:bounce

[texasdmblvr]

i was just wondering if anyone else got their stuff yet from cafepress.com?

[ggies]

well, I just ordered mine!

should get it by Friday.

[eric_dmbfan03]

What did you get?

[jasoncrwly]

I just got my shirt!

[eric_dmbfan03]

Awesome. How does it look?

[chiznaz]

hey eric. I'm going to be missing Fish Camp to go to the Houston shows. You think it's worth it?

[texasdmblvr]

fish camp ~eek~
ya'll make me feel SOOOOOOOO old :rolleyes:

[Fendo]

So where are everyone's seats (those who got WH tickets that is)?

Woodlands 1 - Right, Row C
Woodlands 2 - Left, Row Y

Not spectacular (depending how close to the aisle the Row C seat is), but definitely not bad.

[BergTexas]

Warehouse has just released seat locations.

Please post on the DMB Texas message board where you will be sitting each of the Texas shows. I am going to try to compile (and organize) a list with where everyone will be sitting.

Thanks,

Berg

[eric_dmbfan03]

hey eric. I'm going to be missing Fish Camp to go to the Houston shows. You think it's worth it?
Well I didn't go. My friends who did thought it was fun but they already knew a lot of the stuff that they teach you. One of my other friends was kicked out because she, well, slept with one of the camp leaders. But I would defintely skip Fish Camp and go to Dave Matthews Band. I'll teach you the yells at The Woodlands.

Crazy Aggies.

[eric_dmbfan03]

:lol Well, Fish Camp is basically a brain washing seminar. Like I said, I already knew many, if not all, of the Aggie Traditions because my dad graduated from there and I lived in College Station during my high school years.

[jasoncrwly]

:lol Well, Fish Camp is basically a brain washing seminar.

:eek: Do my eyes decieve me? Did an Aggie really say that?

[innertube]

yeah, same here. I like my school but that doesn't mean I'm one those guys that ruins a good sporting event by constantly yelling at the other team. Let's face it, sporting events wouldn't be as much fun without a little rivalry.

What year member are you? Just curious, I've never gotten that close and I'm a fourth year member. I know a first year member who got orchestra at The Woodlands.

[txdancingbillie]

I'm a fifth year now, but these are from a sixth year I traded requests with. The seats that my fifth year account got were ORCH. 1, ROW H, which my cousin and her boyfriend will be using, still pretty fucking good!
My fifth year account only got LEFT, ROW T @ night 1 for woodlands, and declined for night 2.

CAN'T WAIT UNTIL AUGUST!!!!!

Will

[eric_dmbfan03]

That's really cool.

[chiznaz]

Oh and the Lakers are going to own in the playoffs.
oh dear god. you lost some major cool points there. you very lucky you're an aggie right now :lol

[eric_dmbfan03]

:lol I've been a Laker all of my life.

[texasdmblvr]

hey eric- how do you do this fine evening??? i didn't look back ~ did you get good seats???

[eric_dmbfan03]

Seats in the sig. Sorry the response is so late, I've been suffering from double overtime stress. The Stars lost in double OT and the Lakers won in double OT after two amazing three pointers by Kobe.

WTF? I first year member got orchestra seating at the Woodlands? Thats just not right. I have been a member since 99 and I got Right row N for night 1 and Left W for night 2.

[eric_dmbfan03]

Yeah, tell me about it. I'm pretty pissed off at him right now. I've never ever gotten that close and this year's the closest I've been.

[mantra4]

closest i've been is row 9 for the allstate d+f show, but i got those from a 6 year member... closest warehouse has given me is 105 row k for selma this year (i'm a 2nd year member)

[eric_dmbfan03]

Hey have you gotten the Jason Mraz undedited Austin City Limits DVD?

[jasoncrwly]

I entered to win a free one from the site. Can't download, no burner.

