I'm on the about the same schedule...can't wait for concert day! For the past week or so I've been out of the loop and tried to catch-up with the threads. Could someone please clarify the new-and-improved schedule.? My ship will be docking at the Holiday Inn Express Riverport around 6ish Wednesday. :pirate:

Wednesday pre-party: Sammy's (or VooDoo Lounge)?

Thursday parking and tailgate congregating: main lot, but where? (Is it likely we'll actually make it into this lot or should we secure another location where we can all party together? Are we collaborating on bringing supplies, etc.?)

Thursday after-party: VooDoo lounge?

Friday recovery: Cardinal game?

Is anyone hanging around through the weekend?

I'm sure many will be, but after a full day of work, flights, rental car, and hotel check in, we'll probably be fading away by then. ;)

The SLPHC tailgate sounds great! We will be there to help out the charities and I will have pina colada jello shots to share!

Question - we've taken the bus from Harrah's the last two concerts, so I was wondering - do you exit the parking lot after the concert through the same gate you arrived? I'd kind of like to park close to the exit if possible...

In so many words, yes, you exit the same way you came in. Are you staying at Harrah's Thursday night?

There is one other way to get out, but if you are staying at Harrah's then make a right out of the lot (which puts you on the main entrance/exit to the amphitheater), and just keep hanging rights until you get back to Harrah's......It's quite simple and very convenient actually.

I can tell what you are thinking though and yes getting out of the lot sometimes takes a while. Just remember to hang to the right when leaving, there will be cars lined up trying to make a left. Don't make the mistake of getting in that line.

Question. Ave. A1A and I will arrive Wednesday evening. Come Thursday, should we drive over the the venue so we can take tailgate chairs, coolers etc? Or is there going to be a group tailgate we can buy into?
I have seen Jimmy in The Lou quite a few times. Never stayed that close to the venue before. Always had to drive and the line of traffic out of there sucks. Might be quicker to walk to and from show from Harrahs, but then we are back taking and storing supplies.....
BTW, we are staying Friday and going to the Cards game too. If I remember correctly, our seats are field level, first base line.
Takin my time with my days.

Thanks for the tips! Yes, you read my mind - I want to get back to Harrah's for the After Party ASAP!

Old Trougher - last time we were there, 2 years ago, we noticed people walking back to Harrahs from the venue. They had to walk down a hill and over what looked like a drainage ditch then back up the hill. Not sure how tall the grass will be. Didn't look like to much fun, though....

Cool! Well, looks like we are driving then. But I too want to get back to hear PHINS pretty quickly. Do we have an "official" time for the lots opening? I've heard 3:00 I think... Hopefully sooner.

I'm telling my group 1:30, but that will never happen.....Maybe 2:00. As far as I know the official word is still opening at 3:00, but I've been to several of these things where they posted a time....they always open early, especially if a line starts to form (hint-hint).
