Just curious.. what is the parking situation like at Branstock?


you just read my mind....does anyone know?

Post by: Drew_Kingsley on August 29, 2008, 11:43:22 am
As far as I remember, it\'s all street parking. You may end up walking a little bit, but you will definitely find a spot somewhere. Maybe somebody from the area knows of some good places.

There\'s no special lots for this event - just street parking.   There are lots of side streets (and bank/church lots), but you might have to walk a few blocks.  When Seth played the green last month, the band got passes for parking.   For Branstock, however, there are no such passes.

It\'s usually not too bad (and it probably won\'t be crowded until later on).  Should be lots of kids/families floating around.

Thanks.

Street parking and walking is fine by me. I like to people watch along the way.

there\'s a small free parking lot (made for the local shops) behind a building on the corner of Montowese and Main.  Besides that, many of the side streets have small lots for the shops or street parking. So basically, once you see the library, start looking down the left streets for parking.   I suggest not parking,though, where the police dept is.  ;)

 If you dont mind walking, theres always the lot at Hammerfield. Thats located if you take the right where the old small town branford theater used to be....and plenty of side streets here and there in between it to park too.  Even St. Mary\'s Church lot should be good after 7.  (last mass is at 5).  During the day, it will be a pain for parking (due to the hustle and bustle of suburbia life down there) but for the evening show for GTB, I think parking should be easy to find.

I\'ve seen in a few places that Branstock is postponed until tomorrow due to the weather. Is this true or false, and what does that change (if true) due to the band lineup?

Robin - B/c Ron will be traveling back to Milford, Seth is losing his bass player.  So he and I are just going to do an acoustic duo set after Earth (3:30-4:30).   I think Seth and I will head down to Milford after to support Ron & Seanie etc..
