I am looking for more information on this festival. The web site is somewhat vague as to what is included in the ticket prices. I see that there are package and individual venue tickets. Are all venues included with the packages or does one need to pay more for the headline shows? We will be comming from far northern Calif, so with the cost of airfare, lodging and tickets, this could be one hell of an expensive weekend and I want to do it up right. The web site is rather vague on this and does not provide any contact information. Any and all info will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
