1) how quickly do you need to purchase camping passes and where do you do it? it sounds like there is ample room near with multiple campsites near the venue but I wasn't sure if it still sells out or what the deal with it in general is so any tips/suggestions are welcomed. Camping seems like the best route as I didn't notice any hotels in walking distance to the venue and don't mind camping. Any reviews on which campsite is best?
2) do people rent camping gear? or just buy it and toss out if they are flying? I've camped at Gorge so I understand everything that needs to go into it but since i'll most likely be flying, wasn't sure if anyone knew places to rent.
Any more info about the venue or camping is more than welcomed.

Depends on what "best" means to you.
Proximity is probably Sleepy Bear, Dead Creek or General Camping through the venue(camping in a grass parking lot, very limited trees for shade). Backstage Campground is where I normally stay. Green Acres & Close-by Campground are a couple of others.
Sleepy Bear sells out. Maybe Dead Creek. The others should be available the day of.
I would just bring the gear if you have it. Fly Southwest check 2 bags. Otherwise I'm sure you could rent it.
