Just an update! Me and my "stupid friends" are having a blast. We are about 15 of us hanging trading stories of where we are from, and just welcomed a group right from the airport from Milan..
We moved again and will be directly across the street from where the big Alligator sign is for the Sawgrass Mills Mall is. It is under a big lot billboard.
By Gate 5 of the Parking lot and easy to find right by the front of the venue... Come join...
It is beautiful out..
You should post a pic of you crazy fuckers all in line already...
Of all the places to camp out overnight and line up all day for GA, this definitely is a cozy spot. Kudos to those with the passion & desire to line up for this long so they can get as close as possible. While it's not for me, there's no reason to criticize their choices. Enjoy the sun!
To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

Dont see the point in wasting an entirely perfect day waiting in a line. Go to the preparty,get a bite to eat,mingle with the countless fans that will be about. Seems like waiting for rail cheapens the overall experience a bit. Thats just my two cents. If killing a day means that you can drink some of Ed's backwash wine,knock yourself out.

A. I don't drink, so nobody's backwash appeals to me including Ed's
B. I am now going to watch a Pearl Jam show where a look to my left and right and experience it with people where I have met every single one of them, and I know where they have traveled from, their names and shared a common experience with them.
C. As for food.. I had my brother bring 4 large pizzas last night for everyone... We had a bud bring chick filet this morning and the mall is across the street....
D. In no way has it cheapened my experience but only will enrich it as I slept well in my tent and am refreshed and in the shade and trading stories with new friends that is my pre-party.

Pretty damn cool if you ask me.....If you are gonna do something, do it right!!
These folks are doing it right!!!!

so Steve...do you feel like you need a structured system, or maybe a set of written down rules to keep you organized or is it just mad chaos there?
We had to be moved a couple times by security, but we kept the line in order and everyone remained organized and friendly. There has been no need for a list or sharpie on hands. We have used the honor system and so far things have gone smoothly.
We went from 3 of us in the afternoon to about a dozen in the evening to a couple dozen at sunrise to about 50 now at 10:00am.
