any chances at finding rooms at this point?

Look at the post right above your last one. I'm about to give up a room at Comfort Suites in Delavan. The room will sleep 6 - 2 queen beds and a pull out sofa. Would like to give it to a fellow Parrothead.

According to Alpine's facebook page, there will be the early tailgating upcharge again this year. (hidden in the picture comments)
And they DID get the second T on the sign. That T must have started the party without us - it is definitely staggering.... :wench:

Last year I believe it was noon, but I'm not 100% sure. Please post if you find out for sure though, as we are planning on it! My personal opinion is that if you purchased premiere parking, you shouldn't have to pay extra again, but that's why I'm not in charge!! :) lol

Last year we were the parking lot at noon, the people parked in front of us said they started letting people in the lot at 11 am. Might as well get there early enough to make the extra charge worthwhile^^^^ 2 weeks!!! woohoo!!!

hello,

After 15 years of seeing him all over Chicago (including a HOB Cub Charity show once), I am making it to Alpine. We may not get up there until 4-5pm. Does everyone recommend the $33 parking you can buy online or just wing it?

Two weeks from now, right around this time, everyone will be filtering out into the parking lot with smiles on their faces, basking in the afterglow. :D :D

I've never paid for the parking, but I always get there much earlier than that. I'm afraid I can't offer any advice.

Will any BNers attending Alpine Valley be at Camden on June 23?

We are in charge (and we use that term loosely since we all know he has a mind of his own) of Duckett in Camden and he is so looking forward to the next show on the 25th [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

Long range forecast so far is for mostly sunny, high of 71. It's too far out for this to be very accurate, but it doesn't look like HOT! HOT! HOT! is on the horizon. If we can have a day and evening without rain I'll be happy.

Brilliant! Are you hitting more shows during that time, or just enjoying time off at home?
