[4 PM] {We set out from the room, enjoying a nice stroll along the resort. Arrive at the early admit line to find that it is really short: less than 100 people today, sweet!}
[4:45 PM] {Tagging for early entry is all over at 66 or thereabouts. If they manage things OK the scene could be pretty chill. More space for twirling!}

{Goose was sound-checking earlier today (while we ate lunch); now MORE! is running through things. The sound outside the venue is a bit murky, could be the HF getting swished away in the evening breeze or sucked up by all the venue attractions along the beach.}
[5:10 PM] {Soundcheck seems to be done. Still breezy!}
[5:59 PM] {We've crossed into the venue but they're holding us on the beach. Annoying! I have to go pee!
[6:07 PM] {And we're just off the rail, just to Stage Rt of center. Some of the rail folks bitching already about how the space situation has shaken out: some things never change!}
