Well not really, the farm had holes in the fence and was in no shape for a 100,000 capacity. The stage was barley getting finished before people started slipping in through the fences.

My tickets are for the balcony so I head up the extremely steep stairs to a gorgeous hallway with windows that are very typical to a church. I observed all of the posters filling the walls of past bands that have performed on the stage.
