    Default How long before I cut off the wristband?

    They might fade some but you can keep them on for years. Have fun.

    if you're careful, you can take it off in such a way that you can put it back on later. (this is an error, i think, in this year's wristband design). which will help with cleaning, etc.

    I cut the plastic part off with one of my jeweler's tools and now I have a full wristband with no rips or tears in it for my collection
    Coachella '10, '11, '12 (w2), '13 (w1), and hopefully every one after

    I freed myself from that shackle as soon as I was out of the gate Sunday night.
