I thought festival seating was done after The Who concert. Who would want to be up front in such a situation in which you can get crushed forward? Some people have such unhinged fervor about entertainment, you can see how they can get them to gamble their health with an experimental vax to attend concerts.

I am a police officer here in Houston. I am retiring soon so I put in a application into the security company that had a contract with this event. The security company is a higher end one that recruits retired officers and military. They could not get enough folks to sign up so they offered hourly pay plus 300 a day or per diem. Now we know way. Savages will be savages.
