    Why so much hate for BottleRock? I have been twice and I think it's a fun festival and quite well organized over all. All festivals have crowds and traffic. Personally, I find Ohana disappointing in many ways since it's so tiny with extremely weak food and beverage selection and no re-entry. Fewer bands at Ohana too but more expensive. 

    Seeing PJ at a festival is obviously not a regular PJ show but I'm looking forward to BottleRock and will be there the whole weekend and thoroughly expect to have a great time. Doesn't hurt that I like wine, beer and good food too...

    More power to you. I just look at the $456 price and would rather put that toward two or three headlining shows.
    I'm with NiteLite10 on this. Bottlerock is loaded with amazing artists. I love a good festival. Not sure if I'm going to do the 3-day pass, but I'm guessing 1-day tickets will run around $200, and that feels more than worth it to see a headlining PJ set plus a whole bunch of additional talented acts throughout the day.

    Code not valid. Please try again. - entering at the very bottom of the page where it says "Have a passcode? Alternate pricing may be available with a special code." (edit) I got it to work for GA... but won't work for VIP...  looks like that's what the issue was...

    Single day GA subtotalled @ $233.00, then
    the shipping
    $16.38 = Total $268.38 for 1 person, single day @frontgate tickets for this Bottle Rock Fest.

    I couldn't tell if the presale code went through or did anything. I had input [redacted. please do not post codes.], But it looked like it "disappeared" 
    when I submitted the order- not clear to me.

    I heard [redacted. please do not post codes.] code only for GA tix.  AMEX users may have code for VIP 1-day tix, or another code?

    I've been spoiled by Ohana and wanna do VIP given the chance.
  • ChrrieChrrie Posts: 124
    Bottlerock has half the stage walled off for VIP but that is one pricey ticket

    Not sure if this is the place to sell tix but I bought 2 3-day GA passes and can now only go one day. I am selling at face value. Wanted to offer them to a PJ member first.

    The passcode is only valid for GA tickets

    Reminder: Please do not post or share codes. Thank you

    I do not get the hate for music festivals. Of course dedicated arena shows are preferable, but I have never had a bad time at a music festival. Hang with friends, hear a ton of live music and have a good time.  PJ playing is just a bonus. I always think of festivals as a party with friends and PJ as the house band.  Napa sounds like a good time and there is enough in the line up to make it worth it.

    Only an hour drive for me, pumped to finally be able to see MMJ live, been waiting on them and missed out on their tour last year. Still will try and pull off Sacramento if I can but arena/festival are def two different experiences, just gotta enjoy it and adjust expectations appropriately.

    Thought about it, but the timing is not good from a work perspective. Friends in Napa have been trying for many years to get me out there for bottle rock. One of these years I will do it.

    I managed to see MMJ seven times last year. They’re playing on another level now, you won’t be disappointed! To get them and PJ on the same day is awesome. They give it their all even if it’ll be a shorter set than usual.

    Some are great, some are bullshit and overhyped by influencers and the media now (i.e. Coachella) where you're paying $500-1000 to see maybe 2 headline acts and a bunch of unknowns and DJ sets.   Not that these "unknowns" are bad or anything, but it's way overpriced just because all the influencers want to see crap like Megan Thee Stallion or Cardi B show off their asses and be disgusting.

    I love the Aftershock Festival in Sacramento and have been several years now.  Most of the time it's full of artists I would pay to see otherwise, and a few formerly-unknowns that I've discovered and now follow on their own tours after they got big.  And a few legends have played in recent years, like Ozzy himself, KISS, and Judas Priest.... I wouldn't pay to see them on tour since the tour tix are outrageous but it's cool to see them perform.

    That said....  Bottlerock friday lineup is MEH at best.

    If you are going to see PJ on Saturday, check out Mana!   They are my wife's favorite band and we've seen them many times, they are amazing!

         Good tip, Thanks- will check them out. 
       It looked to me like Friday was the only single day that hadn't sold out for this fest. Seemed to me Sat has been sold out first.
        I have enjoyed Aftershock a few times since 2017. Some of my family go to it every year.

    You can pretty much just stay at the main stage all day and see a lot of great music. I think Cold War Kids will put on a good show and Morning Jacket always puts on a good show.
