If the new measures help with crowd control and make it possible to move between stages with more ease and limit the number of people coming into the area, it could be a vast improvement.

The changes will only be a
The changes will only be a major issue if they are going too use metal detectors & do a search (if they do that it will be a madhouse trying to get in) but if they just do a visual check as people walk in then it shouldn't be too much harder to get in, as most people enter & exit those four ways anyway.
To me what made the event truly unique was that it was just the park, wide open like any other day except there happened to be lots of bands playing, not like an actual "event" with fences & all the usual restrictions. It looks like people can still bring in alcohol and other junk, and the fences likely won't make that much actual difference, but it will change the vibe for me.
But then I stopped going a few years ago because the whole thing was too much hassle so it really doesn't matter to me, but it's still too bad that fear continues to rule the day.
Because if somebody wants to shoot up the place or set off a bomb they'll still easily be able to hop the fence and do their evil deeds. All these changes are for show, and that's what's too bad.
As for Thom, I think he's just annoyed that it's a free event.
Free?!??! Leftist socialism!!!!

Robert Plant needed to be on
Robert Plant needed to be on the Banjo stage which would have prevented crowds getting boxed in by the perimeter fencing at the smaller stage. I talked to a happy cop as we were exiting the park, seriously - he was thrilled that Sunday wasn’t the shit show of Saturday night. The cop said that as fences got pushed down at the Plant performance the cops could only stand back and hope for the best. seeing SWAT teams in the park was a first and unsettling. But I overcame the buzz kill by talking to them about a performance I heard about by a Chinese SWAT team where they did a full on choreographed dance routine in uniform - with weapons - to the Mission Impossible soundtrack. Of course the Chinese have time to learn to dance since they rarely have the mass shootings that have become a common occurrence in NRA’s America. Anyway, my message was Dance more..

Thanks to the musicians who
Thanks to the musicians who allow streaming and archiving of their sets. Those that don't have their reasons I am sure. I have been enjoying going back through some of the weekend's sets, and sorry that some of my favorites are not archived. The Flatlanders and Judy Collins were both great and would be fun to revisit. It would also be great to hear Robert Plant's set since I could not get near the stage on account of that damned fence. It seemed literally thousands more people descended on that end of the festival for his set. Fencing in the stage in that circumstance, not a good idea. That was a logistical fuck up for a generally well run weekend, and overall not as crowded as some years. There were a lot of police around, but they were relaxed with the citizens and visitors out for the party.
Kronos Quartet's Music For Change: Pete Seeger @ 100. That was a highlight and is in the video archive. Both of my daughters are San Francisco Girls Chorus alumni, so I both smile and tear up listening to the Chorus girls singing "We Shall Overcome."
