Last year's pre-sale announcement.
So I know I'm just kinda softballing it in there for snark but here we go... Does anyone remember when the announced the dates for pre-sale ticket sales last year? The sale wasn't until the end of January, but does anyone recall when the announcement was made? Things I already know...
1) This is not last year
2) What happened last year has no bearing on what will happen this year (I'm just looking for a ballpark timeframe here people)
3) Chicken soup is good for you when you have a cold. Also get lots of fluids... hydrate.
4) They will make the announcement when they are #^%$ well ready.

Re: Last year's pre-sale announcement.
I'm thinking this is wrapped up in the discussions they are having about pnp also. I would imagine everything to be a bit delayed this year.

First thing I've found with a date is January 9th

Re: Last year's pre-sale announcement.
Great thanks!!! I missed the announcement last year. I just remember thinking "Hey I wonder if tickets have gone on sale yet?" , "Oh look presale has been on sale for 2 days already." Had a kind of white-knuckle experience obtaining a ticket this year and plan on being a little more proactive considering the mad dash seen in the individual/OMG sales... which I anticipate will be worse next year.tamarakay wrote:First thing I've found with a date is January 9th

Good luck omegared, but I'm pretty sure the restraining order in place is going to effect the plans for one of us.

lonesomebri, There was a restraining order taken out against Camp Threat??? Not SUPER suprising... You had the LEOs there enough times. Seriously it was like I was camped next to a police station.

Yes we are getting organized lonesomebri... BEWARE!!! Your attempts to get Burning Man cancelled will not go unpunished.

Re: Last year's pre-sale announcement.
Speaking personally and just guessing based on the last couple years, I would expect for ticketing information (including any presale info) to be made available in early January. We've had years where the details came before the end of the year, but I think making the announcement requires some kind of signoff by the BLM and that's not so easily done before the first of the year.
