Question Re: The Threadhead Patry(sp?)....

[Mardigrasbaby35]

okay, so i keep hearing about it....but i've never been, from what i can tell it sounds like its not to be missed - can some kind soul please explain and/or give details re: the Threadhead Patry (sp?) for those of us who are "new"....

[Mardigrasbaby35]

:D oh, and kick ass - i just realized i've graduated to MEMBER!!!!!:D

[saturn]

Planning is ongoing -- and things are looking really great. In a couple more weeks, the definite info about performers, etc. will be posted and tickets will become available.

Keep an eye on threadheads.org, and here, for more info.

[grisgris]

The Patry will be May 1st this year and tickets will go on sale soon(don't know the exact date but stay tooned to this channel for an update) Yes this patry is not to be missed. Good Food, Good Beer, Good Music & Good Friends. Get your tickets as soon as they go on sale because it will probably be a sell out for the 3rd year in a row.

MGbaby, it will sell out within hours of being posted, so be vigilant on this board/threadheads.org.

The Patry rocks!! Here's a photo from the First Annual Patry:

That's Kermit doing a jello shot. He and his BBQ Swingers played and then Rebirth came on. I hear the Patry last year was even better (I wasn't able to be at that one however).

[ibjamn]

LOL!!! Great pic, ZKitty!

[Zydekitten]

LOL!!! Great pic, ZKitty!
I know! It's one of my favorites too ;)

[Mardigrasbaby35]

okay, y'all convinced me, i'll be there - i'm addicted to the board, so i'm guessing i'll catch the tickets...

[ohio]

Swami sez: early Feb. for tickets...pay attention, they will be gone almost immediately!

[sophisticated sissy]

ohio, is it "first come- first served", or is there a pre-sale for repeat revelers?

[saturn]

Posting these patry pics again for newcomers.

[VWGal]

Two good reasons to have a Blackberry! Patry ticket ordering and lineup announcement checking while in meetings...

[funkkjunkie]

No presale but a headsup email on sale time for the tickets. Newbies on this board will have the same chance as oldies.

[glinda]

Oh, man I'm nervous. Gonna be out of town at my internet-less Mom's Jan 27-Feb 1. Prolly only be able to check email every other day. PLEASE tell me tickets'll go on sale after 2/1. PLEASE!

[funkkjunkie]

Rest assured, glinda.

[glinda]

...exhales deeply

[ozzie]

I'm nervous too. I mean I only spend half of my day here... what if I miss it!

[NYMAMA]

Now I've got a bad case of fomthpt(fear of missing thresd head party tickets) I have never been to the party and am sooooooo looking forward to it. Now I have to check the boards every 2 hrs!!!!!!

But you're doing that already, aren't you?

[NYMAMA]

I've been found out. Don't tell my boss.

[nyc gal]

LAst year there was some discussion of moving it to a larger location to accomodate more ppl--any news on that one?

[ibjamn]

Same great location, but with the new configuration of the stage last year. we had plenty of room to add some more folks without being overcrowded.

[Mardigrasbaby35]

Generally, how much are the tickets, is their a limit to how many one person can buy, and how do you pay for them? (credit card on line?)

Yes, the site will use your cc via paypal for tix. The Patry web site will be published later today with the ticket price and line up! Tix won't go on sale until sometime in Feb.

[mightyradgumbo]

hey MGB, this patry is definitely not to be missed. I didn't attend the inaugural one but last year was hot-the clouds even shifted and the r%*n held off. Knowing how this krewe knows how to patry, I wouldn't be surprised to see this year top last year (no pressure or anything ;) )

[Mardigrasbaby35]

Thanks for the heads up mightyrad & ohio - i'll be on the lookout for the tix....

[glinda]

hint? clue? rough estimate????

[Mardigrasbaby35]

Last question - for purposes of planning, is their a per person limit for tickets - i.e. can one person only buy two tickets or four tickets or something along those lines.....any info would be greatly appreciated :o

ALSO, in order to use paypal do you have to set up a paypal account in advance?

[Amy Winette]

I saw on another thread there is going to be a two tix limit, and I can't recall what's required to get the paypal account up and running but there may be some delay so I'd go ahead and do that now :)
