Gold rush tix are sold out, early birds are on sale March 25. Congrats to those of you who were able to get them, and much thanks to the ones who sent out the alert!
I didnt end up getting any but it was still cool to try something different and made things a little more exciting than just hitting refresh all day.
Much love to everyone who participated. Feel free to shoot me an email if you hear about other cheap ticket opportunities and I'll post them up on the board. And if you havent done so already, check out Vampire Weekend and Company of Thieves, two great bands that should play at Lollapalooza.

instead of subscribing
OK so....
if you'd like to be added to the eblast announcement for gold rush tickets just send me an email to pioneer989@hotmail.com and I'll add you to the list.
The 'subscription' option to the right has a mad delay on it so it's not worth using.

FeedBurner
I just figured out a faster way to get the message out through FeedBurner. Instead of 'burning the feed' (which is a little complicated), or sending me your email address (which is becoming a bit too cumbersome), you can just 'subscribe' to this blog by entering your email address in the box to the right.
This way I can just post the announcement and everyone will get an email alert immediately.

lollapalooza gold rush
OK y'all. Here goes...
Now this year, as you all probably are well aware, those in charge of lollapalooza have decided to announce the discount 3-day passes on their website instead of announcing it through email announcement, they call it the lollapalooza gold rush.
This does not work out so great for me because, although I can reply to an email within 5 seconds, I don't have the time to log on to the website every 10 minutes to see if they have posted the link.
For all you music fans out there who know that $60 for 3 days of lola is a ridiculous deal, I know that you'll appreciate what I am about to do for us...
The purpose of this blog is to serve as a mechanism to announce to me and everyone who subscribes to this blog when the link to the $60 becomes available and the lollapalooza gold rush is in full effect.
http://www.lollapalooza.com/
**IMPORTANT**
If you decide to get involved in this ploy you must understand that it will only work if all of us continue to check the lola site a couple times a day AND if you should see that link (after you click on it, of course) send an email to me at pioneer989@hotmail.com so that I can post it to this blog and alert the rest of our community that the tickets are now on sale.
The way I see it, the more you all twitter this post and draw attention to it, the better the chances we have at winning the lollapalooza gold rush. Even if half the people who received the email from lola subscribe to this blog, we all have better chance than the half of people who know about it.
GOOD LUCK!
P.S. This is in no way an offical lola sponsored site, just something that I came up with to help like-minded people increase their chances of getting those passes.
