QuoteGot it from a guy down there who was walking around and talking to some guys who worked at the venue...

The art is going to be part of a pretty elaborate secruity set up to prevent gate crashing..

Basically there is going to be a facade as seen in the pictures followed by a holding area

From what I was told

They will pat down say 100 people at a time...Have them enter a holding area after physically showing someone their ticket, once there you will give your ticket, get it scanned and enter the venue.

Once the "holding area" is cleared they will allow another group of people through to the holding area and repeat process.

This will allow a buffer I guess and avoid bum rushing and catapaults over the ticket...

The dude my buddy spoke with said that "a few hundred" private secruity people will be there are well...Probably the same company the band used at Festies...

Take it for what its worth...Instead of just having "pens" the band probably thought why not at least make the front entrance into a bit of a piece of art...

^ that is incredibly smart and cool.

I can't even imagine how many ticketless people are going to be in the lot trying anyway possible to get in. There are a lot of people with only one or two nights that will be there for the whole weekend vying for an extra along with all the people who have no tickets trying to get in. It will be nutty.

yeah, seems like a good idea to me, i'm expecting a nuthouse this weekend

Gumbo72203 · March 03, 2009, 08:55:12 PM

you guys really think it will be that bad, in terms of ticketless hordes showing up? I mean... obviously I have no experience, and then especially since the venue only holds like 10 grand, but like... I donno.

For some reason I guess I just keep thinking/expecting that it will be a calm, event-less weekend, in terms of shit fucking up like gatecrashing, etc.
