A guest 60% for Jackson Browne at Way Over Yonder 2014 festival · Fri, 26 Sep 2014
For a festival type concert it would have been better to allow seating with chairs, blankets etc. So please pick a bigger venue. Don't have two different band viewing areas. I never saw the other bands because I didn't want to loose my good viewing space at the main stage area. Of course I came to hear Jackson Browne so a longer set from him would have been better. The other bands were very good & I purchased their music. Cash only at the merchandise table? That was a bummer. I enjoyed myself until the drunk guy pushed on me for the entire Jackson Browne show and I couldn't move for fear I wouldn't get back to my place that I staked out all day. I did have seating on the side barrier area and the guy sat in my space as I was standing up. He was passed out and leaning into me. The very nice security kid woke him up but that only lasted for a few minutes and he was touching me with his legs and sandwiched me between him and my friend. I asked him several times to quite touching me and I asked him to move back to where he came from. That was not gonna happen and I didn't want to cause a scene in the middle of Jackson's show. I appreciated the VIP area with the few bathrooms in the back. Over all I had a enjoyable time but I'm not sure that I would do this again.
