Get Outside Lands Festival Days updates on your phone during all 3 days of the Outside Lands festival!If you're going to Outside Lands anytime between August 22nd thru 24th, we can notify you of festival news on your phone via text messaging, making your festival experience even better!
Note: these mobile festival updates are different than the alerts you can get from the other non-"O.L. Festival Days Updates" categories on the CrowdFire Blog, and will not exceed more than 5 alerts per festival day.
Steps to get O.L Festival Days Updates text messages on your phone:
Part 1: Setting up a Windows Live ID
1) Click on the "Windows Live Alerts" button in the upper right-hand part of this page you're reading to start the sign-up process, which will launch a new window (as shown below) so you can refer to this page during the process.
2) Click on the sign-in button from the screen above, and you'll get this page to either sign-up for Windows Live Alerts, or sign-in if you have a Windows Live ID (which is either a Hotmail, MSN Messenger, or Passport account):
3) If you have one of the accounts mentioned above, go ahead and sign-in. This is also known as your "Windows Live ID." If you don't have one, click on the Windows Alerts sign-up button, and you'll be taken through a process where you can quickly sign-up. Note: You can even use your existing email account, even if it's not a Microsoft account.
IMPORTANT: After you complete the registration form, you will be sent a confirmation email where you will need to click on a link to complete the process of creating your Windows Live ID. Tip: if you don't see the confirmation email in your inbox, check your SPAM, JUNK, or BULK folder.
After clicking on the link, you have now completed Part 1 where you have set up a Windows Live ID, and you can close that window. Part 2 is where you create an MSN Mobile account:
