I'm gonna have one hell of a Good Good Time. This will be trip #2 just for DMB. #1 being HDC N1 2005. The security at that show was really tight, they wouldn't even let people move around. I hope the security is not like this at the Bowl.

I think they are kinda tight about being in the aisles, but I don't know for sure because we were in a box and no one really spills over into the aisles with those. They were lax about smoking as multiple items were being passed around our section and no one got hassled, although i don;t know if they saw it. also, they do a comprehensive search getting into the venue- empty pockets, bags, metal detectors, pat down, the whole deal. It takes forever and there is a GIANT mob of people trying to get in. It's not like an arena where you have entrances 360 around the venue. Since it's built into the hill I think there are only 2 entrances with the main one being a complete nightmare. Leave lots of extra time to get in.
Home Depot was ridiculous- last time, we were in the second floor section back but front row, so there was all this space in front of us and people would just come and hang out and dance and it was great. every 10 minutes security hassled us to make it single file by the seats and ask to see a ticket. they kicked everyone out. such a buzzkill to deal with them in the middle of a song. I do much prefer the Bowl to Home Depot- at the least you can see the stage from any seat, unlike floor at HDC which is flat. Luckily I'm tall but my wife always had trouble.
