Good advice. Also take this into account... Narcs are often solitary creatures (actually in pairs). They will also be between 30-40 years old. Dressed in '80's fashion (may be tough to pick out at Dead, as this is common) However, in my experience, they often fuck up on this point. They seem to often look like tweakers in a way. Bad mustache, cut offs, 30ish. AND THEY ARE WAY TOO EAGER!! They will ask you for a hook up. "What do you need?", you would probably ask. They will say something to the effect of "What can I get?" Always walk away from something like that. Do not deal in quanity if you don't know the guy.
Also, most kind souls you meet up with will be willing to spend a few moments of their time with you. At the Dead, it's more of a "Hi, come hang out for a few and lets talk" attitude from someone who is legit.
Which brings me to my last point...... You can find anything you want by simply making friends. Strike up conversation, smoke a bowl or 5, and just chill. Whatever you want is everywhere around you. Just chill, share what you got, make friends (so easy at the Dead) and you will be golden.
Don't force yourself on a scene asking for shit. It's not necessary. Make friends with the closest people around you, get comfortable, and simply ask. You will be taken care of.
If all that fails, someone will whisper in your ear. Probably a few someones. Wait until someone has something reputable (you will hear whats going around, whats good, etc..) and go from there.
Basically, just make a few friends and whatever you want will be offered, don't put yourself in a comprimising situation. It's not necessary, and not wise.
Be safe, and drop me a line if you will be @ Red Rocks.
Peace

One more word of warning: There are rip-off artists at shows that'll sell sheets of paper. Paper only no 'cid. One bastard got me for $80 bucks once.
On a more cheerful note, at this show a cop tried to bust some guys in a VW. The guy rolled the window up on his arm and took him for a little ride. They took his sidearm and badge. Kinda sad though because the cops went on a rampage thru shakedown street.

Yes, absolutely. If you are just buying a small personal stash, it's not a hugh worry. But if you want quantity, or they start trying to get you to buy more than you want be VERY careful. It's a tough call. You have to trust your instincts. If something seems even the slightest bit off, bolt. There are way to many good people out there to mess around with anything suspicious.
Like I said before, hang out with someone for awhile. Once you're comfortable start asking. If they can't they probably know someone who can. Don't be too eager. If it seems a little too good to be true or if something seems off... it probably is.

Only 18 arrests at Bonnaroo. Not bad for 70,000 people. They also commented on the lack of trash on the ground after the show. Way to go clean up crew and everybody who took the time to throw there trash away and not on the ground.
There will be a lot more heat around the other Dead shows and a lot more people busted since they'll be in babylon. So be careful folks.

In the belly of the beast. Cities,non-private property such as stadiums,amphitheaters and venues were the cops and feds can rome freelly.

Well the PNC show last night was great but as far as security goes I wouldn't exactly call it lax, never put down your guard but it was certainly not heavy! No busts, only some minor hassles for people taking up valuable parking space with their setups! (There was lots of room on the grass though). So be safe my brothers and sisters and don't sweat too much!

it should be pretty lax where i'm going too.
the ampitheater is on the campus of a oakland university and the last time i went there for a jethro tull show there was one cop and people we blatantly smoking pot 15 feet away from him in plain site.
