Any clue when they'll mail the RC tickets?

[PJAMVedder]

Any suggestions on where to stay? The prices in the area of the show on Hotwire are insanely high

I ran into the same thing. The F1 races are that weekend, so all of the hotels close to downtown or towards the racetrack are price gouging. I did find a few good deals on AIRBNB, depending on how many people you are traveling with. I ended up just using points at a Double Tree on I-35.

I have GA floor tickets for Thursday and GA balcony tickets for Friday. This will be my only Waterfall tour experience so I obviously want to make the most of it. I am a roll call member and I have my laminate, but am not up to speed on the items below so if someone can help me out, that would be greatly appreciated.

1. Soundcheck parties - Do they still do these? If so, what do I need to make sure I get in?

2. Early entry - How does this work?

3. Spontaneous Curation- Where can I submit requests?

Thanks,

JNP

They cancelled most of the soundcheck parties for this tour so I'm not hopeful we'll get one.

There is a website with early entry info that will be posted a few days before the show. Basically we'll be able to enter 15-30 minutes before the general public.

I've submitted all of my spontaneous songs through Twitter. There will be a show specific hashtag for each show.

[Cameron]

For the out of towners it's not just hotels to worry about F1 weekend. Traffic will suck. Uber will be surge pricing and streets downtown will be closed for events. On the positive side there will probably be some other good bands in town.

VRBO is worth a look

[amerry]

Has anyone received their rollcall tickets yet?   

[Cameron]

Mine shipped. One pair says it will be here Wednesday. The other pair hasn't moved in a few days.

[cacurry]

Local here - have two extra tickets for Thursday and two extra for Friday night if anyone is looking. Can meet before the shows outside the venue. Just asking face value for what we paid - $54 per ticket.

Looking forward to a great couple of evenings!

[Cameron]

Friday RC tix were just delivered. Thursday tix haven't moved in a week.

[PJAMVedder]

I've gotten my tickets to both shows

[Cameron]

finally to dallas after 8 days of not moving.  post office is a joke lately.

[tippitoes22]

I have a pair of balcony tix for both nights, I'd like to sell for what I paid for them.
1st nights my Bday. Just can't afford to make it. Bummed

PM - if interested

You say that like traffic doesn't suck?! lol  The shows are during the week, there's going to be tons of traffic per usual in Austin. But between Uber, Lyft, Austin Yellow Cab, Austin Cab and Capital Metro everyone will be able to get around, F1 is no SXSW in regards to transportation shortage. If you're looking for a limo or helicopter you might have issues 

Homeaway/VRBO/AirBNB are good options to check for rooms, this late in the game a hotel within walking distance to the venue will be crazy even if you can find one.

SO PUMPED FOR THESE SHOWS.

I managed to find an Air B n' B that wasn't super expensive. I have an extra ticket available for each night.