[eric_dmbfan03]

I was there, I was the one who taped the show (http://db.etree.org/shninfo_detail.php?shnid=20329). Hey pichtd if you don't win I can hook you up with a copy since you live in College Station.

Eric, that would kick ass. I'm becoming a huge Mraz fan, can't wait to see him open at the Gorge.

Will you be in C.S. for the summer?

[eric_dmbfan03]

Yessir.

[AU1880]

OK seriously....how bad is row KK at Woodlands?

[eric_dmbfan03]

Not bad at all. You'll be outside of the covered area, but you'll only be one row back. The uncovered reserved area is obvioulsy above the covered sections. Should be good seats.

http://www.followdmb.com/images/cmwp.jpg

[mantra4]

not really a bad seat in the house at the woodlands... i believe i was in ss right last year... as it stands right now i've got mm center for night 1, and bb right for night 2... but both of those will change

*edit* in '02 for night 2 i was 13th row :drools:

[texasdmblvr]

OK seriously....how bad is row KK at Woodlands?

i just had row PP :haha last weekend at the buzzfest... they weren't all that bad~ but you're gonna be one hot sonofagun until the sun goes down.. but i could see okay and i'm totally blind

[texasdmblvr]

HOTEL REVIEW:

i stayed at the Woodlands Marriott Waterway that you guys have been discussing~ VERY NICE
HIGHLY RECOMMEND that ya'll try to snag a room here. the a/c skytunnel goes DIRECTLY from the hotel to the pavillion's own private entrance area. That alone is worth alot to not have to fight parking.... there will be none this year at the mall anyway.
The woodlands (people) are trying to make this area resemble San Anonio's Riverwalk. It is still under construction right now but they are getting close and should be done by August.
anyway~ very very very nice hotel- i just booked a room last week, so i know there are some available.. most of the bands from buzzfest stayed there also. :D

[chiznaz]

OK seriously....how bad is row KK at Woodlands?

I was in KK last year. As long as you don't have a giant in front of you, you have a unobstructed view to the stage. I was trying to score row JJ from ticketmaster, but had no luck. The seats aren't bad at all.

[angelces]

may I just mention that I have freakin bombing seats for night one, and ok seats for night two. see you all there. :D

[AU1880]

hey thanks for the feedback y'all!! the KK seats are for my parents, and i felt bad taking the row V seats....but it's fine, they'll be drinking a lot anyway and prob won't notice

[txdancingbillie]

may I just mention that I have freakin bombing seats for night one, and ok seats for night two. see you all there. :D

Just thought I'd mention that I've got pretty fucking killer seats for both nights too!

Night 1~ LEFT, ROW D
Night 2~ LEFT, ROW G

*on a side note, for the Selma show I'm 6th row center!!!

WOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

is it August yet?
Will

[BergTexas]

If anybody has any decent Woodland Night 2 tickets send me an AIM or email.

Thanks - Berg

actually night two i'm in the last row of reserved... looks like I'm gonna need to find a new set of tickets somewhere around.

What's the going rate for a room there?

[pichtd]

What's the going rate for a room there?
I got mine for $94, but I believe they are sold out.

[texasdmblvr]

I got mine for $94, but I believe they are sold out.


that was what i paid i think :rolleyes:
sorry if they are sold out... if you need more hotel names and numbers, find me, i'll look up the close ones for you.
~i've mentioned b/4 at work-i'm pretty much across the freeway from the pavillion

[Cordevil95]

I went to a few websites and they say they still have rooms available... i would find it hard to believe they would be sold out this far in advance for that weekend, that place looks pretty big. Anyways, the few sites i went to listed it at 105 a night

[texasdmblvr]

any of the rooms close around here are going to run about that... give or take $10-15 bucks... i'm telling ya'll~it is worth it... the a/c skytunnel and the not waiting at the gates for an hour in the hot august heat is worth every penny-
not to mention the hotel was VERY VERY nice :D AND I'LL BE THERE :p

