Rock on the Range Ticket Layaway Plan

Is it me, or are we getting festival information earlier and earlier? I mean, Bang Your Head! and Sweden Rock are already announcing bands. Bonnaroo launched a ticket layaway weeks ago and now Rock on the Range has announced a ticket layaway program. To compete, I would assume festivals like M3, Rocklahoma and the rest would be announcing soon. Rock on the Range is in my native Ohio so it's a fest I do every year. Here's the info on that layaway plan in case you are interested. Apparently this year will also feature so-called throw-back bands and to me that means Glam.

Following the debut of their first-ever early layaway program, full details are now available for 2011 ROCK ON THE RANGE’s VIP, hotel and camping packages. The seven unique packages--available beginning Monday, December 13--offer a variety of amenities include hotel and camping options, plus tickets to Friday’s pre-festival ROTR Fifth Anniversary Party at Columbus Crew Stadium. This year, America’s premier destination rock festival will celebrate its Fifth Anniversary blowout, May 21-22, 2011 at Columbus Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.

Sweden Rock, Wacken and Bang Your Head along with most other European festivals always start this early.

this hurt my brain to read!!! that's some pricey packages!

[MEWIZEMGIC]

Anyone buying General Admission Field Packages at these prices with no bands inked (and a four ticket minimum for layaway)? I may wait for my guaranteed soccer field space.

I guess I need to close my italics tab. Anyway, MEWIZE - I'll be waiting on GA as well.

This is cool but the big news of the day...I hear it is official. Alice Cooper is going to be inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. It's about time.
