Title: Question on seating @ Dearborn
Post by crazy4goo on Jul 5^th, 2005, 10:39am

Does anyone one know if we're allowed to bring chairs/blankets to sit on?

I honestly don't think lawn chairs are allowed. I know for sure that the kind of folding chairs in a bag are definately NOT allowed. I do remember reading that.

Somewhere on here, there was an entire list of no-no's.

I tried going back thru, but I'm not able to find the list.

Pretty much anything you want to bring, it'll be shot down! LOL At least t hat's how I remember the list.

BTW, if you really need to know, look on the back of your ticket and I think it has a list of no-no's. Or you can call the phone # for the course and they can tell you what is allowed or not allowed.

That would be great. It would be nice to sit on a blanket or towel just in case the grass is wet.

That's a great idea! We used pillowcases for our signs in Sioux Falls-worked perfectly. It'll give you something to do while you're waiting. We got them at the local Wal Mart-I think I've been to Wal Marts all over the country while on Goo trips to get our pix developed or to buy rain ponchos-not that those did any good in Buffalo last year! lol

I decided not to go to Dearborn after all so I won't get to meet up with you all :( I'd rather save the money for the tour and for NYE. Have a blast-can't wait to read everyone's reviews!! �:) It's the next best thing to being there.

OK, Michelle talked to TCP (that's the golf course) and they said, blankets will be OK to bring. chairs WITHOUT arms are acceptable too!

Just thought I'd pass that along! :D

I'm bringing a flat sheet to "sit" on, but it'll also be a banner! ;)

By the looks of the other concert set ups we're gonna have a pretty stiff neck if we end up front row!!!
What's with the friggin (seems like) 50 FT Wall.
I hope it isn't as high as it looks in the pic! ! That will totally suck!

That and did you happen to notice that the stage looks like it's at the top of a hill? It could be interesting standing for an hour and a half on an angle like that.

I DID notice that!!! WTF.... whoever planned that stage set up had their head up their ass! I wish I knew what venue that set up was for, I'd almost call and ask if the stage is a permanent set up or if the stage set up was going to be similar or what.....
