    When do these go on sale?! I need to get a flight, but might miss out on initiation tickets, which would make the flight pointless.

    Knowing my luck, I would get my flight and not get a ticket.

    At this point I can only assume there's something going on with the webstore security to make sure only RS are able to make it.

    While there hasn't been any hard numbers for RS members this year announced, I don't think there are significantly more than last year (no source, just based on the paperwork at the Bruery for pickups). I don't remember either session filling out particularly quickly, but the later session did fill up first.

    True... but hoaders and preservation... so, maybe 3 times as many people?

    I haven't seen anything stating PS could buy tickets, and given how the Bruery has backtracked on how many RS exclusives the PS would actually have access to, I'd be surprised if they opened this up to them.

    Even with they significantly increased the number of RS/HS members, all they'd need to do would be add a third session. The Phoenix club can accommodate a ridiculous number of people.

    Oh, another question... do I need a ticket for a wife that won't drink?

    Answered my own question, read through last year's posts... sounds like there was a rip off DD ticket. Not sure of the price though, but people were mad at the price.

    Last year you needed to present photo ID to get your RS ticket/wristband, and your guest needed to present photo ID to receive their wristband. So the guest ticket was technically transferable, yours however was not.

    IIRC correctly, the DD ticket was 25/35 bucks. Don't quote me on that, I can double check the email when I get home to confirm. But yeah, it was grossly overpriced.

    Not to be dick, but I don't think Preservation Society should get allowed to go since it is a quarterly based membership. If i recall correctly, I don't remember reading that there is a cap on the amount of Preservation memberships available...this would cause an issue with the numbers of people at the event. I feel that the biggest perks should go to the people who have decided to invest in a year for the company...not just feel it out. Again don't mean to causing "class discrimination" but they have the 3 tier system in place for a reason.

    Cant find the breakdown for ticket prices in my email, so my numbers may(probably) be off.

    Hey all,

    True, the new website has caused some delays but we're working on getting all the details ironed out as quickly as possible. Keep your eyes peeled for an email by the end of the week for sure (hopefully as soon as tomorrow).

    To answer a few questions quickly here:
    These tickets will be for RS & HS members to purchase... not PS.
    Designated Driver tickets will be available as well.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    Matt, do you now if additional tasters will be available for purchase this time around?

    jtmartino - sorry... no additional tasters.

    FYI... Planning on putting tickets up for sale in the next hour.

    It is on the store... why is there tax on entry to a private party? That seems stupid. Dumb California laws.

    Yeah I see it now. Wasn't when I looked 5 minutes ago =(

    Since there is only 1 session, is there a cap to the number of tickets being sold at all?
