The Blue Comet Stage looks to be as long as 1.5 football fields. Here's some aerial maps, bing and google. My skills aren't good enough to overlay the festival map to actual maps.

There is no walking path from ellis island to liberty state park, is there? edit: I check google map, looks like there is.

I was, I was in the PIT. Surprising number of kids in the audience, not that I'm a geezer myself at 27. Here is an example of how kiddie the 3 teenage girls next to me were: some girl went slightly nuts and threw beer from here open cup everywhere, the 3 teenagers proceed to say "she spilled beer on me" like it doesn't usually happen. I only really got into it during the 2nd half, I'm not a huge fan. I think they played a lot of oldies and the show was nearly 3 hrs long(very nice). They said they played Jesus of Suburbia for the 1st time last night on this tour. They ended with Billie Joe doing two songs acoustically. I went to the two club shows in NYC earlier this year and I thought those were more fun but the crowd at MSG is a lot more diverse. Not that they are bad, but a lot of the songs sound the same. I also can't help feeling ironic & cringey when they sing songs about rebellion like American Idiot & Know Your Enemy & Mass Hysteria b/c of their corporate partnerships and their fans.

It's pretty ridiculous that the super VIP ticket is $439/day. The bathroom situation must be bad for them to actively promote A/C bathrooms.

I guess there aren't too many Flight of the Conchords fans here. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9Qu3iP3RYA]YouTube - Flight of the Conchords Ep 7 'Albi the Racist Dragon'[/ame]

Are you a racist dragon?

I still have to buy a ticket, lucky for me people are trying to unload them on cl.

I just want to see Coldplay period lols.

Sadly, I don't think it's likely anyone without the super VIP tickets will get to be in the front. Being so short I don't think I'll be able to see anything but I'll enjoy it. I'm on the waiting list for Oxfam so I still didn't get my ticket yet, not that I think it'll sell out. They put out the schedule. Coldplay will be on at 9:15pm. Kinda sucks that MGMT will be on at the same time on a different stage, was looking forward to hearing what they sound like.

Poor Andy.

oh wow. what a great match.

4 hours!

Andy needs a hat change, that thing must weigh a ton.

they are both too darn good.

uh oh federer. this match got to ridiculous level.

You a "Arrested Development" fan? lols.

It's becoming Brunch at Wimbeldon for the 3rd year in a row for the North American folks

5th set!

Oh nos, that didn't look good for Roddick.

this is definitely going to be a five setter.

Last year's was ridiculous, don't know if this is up to that level yet.

NBC just showed Russell Crowe watching the match, he doesn't look as fat as the gossip has made him out to be.

Deuce!
