[gordong]

Hey all

Just read Jim King's twitter and he confirmed that tickets would be onsale this week, and that for a limited time only that, wait for this, they will be UNDER £100!!!

"The RN tix offer is a pre early bird special deal. Price will be under 100 quid. Its limited and a bloody bargain!!!" 12:25 AM Sep 25th via Twitter for BlackBerry®

He then posted

"mega offer coming next week. There will be payment plan deals as well. Try and get launch offer though. V cheap deal."

Will be getting mines the second they go onsale!

good deal, though not sure am going in 2011

[Poleski]

This makes me think it's going to a big act. Big enough they think they might be close to selling out.

[parkylad]

where will these tickets be available and does anyone know when they are going on sale?

[rexclark]

Sounds like a good deal! Will probably pick mines up with ther payment plan like last year.

[Disco_Fudge]

can you buy them on a payment plan for the same price as early bird?

I'm sceptical and pretty sure they will be at least £100 after delivery, fee's etc. Still a bargain anyway

[Poleski]

No doubt they'll be available from ticketmaster.

Ticketline are the only place you can get payment plan tickets for Rockness

Am assuming the tickets will be on sale either tomorrow or Friday, it was launched last year at the Scotcampus Freshers festival in Glasgow (which happens to be on again tomorrow/Friday)

Interesting to see what the ticket cost actually is and the payment plan amounts

They've just released this:

SAFENESS

ROCKNESS ORGANISERS PRAISE "AMAZING" FANS AS OFFICIALS REPORT ON

FESTIVAL CRIME AT AN ALL TIME LOW!

Delighted RockNess organisers have praised the crowd at this year's

festival following the official debrief meeting which has applauded

multiple big successes in crime prevention operating under the SafeNess

message resulting in crime levels being at an all time low.

Assessed by the Local Authority, Police and Emergency Services, the

summary highlights the three day festival's numerous positive

achievements generated by rigorous action taken by organisers to keep

antisocial behaviour away from rockness.

Over 30,000 music fans attended RockNess across the whole weekend and an

increase in Community Policing and the general security operation is

credited as making a real and positive effect on the festival ensuing in

a drop in crime across key areas. It has also been noted that levels of

tent theft at RockNess in comparison to other festivals is regarded to

be one of the lowest.

Other notable achievements include a reduction in medical incidents

across the site from the previous year as well as a fall in the number

of people taken to hospital.

Overall, police say RockNess 2010 saw one of the lowest levels of

reported crime with the good natured crowd enjoying a weekend of

festival fun and exceptional music from world class acts including The

Strokes, Leftfield, Blondie, Ian Brown, Doves, Plan B and Fatboy Slim in

a trouble free & friendly environment.

Speaking about the debrief findings, Festival Director Jim King said,

"Rockness is about great music and having fun. Ensuring that RockNess

remains as one of the UK's most enjoyable festivals to attend will

always be our focus and these results just go to show what an amazing

crowd we have. I'd like to thank our security team and Northern

Constabulary for the massive effort they make to ensure RockNess does

not go down the path of some other shows that suffer antisocial

behaviour."

Plans are already well under way to guarantee the fifth RockNess next

summer is extra special, including more active measures to reinforce the

SafeNess message, and organisers are advising festival goers to watch

the website for updates coming soon.

[Kowalski]

So, not many days left "this week"...

[Paul ™]

Nothing at freshers festival either

[blackg1000]

Not surprising since Rockness organisers' timekeeping for announcements is awful at best.

[rexclark]

You'd imagine they'd give people more than a couple of days notice before tickets went on sale. You'd imagine......

[theampersanddevil]

You'd hope rex. Especially off the back of Glasto ticket day as well. I am rooked.
