Selling tickets for the subsequent year AT the festival?

I still think a lot of the headache could have been prevented if they had the architecture to actually account for massive spikes in traffic, but that’s just the software engineer bias I guess…

Being new to this forum, and this being my first post, I think whoever mentioned high demand was probably right about that being the reason for the quick sale. And the technology could have been better. But I was eventually able to get on by noon (EST) and get 4 tix.
I have been to TBF several times in the 80s and 90s, but life took over and have not been there since 2001. This is the 40th, and with my son now in college we finally said &*@#-it, let’s go back this year, and the festival gods were with us. Bet I won’t be the only old-timer there hanging out with the young ones. May even bring my guitar.
Looking forward to the hike to Bear Creek. Have done it in each of the last 3 decades, this will make 4. Cat’t wait to see all my old festival friends.
