no way id let my buddy stay in a hotel..plus,its a festival.you camp there(nice campgrounds btw)..you can buy the vip tickets and get
huge army type barracks tents,with cots and pillows,electricity..and a.c. bathrooms..or super vip where you have a free open bar,catering for meals with the bands,stage seating and your own golfcart with chauffeur.,or rent their r.v.s ..there is a few differeng option,the only ones that will be left soon will be day passes and general camping,and im sure those will be available at the gate..all the other tickets are gonna sell out between now and julyish most likely..if you do want a room they have options of getting one here in my town,and giving you shuttle rides there(20mins away) or,you can stay at wintergreen ski resort for about 3k all weekend,includes tickets and a 4 room suite with everything essential..up to you!
