I was close up for last years Arcade Fire show and I had some beer/wine (maybe a 6 pack and 2 bottles of wine) in my backpack easily visible when they searched it and they let me in. Same for the Sigur Ros show the year before. I'm not sure if that is good or bad, because I don't remember a thing from either show :(.</p> http://laist.com/2008/05/30/dear_laist_can.php#comment-1374457 http://laist.com/2008/05/30/dear_laist_can.php#comment-1374457 Comments Fri, 30 May 2008 18:14:18 -0800 <p>My first time at the Bowl, at Flaming Lips, I read the website carefully and told my friends we couldn't bring alcohol. But EVERYBODY brought alcohol, and I mean everybody--wine bottles, beer bottles, even a cooler. This may be the web policy, but everybody ignores it. Just make an effort to hide your stuff somewhat. They'll look at an open bag, but won't dig underneath at all. I've been to 10-15 events since then, and every event (leased or not) is very BYOB. Of course, I'm totally in the cheap seats. Maybe they crack down closer.</p>
