Re: Alpine Valley?
Be VERY careful about Volcano Express. From my one dealing with the people who run this "organization", they were VERY shady. Just use the whole Buyer Beware with them.
Did you hear the one about me being a punk?
Did you hear the one about me being a drunk?
Did you hear the one about me losing my nerve?
Or how I'm just another f**** sheep in the herd?
Did you hear the one about me giving a s***?
Cause if I ever did I don't remember it.

Re: Alpine Valley?
I concur.....but they are an option....if considering, would do no more than the bus ride only option... IMONighthawk wrote:Be VERY careful about Volcano Express. From my one dealing with the people who run this "organization", they were VERY shady. Just use the whole Buyer Beware with them.

As far as the "those with little faith" crud - I take it you weren't around in 2005. There is always that possibility lurking.
Good luck on tickets everyone.

Am thinking that was meant for me, second time you made mention of one of my posts. Apparently I have rubbed you wrong for some reason, not sure why, but I apoligize.
I remember 2005, and also wasn't involved with BN at that time. My sources are generally spot on and my phaith remains in the COBO.
Hope you make it and enjoy the show.

Re: Alpine Valley?
Sorry that you thought it was you - check above for who I quoted. The only other time I remember responding to one of your posts was about a week ago to say I was sorry, but I needed a concert. I was just tired of waiting and it had snowed that morning. That's enough to put anyone over the edge! You do have to admit, it was a hard wait this year.southofdisorder07 wrote:FinnsU.P. wrote:Finally!!!! Yes, it was a brutal wait this year.jonc wrote:Alpine show is official!!

Is it true that even on a bus/rv everyone has to have a ticket to get into the parking lot?

Possibly the Chicago Parrothead Club for potential bus from Chicago. Otherwise, try Hemingways.

Re: Alpine Valley?
I looked on the Livenation Website and saw that they list only two ticket prices for the Alpine show. One for the lawn and one for regular seating. I can't recall and was hoping someone knew if there was actually a middle price range? I saw that the Woodlands,TX show has three price ranges and couldn't recall if Alpine actually does. Thanks for the Help!

Re: Alpine Valley?
As far back as I can remember, Alpine has always had 2 price levels as you state. Lawn and Pavilion. The Pav at Alpine is pretty large so you can pay $156 and still end up back near the lawn.PackerPhan wrote:I looked on the Livenation Website and saw that they list only two ticket prices for the Alpine show.
