If this is my chance to see NIN & HDTA this year, I will definitely need to go.

I may have to finally make the trip to Ashville. 5 hour drive, need to get hotels and such, but oh well. I was planning on trying to check out the real Moogfest in 2014, but this is definitely tempting me. I wish we knew all the tour dates, I'd hate to make that trip and find out they're playing DC or somewhere by themselves around the same time.

Boy did I pick the right time to move back to Asheville. Huzzah!! We should do a meetup/campout for the shows!

This is an hour away from my parents house. Asheville is awesome. I'm so going to this. . . Does anyone know these types of things work? Will NIN have separate tickets, or do you just need a festival wrist band? Both?

Oh wow, what a lineup! Hmm, this one or Voodoo? My bff has a house in Granite Falls that he's selling this year, only an hour away from Asheville. Would be nice to see the place one last time and go to this festival.

Road trip from Tampa might be feasible if I can get some people to go. Lineup looks incredible.

Plus, panel discussions? Hell yes.

I'm not going to miss this. Neutral Milk Hotel, NIN, HTDA, Godspeed... Yum!

Also, co-workers familiar with the area say that Asheville is a great place. Is it October yet?

I got my tix also. Wish I could do Voodoo just because it's Voodoo but this is closer to me and that lineup is really amazing. Plus all the venues are right in town and within walking distance from lots of hotels.

Our company is about to open a laser engraving shop in Elberton, GA (two hours away!) so I'm now going to try to extend this trip and turn it into some sort of business related adventure. ;)

The official tour page includes this show under the Tension arena tour... so I'm guessing we're getting the full stage production!

I have two all-festival passes for this that I'm looking to get rid of. They're the Wave 1 price and I'm looking to sell them at cost. Message me and let me know if you're interested!

Looks like the schedule has semi-updated. Line-up per day is available (http://lineup.mountainoasisfestival.com/?sort=day).

NIN on Saturday
HTDA on Sunday

I'm really excited for some of the other names though. Some I've been waiting to see for years like The Orb and J.G.Thirlwell (in collab).

I know this is listed under the Tension tour, but is there any way to find out definitively if this show will have the festival setup or the full tour setup? I'd hate to miss on the big production, especially considering this will be my wife's first time seeing NIN, and the Atlanta show is a few days before... thoughts?

Since HTDA won't be able to attend, does anyone need a wristband for Sunday?

I'm down for a meetup/campout ... i've been looking at the prices of all the hotels in the area and it's fucking retarded. Of course the hotels would double there usual rates. :mad:

My husband and I will be driving down early early on friday from baldmore; I've booked a 3pm tour of the Moog Factory :D ... super psyched to play about this ...

So ... does anyone here have any suggestions on where to stay ... my husband and I at this point have decided to just wing it ... and give a big FU to the hotels down there raping the music lovers of their blood money. (I'd much rather buy a moogerfooger than pay for a hotel ... ya know?!!!)

Hmmm, so the thought has crossed my mind ... sleep under some trees in one of the city parks ... So, who's up for meeting up and possibly coming up with a creative solution for a place to crash?

Oh! and if you're a gear whore ... call Moog and book/reserve a space for the factory tour ... cheers

On the festival's FB page, a post awhile back said it would be the full setup.

I asked the same thing on Twitter and they confirmed for sure, full set, full production.

I see the 'Activities' portion updated at some point.

There's a panel on Saturday with Gary Numan.
And Sunday Alessandro and Justin McGrath (http://www.theninhotline.net/news/permalink/1375505990) are participating in the Trash_Audio Synth Event.

Now for the schedule to be released...

Keep an eye out for unofficial events during Mountain Oasis as well. Last year Cortini did a short set at the Make Noise gallery: https://www.facebook.com/makenoiseco/posts/368841396537187

Wow..not sure I'm seeing that schedule (http://lineup.mountainoasisfestival.com/events/2013/10/26/) right. NIN at 12am to 1:30am? Kinda nice to have a late night show! :-)

I have an extra VIP 3 day pass or sale or trade if anyone is interested.. I've been to Lolla, Brooklyn and Newark shows so far and I need to see more. I just can't make it for Mountain Oasis. I'd be willing to trade this 3 day VIP pass(paid 436.10 with fees) for 1 or 2 11.16.13 Vegas tix and cash or best offer

Just bought my single day ticket to Saturday. Anybody ever been to this festival before? I have a slight concern about the civic center reaching capacity since it only seats 7,000 or so. Any thoughts?

Hi Folks, I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in trading my 3 We're In This Together CD singles for a NIN Tour shirt that I was too stupid to pick up in Boston when I had the chance. Private message me if you're interested.

So everyone may know this already or have seen it by now, but Rob said on Twitter that it will “not” be the full Tension production. It will be a unique show, because they can not bring in the whole Tension production. Just FYI.

well now I feel fucking ripped off. I should've just spent the money to go to Atlanta instead, especially after HTDA pulled out for no reason.

Just because things aren't explicitly stated for the fans doesn't mean HTDA cancelled for no reason whatsoever.

Oh, don't be sour about it. For all anyone knows, "unique" could mean that you'll get a setlist that'll be relatively (and possibly significantly) different from the rest of the Tension shows. You could be in for a real surprise. It shouldn't be about what shows have the best equipment and stage production, it should be about the band's performance.

This is sort of what I am hoping for since I saw them in Raleigh on Monday. If they play one of either Reptile, VMoE, or TDTWWA, I will leave happy.

When they have to change things due to the production being pulled, they tend to make up for that. I'm actually looking forward to the show even more now.

I am hoping the same for Voodoo. I'm sure it will be different.

Not sure but I don't think so. If they did it was very early.

5:15 update: this appears to be Gary Numan's soundcheck starting up. Either NIN did soundcheck early or will do so at the last minute.

maryelle
10-26-2013, 04:38 PM
I lost my goddamn wristband and had to buy another, which makes this by far the most expensive show I've ever been to, given that I really don't care about seeing anyone else. Except Numan but even he doesn't make this worth almost $300.

There is already a little line going. Wondering who they are here for. They don't clear the venue in between shows so once you're in you're in. Say hi if you're not shy. I have red hair and glow-in-the-dark skin. And orange shoes.

mrfang
10-26-2013, 04:54 PM
5:54: I think this is the Bosnian Rainbows soundcheck.

Official word is that outside doors to the venue open at 6, but doors to the inner arena itself won't open until 6:30.

K-Rice
10-26-2013, 06:30 PM
Currently watching Bosnian Rainbows from the upper balcony. I'm going to grab pit for Numan and then take a break during Godspeed and head back before they're done to fibd a good spot for NIN.Say hi if you see me. Long hair, tool hoodie, and doctor who/led zeppelin shirt.
