so Pot is not recommended?

I'm gonna bring bottles of water from Duane Reade. So illicit. Breakin' the law
breakin' the law.

I hear you tesla69!
It will be perfect day.
I will have my 1-hitter smoke box as usual for all my SY shows.
Bloomy won't ruin my good time.

Just smoke pot in the thick of the crowd and be smart.

this is what I plan(ed) but telsa made it sound impossinble.

it really isn't. there was plenty of pot-smoking at the national show last night (wtf, i know), but no one really seemed to care.

i guess it must have been easier to crack down on it last year when the venue was all seated and you could actually have a good view of what people were doing. now that they took the seats out (well, except for the very very back), it's much easier for that to go unnoticed in a crowd.

if you keep it low you'll probably be ok especially if you're in the thick of things but be careful. Have they banned cigarettes yet in the concert area? My experience in Central Park was a very thorough and invasive search so hide yr shit well...maybe they're more relaxed in Brooklyn?

Sonic will be a 4 piece for this gig. Expect some Retro SY.

fuck yes! 4 piece!

YES, Classic 4 pc SY!!
Can not wait!!

is there an 'official' boardie afterparty?

Youtell me. I just got here from Chicago with two friends. We kind of want to go for drinks afer dinner. Any suggestions? (somewhat cheap would be nice)

I'm broke as the proverbial dog dick, otherwise I'd be hanging out after.
Pretty much the SY show is going to make me forget momentarily that I
need to meet up with a job pretty soon or be homeless.

there are two gates into the venue

water bottles are allowed-plastic or metal NO GLASS

there's two gates, but the line will probably be at the 9th st. entrance. i think they only use the other entrance for unloading crap now.

they had seats set up yesterday for Swell Season, so, I think it might be the same set up today. We shall see. FYI there's a 10 foot high chain link fence running all the way around the grounds... Lot of people hopped that little waist high fence when the Roots played so maybe that's why they put that up now. And the F train is running on the C line in Brooklyn today so take the G, you can transfer on Hoyt-Schermehorn (if you're taking the subway).

See you in the pit! Should be a great show, shows there always sound great.

Enjoy the show one and all. Unfortunately I'm stuck being a Dad today which means I'm responsible for bailing my son's car out of the mechanic's shop when he finishes it. Should be a great show as they're probably getting tired of playing Eternal every night and will dip into the past.
