I finally got the chance to enter it the other day to see a great band at a festival to keep it operating.

Observe if no one ever bothers to visit the place, then search for openings and enter without leaving a trace of breaking in.<BR/><BR/>I've occupied places on rainy days and having night vision is a good skill to have.
