I'm late to the discussion, but security was terrible last year. There was no reason to frisk me when I was wearing a bikini. There is literally nowhere to hide contraband! I'm VIP, too - from the west gate, maybe 50 yards away from gettting all the booze I want. SMH. Perverts.
I went out with Shell's three younger sisters tonight. I was pre-introduced as the Deadhead and everyone was talking to me as if I was the old man. Very weird night. But one dude brings up Umphreys and says I should listen to them and I respond that I have seen quite a few Umphreys shows and me and her oldest sister Jess were at Hangout last year and before I could even finish he said "Oh my god! You guys saw the Umph and Lupe song?!?". Ive been to a ton of shows this year and a bunch of festivals but that will always be the highlight of my summer (outside of the whole Chicago Fare Thee Well experience). Still watch the video and mildly tear up.

Love the concept of being a 58 year old kid Zaj. Y'all have an amazing Thanksgiving! Love the wrestling gifs. Memories of watching Tojo Yamamoto busting heads with metal folding chairs with my grandparents on a black and white TV. LOL!

I'm not going to Hangout this year, but after the 1st day of being frisked last year. As I approached the security, I would hold my hands up & say your going to like this as much as I am, have fun!! Never did I come close to being touched, they would simply say your good,go on. Probably wont work for the girls but guys you should give this a try. Say it loud so others around you can hear & it embarrasses them to the point they don't want to be that guy. It worked 2-3 times a day for me going in & out.
I love getting molested and having my time wasted by someone making minimum wage to try and find my flask. I just find it pitiful that they open up my flashlight to check inside, along with opening my contact case looking for things they've never even heard of, yet some fuckstick is able to get in a handgun in a couple years ago.
Same deal with movie theaters checking bags now because of shooters. Yea, if I'm gonna carry a piece in there it'll be in my waistband. Bag checks just looking for snacks etc under the guise of safety.
I equate crap like this with the fuck-you fees that are on tickets. Speaking of which, I've bought tickets before online where the TM fees were higher than the ticket price (Butthole Surfers NOLA HOB '09).

Just booked my condo at the Boardwalk right next to Sea N Suds! This is exciting since the past few years we stayed out of town in a hotel 30 minutes away. We also would arrive the night before the fest but now the plan is to get there early Wednesday. Has anyone ever stayed at the Boardwalk and have a review? Any suggestions on restaurants, bars, things to do etc. to keep us busy until the Fest?

I totally get that we need to be searched but I really hated getting grabbed the way I did going through security. I have gone the past 3 years and this year was way worse than previous years. My husband had his junk grabbed every time he went through. The woman checking me on the second day was almost reaching into my bra. I was wearing a pretty tight shirt, if something was in there you would be able to see it. Some of them were nice but their overall demeanor was pretty nasty from what I experienced. I never gave any attitude toward them and was polite. There were also tons of people with go pro sticks in there but they took mine away I don't understand why those aren't allowed..

Last year the security was ridiculous. Every time I walked through except maybe twice they pointed me to the side to have a "special search" by the police. My friends never received this treatment but I guess my attire looked sketchy. They never found anything but were extremely rude and forceful.. Let's hope this year isn't as bad.

If Cage the Elephant had any balls they'd open up with In One Ear and play most of their first album just to spite all the kids there to hear Cigarette Daydreams.

See yu at the pre party.
**pending lineup.
I'll be there from Wednesday thru Tuesday. I like Cosmos, Docks in Orange Beach for lunch, the Hangout restaurant is good, and Steamers if you want seafood. I usually have a poboy at Shrimp Basket. I make my own bar. Flora Bama can be good and it can be real bad. There are a few of us staying at Island Winds and Ocean Reef on the west side. We will have to plan a party as time for Hangout gets closer. Do you play guitar?
