I'm curious to know how many folks managed to get their entries into the Mumford Nightgrass lottery.  I got shut out of all the lottery shows last year (my first TBF), and I'm keeping fingers and toes crossed for one of those coveted tickets this year.  With the short notice and all the lottery rules for Mumford, though, I wonder how big that pool of entries will be, and what the chances are of getting picked. 

Ah, well.  I guess we'll know Tuesday, right?  If anybody ends up with an extra, keep me in mind, and I'll do the same for you!

And with all the fantastic non-lottery shows, it looks like I'm going to finally see what this Nightgrass thing is about this year, regardless of whether I win the lotteries!

If that's indeed the number of entries, the capacity is 238 and assuming all of the requests were for 2 tickets, 3.8% of the entries will be winners.  In the words of the immortal Lloyd Christmas, "So you're telling me there's a chance!"

Does anyone know how many entrants there were in years past for M&S?  I'm curious what kind of impact the new lottery rules had on this show.

That *was* a good one!  We all know perfectly well that the actual number of entries is closer to 6000.

coveted?

Yes, coveted.  I know some people aren't huge fans of Mumford, but I meant ALL nightgrass shows.  I would love to get tickets to at *least* one of them this year.

I'm getting ready to hit the second lottery at midnight tonight.  The only problem is that there are multiple shows I want to see on each night.  Fingers crossed!

Do you think that just because you're not interested the tickets aren't coveted?

Best of luck in the second lottery, hope something pans out for you that you're after!

I'm not sure what the threshold is for being "coveted"?  I'm sure they're coveted by some, but almost certainly not by all.  I guess that's what makes the world & TBF go around, we all have our own personal tastes in music.
