I am a complete TBF virgin but looking to break my duck in 2009.

Can anyone help me out with the basic stuff - how to get tickets, how early I can get tickets, where to stay/camp etc. Two of us will be travelling from the UK and flying into Denver and prob hiring a small car for the duration and then touring onwards.

It looks a fantastic festival, to attend would be a dream realised.

Thanks

Town Park offers the best experience in my opinion. Planet Bluegrass holds a lottery, I beleive in November, for those tickets.  to thoroughly enjoy the Town Park experience, you'll want to arrive early enough for ABGAT (Advance Bluegrass Assault Team).
read through the threads on this list and most if not all of your questions will be answered. anyone here will be happy to answer any questions you may still have.

We've had lots of folks in the last few years make that same adventure.

Mark,

You are very wise to begin planning this early.  Many of us were planning for next year's festival before this year's festival was even over.  Read through Courtney's links and that should take care of many of your initial questions.

We've had several UK visitors the last couple years from Isle of Man and also Chelmsford.  Hopefully next year they will all return.  If they do come back then perhaps you guys can set up a British colony in the campground and then we can sneak into your camp at night and dump all your tea into the river!!!  Wouldn't that be fun?!?  Just like old times!

I was apparently slip some drug, either in my rum drink or my mushroom tea, and found myself the next morning waking up naked in a stranger's tent sticky. I can't recall much more than that, but I wasn't called a virgin no more.
