Well I'm starting this thread for posting of information about the free appearance of Sonic Youth with Talk Normal and Grass Window.
Doors open at 6:00, Showtime 7:00 to 10:00. Below is a link about the show
thanks to Georgekrz.

What I'd like to know is, is there ample parking or should I look to park elsewhere and hop a bus or use the subway to get there.

How big of an area is it?

Is 10:00 an absolute must on stop time?

Any seating in the area or is it all field?

normally they have seats in front and standing in the back. security is pretty strict about getting people to sit down and clear the aisles. Normal median age for a show there is prob. around 70 (slightly exaggerating...). folks just show up cause it's a free show. Seen many shows there and only one I didnt get in was for David Byrne, had to stand outside the fence which still wasn't that bad. But I saw Deerhoof and Blonde Redhead there and had no problem getting in or getting a good spot.

i wish celebrate brooklyn would issue tickets for this one like river to river did with the july 4th show. shit was insane enough when david byrne played there last summer. i can't imagine what SY is going to be like.

i'm going to be there right when the park opens.

I plan to listen from outside the prison walls. Listened to Yo La Tengo from there and it sounded good. To answer the first poster's question, parking is a nightmare in park slope.

Since parking is a nightmare how about suggestions on easy access parking and subway or bus transportation the rest of the way to the show. So if the gates open at 6:00 would getting there at say 3:00 be to late to get in line to get in? Given that their stage show isn't the show, the music is the show I don't have a problem sitting on the outside as long as I can hear.

What's the deal on ATP at Monticello Country Club is that worth the $120.00 for the day that they're charging? Might be an alternative.

getting there at 3:00 should surely get you in.

Went to see the Roots there yesterday and it was insanely crowded. Also from what I could tell they had standing room only set up (no chairs), which I hope they do for SY as well. You can definitely get a good spot if you want to sit outside the fence or get there late, there's a road that runs behind the fence, also a little hill.

pictures from the Roots: http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archive...ly_c.html#more

actually I can't tell if there were chairs or not, too many people! haha. I don't think it will get that crowded for SY, but who knows...

I was wondering if anyone knew for certain if you are allowed to bring a lawn chair inside. I may be having spine surgery before this show. If i can tuck my dumb ass on a lawn chair and keep out of everyones way it should work. If not I might just stay outside. From all i've heard that might work best. Any imput would be appreciated. Damn getting old sucks

Well my kids are going away to the beach with their Mom that day so I'm flying solo. I wish the trains or buses ran hourly out of Worcester so I would have the option of leaving my wheels at home. How is security about bring a few brewskis to the park with you?

you'll be searched at the gates and there are lots of pigs floating around in uniform and in plainsclothes looking to make their arrest quotas by busting some easy going white kids with some beers. NYC has fucking narcs in unmarked cars riding around looking at what people are smoking. I don't recommend it. remember, its a police state, they're just too ashamed to tell us.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't drink very often anyways so I guess I'll just refrain if I go. I'm in trouble smoking as I smoke camel non-filter.

it wouldn't be any fun if there wasn't a challenge - just be careful!

Bloomberg actually wants to make it illegal for you to smoke your Camels in the parks. The guy is a fucking tyrant. some poor child might get a whiff of tobacco. Never mind Bloomie's private jet probably equals all the smokers smoke. How did we get a Bermudan (Bermudian?) as a mayor - yes Virginia new yorkers were that dumb.

the weather is supposed to be perfect Sat, not hot, not humid, about 80.
