What you can't bring to All Points West

Solar Pavillion 2 @ All Points West in Jersey City (drape)
Pavillion @ APW

This was the 4th time SITU has done this pavillion. The extraordinary thing is that the space is different each time becasue the parts can be joined in many ways. If there are rules for making it they're rules of thumb with a healthy does intuition for structure.
One of the other times they made that pavillion was at Citysol. Below is a list of things you can't bring to All Points West:

From the offical All Points Rule Book

NO Instruments
NO Knives / Weapons Etc.
NO Chains / Chain Wallets
NO Blankets
NO Outside Food & Bev
NO Camelpacks
NO Tents
NO Fireworks
NO Flags
NO Refunds Or Exchanges
NO Chairs
NO Video Cameras
NO Audio Recording Devices
NO Bota Bags
NO Professional Cameras
NO Stuffed Animals
NO Pets
NO Drugs & Drug Paraphernalia
Leave your stuffed animals at home. They will deal.

Are they allowing fun (despite of the horrible line-up?)

Posted by qweebaroo! | August 8, 2008 1:39 PM

why no blankets?

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2008 1:45 PM

Strangely not on the NO list, but in the FAQ:
Can I bring an umbrella to block the sun?

Sorry no, those block the view of other festival goers.

ENJOY THE RAIN!

@ ernesto, 1:49-

I have the same question, the same camera, and the same opinion of my shooting (not a pro). I've asked a few people and they've all said "why risk it?" So, alas, no pics of APW for me since no "pro" cameras are allowed.

Funny thing is they're letting in point-and-shoot cameras, but at the same time not allowing video cameras. Umm, hello...many point and shoots can now shoot video, some in HD and 16:9 format. Idiots.

definitely a huge change from traditional festivals where they used to give away free water. I wonder if you'll have access to any free water.

to clarify a d200 is a high-end semi pro camera, and because the lens is removable, APW will not let you in with it without a photo pass.
