You have questions. We have answers. This forum topic will serve as our FFFAQ for FunFunFun Fest 2010.

DATES & TIMES:
FFF 2010 November 5, 6, 7: Most killer line up ever.
- Friday, November 5th: 5pm -10pm Kick off party with Weird Al and friends.
- Saturday, November 6th: 12pm-10pm.
- Sunday, November 7th: 12pm-10pm.

TICKETS:
Fun1 tickets and Fun2 tickets are SOLD OUT. We have plenty of other kick ass tickets available though in our store.

BASIC PRICING IS AS FOLLOWS:
- $75 Saturday / Sunday passes (same price as last year)
- $105 Full weekend passes (Friday-Sunday). This includes the newly added kickoff party on Friday evening.
- $35 Friday only (kickoff party with Weird Al Yankovic and friends)
- $25 Friday only for Fun1 (ticket lottery) purchasers.(kickoff party with Weird Al)
- $45 Saturday only
- $45 Sunday only
- $210 PIP Pass. For details on all the benefits click here.
- $PIP upgrades. You'll pay the difference between your ticket and the price of the PIP ticket.

We will also be offering upgrades to PIP for reg ticket holders, early bird ticket holders, and FUN ONE ticket holders. Please remember that PIP is very limited in quantity. Pay attention to the tickets link - it will get more and more detailed over time, loaded with options.

Single day passes for Saturday and Sunday, as well as limited Student Discounts, will go on sale on/around September 1st.

FUN ONE ticket holders: You will get a separate communication highlighting your options. We will continue to hook you up with options for ridin early with us. FUN ONE tickets were our biggest discount on 2 Day passes. We had not booked the 3rd day until after FUN ONE was complete. So FUN ONE customers will be offered further discounts on adding either PIP, Weird Al kick off, or both. That communication should come soon via email. Long live FUN ONE.

p.s. You're getting your kickoff + full weekend ticket for $85. The full price is now $105. That's quite a steal!

GOOD TO KNOW:

All tickets are will-call.
No tickets will be shipped out to you. This is to help make life easier for you.

What do I need to pick up my tickets?
The fastest way to pickup your tickets is to bring your ticket order receipt (the one with the barcode on it) and a photo ID matching the name on the order. You are required to pick up your own tickets. This way we get to say hi in person!

Is the festival at the same location as 2009?
Waterloo Park, oh yeah. And its going to be madness.

Are ins and outs allowed?
If you have a PIP, Kickoff + weekend or full weekend pass, yes. For single day passes, no ins and outs allowed.

What's the age limit?
Fun Fun Fun is an all ages show. You do have to be 21+ to drink or have one amazing fake ID (good enough to fool your own mother). Kids ages 7 and under will get in free. Their fake ID's would have to be pretty groundbreaking.

I want to upgrade to a Heineken PIP pass. How do I do it?
STARTING MONDAY Heineken PIP upgrades will be available on a very limited basis. Anyone is eligible for this upgrade. All you'll need to do is pay the difference between the ticket you purchased and the cost of the PIP ticket. In order to upgrade, you must call our office at 1-877-GND-CTRL (1-877-463-2875). Our hours are Monday - Friday 9:00am - 6:00pm pacific. Please request your upgrade in the sexiest voice possible.

Heineken PIP: Are those offerings fo'real?
Yes. This year you will pick up your goodies on site. Also, the beer is all you can drink. We reserve the right to cut you off though if you act like a fool. We don't pity the fool.

How do I get my student discount?
Student Discounts are available online only. To get the discount, the student must show up to pick up tickets/wristbands with a valid student ID. If not, face embarrassment and denial and you'll have to pay the difference in exchange for the wristband(s).

Are you going to provide early bird will-call pick up this year:
Yes, absolutely. Stay tuned for more details.

Are you doing contests & giveaways this year?
As we do every year, we will support ticket giveaways and contests, including our legendary scavenger hunt leading up to the fest. We believe in providing as many ways as possible to get into see the show. Make sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter so you're in the know!

I live in 1985 and don't have internet access. Can I purchase tickets over the phone?
But of course! Please call us at 1-877-GND-CTRL (1-877-463-2875). Our hours are Monday - Friday 9:00am - 6:00pm pacific. Operators are standing by!

Freeloaders:
Jumping the fence will be much harder this year. Sorry bros. Respect the GWAR and fellow fans -- shell out a few coins like everyone else did.

Just saw that all of the early bird tickets sold out... argh! When are the regular PIP and tix going on sale? Can I get the prices of them since they are more (obviously) than the early bird ones were? I knew I should have bought mine yesterday but I am trying to get a carpool going for the 12 hour drive to Austin.... much harder than one may think.

Ignore the shipping option. You'll be headed over to will-call. More details on that location forthcoming.

any development for those of us who bought early birds about forgoing the will call option and getting our tickets pre-festival to avoid lines?

Is there any way to get actually get the tickets shipped to you instead of doing will call? I don't think my group is all going together so I'd rather be able to just give them the tix ahead of time instead of messing with wlll call. Thanks

Unfortunately no. We do it to make sure the ticket does not get lost or stolen by anyone, especially your jealous cat.. who is secretly dying to see Danzig.

who exactly does the student discount apply to?

I go to a community college in san antonio, so I just want to be sure that I'm still qualified for the discount before jumping the gun.

On the back of my Monolith schedule it says bring this map to austin and redeem special fff discounts---
if you don't want to tell me what these discounts are for that fine, but I if not what are they? And at least, are these ticket related discounts, should I buy my ticket now before student discount expires?

Hi m.Holz,

So the student discount is 67.50 + 5.60 for service plus 7 something for tax and processing, making the grand total 79.97 (as advertised), but then when I go to checkout it tacks on an additional 7 bucks for tax a SECOND time. Why are we taxed twice, especially since these tickets are on Will-Call?
Thanks.

Student discounts are only valid for the month of September so waiting much longer will result in losing that opportunity.

The Monolith deal will unravel soon. Imagine you just started pulling a thread on the FFF turtleneck.. keep pulling and soon all will be revealed (in a PG13 kinda way).

I bought an early bird ticket, then a couple weeks later I found out I'll be in Japan the weekend of the fest. Yay and damnit at the same time!

Anyway, I guess my ticket can only be picked up by me, and I won't be around. Is there any hope of reassigning my ticket to a friend, or am I just out of luck?

At will-call, will I have to have my ID to pick up my ticket or can someone else pick it up if they have the confirmation e-mail and all necessary information? I'll be out of town for an interview for the event and I need to resell my ticket. I really don't want to take a loss.
Thanks.
