Considering he is headlining the festival i would guess that he would be the final performance on Sunday night, but this doesn't seem to be the most orthodox festival so that may not apply.

 

I'm curious about the Bjork VR stuff, but i have never tried VR and heard that if you get motion sick it lingers with you 8-10 hours where you feel terrible. I wouldn't try it unless i had the opportunity to do so after Aphex Twin.

Last year they released the schedule in November, so expect a similar date this year

I VIPd all over myself. Theres buses and uber - bus stops are right outside the venue and uber is relatively cheap, uberX specifically.

hey big spender

i imagine uber will be running surge for the majority of the festival but am fine w/bus+hoofing it

Yes, though surely there is a more aloof, snarky, and asperger-y way to go about this.

Houston's bus and light rail system is pretty decent - the venue is the old post office building downtown not too far from where I work (about a 20 minute walk), so depending on where you are staying hotel-wise, you should be able to get around pretty easily. Downtown Houston on the weekends is pretty dead, so you could walk depending on the weather during that time.

Uber would probably be the next logical option, and if someone is going to be here for all three days, I would even suggest looking into a car rental - some are 30USD per day or less, and offer you more freedom to get around the area, especially if you want to go hit up the restaurants, which we are kinda known for.

I should make a list of 'places to go and see' in Houston, eh?

I'd be willing to stay on "someones" couch for the duration. 

I'll be there. Got GA tickets. Beyond stoked. Have not looked forward to a show with anticipation like this since I can't remember. Lineup is fucking nuts, but I was sold at Aphex Twin.

yes you should. we're there fri-mon. doubt we'll pony up $200 for the fri nite party

re: the venue:

i don't really get it. like, for moogfest they took over the entireity of downtown asheville, which is admittedly much much much smaller than houston. but they took over every venue the city had to offer their lineup (something like 4-6 venues?). there were many shows where if you didn't lineup hours beforehand you weren't going to get in because the venue was too tiny (machinedrum, flylo, etc). is this entire festival taking place at one location with one stage? 

fuckit. nevermind i bothered to look it up on the site:

"The historic Barbara Jordan Post Office at 401 Franklin Street, designed by the same architects as the Houston Astrodome, will be the setting for this year’s hyper-sensorial festival.

still that seems like a lot of artists for only 3 stages and two days. and i wonder if you'll need to lineup hours in advance to get into the headliner shows like you would have at moogfest

if some1 donated me a ticket I could probably convince one of my friends to get a ticket and drive down there (im in Kansas), and I have a friend who lives outside Houston. every1 pitch in 25$ and i'll have my ticket in NO TIME .

anyone know any get rich quick schemes besides handjob serviceman?

but seriously, will this sell out?

donating blood plasma and sperm

You could also try wanking for gay men on chaturbate

jesus i tried to edit the formatting of that post like 4 times and it looked worse every time and then i just got locked out but whatever

I mean, the first floor venue of the post office holds a lot of people, and it looks like they setup an outside stage which will likely also hold a lot of people .Not the same as small venues around town.

Be careful walking around downtown, especially at night, it has a lot of homeless shelters and the jail is there, so there can be unsavory characters about. I would use Uber to get around, or public transit. Some cab drivers aren't the best.

omg omg omg omg

It's quite amusing watching the North American contingent of watmm go into meltdown
