I would be happy to. This is something that Disneyland needs to work on. Our first day was Sunday the 6th, we were let into the park before 8am, and held back by the ropes, so we waited by the frontierland entrance, because that was the straightest shot back to the fast pass distribution area. At rope drop a CM walked everyone that wanted a FP for F! back to the distribution area, and people lined up and got their FP very orderly and quickly. The FP said to return to the boat dock area at 8:00 for the 9:00 show. I'm not sure what time the FP ran out, but I know a couple hours later they were gone. Around 6ish or so we saw the CM setting up ropes for the evening show. I asked a couple of different CM about what time we should really show up, and got some slightly different answers, but one CM said 7:15 to 7:30 is when people start to show up, and if you are one of the first in you get sitting spots for the show, the rest of the spots are standing. So at 7:15 we showed up at the boat dock area, but they were not letting people into the actual waiting area yet. There were people waiting in a line outside of the dock area but against it, out of the way of the walkway, if that makes sense. I asked the CM that was obviously in charge where we should be going to stand. He said that he had been telling the people in that line every five minutes that it wasn't an official line, and they weren't going to get in first just because they were waiting there. He said there wasn't a line, that we should just come back later, like at 8:00, and it would open when he got word that it was time to start letting people in. Really. Nobody seemed to leave. So people just hung around the front of dock area waiting, more in the way than the people waiting in the line, who still seemed to want to take their chances in that line. So a little after 7:30 the CM just starts letting us in the dock waiting area, all the people milling about in the way get in first, and the people waiting in line get in after them. The people who show up at 8:00 like he was saying to, and like it says on the ticket, would have had a terrible spot. They held us in the dock waiting area all squished together until 8:00, then they let us into the viewing area. My family was able to get great seated viewing spots right in the front near the railing. But that was showing up at 7:15 for the 9:00 show and listening to the CM...when he seemed annoyed people were lining up we made sure we didn't line up. Which made no sense. But I wasn't running the show.
Sorry if that's sort of confusing...it was a little crazy!! Ask me if you want me to clarify something.
WOC I mentioned in a post above...we did yellow, came late, lucked out and saw it well. It wasn't a priority for us this trip. Luckily we are tall!
