"Guests will be given free clear bags at the entrance"
Well...I guess if that had been stated sooner, no one would have bothered to get their own. Good news for those who couldn't find one, or couldn't find one in time.

Thanks for the info, Worf.

	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?

Looked like more than Phish only because of the smaller venue and there were more of us old fat people.

Please don't attribute it to Umphrey's. We have enough of them.

I think TTB is the draw. At least let's put that out there to get them on the farm more!

I also think having some mainstream artists with name recognition like Blues Traveler and Sheryl Crow on board, especially Sunday, helps sales because it brings in couples or other groups who musical tastes are mixed. Something for everyone.

You don't think DeadCO might be driving those numbers? Just a little bit?

Nope, obviously the big draw was Hammageddon.

I have heard unreliable numbers up to 38-40,000 and much lower from reliables early in the event. but consider last year's 17,000 on the same piece of land, visually, I say we have to be at least 150% of last year of (a) people standing in the venue and (b) camping. Let's hope for 30,000.
