for those wondering about the alcohol situation:
as long as you\'re not a complete tool about it, you\'ll be fine. I saw quite a few troopers patrolling, but did not see any of them bother anyone who was drinking peacefully. USE A CUP! I had canadian club and coke in my nalgene bottle and was not asked about it either, and you can also bring your empty water bottle inside with you (waters are $6 a pop, soda $7).
No beer sales inside, unless you have passes to the VIP tent.
Also, a band called codename is essentially opening for Phish for the three nights at Jones Beach. You may have heard of them opening for another band you all know and love.
See anyone or everyone this weekend.
