Picking up wristbands for Companion Passes?

[jlrapp8]

I'm exhausted!

haha if people would read the questions fulling that the person has asked its not to hard to understand. the problem is people start giving answers that really dont have anything to do with the questions the person asked.

Last year and the year before, you could ONLY leave the concert if you had the camping wristband. Once you were in that was it. That is where the confusion is.
I guess this year it is a free for all, ins and outs for everyone, just can't move the car.
If we are missing something, we will find out when we get there.

exactly this year there are no camping wrist bands. but anyone with a concert wrist band can go in and out of every campsite. and if you have a companion car parking pass you can leave and come back as long as it within the hours posted. traffic will be horrible but it can be done.

Last year there were no camping wristbands. It was a hot topic when they announced it and I am 100% positive of this. It worked out just fine last year (but people did panic beforehand about the new rule because they were worried about their stuff at the campgrounds).

where did you camp last year? cuz last year they diffidently had yellow wrist bands for people in eld 2. and we had friends that walked in just fine without one and friends that were not allowed to come in without them. so they did have wrist bands at least for eld 2 they did

You did not need wristbands last year to get around the campgrounds. I promise. I was in tent camping but spent 3 nights sleeping in EDII and roamed around EDI. Can anyone else back me up? I remember how huge of an issue it was that anyone with a GA ticket could roam the campgrounds (before the festival, on this board). Everyone was really worried about it. It turned out ok, and all of our friends (Festival Fan, etc) who were in surrounding motels came to see us just fine.

Those were the GA wristbands! But you still HAD to have your tickets on you to get in and out of the festival. That was an issue too as a lot of people lost their tickets and security wouldn't accept just the wristbands.

um no. those are rv campiing wrist bands. they did not have GA wrist bands last year. tickets where sold though ticket master and ticket master did not do wrist bands. thats why they switched to front gates this year cuz ticket master does not do RIFD tickets. those yellow wrist bands say ELDERADO 2 ON THEM

i.give.up. Ticketmaster didn't send wristbands, you got them upon arrival at the campgrounds last year.

Here are threads from last year:

YES upon arrival to campgrounds. people that stayed off grounds never got a wrist band because they were camping wrist bands. if they were GA wristbands even people that stayed in motels or off the grounds would have gotten them but they didnt. They were not really enforcing the wrist bands in camping areas to much and yes i do agree alot of people were allowed to roam camping area's but once in a while they did stop people.
If they were GA wristbands they would not say eld 2 on them

Proof that you're crazy. I have a yellow wristband on here. I did NOT check into or camp in EDII. I checked into tent camping and got my wristband there. They do not say EDII (CLEARLY on my wristband) they say Stagecoach.

i'm laughing my ass off here.. who freaking cares about what happened last year....



Karena - sometimes you have to stop, *facepalm*, and realize you may as well be talking to a wall. don't waste your energy

yes i maybe wrong as 2 what it said on it. but it was not a GA wristband otherwise everyone would of had them. and only people camping had them. those where camping wristbands. they did not really enforce it at all. think they were used more for security to be able to tell who was camping. but they pretty much let everyone go into camping

Ahhh, you're so right. It's just frustrating because I am pretty well versed on Stagecoach and also I really like to be right if I know I'm right. LOL, Nick's the same exact way, so I've learned when to pick my battles. With him. Haha, gotta learn to transfer that to messageboards apparently!

i know you are very well versed on SC & you are usually right. just remember, it's not your problem if other people are confused or whatever. so not worth arguing with people!

Agreed. I'll practice that

[jlrapp8]

They prob allow everyone to roam about because there was prob. complaints about only campers being able to go in and out. IMO

yes most security let everyone roam. with or without wrist bands. but those were camping wrist bands. some of the people in the pic i posted had reserved seats and had yellow wrist bands so they weren't GA wristbands
