So there you have it: a timetable staggered to keep you hopping around just long enough to empty those brown bags between venues, with little risk of missing much of the fun.

The easiest way to secure a wristband is through our online shopping cart. Forty bucks, no service charge, no muss, no fuss. Your name will be added to our will call list and you can grab your wristband the week of the event. Paypal balance, e-check and credit cards accepted.

For those of you who’d rather stick to cash, we will have tickets on sale tomorrow at Antisocial, Neptoon, Red Cat, and Zulu. These numbered tickets can then be exchanged for wristbands the week of the event. Basic.

For those of you who have already grabbed yours, we thank you. Pretty damn great to see such a large out of town contingent coming for this. Between the wtf-edness of bringing in Death for the Friday night and the poignancy of this being the Pointed Sticks last show on the Saturday, we are heading for a sellout.

So without getting all Willy Wonka about it, don’t sleep on this. Get a wristband this week. Remember that all wristbands come with a limited edition Pointed Sticks Christmas single: our way of saying thanks.

We’d like to once again thank our sponsors: The Georgia Straight, Steam Whistle Brewery, Beat Route Magazine, Color magazine, CiTR, Budgie’s Burritos and Howard Johnson Kingsway.

Howard Johnson are offering a discount off their already ridiculously low room rates. Use the promo code “latida” for 10% off!

Speaking of 10% off, that’s what your wristband will get you at Neptoon Records all weekend long.

Don’t say we don’t take care of ya.