[innertube]

they still have rooms at the marriott, but they are $109 now, but i booked it anyway. i have been staying at the courtyard by marriott, which is nice but i think those rooms are like $90 or $99 and you have to drive a small way, less than a mile and park in the mall. but it sounds like maybe the mall parking is going to be a thing of the past............

have fun and good luck....

courtyard is good.. NO parking at the mall this year. BUT, last weekend, they were allowing BUZZFEST people to valet park at the hotel i was staying at (marriot waterway) not sure how much they were charging but it was available to the public~ just a thought/suggestion

GOOD TIMES IN TEXAS :D

[eric_dmbfan03]

How come no more mall parking?

[chiznaz]

yeah i don;t see how that marriot can be sold out. It's a huge hotel/convention center. I got my reservations there last month at $99, but the price will probably go up. Last year I booked it kinda late and it ran me 150. That sucked.... but it was worth it.

[Cordevil95]

OK.. I think I'm gonna book a room at the Marriott place :D

[mantra4]

hey all... if anyone has any extra pairs for either night at the woodlands let me know

[Cordevil95]

OK, i just reserved a room at the Marriott Waterway... Aug 20-22. See you all there!!

[AU1880]

is there a Ritz-Carlton near the Woodlands?

[Cordevil95]

BETH...

For the saturday pre show thing at Rookies, do you have to be 21 to go?? If it was mentioned in this thread before i appologize, i don't remember seeing it. :)

[Fendo]

is there a Ritz-Carlton near the Woodlands?

Uh.... no. I don't think there are even any in the whole state of Texas.

[Fendo]

How come no more mall parking?

And how the hell are they going to enforce it? Close down the mall parking lot for everyone, even shoppers??

[AU1880]

Uh.... no. I don't think there are even any in the whole state of Texas.
You're right I just checked. I have to find another place I guess.

[texasdmblvr]

You're right I just checked. I have to find another place I guess. :thumbsup stay at the marriott

Rookies: no you don't have to be 21.. they will stamp you at the door
Mall Parking: trust me~ they will know (and tow)

anything I missed?

[eric_dmbfan03]

Still trying to figure out why no more mall parking?

[texasdmblvr]

i guess you'll just have to see it when you get there. they have changed that area so much since last year (around the mall/commons area) they keep the lots full with customers ALL the time. after hours, they will know who's at the concert... the woodlands turns off the lights and locks all the doors at 9PM sharp 7 days a week :rolleyes:

[Fendo]

No mall parking sucks. Over the last 2-3 years I had finally figured out a good system to be able to get out of there and onto I-45 fast.

[mantra4]

last year i ran over a beer bottle in the mall parking lot and got a flat tire

[eric_dmbfan03]

Well I don't know how they could give me a ticket if I'm parking in a parking lot. The only way they can do that, I think, is if they have a sign that explicitly says "Parking for mall customers only." Then I may have to go make a shopping trip prior to the shows, :lol.

got your pm... thanks, my night one seats are one row behind those so i think i'll pass :)

AND THEY DO~ EVERYWHERE :rolleyes:

[eric_dmbfan03]

Really? I guess I never saw them.

[texasdmblvr]

they are new.. i'm telling you if you haven't been here in a few months, the whole mall area/commons has changed. i live/work RIGHT here and i still am like, damn, when did they build that, where'd that come from..
Great restaraunts everywhere.. haven't been to any of them

so, the construction is crazy and signs everywhere.. no pavillion parking.. mall parking only

i'm going to the mall later today (surprise..) so i'll verify my stories :rolleyes: and get back to ya

[eric_dmbfan03]

Thanks Beth.

[texasdmblvr]

okay- maybe i'm not going to the mall
-trying to bathe the dogs and this started :eek:
i'm stuck with 2 freaking labradors that won't go back to the kennel now....waiting for the rain to stop.....
*has nothing to do with tx dmb shows....SORRY

[texasdmblvr]

try this again-my pic won't attatch... whats up with that?

