Have y'all considered that this fest may not happen this year?

The venue hasn't flooded (yet). If it doesn't happen I'd say it'll probably be the city that calls it, but by December I think everything is going to be fine. The post office is on the far left in this picture.

not to be a twat, given the state of things, but how does that qualify as not flooded? looks like the water is all the way up the stairs and ramps and inside the office, which is pretty much level.

IDK, that courtyard still seems to be pretty much above ground.
I probably just shouldn't comment on this.

Sorry to be a downer, but I do not think that everything is going to be fine by December. It is going to take a long time for the city to recover.

Maybe they can scramble and move it to Dallas or Austin for a year?

Are there other post offices outside the city of Houston?

From their fb:
No better time to remind Houston that We gon' be alright. As we put the finishing touches on our 2017 lineup, we make sure to keep our neighbors and their struggle in our minds. We are currently working on integrating a few fundraising efforts into our 2017 program and plan announcements sooner than later. Our 2017 event is scheduled for December 15-17th and we are excited to bring Houston the beautiful event it deserves after enduring so much. #HoustonStrong

Yeah some people did some datamining and found out this round of blind presales was supposed to start on the 5th, and I'm assuming the lineup was going to come out this week. Obviously they had some bigger issues to attend to last week though. I'm expecting a lineup on Tuesday.

Oh wow, the new presale is $165. So glad I jumped in at $100.
They're calling Friday a "Summit" and if you want to go to that too it's $275.
VIP is $670.

man that $100 presale ticket was a steal. I'm hoping the price means that they have a huge line-up in store.
