In 2001 we got this package...it was awesome, hung out and watched the Mariners/Indians game in the bar with Butch and met Fonzi after one of the shows in the bar.

The band stayed at the Best Western hotel? I guess they have to crash somewhere.

I was wondering the same thing...doesn't make much sense.

[Duckyguy]

That is how they can offer packages to the warehouse. They get the whole hotel.

Before the official concert dates were announced, there was a "predicted list" posted. I checked that hotel for Labor Day weekend, and it was already totally booked so i figured the band had gotten it alreayd and the Gorge shows were definitely Labor Day weekend, so I reserved another hotel in Moses Lake. It was alot easier to find a place if you look before the shows were officially announced.

EDIT: I know when I was int he bar watchign the game, some people said Boyd was out at the pool. Saw Roi in the bar when I was talking with Fonzi. It was right after the twins were born, I don't remember anyone ever saying they saw Dave.

well, if it is the only full service hotel within a decent distance of the venue, then it makes perfect sense.

but who really knows.

The hotel was full of Warehouse people...I am sure there are atleast some ants that got in on this besides me and Sarah (gvn2fly).

Did anyone organize a shuttle of some sort to and from the shows and hotel that year? It'd be cool to have something like that this year. No need to worry about drinking and driving...

Umm not that I know of. Maybe though? Sarah and I just drove to the shows.

Well, someone ought to do it. I'm sure there would be plenty of people interested. I'm going to send the WH an e-mail.

Are people doing this, or camping. Why?

I'm just sticking with the first hotel I reserved. It is cheaper...and I am poor. :( :lol

:thumbsup
I'm at the Super 8, from what I hear it is across the street from the Best Western. $360 is a pretty big chunk of change considering my total is under $200 now.. :confused: I think the WH is preying on all the people who missed the boat and have no reservations.

[domi00360]

Yeah, that's a lot of money. I'm just trying to figure out if I should stay at the hotel, or camp. We're coming from MN, so I don't want to pack all my camping gear, ya know?

[maker75]

Hey, how are you? I am going to the Gorge this year, but where is the package on the Warehouse? I do not see it posted anywhere.

[domi00360]

It's emailed to your address. If that's what you're talking about