[eric_dmbfan03]

What are you talking about? :lol

[texasdmblvr]

rain- it wasn't that exciting~never freaking mind... :rolleyes:
:lol no- i didn't make it to the mall.....

[marcdmbfan]

For those of you trying to book a room at the Waterway... I booked my room for the Marriott Waterway via Priceline.com. Had to pay $75/night but that's less than most, even with the fees they charge. It's the only 3 star in the woodlands area so it's the only hotel you can get through priceline.com. You just have to keep adding free rebid zones to get the waterway. If you don't know what this means email me or just ask and I'll explain.

Anyone going to the Spurs vs. Lakers games? I was able to get a pair for both of the next 2 home games at SBC so I'm pumped. GO SPURS GO!

[mantra4]

[eric_dmbfan03]

Yeah I had tickets to game six of the Lakers/Rockets series but looks like that's probably not going to happen. So I'm going to get Spurs/Lakers tickets. I finally get to see them. It's going to be a good series, but my Lakers will overcome last year's champions.

[eric_dmbfan03]

Hello all. Since today is May 04, I figured that I'd offer up a DVD B&P for the 5/4 show at The Woodlands two years ago. Great set, DVD's a little choppy at some points but pretty good overall. Some of the highlights include the Rapunzel crazy-Dave-dance, LIOG closer, BEF -> Bartender. Here's the DVD's page on DVD Central.

http://pushkar.dmbwallpaper.net/dvd/dvd/050402.html

I'll take three email addresses, just post them up. You'll need two DVD-Rs.

[innertube]

i would really like to get that dvd.....please let me know what to do
jnelken@cp-tel.net

thanks

[eric_dmbfan03]

Well I just got the email from the WH saying my tickets are going on Will Call.

[ddale]

Well I just got the email from the WH saying my tickets are going on Will Call.
Where are your seats?? Did you request a lot of shows?

[ddale]

Hello all. Since today is May 04, I figured that I'd offer up a DVD B&P for the 5/4 show at The Woodlands two years ago.
Nice offer. Someone was supposed to be converting 5.12.01 into DVD as well, but I haven't heard anything on that one in a while. I have the VHS and have had my fingers crossed for the DVD. The 5.4 is OK, but it seemed like the person taping kept forgetting they were holding a camera. :)

[eric_dmbfan03]

Seats are in the sig and I got three shows through them.

[texasdmblvr]

~on cafepress.com - did you search for dmbtexas? they aren't listed if you just search for dmb... hell, maybe it was texasdmb... try both, if you still can't get there find eric here on this thread somewhere... he knows everything regarding the shop... he set it up :D

Well, I tried every search, including your suggestions. No luck, so I emailed eric. Where is Magnolia? I'm about 30 miles north of San Antonio (I know there's a spring branch in the houston area too...but not this one) LOL! Thanks for the help.
Penny

[eric_dmbfan03]

Here's what's up with the CafePress shop:

Steve alerted me about the problem about a week ago. I emailed the people at CafePress.com, they said that it only takes them one business day to respond to a problem, well that's a bold face lie. When I log in to edit the shop, all of the items are there but there listed as "Pending." According to them, pending means if there are no images placed on the shirt or whatever. But I've already sold over $400 worth of stuff (I'd say $100 to $150 is Beth :lol) so it's impossible for it to be pending. I've sent three emails to them and they've yet to respond. I'm thinking that there must have been a problem with the Firedancer images or the use of "Dave Matthews Band" on the shirts. But there are tons of DMB related stores on there so I don't know why there's a problem with mine, especially since there's no profit whatsoever being made.

If anything, I'll just make another store and tell you all so that you can get your orders in quick. Keep checking the store in the meantime.

http://www.cafepress.com/dmbtexas

[cpnowak]

Thanks For the info!

*let me know if i can help with the store thing.. set up new one in my name etc >> ?

