Free Jim Beam shot from 3 to 5 again today Maybe by 5, it will sound appealing, but warm Jim Beam samples don't sound good in this heat  |

For reference, it is right next to the Rise Stage (but facing the opposite direction), which is in the same spot as it was last year. It's def possible to walk between the stages in 5 minutes. |

It's def possible to walk between the stages in 5 minutes. Yeah, but there is no way to have a good spot for both stages like the old days. They are much further than the P4k stages, but a little closer than lolla's |

"where Pitchfork saw the majority of its attendees mask up any time they entered the crowded area of the fields in front of a stage" was not really what i saw at all last weekend |

More masks and stringent checks of vax cards than Lolla for sure. Probably fewer masks than pitchfork but the dust isn’t bad here, and there weren’t a ton of masks at pitchfork

I definitely see waaaay more masks than Lolla.. wasn't at pitchfork to be able to judge. And yes at least a few of the food vendors I've been to took cards.

yesterday I wore my mask the entire time from office to the train to riot fest to my car in the rush garage, with the only exception being the 20 seconds it took me to drink each of two orange flavored red bulls. and I'll do the same tomorrow and Sunday. (I blew off today's riot fest for reasons I explain in the work thread). |

Leaving after Disarm was a smart move. Don't know if any band was exactly what I expected as much as Pumpkins were tonight. I thought they'd be good and they were exactly good.
