Here's a suggestion for Planet Bluegrass, who I know do not want to make a lot of changes, which is understandable. Perhaps the emcee can come out to the stage this year, and make the following announcement:

  Well howdy folks! How bout _____? Did they set fire to the stage or what? So we have an announcement. We are thinking of creating a zone, a strip of land if you will, next year in 2013, near the front in which tarps will be limited to 8'x10' size. What do you think?
 Then you can decide, just as they do with audience response to band contests....

It's been a while since I've heard this phrase but does the above image connote "Eat Me"?  LOL

That is a really pretty snake! Is it some sort of albino king? We have 3 kings as pets

Can mean a lot of things, but really hadn't really thought of it that way ... which was definitely not my intent!  BB: please know I'm not looking to give you a hard time (or anyone else for that matter), but just feel the way I do about a slight adjustment in tarp policy.  Not saying I'm "right" either.

FOM, I know you are not giving me a hard time - no worries, man!

Man, I may need some inspiration (move me brightly) to figure out some other meanings for that pic.

Glad you're not taking it personal!  Cheers

Maybe it's not a perfect analogy/metaphor:  but if one is waiting in the tarp line (or covertly jockeying for position) while the current day's show is still in progress, is one not "self-cannabilizing" on that which is already present and healthy?   ... at what point do you sacrifice the present for the future?

Whoa, I definitely need some inspiration to get that deep right now.  Wink

I've never and will never miss one day's show to get in line for the next. I know most of my crew won't do that either. I don't get it but hey, for those that do, well it's their journey.

A snake eatting its own tail also symbolizes a never ending cycle in many mythologies. Seems appropriate here since this topic seems to come up every year.

Hey Matt, look forward to meeting you this year!

Until then, I'm going to stick with my Animal House logic of "Eat me".  Wink

I was thinking we had come "full circle" with this topic rearing it's ugly head... again.

Matt bout rapped up the snake image like I saw it.  I still gotta bit of prompt for opening up the dining lawn over yonder there.  Only way to do that is with tarps like recommended, what is the current size?  10X20 gives ample room for eight, ten tight?  I suppose 8X10 is a four top.  I thought the size was posted?  Peeps doubling up on Shade Hs. and tarp I suppose is inevitable, as groups intermingle.  Which I suppose is a good thing, keeps down the inbreeding.  It's a darn good time as it was, seems to change a little each year.
