I"m sure the answers to these questions are somewhere in this thread but I'll ask anyway. We haven't been to JB @ JB since 2004 and we are wondering how early you can show up, and what is the desired lot. I recall getting there around 10a-ish and parking in what seemed to be the closest lot to the theater (very close to beachhouse/bathrooms). Is this still do-able, and is there a name/number for this lot?

As long as the drenching rain that hit us last year stays away it's all good! 8) Now trying to see how early I can get hubby to head down!
Sunrise is good. 8)
Yeah...that's definitely not going to happen! :lol: I'm not a morning person!

The lot closest to the theater is lot 5. The lots all used to open at 8am, I'm not sure if they still do but they should be open by 10.

A little help?

Hi all, I just got back from Alpine Valley(great show!) where I bought a cool shirt for my mom, which turned out to be a bit on the small side. :( Since I'm not going to be able to make it to another show this year, I was hoping maybe someone going to Jones Beach might be willing to pick one up and send it to me. If someone might be willing to, drop me a line either here or at micksbuddy at hotmail dot com, and I can put a check for the shirt & shipping in the mail. Thanks!

Hey
Just wondering if some people feel the same as I do.
After last years rain n lighting storm that delayed the start of the show, our group missed the opening 3 songs. Then the show was cut short by 4 songs because of time constraints.
Do you think JB will try to make up for the short show or is it forgotten.
This is not a complaint , just seeing if others feel the same.

Helloooo parrotheads!! All ready for the big show!!?? We have an 800 mile drive ahead of us tomorrow to get there, but can't wait!! I have a quick question on the cups for the well informed. We're planning on bringing along the frozen concoction maker and handing out some rum drinks. Normally, we just use small clear cups, which come along pretty inexpensive. Is this going to be an issue, or do we really NEED to get solid coloured cups??
