I think it's lame they are playing Fenway

I'll pass on those prices. I've got requests in for Phish tickets, I'll do a DSO Hampton. Tedeschi Trucks in Meadowbrook and that's about it with having a one year old. I've got a room reserved at Jay for the Strangefolk shows too, but not sure we will go yet.

some odd venue choices for sure...2 nights at citifield? there's no way they sell that out...a monday night at shithole ampitheater in camden? fenway? if i was the wagering type i'd bet they'll be tickets on the ground at many of these shows...maybe why they are doing radio spots for this tour...certainly not sweating getting tickets the moment they go on sale.

Which Phish dates did you request? Great Woods? Hartford? I'm going with Hartford and Syracuse and possibly adding a night at SPAC. Like you said, having a one year old child makes the scheduling process that much more difficult.

Regardless of the music I might see this summer, hearing a certain band live again in late March up in Portland. ME will likely be the musical highlight of the year for me.

 

[deadheadskier]

Portland and Mansfield. Portland is the one I'm most hoping for. I can schedule work in town day of and don't have to deal with nightmare parking in Mansfield.


And yes, March is definitely the highlight of the year. Potential preview for late March coming up on the 6th. Not sure if it's full band yet or not.

I'm simply not paying to see dead and company. Went in October and was wildly disappointed. I'll only go if I go for free. Phish on the other hand I'm happy to pay for.

spac?

I am seeing Phil on Thursday.
So stoked. Let me know if you get a tix.

I just can't get into seeing Dead & Co. at these large stadium venues. I passed on tix. I rarely went to the large venue shows (other than a SPAC show or 2) when Jerry was alive for $25 let alone $100 now without him. If they were to play a smaller venue...even an arena, I'd consider.

spac?

You betcha. Hotel was booked once the rumors came out. Hey I just remembered! Did you change your phone number? Had an extra for MSG on 1/2 and didn't hear back. Out of character for you.

 

[deadheadskier]

I had considered SPAC. I love the Saratoga Phish experience. Get a hotel room walking distance from venue. Hang by the pool all day prior to the show.

My issue is you can't request Pavs. I've done the lawn too many times there and have no interest in the experience again. Don't get me wrong, I always have a good time with friends and most SPAC shows I have seen have ranged from good to excellent. That said, the poor sight lines and bad sound on that lawn isn't worth it for me anymore. They should rebuild a new nicer shed type facility and retire the current one.

I remember getting the text... I slept most of January 2nd...
Was a tough run partying-wise.. Didn't sleep all that much so many things going on after show..


COOL! I put in for tickets - I'll get lawns.. Which I will then use to entice someone to drive me... Or get someone I really want to a show.
I have a friend who's been a SPAC member for decades.. Always puts us in the pavilion.. hell yeah!!!
Last time I got 2 nights pit..

So I decided to get am Amex Card so I could do the Pre sale for Dead and Co for Fenway. I got Friday and Sat. Nothing Special. Going to The Sat @ city Field too. Be nice to see ole tour buddies.

Heard JRAD CRUSHED in Burlington....

Love me some JRAD...

Pretty incredible lineup. I can't believe Phish is doing this instead of their own festival. I suppose it is much easier and the payday is likely very good.

Watched Dead and Company on Fallon last night...
And the other clips...

Reaffirmed me decision to not see them and spend my $ elsewhere... just not into Mayers voice and playing style...

Staying with friends in CT - and saw 3 commercials for Dead and Comp at Citi field.. Seemed like a lot...

 

[deadheadskier]

I see D&C ads online frequently. Also radio ads. I recorded the Fallon performance and plan on checking it out after work tonight.
