I think that another problem is that the Waccama Pottery area is a dead zone. Nobody wants to drive that far. If there was a place near broadway at the beach that would have helped alot!

Yeah, this does not hit family friendly stride. This is for the music enthusiast that sat up drunk/high one night and said to his buddy "WOuldn't it be AWESOME if there was a Led Zeppelin RIDE!!!" That guy has died and gone to heaven.The rest of the day was cool because I like beer and live music. A local festival would not be to terribly different from a day at the park.Also, a year pass is $150. The locals were not impressed.my $.02

The park unfortunately lacks a critical theme park component: rides. They only truly have 4 legitimate attractions, 2 of which were closed the day i attended. I think we can blame alot of things on the economy, but a sub par product will fail regardless.

Very true, David. One of the effects the crisis is having is that companies aren't able to borrow funds. According to the articles on Hard Rock Park's bankruptcy, they never really had enough money to advertise adequately. I'm sure this was another major factor.
