re: This Saturday at Jazzfest was the worst festival experience of my life

We got within what felt like a half-mile of Elton John stage 1 hour before showtime and didn't even attempt to go closer.

If you'd come around the rear of Acura through the first gate from the track stage right you wouldn't have any trouble getting very close to the stage. I went in and out before and during Elton with no problems.

On days like that when you know it's going to be packed it is what it is but knowing how to navigate your way around the fairgrounds will save you a ton of frustration.

I think they should charge people extra to bring in chairs or strollers and I think they should have daily tickets with a cap. But I doubt either of those will ever happen.

I can't imagine what it would have been like if they'd gotten the Stones.
