    Sprunkn7 - did you see this posted somewhere?

    This will be my 4rth Global, there is no alcohol except VIP 1 I'm telling you true....bring in nips...2 years ago my mom came with us and we used her as a mule. She had about 20 nips hidden on her person lol.....she was good with it as long as we bought her a Dewars one :-)

    Seriously I bring in nips every year.
    How is security is I pretty easy to get the nips in? No pat down right?

    Security is pretty lax really. Leaving I have seen empty wine bottles and fifths of liquor on the lawn. That pisses me off. Bring your shit in but be decent and put garbage where it belongs.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Didnt see this on MSNBC's TV schedule. Is this really being aired live?

    yes. I saw an ad for it today saying coverage starts at 3. is pj really headling this? someone posted earlier that they will come on around 8:20 after beyonce. is this correct?

    I can't imagine every guest is speaking individually. You'd have to abandon the music entirely to fit that in. I bet they'll come out in groups like 4 people talking about one issue, another 3 talking about something else. I also wouldn't be surprised if the broadcast ended at 10 but Pearl Jam was allowed to play until 11. It's a Saturday night and this is a special event that's happening once a year not just another summer concert. Allowing for an 11pm curfew wouldn't be that crazy. I'm just speculating though. Whatever we get we get, but them playing for over an hour would be really nice!

    The Park has a very strict curfew for 10 pm for the festival and a 11pm curfew in general.

    Last year Jay-Z played 14 songs, when Neil Young headlined, he played 9 songs.

    If anyone is thinking your getting a 2hr pj set, you might as well sell your ticket now cause it's not happening. We'll be lucky with a 90 minute set
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

    Neil has some pretty long songs. Fuckin Up lasted a while :-) I'm sure that wasn't on MSNBC.

    I do remember out of all the Globals Neil def played the longest closer. He damn near played 2 hours...Maybe after that year they HAD to end at 10...Union...park peeps whateven may have complained about going over time.

    Was at GCF 2012. Neil was amazing but played less than 1h15m. You can see the whole set on YouTube even, it's a 1h11m video. I'll take whatever and be happy it's free, in central park, and the only opportunity for me to see the boys this year.

    Thanks, glad it is not just me.
  • What is everyone hoping they will play?
    Here is my wishlist (pun completely intended)
    Present tense
    pendulum
    unthought known
    crown of thorns
    I am mine
    amongst the waves
    In my tree
