Great event overall with two major flaws
by eventgoer777 on 9/26/11PIEDMONT PARK - AtlantaRating: 4 out of 5The groups were fantastic and everything was surprisingly right on time. Food and beverage outlets provided for a great assorment and their abundance was spot-on for this event. Flaws While there were plenty of areas to place them, there were no port-a-pottys anywhere near the stages and you had to walk at least 10-15 min to get to them. There were plenty of them on hand, but they should have had some parked between the two stages.... there was plenty of room for them. I understand the need for barriers to keep out gate-crashers during the show. However, there was a dangerous crush of people trying to leave the venue after Coldplay closed. Forcing xx thousand people through a single 15' wide exit at one time could result in a very dangerous situation. They should have simply dropped the barriers to 10th Street and everyone could just walk out. I couldn't imagine the aftermath if something bad happened (e.g., 1996 Centennial Park) as you just couldn't get out of there. I do hope they bring the event back and think they did a great job overall and looking forward to next year already!
