312 Urban Block Party

Yup very excited for this. BCBS ladled from the barrel (presumably 2012), plus at one of the ticket giveaways the Goose Island rep said that there will be several unannounced rare tappings, as well as several new beers.

I have a friend that might drop out of going so I would have an extra ticket. Not 100% sure, but if anyone needs a ticket BM me and I will let you know asap.

 

There's two different tickets though. The free tickets giveaways get you in for free but you pay for all drinks and food. If you know someone you get the tickets that you get in for free and all Beer and food are free. Including the ” Matilda tent”
Cough cough

 

got my tix... can't wait!

 

Hmm.

 

As an additional surprise, dontcounttoday himself will emerge from the BCBS barrel.

 

your speculation is admirable.

 

Hey now, lets not ruin the surprise!

 

Where did this info come from? The free tickets I got don't say anything about this.

 

Of course they don't say anything about the better tix. Have you ever been to any event/concert/game/etc? There is almost always some kind of VIP tickets that have more perks.

 

Insiders. no names. but the ppl with blue wristband there won't be paying for anything.

 

Won 2 tickets from the sweepstakes on their website. The email confirmation I got said it includes 2 VIP wristbands, do you still have to pay with a VIP wristband?

Point is mute for me though as I will be out of town that weekend and they don't appear to be transferrable. Bummed

 

I seemed to have opened pandora's box with the out of town comment. Here is clarification on why they are non-transferrable, per their email, no physical tickets:

What you and your guest need to bring to claim your prize at will call:· A government issued ID with your name and valid birth date – NO EXCEPTIONS!· Your +1 must also bring their valid government issued ID – NO EXCEPTIONS!· Print out this email and bring it with you (it speeds up the will call process)· Will call will open at 5pm the day of the event· Absolutely no one under the age of 21 will be admittedWhat you will receive at will call:· Two (2) tickets to the 312 Urban Block Party featuring St. Vincent, Kelly Hogan and Maps and Atlases· Two (2) VIP wristbands / passes which will provide you with exclusive benefits at the party

 

ISO: blue wristband

 

ISO fake id maker (and a copy of that email)

 

Mrs. Maction and I will be there. I think I won the same package as MarkFy:

​

What you will receive at will call:· ​

Two (2) tickets to the 312 Urban Block Party featuring St. Vincent, Kelly Hogan and Maps and Atlases· ​

Two (2) VIP wristbands / passes which will provide you with exclusive benefits at the party​

Should I plan on spending a bunch of cash, or willl I get one of the fabled blue wristbands?

 

I got the free tickets, hope that some of the good stuff is available to us commoners!

 

I would bring some cash just encase but sounds like you will get a blue wristband

 

Bring cash anyway to tip.
