Lines going to be EPIC?

XR

I was looking about (briefly) and was wondering some things about lines:

1. On Friday, what time are people going to show up to wait in line?
2. Does anyone have an estimate of the number of people that are going to be there on Friday waiting for entrance?
3. With the first 4,000 getting concert wrist bands, how quickly do people think these will be gone?
4. How will this compare to Sat and Sun?

All I know is the lines were epic last year, tons of people playing DS!

The best advice I can give to anyone on planning on joining a line is to approach the nearest British person and ask how it's done and what on earth the appeal is? We're very good at queing you see. No idea why. Must be to do with 'Dunkirk spirit' or something...

The lines move really quickly once the doors open so it doesn't really matter when you get there unless you HAVE to be one of the first in. I can't guess at how long the line ended up being or how many people were there but I showed up a few hours early and ended up in the middle of the room, with the room being very large, and the line ending somewhere outside it.

I wouldn't even worry about the wrist bands. I have never been denied entrance just hearing music and walking in. It was a little tight at the Meydenbauer Center, but last year there was PLENTY of room. Especially if you show up to one of the earlier acts when the crowds are smaller. The wristbands are not an issue.

I can't comment on Sat or Sun either, I just showed up after the doors opened and walked right in.

Yeah, I really didn't have an issue with lines last year. '06 was line hell for everything though. I usually just showed up to things after the lines had thinned out a bit, and was still able to get a good seat.
