oysterhead Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 So question......I see that tix for jubilee are selling fast...any idea how many? Just thinking about how many people will be going. We decided to go back again because of crowd size last year. I'm hoping for about the same size crowd but wouldn't mind a few hundred more...just don't want an all-good type crowd.... any feedback would be great. oh and this year the wife and I are going by ourselves ..our friends have decided on del fest so we are hoping to find a few people to camp with.

Forum MVP GoingBackTo Where.... Posted March 21, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 How many would you say was there last year? Earlier in this thread, someone stated 3000....which seemed like a small crowd to me---for such an event!! 3000, you could nearlybump into everyone during a 3 day dance trip:} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Dead duck Posted March 21, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Was definately small. Id say weather held most people that didnt pre-purchase away. Had rains from hurricanes. A TON of it. Also labor day weekend at end of summer after some had gone back to school or whatever. Was still a blast. Music was awesome and most rain came overnight. Going back this year and cant wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Rude Posted March 25, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 LOL No way 3k people were there last year. It seemed like maybe 1000 people to me with even less down by the stage. I hope more will show to make the band money, but loved the intimacy last year! Id say there werent more than about 100 there when the gates opened. That was another huge plus!!

Band Member robbok3 Posted March 25, 2013 Band Member Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 There were about 2500 people last year. Judging from our earlybird sales there will be more than that this year, but we will be doing everything possible to maintain the intimate vibe we estalished last year. Thanks to all who are coming.

Forum MVP Rude Posted March 26, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Yeah last year was amazing. Rain didn't phase me. Friday and Sat nights it didnt start raining til right after the last band finished. If it only waited 1 more hour Sunday, it would have been perfection!!!! Plus the rain forced 70's style shows b/c of the small stage and those are my favs!!!! Maybe the crowds seemed smaller to me because I saw several people leave b/c rain and many stayed up on the hill during the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP GoingBackTo Where.... Posted April 9, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Temps today got near 80 F. The spring fever is kicking in, and the days are getting closer!! Glad my days are getting busier, as its easier to keep of the mind!!! Camp fires are nice. I spent a lot of time backcountry anti-fire, but for reasons not impacted by this event. I get the no BYO fire wood. No need passing on more introduced species, but does any one know the cost of the wood? Plus, 3000 people--1000 campsites? How nasty does the air get? I have seen pictures, but nothing good of the scale and size of camping. Are there declared sites, or a field/woods and build your own. I imagine with fire, there would be rings. Typing my thinking, just wondering how that is set up. Imagine the same for VIP and GA. Anyone care to share, thank you kindly!!! Another question if anyone has thoughts----saw that there are no personal generators. I get that, pollution, not much noise, if a lil Honda or something, but could produce noise pollution with anyone setting up amps/tunes, but bunches of fires produce more nasty than gens---and much more fire risk? Perhaps gas containers came in to thoughts. I am on a ramble-----just curious, and thought to ask------ thanks again, and hope many of you are enjoying this awesome spring warm up:} The Cherry's are busting in bloom, the Bradford's just peaked, and dormant bulbs now offering awesome scents of spring life!! Swamp Jasmines pouring high fragrance into the evening air, while the bees are in a frenzy to exchange the blue prints for original life. Fucking amazing!!!! Warm wishes to you all----and please take a minute to enjoy the beauty of your natural environment. Solace comes in the simple things:} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gratefulfordso27 Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 enjoying the beauty today!! last year, due to weather, we were not allowed to have fires....so im not quite positive how that will work but i would guess rings. spots are not designated, basically a free for all for your favorite spot in the place..!
