Dark Lord (2018)

“Hey, you’re right. Here’s your 2 vintage bottles!”

 

I like your thinking.

 

You are correct sir, you may bring in 288oz of beer, but then we will flag your wristband to now have a chance of two vintages... your choice.

 

My wristband tracking # is now showing an estimated delivery of Thursday, 5/3. Post count on this thread should jump once folks start getting their wrist bands and start posting pics.

 

What an amazing two days of beer news. Great time to be alive.

 

Seconded--fuck their cockamamie processing fees!!

 

Who still has last year’s email to compare? Lol

 

I feel for the person whose inbox is now getting flooded. A suspect we'll see a correction on Twitter and on darklordday.com.

 

my wrist band has been flagged for weeks, no sweat.

 

I saved mine. Here it is:

GETTING TO DARK LORD DAY

Parking is limited around the festival grounds and we recommend securing a seat on one of the Chicago based Shuttles. This is the safest and most convenient way to get back and forth to Chicago.

ENTERTAINMENT SCHEDULE

We will be sharing the band schedule next week on our festival website.

BOTTLE SHARING

There are several rules in place with regard to bottle sharing:

1. No wine or liquor is allowed on the premises.
2. Beer brought in must fit in your backpack and may not exceed 288 oz., which is the equivalent of one case of beer. No flip top jugs, growlers, or small kegs will be allowed. Backpacks should be of standard size (approximately 10” X 10” X 16”, able to fit in a milk crate), no frames and no wheels.
3. Beer that is brought into Dark Lord Day may be consumed or traded.
4. Beer may be carried out of the festival grounds, but it must be in sealed, unopened containers.

Thank you for your cooperation in closely following the above provisions when you come to Dark Lord Day 2017.

REMINDERS

Dark Lord Day is a rain or shine event.

A variant will not be guaranteed. You will receive a variant or 2 vintage bottles of Dark Lord beer.

Thank you for supporting Three Floyds and have a safe/great time at this year's Dark Lord day.

 

Where is Sara White when we need her?

 

Seems copy and pasted for sure.

 

So they changed the date and nothing else? Fake news boys.



Lets hope.

 

I dont know.. the more I compare it to the exact same email from last year, the more I think this one was freshly typed and sent out this morning

 

We can't have anyone freak out, OK?! We've got to keep our composure!! We've come too far!! There's too much to lose. We've got to KEEP OUR COMPUSURE!!! (Slams chair against the lockers)

 

Last years e-mail:

 

If there are vintages I will be sad. Will still spy wax and try to not get.

 

Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick?

 

It amazes me how often they copy/paste shit and how often people fall for it. Note the comment about the band schedule as well, it's been up for a while.

 

"To make things fair for everyone, we are re-waxing all vintage bottles with this years silver wax, please do not try to game the system. Thank you for your understanding"
