Look, from the organization point of view, one thing I could not understand was how difficult it would have been to put some sign at the entrance of Bluemont Park indicating where you folks gathered. I arrived there around 1 with my family and did not see anything . So we went to our park in Manassas and spent the rest of the day cursing ANS.
No wonder some ppl have complained about the picnic's quality on this board!

Voicing the same thought: PURU please make sure you have SIGNS ON GMU when we arrive for the SHOW so that we don't turn around in circles to find the damn spot like I had to do last time. ALSO: tell us which will be the CLOSEST parking spot so that we don't have to walk miles afterwards to the car!!
Thanks

Ka garnu, I will let ANS Picnic organizers know about your complain. I also had little hard time finding the exact location.
Suna, GMU does not allow posting custom made signs outside. Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause but here is detail direction to the Venue:

The 1974AD concert will be on the ground floor of Johnson Center. Here is GMU campus map:

Hope this helps.