[eric_dmbfan03]

Ah crap completely forgot about that design. Give me some stuff you want incorporated into it. Firedancer, lyrics, whatever.

[texasdmblvr]

Ah crap completely forgot about that design. Give me some stuff you want incorporated into it. Firedancer, lyrics, whatever.
firedancer, "good times", state of texas symbol, ants and more ants, lyrics, ummmmm, i've got daves sig on my guitar (??) whatcha think??

[texasdmblvr]

[eric_dmbfan03]

State of Texas symbol? Like the star?

[texasdmblvr]

oh yeah.............and a star ~ i'm real big on stars
but i meant the shape of the state of texas

[jasoncrwly]

Hi all... it's been a while. I've been busy with finals and what not. Wow, there's been a lot going on! That's kinda odd about the shirts. I hope it's not the dancing men that's causing a problem. If it is, I'm sorry. So Eric, are you still taking B&P's for the dvd? That'd be sweet, I've yet to see a traded dvd.

Jason jasoncrwly@yahoo.com

[texasdmblvr]

yeah eric and I DID mention that i wanted it to be small- right?
:D :haha

[eric_dmbfan03]

So let me get this straight, you want:

Outline of the state of Texas
Star
Firedancer
the words "good times"
random lyrics
Ants
Dave's signature on a guitar

And you want this small?!

:lol :lol I'll do what I can.

HEY ERIC~ now how are you doing??? i heard terrible things regarding bcs on the news about 3AM

you okay???

[ggies]

hey all,

ok, so i am suppose to come back down to College Station today to get my furniture, do u think highway 6 will be open?

And, I got one of the tour shirts, but i heard you cant order anymore., my friend wanted to get one.

cheers,

Tyler

[eric_dmbfan03]

Everything's fine. There are a few FM roads that are still closed but in the city everything's fine. Highway 6 is open as far as I know.

I think I might open up another store and then everyone an order the shirts again. But it won't be until it gets closer to the shows.

[texasdmblvr]

eric-
i sent you a pm
i'm in caldwell for the weekend
find me :)

[eric_dmbfan03]

Check your PM.

[texasdmblvr]

Check your PM.

very kewl- maybe maybe...we'll see

hey- i forget everyday~
the damn woodlands mall has posted big signs outside EVERY entrance all the way around the mall that simply say "NO CONCERT PARKING AT MALL" or something very similar... they have kept them up everyday for the past month so it's not like they just put them out for a special concert or anything... everyday all day long..

[mantra4]

that sucks some major hairy wart infested ass. guess i'll buy the ticketmaster parking. one year one of my friends did that and it took us maybe 10 minutes to get out of the area... have they built more garages or something? cause other than the mall / hotel / business lots there isn't a whole lot else is there?

[eric_dmbfan03]

Chris have you gotten my PMs?

[mantra4]

yeah... i got that, completely forgot to respond. my bad... i'll tell you what. if you haven't sent your discs yet just wait. i'm moving next week to a new place. once i get moved in i'll be more than happy to burn you whatever dvd's you want. here's my list of dmb dvd's.

*edit* and like i said... you can get how ever much of that you want / don't have... that's basically how i accumulated about 75% of it. i was asking for help in burning dvd's and crumbo offered to help me out and teach me what to do. he has hooked me up with an ungodly amount of shows. when i met him at allstate he had burnt 20 discs worth of shit for me and i just gave him 20 blanks.

[texasdmblvr]

[mantra4]

ok so i don't have crap to trade, but i want a dvd ....

you got my hopes up about trey... then i was bummed that acl was the same weekend as the texas shows. then i remembered that its been in september every year.

