"As you may have heard, many considered the Pearl's admission procedures to be unsafe. The line-up process was chaotic. The general admission load-in was considered unorganized, unprofessional and very dangerous. A number of people have expressed interest in sending formal complaints to the Pearl and other City officials. I have compiled a list of addresses. Most contacts are for staff at the Pearl. At the bottom, I have listed the contact information for the Fire Marshal of the City of Las Vegas." Please see the comments for the list of addresses. (Thanks Kate)
Also, you can write a review of the venue here. (Thanks Sara B.)

Yeah, going down those steps to get to the pit was insane. I am very surprised that no one was trampled.
ReplyDeleteSnitches Get Stitches!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Craig!
ReplyDeleteFantastic, thanks. I'm going to write for sure.
ReplyDeleteI remember once I finally got situated in the pit I thought to myself "now that we all hate each other, let's try to enjoy the concert".
I could go on and on and on about how inconsistent, unprofessional, and completely retarded the process was--at every step of the way. I'll save it for my letter and probably post it here.
Don't expect a response. I sent an email over two weeks ago.... the silence is deafening.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this!
ReplyDeleteThat business at the Pearl was a joke!!
I took my younger sister for her first Cure show and this insane woman started pushing her and trying to hit her because my sister is 5'9". Luckily, a guy right behind grabbed the woman and held her. I had never experienced such a thing at a Cure show before. I even took a picture of the woman just in case I needed it to show police later. MY sister got so sick of this woman putting her hands in her face she left the show and went to gamble. I was pretty disappointed.

ReplyDeleteI actually might take time and write the fire marshall. the way they handled things seemed like they had never done this before - they were just saying things to get ppl to leave. obviously they don't know how persistent cure fans are!
ReplyDeletelike at one point - they tried to pull the troubador trick - the "everyone leave and come back at 7" - BULLSHIT. the crowd didn't budge.
then they lined us up inside - why couldn't they have done that before? i would have sat in line inside there all day - i'm a great stand-in-liner. and omg - going down the endless, winding stairs!!! LORD!! i too am surprised no one was trampled.
but DAMN what a great show!!!
anyway...ONWARDS!!!
happy ever after girl - you must post this photo!!
ReplyDeleteno hitting at cure shows!
except at coachella. :D this was the ONLY show i have ever been to where i actually PUSHED my way forward! what did all those drunk teens care anyway? they didn't even know who the cure was - they just should have left and gone and passed out somewhere.
i think i was the only one in my section that was singing grinding halt with robert without the sound!! what an EXCELLENT moment! i still have images of robert standing there mouthing "no me...no people..." trying to keep everyone going! god what a great memory! kinda bittersweet...
