Okay I heard that it sold out do they ever have other times they open up tickets before the festival. It's a little messed up hat residents don't get first dibs. Any advice on getting tickets would be appreciated,

Default from their website

2012 Early Bird Passes were first released last fall to our email subscribers and quickly sold-out. Then, in May, we went on-sale with our Regular 3-Day Passes and those sold out even quicker. The only tickets that remain are VIP Passes, Platinum Passes and Travel Packages. Not on the E-list? You should join to gain access to all future ACL pre-sales.
For the latest on-sale, you must have been on the E-list by Tuesday, May 8th to have had access to the May on-sale. Then, you must have first verified your email address by 11:59PM (CT) on May 13, 2012 via an email we sent specifically to our entire email list. On Monday, May 21, you should have received an email with instructions, your unique 2012 Pre-Sale password, and a Pre-Sale ticket purchase link. Then, on Tuesday, May 22, Pre-Sale tickets became available from 10 AM (CT) on May 22nd to 9:59 AM (CT) on May 23rd, or while supplies lasted (with a limit of four tickets per person). Only ACL E-List subscribers who successfully verified their email address before May 13th at 11:59PM CT had access to this E-List Pre-Sale.

We were on the email list and got tickets.

Yeah, I wasn't paying attention to my email because of finals, so I missed the whole presale thing. Now I'm just hoping to get one that's being scalped. Some of my favorites are going to be there.

If you're a College or High School student, they've given a final allocation of tickets to students in the past. You'll probably have to wait in line for 10 hours or so, but the link below gives information on what they did last year on September 2nd.

Oh yeah, that's right! I completely spaced that out! The Shins, the Black Keys, Weezer, and tons of others will be completely worth the wait.

Be careful with scalped tickets!! Make sure you go to the box office with the seller and verify that the tickets are in fact real. Too many fakes/invalid tickets out there
