2/5 idk_avery 1 year ago on Google
Came
for
the
Waterparks
in-store.
The
band
was
great
and
super
sweet,
but
the
store
organization
itself
left
most
of
the
attendees
less
than
thrilled.
Instore
aside,
the
store
seemed
overpriced
in
some
areas
but
had
a
good
selection.
Now...
The
layout
of
the
store
means
the
tiny
stage
is
perpendicular
to
the
big
rows
of
vinyls,
so
each
row
can
fit
about
three
people
wide.
Instead
of
filling
the
queued
attendees
in
horizontally,
they
put
us
all
in
one
section
at
a
time,
meaning
those
of
us
who
were
waiting
outside
for
7+
hours
were
in
the
back
of
a
section
while
those
who
were
several
switchbacks
(and
hours)
behind
us
in
line
were
at
the
front
when
a
new
section
was
started.
When
people
who
were
there
longer
asked
if
they
could
go
to
the
less-filled
section
before
more
people
came
in,
we
were
rudely
told
no
and
not
given
any
more
explanation.
The
meet
and
greet
itself
was
super
rushed.
Maybe
30
seconds,
and
the
staff
was
unpleasant
during
that
too.
Even
the
band
seemed
uncomfortable
and
caught
off
guard
when
THEY
were
in
the
middle
of
talking
to
people
and
people
were
getting
yelled
at
to
move
on.
They
also
did
not
let
people
have
their
phones
out
in
the
store?
They
said
they'd
take
them
from
you.
There
was
no
real
explanation
why.
You
can't
say
it's
because
of
time
or
because
of
your
ReAl
pRoFeSSioNal
PhoTOgRapHeR...
that's
bullshi*t.
It
takes
NO
additional
time
or
effort
to
let
others
in
your
group
record
your
interaction
from
the
side
while
the
band
and
store
does
their
thing.
No
one
in
that
store
was
on
the
same
page.
For
example,
we
were
initially
told
we'd
be
getting
our
stuff
signed.
Then
later
that
was
changed.
(But
oh
wait...
they
had
no
problem
later
putting
up
signed
items
for
sale
on
their
website
with
the
purchase
of
more
CDs/vinyls.
That's
gross.)
They
barely
told
people
what
was
going
on.
Some
employees
were
great...
idk
their
names
but
big
cashier
dude
with
the
long-ish
white
beard
and
the
younger
tall
blond
guy
were
nice
and
helpful.)
The
other
guy
(not
sure
about
his
name.
he
was
older
and
had
about
shoulder-length
hair)
really
rubbed
us
the
wrong
way
and
was
rude
and
arrogant.
He
also
had
no
qualms
complaining
and
repeatedly
making
comments
about
the
band
being
late,
which
is
understandably
frustrating
on
his
end,
but
also
unprofessional
and
makes
things
awkward.
In
the
grand
scheme
of
things,
it
didn't
even
start
too
much
later
than
it
was
supposed
to,
so
repeated
digs
as
the
event
progressed
were
unwarranted.
I'd
give
three
stars
due
to
still
being
excited
and
grateful
to
meet
some
of
my
favorite
people,
but
the
responses
here
from
the
owner
to
others
who
also
expressed
genuine
concerns
don't
help
their
case
and
made
me
choose
two
stars.
Just
saying:
-
it's
not
quite
a
"free
concert"
when
you
have
to
buy
the
album,
which
I
can
get
for
way
cheaper
at
Target
or
something,
and
then
also
pay
an
additional
fee
on
top
of
that.
The
"free
concert"
wasn't
that
far
off
from
the
price
of
a
ticket
to
their
actual
show.
-300
people?
Lmao
I
was
told
at
the
event
there
were
about
200
wristbands
sold
because
the
fire
marshal
limits
the
building
to
216
people.
I
love
Parx,
but
after
driving
3.5
hours
to
come
here
specifically
even
though
there
was
a
location
closer
to
me,
only
for
us
attendees
to
be
met
with
all
this,
I'm
in
no
rush
to
attend
another
instore
run
by
this
place.
