Got lawn but I am sitting Tx.

but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up,totally worn out, and proclaiming,
“Wow, what a ride!!!”

I had some really crzay confirmation words this time. The first two were totally unreadable. I also has hawaiian, pelagic, shanahan, camry, and a whole bunch of others i thought i would remember but don't

Depressing, our family dog of 16 years is put asleep yesterday and shut out of even a pair of pavillion seats today. An otherwise cheerful week has turned awfully dark within 24 hours.

If it makes you feel any better Mel row G is ACTUALLY the 14th row as AAA through GGG is at the very front! :wink:
Oh, & by the way.....if I decide to bail out on my 14th row seat for something hillside (cheaper) you'll be the first I'll contact.....if you're interested.

Hubby and I would go to PGH with our PH club but we're already booked to be someplace else on that date, so it looks like we're coming to Detroit, provided we can somehow score lawn seats without them costing a fortune. Got a friend who wants to tag along, too. Didn't even try Ticketbastard this morning, since I don't deal well with frustration before coffee.

fins and caly....much sympathy on the loss of your pets. :(

Fins....I ended up getting pretty decent tickets last year a couple of weeks before the concert. Good luck for the same results for you.

I could party at the park n' ride allll day...plus it has about the same number of bathrooms as the venue parking lot!
This is true :lol:
Does the bus have a bathroom yet?

And did you want to come to Indy with us? We'll either take over my brother's apartment (he lives with his gf) or go back to my parents' house.
lol, no bathroom. Nor will it due to space limitation.

I'm probably going to pass on Indy as I'm trying to hit new venues. Thanks for the invite though! :wink:

heh, just ordered stuph from Oriental trading company. Spent the afternoon "scaring" (I mean preparing) some virgins, and also put some thought into how to fab a pool on the double car hauler just because it would be fun......oh it's true what they say.....an idle mind is the devil's playground (especially mixed with another threat of snow and some tequila....) :)

ditto! i can't make the pittsburgh show either and am looking for information on the detroit venue. haven't bought my tix yet so...in attempting to save money for the labor day weekend show, how is the view and the sound from the lawn? i'd appreciate hotel and tailgating information. would love to meet you in detroit.
Landshark Girl wrote:My group and I usually go to Pittsburgh every year. But, my friend is pregnant and the Pittsburgh show is right around her due date. Soooo, we are probably going to do Detroit this year instead of Pittsburgh but I know nothing about the venue. What is it like? Any comparisons to other venues? Are there hotels/places to stay close to the venue? How early would those places need to be booked? What is the tailgating/parking lot experience like? Any other information you guys can give me would be great. Thanks and I hope to see some of you in Detroit in June!!!
