Holy crap . Part of me is sorry for all of the issues, but a little part of me chuckled of the mention of someone stumbling out of the woods the next day. I figured it was someone from the JB tailgate.

Better dying through chemistry.

how sad....and now they are all on their way to Bristow (I'm guessing the Lube)....Yikes

[NYCPORT]

Natural selection at it's finest...

And I think this is the reason for why places are starting to crack down on tailgating.

There were also 21 people transported from Greatwoods to local hospitals for drug related emergencies.

NOTHING about that show sounds enjoyable. I feel bad for those who died, but they made the choices to do the drugs and drink the alcohol.

Someone got shot at the Jason Aldean show at Walnut Creek in Raleigh last night as everyone was leaving. According to this report from local TV station WRAL they haven't released any info about a motive or the shooter.

Whereas Buffett fans only choose to drink alcohol (and maybe smoke some weed), so that's OK?  

No, I think the difference is that for most of us Buffett fans, we've already been down that road before.  We've mellowed out, if you will, and know when to say 'when'. Not that this is entirely the case; but based on my one experience at Alpine Valley it does seem to be the rule rather than the exception.  In fact, I've seen one thread where a regular here (not gonna name names) felt that they had overstepped the bounds of control and decorum at a Buffett weekend; on their own, this person felt it necessary to post an apology to the rest of us here in this forum — and had enough class to do so.

The only apologies I foresee coming from the bunch at this techno/electronica concert at Great Woods will be to a judge in court.

Seems like a lot of the country shows have big issues, sounds like a lot of people with anger issues.

Jason Aldean?? It very well may have been a self inflicted gunshot. I hate fake musicians.

Didn't find that very funny. Somebody getting shot amuses you? What if it was your kid at that concert?

[tigzoe]

From what I partially heard, it was a rave party. Aren't those parties notorious for having drug induced issues?
