Ladyjean - my camera was a cheap little disposable and it was daylight. I could have returned it to the car which was parked about a mile away but the thought of returning to the end of the line was too much. I never did figure out why no blankets were allowed but maybe it was so the promoters could squeeze more people into the space if there was standing room only.

Can you imagine a 10 hour concert in 95 degree weather standing on your feet with no water? I think the only place to sit was the beer garden.

I'll tell you one thing - when we demanded our money back, they gave it to us in a hurry. If more people did this, this kind of exploitation would end. Unfortunately too many people rationalize these kind of rules without realizing its only the tip of the iceberg.
