yeah, no question about that. $220 bucks for the all encompassing tickets is absurd. live music - especially jam - should be all about the tunes, not about the flow. it’s not even that the musicians’ priorities are fucked, it’s the priorities of those organizing this.
regardless, the bottom line is it shouldn’t be too risky to smoke and/or drink (if underage) if you’re smart about it. don’t talk about it loudly and frolic around waving spliffs in the air.
