    Damn! Guess I'll have to leave my AK47 and dynamite at home that day and bring a tent and some coolers instead :D

    *edit*
    how hot does it get there? Lolla hot? Gorge '06 hot? Flames of Hades hot?

    It can be hot but it also can be very cold (ice bowl)

    But late aug I would say hot. Bring ice.

    Very easy, just watch out for the under cover cops that walk the parking lot. If you do it out in the open you could get caught. Out of sight out of mind. :)

    Speaking of cops, how bad are they in and outside of the venue? I'll be going with someone who's 20 and would hate to have our experienced ruined by some narc. In Ohio you can't tailgate anywhere except for an OSU game.

    You can tailgate at Alpine, I've only been there twice, PJ '00 and '03, but never had a problem with security/cops. Just don't be stupid about it and you'll be fine.

    The cops have gotten worse through the years there, but if you don't act like an animal, you'll be ok.

    I got one pair of seats and bought 2 others off of ebay. I might put extras up for sale here once I decide which ones to keep. I got AA, QQ and TT.

    If I were you I would just check everyday for tickets, maybe some Pavillion seats will pop up. Especially check once the show approaches...I don't think you have to worry about the Lawn selling out anytime soon.
