I just don't get the camera deal. Tallahassee this year cameras were fine but at Atlanta they were a no no. Can someone spread sum light?

Wow the no camera thing was a late addition to LiveNation's site as I was just on a couple of days ago and it said nothing about cameras. :(

ok I am sure this has been addressed several times on this thread.

But how the heck do you get to the BN tailgate? yes I saw the arieal pictures (im impressed with the attention to detail) but isn't parking included with the cost of our tickets?

and since it is... don't we just follow the line to where they want us to park?

and if thats what we have to do... what time is everyone planning on getting there to get to that spot?

10ish?

Just wanted to know... I was in a vegas cloud for 3 months. Now I am just trying to catch up with you tampa folks. The offical number for our tailgate is at 10. With 10 more people filtering in and out. I am looking forward to meeting everyone!

Thanks for helping me out! if yall just want to tell me what page to look at with the details instead of reexplaining... I totally understand. Just having trouble finding it and 50 pages is a little daunting!

ok, if you look at this image:

I-4 is at the top (north). You'll exit I-4 onto 301/Ft King Hwy and head south for 2 seconds (as soon as you exit I-4, be ready to enter the parking lot), you'll see winghouse on your left just before the parking lot entrance on your right.

As you enter the parking lot (entrance is in the lower right of the photo), hang a quick right and head towards the trees in the upper right of the photo. Look for the big tiki bar, we'll be setup there with the generators, small beach, tiki heads, etc. I believe it's titled LOT A based on Marnin Garita Guy's recon mission during the show tonight.

We plan to arrive between 1030 and 1130am, depending on how far behind we are on packing. I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone!!

Guess I could always hope for a miracle of Bama put the Tigers away in 3 quarters and not having to worry bout the 4th. ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll have a small TV in the parking lot if you want to watch the game there.
And the power for the TV is covered!

If you end up finding a fishmonger, we're going to be doing a food boil, and should be able to reuse the pot afterwards if you end up wanting to add oysters, shrimp, etc.

Here's a search I did on yellowpages in Tampa. I'm from Orlando, so no idea which of these are good or close, but maybe someone else can chime in.

Last year, you could pretty much park where you wanted to. Free reign in the lot, and look for your own space. At least in mid-afternoon, by evening they might have directed you to fill in spaces.

I remember last year that vehicles were lined up on the side of the road outside the entrance waiting for the gates to open. But I really don't care where I park because my cooler has wheels and I will find y'all.

Looking forward to meeting you all on saturday.

We have international 'will call' tickets. Can I assume that the email confirmation will be enough to get us into the parking lot?

Leaving Orlando tomorrow early for our stay at the beach - cannot wait. The weather has not been good in Orlando over the last couple of weeks, lots of rain. More than we have had in England all summer............

Bon voyage all 8)

Cameras were fine last night at the concert...WOW what a concert!!!

They didn't check for them and the guards down in the front said it was fine to take as many pictures as we wanted as long as we didn't go over a certain line. :lol:

It's absolutely gorgeous today in Lakeland, FL! I live about 20 minutes from the venue. It's sunny with only a few clouds, mild temps, and a nice breeze. It feels great! I hope tomorrow is just as nice.

One more night of scaring people at Universal Studios.
I've got a Caribbean soul I can barely control, and some Texas hidden here in my heart.
