP to GA, is a merch tent with literally no line. VIP or GA access 

    ok thanks for info on black pumas. They def were not on the app for a few minutes I guess during an update 
  • Plague Vendor was the highlight so far. Amazing band.

    Thanks!

    ( saw them a few years back, & thought they were good, so did my +1 at that time. Glad to read ur opinion...the lead singer kinda had moves similar to Mick Jagger, in my opinion only-  it was fun! )

    Exactly my thought! A mix of Mick and Iggy Pop. But that bassist and drummer.

    Thanks for the tip! I'm going tomorrow and Sunday, and will plan on finding this tent. According to the map on the Ohana website, it looks like it's roughly between the VIP bleachers and the GA bleachers. And you don't need a VIP pass to get to it?
