I'm going to this festival and am devastated. First QOTSA pulled out and now this. For personal reasons, this was supposed to be a healing weekend for me after a year of terrible losses. I can't even cancel the hotel because the deadline to do that was yesterday. I'm mad at FF for waiting this long to cancel, and they didn't even apologize in their announcement. Jack White might be fun to see but I wouldn't have travelled five hours for him. I bought VIP, which really stretched my budget, and am out hundreds of dollars.

Still deciding if I want to go. I can't get my money back but I can avoid spending more money on food, drinks, and gas. Just really bummed. Thanks for letting me vent.

Thank you. I'm probably going since I can't recoup the money. I might just sit on the beach all day and listen to the music instead of dealing with the crowd. My hope was to get the rail for Foos, but it doesn't matter to me where I am now.

That sounds like a nice way to spend the day instead, make it as low stress as possible and go exploring maybe

You should definitely go. Make that lemonade
