To be on site for the show, you'll still have to provide the DD Forms showing proof of insurance.
The Airshow Director is going to control the entire ramp that weekend, and it is unlikely the Aero Club manager is going to be able to influence it much.
Finally, there will be 100LL there (whether they have pumps or not), since the bulk of the performers and civilian statics are going to need it.
