I took my son to the Friday Vibes show for his 16th birthday present. Him being a true Vermont small town hick and me being a transplant from CT 30+ years ago. Neither of us has ever been to anything that big. My question is: How big was that Friday crowd? Can anybody give a fairly accurate number based on day ticket sales + camping passes?

Initially it was, but it really cleared out during their set. At least back by the sound stage where we were

Yeah about 20 minutes into the set, the whole area by the soundboard opened up. I think partially because the view there was pretty limited, but it also seemed like a lot of the crowd wanted nothing to do with the Jane's Addiction set. :dunno: Their loss!!

It's called being old and boring. But what can I say. I left 5 songs into Furthur and I thought it was a great decision.

Keep in mind that the stage has moved up a bit. The stage used to be next to the bandshell, now it is in front of it.

I'd agree if we didn't see a bunch of younger kids also leaving.

If I wasn't having fun hanging with some great folks during Furthur, I probably would have been gone during the first set myself. So glad I caught Bethel and SPAC as well. :lol:
