Yellow Cops
By: StaceyDiamond

I'm excited that Sundown is back soon, but one thing, I wish they would do away with the yellow shirt cops. I don't mind to have a guy look through my purse to get on a plane, but for a concert that went on for 9 years without incident without them, I find it violating, and frustrating that I can't bring a bottle of water. I also wish the Wailers were coming this year, they're my favorite Sundown band, but Tedeschi puts on a great show. If you haven't seen tomorrow's MP yet the list is there.

They will let you in with a bottle of water, it is the Scott West special that you can't take in. This event is a family friendly event after all.

I have 1 kid, 1 on the way, and I personally could give a damn what people bring in as long as they're not shooting me with it.

I am so thrilled to see my Texas fav, Robert Earl Keen, perform on May 29, I will submit to a strip search if necessary.

what you can take in

Once last year I had got some iced tea from a Sundown vendor, stepped a few inches out of the boundary and a yellow cop would not let me back in with the tea. This was during the heat wave and I was pissed enough to get into it with the yellow cop, so I put the tea in my car and came back.
If someone wants to sneak in a "Scott West special" as anonymous put it, or even a shot bottle, you could easily hide that in your clothing, maybe they'll start a strip search. As for me, I just want to enjoy the show without a privacy invasion and 5$ beer. I hope the Grotto has free admission on Thurs. again this year, it was good way to cool off and get cheaper beer and hear after the show music.
