I have no idea how I am getting there yet, but I will be there!
I think i'll be there, coming from Italy to Stockholm Skavsta airport and then with a car for rent, i need to know how works the buying of the ticket via the official site, they send it to home or i must to go to some shop to retire that ?
Another thing, i search a cheap B&B around the place of the concert (or in the area of 30 km), for the day of 12th June, someone can help me ? Thanks.
Anyway great bill...i miss only Overdrive (Swe).

If you preorder the ticket from
www.ticknet.se you CAN NOT pick it up at the festival as I understand it, but basically everywhere else (tobacco stores, betting stores etc that has the ATG system)
More info on how ticnet works here:

You can also buy tickets at the festival, but it will be about €15 extra (about €70 in total).

I'm sure there's places to stay in Alvesta, but they might be full this weekend. Seems most people are camping. I'll ask around..

For me it's better to buy directly at the festival but i don't want to have problem of soldout ! There is that risk ?

I doubt it, but I don't know how many tickets are available. If only 500 - possibly, if 2000 - definitely not.
Here's a B&B not too far away from the festival:
http://www.kronobergshed.com
Page is in Swedish, but you can try emailing them w/ your questions.
Edit:
I just read that tickets are ltd to 2000, so I can't belive for a second that it will be sold out.

Time for a little roll-call perhaps?

Oh, and the JONAH QUIZZ cd will have its world-premiere at the festival and be for sale from that short, drunk, bearded guy in the red leather jacket!

@DaN: Thanks for information, I really didn´t know this and thought I would get my ticket at the festival itself. I must admit I´m not so happy with this solution. As I don´t have a car and I´m coming by plane and train, I wanted to get a train from Gothenburg directly to Alvesta, and now I have to get out with all my luggage in Växjö and look for a ticket shop there.
Not to forget, I heard the weather is cold and rainy at the moment... even more than here, and it won´t be fun to sleep in a tent if we have only 3° in the nights.
