I might just go to Viral Sound at Sully's Pub in Hartford on Saturday. I've mostly seen DSO in a festival type setting and its never been an entire show like their shtick is, more like a greatest hits free-for-all. So I thought when I saw them at a theater I'd get the real DSO experience but no.....same deal.

I'm all for publicly shaming Live Nation and the Wallingford police until they do something. If Ken can keep the nitrous mafia out of a festival, Live Nation can keep them out of one parking lot.
What about the Klein? Should I boycott SPAC or Jones Beach too? And Bowery Ballroom, Best Buy Theater and Irving Plaza too?

Agreed. After Ken & Vibes were publically shamed after Vibes 2009, something was done. Ken realized that it had gotten out of control, and took steps to protect his investment. The Oakdale should do the same.
The issue is money. the gas slingers make a ton of it. That will keep bringing them back. Now if they start to lose money, they will go away...

The Klein isn't a Live Nation venue, and the tank operators have been staying away from FTC's Bridgeport and Fairfield shows as far as I know. Jones Beach is on state property with park police, and the NYC venues front on city sidewalks, where it's the NYPD's problem.
I'm not saying to boycott LN, although I probably will.

I don't support the tank guys anymore, used to give them quite a few of my dollars, but I am not going to boycott a venue because there are tanks there. I'd never get to see the biscuits
