Love the acts I've seen here but hate the venue. As others have said, security sucks, and the bathrooms are gross.
Would it kill them to turn on the AC? It is crazy, stifling hot in the Marquee. Is this a way to sell drinks? Plan on wearing as little as possible so you don't faint from heat exhaustion.
I don't get their super-long will call lines either. Why make most shows mandatory will call if you only have two windows to distribute tickets?
Don't worry if you have a long wait though. The band won't start without you because no one ever starts before 9pm. Again, another way to sell drinks.
I would strongly discourage any woman from buying a drink at the Marquee. I know of at least 3 women who have had very strange reactions (including blacking out) after having a couple drinks here. Just play it safe and stick with bottled water.
