I just got an email saying the rebate will be sent as a pre-paid Visa card in the amount of $10 some time within the next 5-7 weeks. Yeah, that's about what I expected.

Not exactly new. Woodstock was an artistic triumph but a financial disaster (on ticket sales alone), recouped only through the rights sales to the albums and the movie.
just brew it! wrote:Well, there won't be any album or movie rights to this, as the entire thing got cancelled after many of the attendees were already on-site but before any of the performances took place...
