    Inside the actual venue is horrible, no matter which provider you have. 38k+ people in the middle of nowhere, in a valley.


    It's better then it used to be. Nice board name btw. :)

    Good to hear that!

    Last year at DMB, I was in the pit both days, from 5pm on... my messages went thru here and there, but definitely still sucked :(

    Thanks! :)

    At least some went through. The way some people were posting here two months ago made it sound like we would have better coverage at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

    Just something wrong with that description but I just can't put my finger on it. :lol:

    Did you really buy the product??

    :lol: yeah...I can see some guy with the thing and somebody walks up behind him, and it will make them wonder.... :?

    yeah, I bought them...I'll see how they work...I live in earthquake country, I'm sure they will come in handy more than once.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Leave some feedback once you get them. Sounds like an interesting product that might have some great benefit. :thumbup:

    After seeing the map, and all the options that concertgoers have which is spread out all over the Alpine Valley area, I think that this could still be a good idea.

    Great idea, but as a longtime AT&T customer, I know that my phone will be unusable in a crowd that size. May work for other carriers, though.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    I think twitter would be easiest...and I am awaiting for my hand rip cord cell phone charger for PJ20.


    :lol: I don't know how to use twitter. Guess I have a few months to figure it out.

    don't worry, there is an app for it. :lol:

    This has been a concern of mine but I was assuming things would be going on at the main stage and the side stages at the same time. I also assumed wrongly that the two side stages would be in different areas. I think they've set it up well and I'm less concerned about this now. The side stages could be kinda busy though and i bet they'll be a rush of people heading to them if Ed comes out for a few guest spots, I hope he does though!
