[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Literally no spot left to sit as in there was a crowd of people standing behind the lawn because they couldn’t fit? Or no spots big enough or far enough away from people to suit your preference? I can’t imagine paying that money, spending the time and effort getting there, and then forcing my kid to leave (unless it was truly packed like sardines and dangerous). Plus if this was the princess show, you missed a great show! My friend was there with her daughter and sent me a few videos. Looked like so much fun. [/quote] It was truly packed like sardines. And I was actually just saying to my husband what would happen if there was an emergency- it would be a stampede. It was not fun. Kid did not want to stay. It was not the Princess show. [b]We were at that show in the seated section on Wednesday night. That was wonderful. Thus, with that experience and having never done the lawn, it never occurred to me that this experience would be so atrocious[/b]. If the venue capped lawn sales at half or 2/3, it would be lovely. This was awful and yes, it felt unsafe. It was jam packed. I also feel that $50 a ticket for that is too much - now that I’ve seen what it is. $20 maybe. My two cents - it’s a money grab.[/quote] I know you've taken your toys and gone home now -- sorry, meant to say, you've exited the thread -- but... If you were there for the princess show in the seats, you surely [i]saw[/i] the lawn layout. But you didn't realize that from the lawn, unless you're seated at the very front closest to the building, you wouldn't be able to see the stage? Did you not see a crowded lawn behind you, when you were there for the princess concert? I can't imagine the Studio Ghibli concert lawn was MORE packed than the lawn for the uber-popular princess concert, unless it was actively raining during the princess show. [/quote] Well, dig deep into that imagination of yours because….it was. Much more packed. It was completely sold out seats and lawn. Princess concert was not. We were front center at princesses and could see all the building behind us. Princesses was maybe 1/2 to 2/3 full, seated. Lawn had a lot of people but nothing like tonight. That was why I was totally unprepared for the mess that was tonight. I, unlike you apparently, was actually at both events. Also, you sound like a moron above with toys thing. Grow up. Knock yourself out defending the place. But it was not a good experience, and people should know what they could be in for going there. God, even just trying to walk back to the car, which we ended up parking on the side of the road back into a neighborhood- in the pitch dark - dangerous and so not worth it. No thanks. Sure, you might luck out and get a good night like princesses, but you could also end up with a mess like tonight. No thanks. And now for real, good night and good bye.[/quote] "And now for real, good night and good bye" -- so you're going off in a huff a[i] second time.[/i] And no one who tosses off "moron" at someone else should be telling anyone else to "grow up." You seem very sensitive about how not everyone is backing you up here. I agree! Your experience for one show was bad for you. And your experience for another show was good. [b]You seem fixated on shouting about the negative[/b]. Next time something you want to see is at this venue, you now know: Seated tickets or don't go.[/quote] We are not corporations' cheerleaders we don't need to speak "positively" about them, no obligation to do that. More gaslighting here. Yes the OP can make a choice to go or no go again, but you seem so so offended that she is expressing her thoughts. It doesn't matter what you think. [/quote] Hi, Free Speech Confused Person! Yes, OP can whine about her experience (much of which was a result of her own poor choices and overinflated expectations) on a privately-run message board, as long as she stays within its published terms of service. She (and/or you) DOESN’T have the right to do that and demand that people not respond in ways she doesn’t like or agree with. Yay “free speech!” Oh, and it “doesn’t matter” what *you* think either.[/quote] You actually prove my point. No matter how much you want her and other to stop talking badly about wolf trap you can't, despite your insults and your asking slyly "why are you still here (on this message board". [/quote]
