On the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is making music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

 

On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been
Seein' things that I may never see again
And I can't wait to get on the road again

 

On the road again
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turning our way and our way

 

Is on the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is making music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

 

On the road again

To the 700 of you going to LA Away this weekend, you know what to do.  

WE'RE GOING BACK TO CALI


Thank you for purchasing your LA Away Playoff Ticket(s) through the Emerald City Supporters. Here is everything you and 700 of your new best friends need to know for this match day:

 

Tickets:

You will find your ticket(s) for the match on Sunday, November 23, 2014 at StubHub Center in Carson, California attached to the email you should have received earlier this week. Print your ticket, bring it with you, and keep it with you for the entirety of the match. No, really.

 

Parking:

Park in Lot 16. You will need the visiting supporter parking pass attached to this email and the $15 parking fee. Parking opens at 10:30AM.

 

No-Host Tailgate:

We just couldn't pull it off this time. Besides, we're all stopping at Roscoe's before we get there, anyway. You know it. We know it. So get it to go and bring some beverages to share. We'll be in Lot 16 starting at around 11AM.

 

Stadium Entry:

This match is again expected to sell out. The Galaxy will again be triple-checking tickets and handing out wrist bands specifically to visiting supporters. We've increased the allotted time to get us all in to the section, and the Galaxy have also promised extra personnel to make the entry go faster. Only those holding Visiting Supporter Tickets will be allowed to enter with us. Everyone else will have to go through a different gate.

 

Gametime (Important Information):

Emerald City Supporters is a supporters group. That's important to remember. Our reason for being at the match is to spur our boys on toward victory; everything else is secondary.
 

  • Our sections will be all of Section 116, and the upper part of Section 117 (starting at row L). Our section will be treated as General Admission; we do not enforce seat assignments. Tifo, capos, the drum, and security will be in the front few rows. Everyone else is invited to stand where they feel most comfortable.
  • Participation is encouraged. We'll have song cards so you can sing, chant, and go mental right along with us. Don't worry if you don't know all the words, just follow along the best you can and your support will be felt!
  • There may be times where you can't see as well as you might like due to flags and tifo. We like to wave flags. Even during the run of play sometimes. We feel like it's an important part of showing the boys our support, and they are going to need every ounce of strength. If a flag is in your way, and you don't like it - please feel free to change seats. That's part of why we do GA, so you're not stuck in an uncomfortable spot.
  • FRIENDS OR FAMILY IN OTHER MLS TEAM GEAR OR COLORS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO STAND WITH US. If you or someone in your group is wearing colors of another MLS team, they will be asked to remove those items. If they refuse, we will try to have your group reseated. If StubHub Center cannot accommodate a reseating, then your group will be asked to leave.
  • Do not engage in any way with home fans. Security will keep them at bay; there's no need to engage in any wordplay, taunting, threats, etc. If you have an issue, notify ECS security or stadium staff.

We will be held in the section for 20 minutes. Security will escort the group back to Lot 16. If you choose not to stay with the group, you assume the risks of your own security.

Bad Religion - Los Angeles Is Burning

"When the hills of Los Angeles are burning
Palm trees are candles in the murder wind 
So many lives are on the breeze
Even the stars are ill at ease 
And Los Angeles is burning" - Bad Religion

 

We'll see you on the terraces.
