    I call BS on the show ending at 1130 but I have to say, if I am spending all this money and time to see PJ and they only play for 2 hours each night, I am not going to be happy.. yes, this is a PJ fest but lets be honest, it isnt a "true" festival where the top bill only gets 1.5/2hrs...at least I hope not.. not too worried about it but would definitely be a let down..

    What's new is the lawn and seats opening at 3pm....this will probably change my arrival time...I thought that we'd be able to go sit on the lawn before this to hang out/relax :( :?

    no flags? With at least 32 countries being represented this weekend, that's SUCKS! I feel bad for Dimi...

    I agree...there is no way I'll get there before 3 p.m. just to stand on a huge cement slab and some dirt with limited bathroom/concession access for several hours. I wonder if the museum will be accessible before 3 p.m. Very strange that the nice, grassy lawn area will not be open for people to relax and chill.

    Screw 11:30, they played a slightly longer set at Lollapalooza and I have a feeling they'll break curfew here too.

    Are PJ gonna put this shows up on the site as audio soundboard? I hope so. Usually, PJ allows audience tapings, and I hope Alpine is informed of this, Hope PJ still does. Usually if I know there is gonna be a soundboard show, I just go for those if they are available.