[Santa Claus]

i'll be at 8.20 lawn!!! i missed 03 for some dumbass reason, but this will be my 4th year at teh woodlands for dave...great venue

[Santa Claus]

hey eric. I'm going to be missing Fish Camp to go to the Houston shows. You think it's worth it?

quick note about fish camp; i went to a&m in 99/00 and i went to fish camp. it was one of the best decisons ive ever made. i still talk to people i met at fish camp. that's a tough one, though- dmb, or fish camp. maybe you could try and get your session changed. i doubt it, though cause they're pretty serious about not changing your session. who knows?

FARMERS FIGHT!!!!! WHOOP!!!!!!!!!!

roo

[eric_dmbfan03]

It's a toss up as to whether someone will have fun at Fish Camp or not, I mean some friends of mine loved that they went and others thought it was incredibly dull. It also could be because my friends and I lived in College Station prior to college so we had been immersed in "the spirit of Aggieland" while we were in high school. I'd definitely choose DMB over Fish Camp, though.

South Austin Jug Band is way cool. I didn't see them at ACL but I did see them at College Station's Northgate Music Festival.

A semi-lineup has been announced at UT's "Hornfans.com." Here are some of the links that confirm artists' bid into the third annual ACL Music Fest:

I went last year, but can't make it this year due to a friend's wedding. Last year was fun, although the crowd on Sunday was absolutely insane. You can't beat the ticket price, though. $70 for 3 days of music.

I was in Austin for RRFB on Friday night. Here are some pics (http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/dondale@sbcglobal.net/album?.dir=/e005&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/dondale@sbcglobal.net) if anyone cares.

[eric_dmbfan03]

Awesome! I was there too, I talked to the person who taped it and he said it came out really well.

[emjohn]

Awesome! I was there too, I talked to the person who taped it and he said it came out really well.Audio? We saw a couple of taping rigs by th esoundboard, and one guy that was shooting video over to the side.

Good show. Bigger storm afterwards. :-)

ACLF lineup looks pretty money. Very tempting...

Evan

[eric_dmbfan03]

Yeah, audio, I'm not sure about the video. RR&TFB prohibits it so I'm not sure how he got around it.

I had to drive back to College Station through that storm. As soon as I got on 290 past Elgin it was like someone threw a switch and it just poured the entire way back.

[texasdmblvr]

just checking in to say
HOWDY ya'll

I had to drive back to College Station through that storm. As soon as I got on 290 past Elgin it was like someone threw a switch and it just poured the entire way back.The guy had a nice set up. He was on the the stairs going up to the "VIP" section. Pretty nice camera, tall stand with a mic and everything. It would be sweet if that thing gets out. I meant to ask him about it, but never made it over there.

That storm was awful. We were on 6th street when it hit.... had to walk/run/jog back to Stubbs in that mess. Not fun.

9 more days til StL! :thumbsup

The power went out on MLK and down to San Jacinto for about ten minutes. It was pretty crazy.

crossroads festival was great!!!!

first time to see robert randolph....his set was great and he jammed with doyle bramhall during his set and also with the all star blues jam with clapton, jimmie vaughan, buddy guy, robert cray and hubert sumlin....just amazing!!

also saw john mayer and he is very good and he can play the guitar.

just have to make it a couple more months for the woodlands.....

just for everyone's information ~ eric, did you ever get the shirt shop back up??? or are you and i the only ones that got shirts?? :lol

[eric_dmbfan03]

I think you and I are the only ones with shirts. I'm pretty sure Jason got one as well. I'll just make a new store when August rolls around.

well i know that i sent stuff from the 'tx tour store' to canada and il and co
so i spread it across the country and then some all by myself ~ you gotta open the store again just so i can restock!
thanks again eric for all your help ! i wear my raglan shirt ALL THE TIME and every now and then someone will actually read it and comment on it.
BTW- when you or anyone else on this thread are in Houston listen to 94.5 the buzz (especially in the AM) i'm always on there and i'm always yackin about DMB or ants...

[pay4whatuget]

hey i´m jumping into this thread late. just scored some lawn seat for me and my girl at the woodlands (both shows). anyone know what hotels still have spots?

