Could someone drive by GW and check the signage.. thanks

I'll be driving by there Thursday morning at around 8:30 on my way to Shaw's so I can check it out that morning. I'm sure it will say the same thing but it's still worth checking out.
I can swing by on Wed! Not that far out of the way...
I am hoping that when you drive by, there will be those pretty orange cones in the road to tell me that they are planning on opening sooner than 3.

Just in from Parrothead Club of Eastern Mass.

We have been working to confirm the parking lot details and were hoping to actually have them bend the rules and let us in earlier than the posted times. That is NOT going to happen. They are serious about the 3pm Thursday and noon Saturday opening times. In addition, we understand that Mansfield and surrounding Police will be patrolling local parking lots and hotels and disbanding any groups they find loitering there.

I think it will be a gradual thing as people wake up and shake out the cobwebs and make their way out to the pool.

We'll see what happens when our bus pulls in at 11:30. They charge us a crazy amount of money to park, they better let us in when we get there.

If they consider that they notified you I'm thinking you're going to be SOL too.

I'm sure there will be plenty of hotel cancellations so there should be room! :D And I'm sure we could squeeze you in somehow.

That is what pi$$es me off the most. We started planning for this year's bus trip the day after last year's. If they announced this say 6 months ago, we could have made accomodations. Because of this, Thursday probably my last show in the northeast. It's a shame. Next year it's Tampa and the 1-800-ASK-GARY ( :lol: ) Amphitheater.

We feel your pain! We're in the same boat with Alpine Valley announcing the parking lots will not open until 3pm (for a Saturday concert!) Of course, we hope they're just blowing smoke, but there's a really good chance they will enforce it. I hope you all have a great time this week under the Big Top!!!

"Just a hopeless situation, make the best of it's all you can do" :wink:

I have been griping on the Comcast Center FB page, which I only decided to like because I wanted to gripe. Come to find out, they knew back on May 18th that they will change the gate times:

: Comcast Center Any Parrotheads out there? Just wanted to let you crazy Margaritaville residents know that for the Thursday June 17th Buffett show our parking lots will be opening at 3pm!!
May 18 at 8:17pm · Comment · Like"

So why did we (ticket buyers) not find out until last week? Does it take 2 weeks for LiveNation 2 weeks to process and send out bulk emails?!

Same here. No email. Nada.

I see a train wreck coming.... People haven't gotten the word if they're not on BN or in a club. They'll show up with nowhere else to go. There's gonna be trouble when the police start breaking things up.... :-?

Not to mention people drinking somewhere then hopping in cars at 2. Really bad plan. I see lots of diet coke in my Thursday.
