Clearly Midnight Oil isn't playing a 6 hour show (!) for everyone.  I 
expect that the amusement park, with its rides, will be open to the contest 
winners, from KFOG and sister stations.  Probably only the KFOG winners 
will have the ability to get into the theater within the park to see the 
"Private Concert" with the Oils, and they won't "have" to do that to enjoy 
the rest of the park; or maybe everyone, including winners from other 
stations, will be able to see the Oils too.  Either way, I just hope a good 
number of Oils fans make it.   For us, the Oils are the biggest part of the 
deal.
