I'm on site and it's looking great. Signage is awesome this year. They have balloons high in the air for coordinating certain areas. Sound check at woods stage sounds fantastic. Get ready for a fantastic festival this year. Great vibes happening!

thanks for the update, as if we weren't all excited enough. balloons are a good idea. seen them at other fests in the camping areas. good way to find your way back to your tent

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

I mean surely they aren't going to empty out coolers to count cans...right?
Post by chinatownshuffle on Aug 24, 2016 21:49:24 GMT -5
Maybe one tough guy security guard was in a bad mood and decided to be strict because there's less of a crowd? If they are counting beers for say 22k+ tomorrow people wouldn't get in until Saturday night, don't see that happening

Yesterday at 5 they just glanced in my car and trailer. Nice folks. To say it was a search would be hyperbole.
Met fishinghatteras while in line. Fellow Airstreamer. Thumbs up.

A group text message went out at about 4pm on Wed indicating that the searches consisted of Cops and K9 "Lots of Cops in someones truck" and "K9 at entry" they have to make a few close searches so they can show ABC that they did
We didn't see a thing, we actually gave beers to the folks working the "search area". They looked in the cab of my truck and said have a fantastic festival.

This was true. I met the camper's, who had their camper tossed on entry with dogs, took some smokeables from then and let them in the show. Seemed like talking to them, that this was a random search.

I sent that text message as a head's up to you fellow Wed. entry folks. Exactly what I texted was happening. They ran the dogs around my vehicle at least 6 or 7 times. The LEOs also thoroughly searched the truck next to me for at least twenty minutes. They had the guy and girl separated and questioning each one individually.

The girl that searched my vehicles looked in both coolers and went in to the RV and opened every cabinet she could find but did not move anything. Nice girl and I had no problems with this. Granted we sat in line for about an hour waiting for the gates to open so they had more time to search.
Did I mention I'm Greek?
