Man I wish they would go back to Jones Beach. It's 10 minutes from me. Anyway. I'll probably do Randals and Watkins

I don't know if I'll be able to go, but if these rumors are true, I'm glad they're sticking with Watkins over Limestone. I've been up in that part of Maine recently for work and it's such a haul for people. I had a great time at the Great Went and Lemon Wheel, but I think it's best for the fans to have an easier access location like Watkins. I say that even though for me personally it would be a farther drive to Watkins.

I prefer Limestone because it weeds out the non fans... :)
And an airforce base works great for a concert... haha..

But Watkins is super cool... Last time was pretty epic...

How did VIP camping work out. I booked a hotel for those dates just in case. Refundable.

It was amazing...
Infrastructure is setup already... Bathrooms.. roads..
VIP had awesome showers and toilets...
Was RIGHT near the stage too..

I like to be in the middle of stuff...

Thanks Bob. I'm ok with it. Not everyone can be lucky enough to go. I'm just bummed at the markup. I would have paid good money for the show but the current prices are insulting.

Stub hub has a 3 day pass down to just under 1300, I think it was 437 per night. Face Value and all the fees were $66.00 and change. $397 was my total I think for 2 packages or there about. So with rough math makes that 6.50 times face per ticket. My bet is these sell for $250 a night for Friday and Sunday and $350 for Sat. Just my guess.

I really think these prices will come down once they realize people won't pay..
a couple weeks maybe...

Otherwise... Place will be empty... :)
