Right on! I am lucky enough to go with rookies every year as our crew expanded from 8 to 40 over the last 6 or so years. My favorite rookie still has to be my daughter. She will be experiencing her shows 3 & 4 at WPB this year!

I would love for us to be recognized as a SPAC, Alpine etc. I already know we are, but I want the rest to finally get it! DMB loves this venue. The people are effing fantastic. The music is insane. No tailgating I have ever been a part if is better than WPB. It is the only weekend all of my friends are in one place at one time. I do mean all of em too. From Rochester to Miami, it is our Mecca.

A) you have never eaten my food at SPAC. BBQ Shrimp, Veggie Quesadillas, Sausage Peppers n Onions, Burgers, Dogs, Brats, grilled corn on the cob, homemade Cole Slaw. Coolers filled with different Skip and Go naked recipes, beers and tequillas from around the US :)

I was wondering if the WPB vets could give this Chicago native, me obviously, some info just about the best way to go about the shows, planning, etc.? I'm seriously considering coming down with a handful of friends (via plane or rental car) and making a week-long vacation out of our stay and catching both nights. If we were to visit by plane, I'm not sure of the costs of a rental or the legallity (oldest of the group is 23) behind it, so a taking a bus of some sort might be ideal....is there such a thing that goes to/from Cruzan?

Just any sort of information would help me and making this decision easier. Thanks

Definitely stay at PGA for the show nights, it will be discounted and totally worth it. We havent arranged a bus in years past, but it is a possibility if there is enough interest. It also is Wicked early (yea I dropped it, but i'm from NE) to start planning, wait for dates and Ants may organize something again.

ahh... badass... can you hook me up with a wolfshirt? i'll wear it at the St. Pete gig and let you throw phones at me ;) :lol

I'll throw phones regardless, it's what I do! There may be a possibility of an Ants Wolf shirt re appearing, but I can neither confirm or deny those rumors, I will have to keep you posted. Feb. 27th is the date correct????

Here's you're plans so you can move on to bigger and better things:

1. Get tickets
2. Get flight
3. Book room at PGA with the rest of us when Jake gives the go ahead.
4. Pass time somehow until tour season
5. Pack, nothing warm at all, esp coming from NY, you will be sweating just standing there
6. Arrive ready to drink and make 23098280 new friends and reacquaint with old ones
7. Check-in, go to your room, make a drink and immediately go to the pool
8. Dance your face off tailgating before dancing your face off and losing your voice for N1
9. Stay up until the sun rises after partying at the PGA and having Jessie's famous Jello shots
10. Wake up slightly hungover and go right back to the pool for Mojito's and a group shot in the afternoon
11. Muster the strength and sobriety to get to tailgating
12. No words needed, N2
13. Another night of debauchery at the PGA, you might remember some of it, but most likely will not remember most of it, but don't worry someone will fill you in later
14. Get 2-3 hours of sleep before checking out
15. Farewell breakfast, tears, hugs, and plans for next year!

I hope that helps you out! :lol

Well most of the R&R is spent either by the pool before and after shows and tailgating (a lot of the PGA goers don't tailgate) but I sure as hell do. Walking into a venue soak and wet or walking out of a venue soaking wet is not fun.

What would Warren come out for? 4 nights of 1 song? The Danny Rhodes Incident, part 2. I mean I would take it in a heartbeat, but what if it's 4 nights and 4 different songs? Warren is amazing and can pull it off. I feel Cotrtez(duh), Watchtower, Jimi Thing and Gravedigger. The possibiliteis are endless. What if Matt Abts and Carter played together? What if the whole Mule sat in for A song or two a la Bela Fleck et all? This us unfair that I am this mind-fucked in January!! Hahahaha

Just booked my room. Stayed at the Doubletree Palm Beach Gardens down the road from PGA last year, went to the PGA pool and after party anyways. Realized I needed to stay the next time around. Can't wait!

Can someone recommend some hotels on the beach? Is it possible to get an affordable hotel that is an easy walk to the beach?

Thanks.

WPB is tres expensive. I always stay at the WPB Lakes La Quinta. Hop the backroads to amphitheater. 10 minute drive. The beach is the beach! Think $125 or more. If you want to drink from Solo cups used by the band onstage while playing Rock Band and being massaged by 97 Virgins whose fathers are Augusta National Members you may peek into The Breakers. If that's how you roll?

just booked my room from thursday on... can't wait. last year was incredible, but i didn't really party with yall as much as i should have. my girl and i sorta kept to ourselves. this year my friend summer and i are going to rock the hell out of the place. looking forward to seeing you all there. they lady i talked to said the rooms are going really fast (no big surprise there), so get on that shit. the days of having to book six months in advance are upon us.

WHAT?!?!? BOO!! :twak

On another note, just a heads up to you WPBers, rooms are booking fast the at the PGA I was told so if you want the rate there book your room this week! Don't worry about being charged if you are because they just need a CC to HOLD the room, your card won't be charged until you get there or you cancel with only 3 days out. GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT!! :bounce

:thumbsupThis. Gives you time to save up. :)

Here's you're plans so you can move on to bigger and better things:

1. Get tickets Check!
2. Get flight Check! (driving)
3. Book room at PGA with the rest of us when Jake gives the go ahead. Check!
4. Pass time somehow until tour seasonThis is the tough part!
5. Pack, nothing warm at all, esp coming from NY, you will be sweating just standing there
6. Arrive ready to drink and make 23098280 new friends and reacquaint with old ones
7. Check-in, go to your room, make a drink and immediately go to the pool
8. Dance your face off tailgating before dancing your face off and losing your voice for N1
9. Stay up until the sun rises after partying at the PGA and having Jessie's famous Jello shots
10. Wake up slightly hungover and go right back to the pool for Mojito's and a group shot in the afternoon
11. Muster the strength and sobriety to get to tailgating
12. No words needed, N2
13. Another night of debauchery at the PGA, you might remember some of it, but most likely will not remember most of it, but don't worry someone will fill you in later
14. Get 2-3 hours of sleep before checking out
15. Farewell breakfast, tears, hugs, and plans for next year!

I would like to explain the tax situation in Florida. We do not pay state tax. Tourists pay it when they visit here! Nicest roads in the lower 48. you can't escape it. I always Pricelined in Palm Beach Lakes. $60 a night for a nice room with pool. I have a kid so the PGA ain't for us. She already sees the heathens at the show

that's easily solved and i was a first timer last year. make friends, then you get a ride to the show and tailgate. i promise it's worth it. go in with no expectations and the memories you make in 48 hours really lasts you a long long time. you NEVER know who you meet and what will happen. that's your best bet. :monkey

They fucked up on the rate. It's not actually 99 they had some sort of computer error. We talked to the manager earlier and he said the rate is 139 plus fees and anyone who already booked will be getting bumped to that rate.

Here is the correct information. If you already booked at $99 rate, they will honor it. If you book from now on, you will be charged the $139 rate.
