    Have any of your been to this fest?  What is it like on the beach? Are people putting down towels and "claiming" space all over the beach?  Just curious.
    It's not on the sand....it's on the grassy park part of Doheny.  On top what everyone else responded to you with.

    now where the hell to stay?  I can't find a place anywhere around there except for 1400/night resorts
    Did you try close to San Clemente outlets? Shuttle from there

    Check the San Clemente area. I snagged a room at the Volare last October for about $250/night. Looks like it's currently available for about $350/night. Short drive to the outlets for the shuttle. Stayed there in 2019 and loved it. https://www.choicehotels.com/california/san-clemente/ascend-hotels/caf03/rates?checkInDate=2021-09-24&checkOutDate=2021-09-27

    How the heck did we not get advance notice if tickets being Ten members? By the time I got the email about the show from Live Nation the Sunday show was completely sold out. Does anyone know if they will release more tickets for the Sunday show?  If not, does anyone have 2 they would like to sell?

    This festival (with basically this exact lineup), has had tickets onsale for a year. I bought mine last summer when they moved it to this year. Weekend passes were still available last month.

    If any Aussie or Euro can't travel there in time, keep me in mind to buy 2 from you. Thanks.

    Have fun everyone who gets to go! Wish we could make it, but  my wife is a high school teacher and there is no way we can travel from Illinois to California a month into the school year. Maybe we get fortunate and they decide to play a few outdoor venues later in the Fall close enough to get to. Not likely, but stranger things have happened.

    John Wayne was the right combination of price and proximity for me.I did LAX 2 years ago to save money and it was a ripping pain in the ass getting back there on Monday afternoon.

    Thanks all for the insight.  Sounds like a fantastic time even with regular GA. I like to take it easy at fests and and mostly just have fun with friends and not worry about getting close. Sounds like the perfect spot.  Really glad to see Spoon on there, one of my favorite live bands.

    Didn't Broken Social Scene get dropped? Toronto based band last time I checked, so not surprising if they could not commit.

    Saturday adding Spoon and CWK raises the level of that day a lot. Both bands I would show up to see.
    Ugh - they did get dropped. That's a bummer because they are amazing but still plenty of fantastic bands to keep us busy (and of course PJ / EV).

    Recommendation request from those that have been there before.  Would you advise the shuttle (staying in San Clemente) or just plan on Uber all weekend?

    I like the shuttle a lot. 2 stays in San Clemente- 2 shuttle uses. Extend the vibe a little with fellow PJ fans.

    Uber can be a mess getting out.  May be waiting hours to grab one
