Look like our usual 2-3 time slot would be a good time to hang in 932.

Anyone seen a time for early entry?

I think you're making short shrift of the number of Portugal the Man and Trampled By Turtles fans we have on this board.

Chances that Jack White plays for more than an hour?

Any chance he'll play something that resembles an actual song and not an excuse to shred?

I won't be staying to find out, but I'm going to go with "NO".

maybe things have changed and now he just shreds but listening to Blunderbuss there is hardly any shredding.. the songs are very compact.. probably averaging about 3 minutes in length!

you want shredding go see Trey Anastasio or Warren Haynes...

I think that's called "noodling", at least for the former.

Based upon past experience, does anybody know the answer to this...

...if you're lucky enough to get pavillion seats, can one or more of your party get up to pee or eat or wander the grounds while one of your party saves the seats? And can the wandering/eating/peeing party get right back into the pavillion, or do they have to wait in some kind of long line with people who don't have seats?

yes you can get up to go eat/pee/etc; yes another person can hold your seat; and yes the wanderer/pee'er/etc'er will have to wait in line with everyone else to get back in.
