Tell Me :
Talk
Your typical lame ass self absorbed nominally engaged classic rock crowd that makes concerts so frustrating for those of us who are there for the music.
Massive, massive crowd yet the facilities are top notch and more than adequate. A couple of crowd bottlenecks leaving or at the entrance to the restrooms when I was on my out during Saturday intermission but I never really waited in line for anything.
Talk about your favorite band.

Was there any sort of ticket scalping scene outside the venue?
Just curious?
Heard 3-Day GA's were going for $50 with shuttle pass.

Crowd is good, two very different shows last night
Dylan, had an intro video, which he didn't wait to finish before he went into Rainy Day Women
He sounded good, in fact the sound excellent (I am close to the mixinf table though)
Stones...high energy show...Keith looked kinda lost for most of the first half...his guitar was turned up to the max from Rambler till the end of the show
Crowd is a mix of Baby boomers, Gen-X and Younger...not your usual festival bustle but for the most part polite
Mech tents...there is one big one in the back that has everything they will be selling..all acts and the event stuff
The smaller tents have the event stuff and merch for the acts that night...merch is not the full scope of each act...only t-shirts...short and Long and the Stones' offerings were Special Event style

The question was about the crowd and venue, not the music.
