Just wondering, how many people usually show up to NEARfest?

The venue seats about 1000, so that plus some random other people. Tickets are a pain to get, since my account froze up while they were on sale (internet traffic jam) but fortunately I bought them off of some guy from progressiveears. Next year I'll probably order patron tickets with flossy (it's expensive, but saves the hassle of trying to buy a ticket when general ones go on sale, plus better seats). There's pics of us in the picture thread with Peter Hammill and Koenjihyakkei to make people jealous :P although I'll probably be more jealous of RIO fest attendees.

Only 1000 and it's seated? Hmm, I was expecting 10,000 people stood in a field and getting muddy.

Most prog fests seem to be indoors, and the crowd seemed very Grey Room esque (tame and old) but there were a few younger people, not very many.

Alex (MP07) - those are really good prices, you should think about picking one up. I think I'm going to order Are(A)zione now.

Oops! ()
I'm a bad man... Patrick, just don't tell the wife!

Hopefully by the time I'm married I'll have enough CDs so I don't have to order like crazy, but I kind of think that's impossible. :P
Does she usually get the mail? If so, you're doomed.

No, I usually get it, which is a win. Sometimes I open it in the car and bring it in later, passing it off as a CD i already have. Better start buying Mike - you might only have a few years left (if you're like me) - you never know.

You are a rare breed indeed! James and I are the old caretakers of this room, as it were.

Only one album and I haven't listened to yet (self-titled one). I need more.
