    Funny to me after all the hand wringing and social media complaints about getting tix, it ends up all you have to do is waltz in and pick them up.

    FOMO 101. On the local boards people were asking ridiculous stuff for tickets and putting up ridiculous trades to get a ticket.

    I see Veil is releasing Crucial Taunt on Tuesday with no can limits. What are the odds of cans lasting until opening on Wednesday? I will be driving through and would love to bring some back to NoVA.

    You should be good I would think. When Crucial was last released 3 weeks ago they started with 180 cases at no limit and 27 carried over into Wednesday. That was also next to a brand new can (Toof Ache) as well.

    Posted this morning with information about remaining tix and when to expect more info about Saturday's Summer Fest. With no additional information on cans looks like just Crucial Taunt and Lil' Kitty Boy this week.

    So i know Veil releases cans to go on Tuesdays. I am going down to Richmond over Labor Day weekend. Like Friday - Sunday. Any chance some cans to go will linger and I can pick them up on Friday?

    There is a chance something is left, sure, but not likely.
    Its happened a few times, I've picked up some cans on a Friday before, however more often than not, they have sold out by then. For sure whatever is more popular by then will be gone.

    It feels like Master Shredder should be returning next week since it hasn't been canned since July. If that is the case, I can see it lasting until Friday or Saturday. Then again, with possible no limits and people traveling on Labor Day, many may stock up. Just keep an eye on Veil Facebook page to see what they release next week.

    Been seeing several posts over the past few days of people trying to see tix to get their $$ back. Almost seems like a lot of people purchased their two limit and they either cannot get Sat free or someone they had planned to come with is unable to make it.I think all the posts I have seen it has just been 1 ticket these people are looking to sell.

    Veil just posted info for today's release. Very quiet on the local group pages today so I'm guessing these will last a few days. Maybe until at least Thursday. Everyone must have spent their weekly stipend on Fest tix last week......

    EDIT (2:40pm): Someone just posted a picture of the line. Absolutely no one in line other than 2 empty chairs.

    I wish Richmond wasnt so far away. I did a evening trip after work one night and came back the same night and it was one of the worst things I've ever done.
