Took all tent stakes(plastic and metal)and PVC we had for a shade structure. They said no homemade tents are allowed.

Someones canopy or tent is going to fly up and really hurt someone or cause some damage.

Seriously...that's really F'in lame!!

When tents start blowing away tomorrow we'll hear the world's largest forehead slap from the entire GV staff.

This is the most passive aggressive festival I've ever attended.

What the fuck? These things need to be mentioned ahead of time.

[vogina]

What we know: Both plastic and metal stakes are being removed. Rubber mallets and PVC piping as well. It has been said that "no homemade tents are allowed".

[a3s1g1]

what the hell is the point of not allowing tent stakes when CRAZY VIOLENT WINDS and rain is expected? that's dumb.

[tharris]

45 minutes until we get in line. What is the wait like right now?

[BROKENDOLL]

Oh and they just took peoples tent stakes

Right, and they probably missed the 4 oz. of kush sitting on the dashboard.

[amili.oh]

Really great info, guess my group will totally not even bring any stakes, mallets, etc to avaoid getting them taken away

What?

[cgraham149]

That looks like the security line to get in...not the camping spot.

I was thinking the same thing. But I guess you could think of it this way...




Implying that stakes plus weed = NOOOOOO!

[damianesqu]

[funkinger]

I doubt it. They still need people to attend the festival.

[Eddie S.]

doh!

[Litewait]

Thats the line to get in/search. Not the camping spots. LOL!

[cgraham149]

Where on the Coachella map does the security line start? What road do they route you down to the car camping?

[LetThereBeLight]

Haven't seen any dogs, lots of horses though

[BeaverCat]

Does anyone know if they're taking away the corkscrew stakes?

[vogina]

Does anyone know if they're taking away the corkscrew stakes?

No official word yet on what type of stakes they are taking. Assume all?

[AgainstFeist]

I would count on it and hide them well.

[sassypants]

ok they wised up and started putting tent campers closer to entrance first. However I am staying put. If you see a solo tent at the far end come say hi!

sorry if this is posted twice my phone doesn't like the forums.

they are letting people drop off stuff near entrance and then park so walk is not quite as bad. Esp since they moved camp spots closer. The later you arrive the farther you will walk.

tent camping security did not take stakes but questioned robber mallet and after talking to supervisor it was let in. This was 3 hours ago.

What we know: What are robber mallets?

[vogina]

Seriously though...

Some have said PVC piping, stakes, and rubber mallets have been removed. Sassy Miss Sassypants says they allowed her to keep stakes and questioned but let her keep her rubber mallet.


Hmmm.
