what's this about the Desert Trip release...
ON SALE SATURDAY 9/17
"Residents Sale at 8:00a PDT · Public Sale at 1:00p PDT"
Residents of where? California?
"If you weren't lucky enough to secure tickets to Desert Trip, the rock festival featuring The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, et al., Coachella Valley residents will get a chance to roll those tumblin’ dice again.
Goldenvoice producers have announced Coachella Valley residents from Palm Springs to Mecca will be able to buy three-day passes in all price ranges in person and online on Saturday, Sept. 17."
[www.desertsun.com]
what I don't understand about all this is that there are "passes", "tickets" and "wristbands." What are each of these for and is it necessary to have all three to get into the shows?

If you buy a 3-day pass, they will send you a 3-day pass wristband. Without a valid and activated (online) wristband you will not be permitted into the one mile perimeter around the venue. There is a one mile police-check perimeter according to what DT sent out with the wristbands. There are no paper or e-tickets. They also sold a limited number of 1-day passes. Those have a 1-day wristband.

Yeah, I saw that, but looking back through the thread, it seems the LuckyDips were only available on rollingstones.com, so it seems the $75 only applies to the ASX site. I thought I had seen something about $38, but can't find it now.

I only got one email today from AXS saying presale is Wednesday.
As for purchasing on Stones app vs AXS.com, I think both methods will be available. They were both available for Vegas Oct 19. I had one device on AXS.com and another on the app. I had better success with AXS.com, but other people had good success with the app. I just hope AXS doesn't freeze up on me again like last time when I got "thank you for your purchase" but it froze and the charge didn't go through and I lost great seats. Heavy volume seems to be a problem for their website.

Wristband ... must be on your right wrist.

Why the right wrist?
What if a person is an amputee or has birth defect? ... no arms or no right arm ?

Was offered $750 tix in section 8 but declined. Tried 4 or 5 more times but there are no more available in the top price range at the moment. Best available is section 208 for $321.

don't they wait until the general on-sale to offer the lucky dips?
