He is onstage. Just jamming so far. We are pushed back so far that I can't get a good photo.

In regards to the PIT LINES!!! I asked around and the Main Venue/What Stage opens around half an hour before the first act, but it is only opened when the crews are given the all clear, so noonISH. There are two ways to get to this stage. There is the arch, and the What/Which crossover. For VIPs (like myself) I believe there is a private entrance on the far opposite side facing the stage, but it is the closest to the left pit line. As for a meetup, how about breakfast? P.S. Natalie Portman is on the LED Screen right now.
Breakfast sounds perfect, just let us know where and when. Can't speak for everyone but I will be there. I'm wearing a handmade, 70s-era tie-dye sundress and black Toms tomorrow.
I was thinking 10:30 at the arch. I'll be wearing a 2010 Up and Coming shirt from 2010 and either jeans or yellow shorts with a blue/gold/black backpack.
I'll be there. I'm staying in Brentwood since I wanted to do other things around the area so I will give myself plenty of time to get to day parking and to the arch. Like I said.... tie-dye dress girl. Hate I can't be at soundcheck but I didn't plan the whole vacation solely around 'Roo so I will just take solace in tomorrow. Very disappointed Mumford cancelled but I do understand and wish Ted the speediest and safest of recoveries... just an excuse to catch them on tour next time!!

I expected him to, which is why I find it a little odd he's sound checking it in the open like that. He doesn't usually do that. Bonnaroo Jam Honey Hush Benefit of Mr. Kite Magical Mystery Tour Eight Days a Week? Penny Lane!

Technically, this is a free soundcheck. It's worth it!

Surprised with him soundchecking 8 days and Kite! Penny Lane's one not often wheeled out these days...might be a spot somewhere for that in the show.

And soundchecking Rita, too? My..this is all most unusual. He hasn't soundchecked all those since the first night of this tour I believe, in South America.

The reason the newer songs (kite, Rita, etc..,) were checked is because McCartney is using the festival's PA. All bands use festival audio equipment (except monitors and backline.) I want to address the pit line. I met some of you tonight at soundcheck and we contemplated options. The VIP Entrance to the Main Venue is NOW GENERAL ADMISSION. Where as it is close to the pit lines, you haven't been through security and you will have to have bags checked. With the arch, you are the farthest from the pit lines but it will have the most precision when opening. The What/Which stage crossover is in between the two. It has a decent access but we don't know how it will open. Meetup 10:30 at the arch IN CENTEROO, so go through security. Same place as the soundcheck. We can work out the kinks then. On another note, whispers were spreading about this at soundcheck and it is official from Rolling Stone, Mumford and Sons have canceled.

He soundchecks it from time to time. This soundcheck is a nice treat for you guys who are there tonight, thanks for the reports!

We think a lot alike. I remember reading what a huge error it was to have him close Glastonbury(?) a few years ago, and he nearly put the whole place to sleep.