[MexicoDMB]

All I want to say is that when it comes to texas, El Paso always gets the shit end of the stick.( is that even an expression). Sorry I'm just furious because I have family there and from what I hear El Paso is just not even considered Texas. It's just all out west by itself and DMB will probably never go there. I just mentioned this because i saw El Paso mentioned in an earlier post. Anyways, El Paso isn't THAT bad. It's getting better from what I hear, but driving from pretty much anywhere in TX to El Paso is a pain in the ass. I-10 IS too long.

[eric_dmbfan03]

I'm from El Paso. It's a great city most of the time. I really do love it and I love to visit it and do the touristy stuff, but the reason that DMB never goes there is because there is no place that they could play. The Don Haskins Center is incredibly too small, the place where they do Viva! El Paso is too small, Biggs Field is too small, and the city counsel is too dumb. Here's a story about El Paso: When Sea World was looking to expand to other places other than Florida, the very first place they looked into building was El Paso. They talked with them for years trying to get a deal. Sea World finally proposed that if they came to El Paso, they would not pay taxes for ten years. El Paso, being the dumb asses, said no thank you. So Sea World went to San Antonio and they agreed and the rest is history. Ten years have obviously passed and SA has the Spurs, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, Sea World, the River Walk has expanded since Sea World was built, and the city is just a great Texas town. So El Paso could have been San Antonio, but they denied Sea World. I still think the town is great though, an incredible amount of history is there in west Texas. I consider myself lucky to have grown up there.

[MookieBlaylock]

I think it is hilarious that El Paso is getting some mention here. The city is all right there is just nothing to do here. El Paso is the largest city in America without a major sports franchise (MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL). The local politicians here have no foresight whatsoever. They have been discussing an amphitheater for as long as I can remember (and we are still waiting).

An outdoor venue in El Paso would be perfect. Not only is there nothing between East Texas (Dallas, Houston, San Antonio) and Phoenix/Albuquerque, El Paso has beautiful weather year round. It hardly rains and once the sun goes down in the summer the temperature is perfect for a concert. Anyone agree/disagree?

[eric_dmbfan03]

Austin is the largest city without a major sports franchise.

All El Paso would have to do is expand McKelligan Canyon to seat more people. Right now I think it holds around 6,000 people. Expand that in the Franklin Mountains and it would be a beautiful place for a concert.

[MookieBlaylock]

I agree, expanding McKelligan Canyon would be a great idea. Unfortunatly it probably wont happen (its probably too good of an idea).

Damn, Austin is bigger than El Paso now. I saw a little note in SI a few years ago that had that statistic. Thanks for the info.

[eric_dmbfan03]

No prob. It was funny when I saw The Day After Tomorrow, El Paso is in it and they showed some of the local news anchors. I yelled out in the theater, "Holy crap that's Suzanne Michaels!" :lol That silly town.

security at both venues for dmb has been tough on cameras. i think it's more dmb than the actual venue though.

Yes. But not by much. People are posting their order numbers and I have yet to see anything lower than 800285 is the lowest I've seen posted but there's no guarantee that they even started at 800000. Guess we'll see once seat locations are up.

[texasdmblvr]

seems to me that i remember the security letting everyone get away with everything in selma last year..
i have concealed my share of cameras into the pavillion (woodlands)- sometimes they are strict/ sometimes they aren't... just be careful..helpful tip~ stand by a professional photographer and sneakily snap your pics at the same time.. when peeps see the flashes, they have no idea it came from you~

[eric_dmbfan03]

Someone try and get a HandyCam in there so we'll have a DVD :).

Cool, if I happen to be back in Texas then I will probably hit the OAR show in Austin too. Right now I am planning on being in around that time.

[jyt41]

does anyone know where the band usually stays...cause it might be my last tour for a while so i wouldlnt mind meeting any of them.

[texasdmblvr]

okay
i'm still in NY but i will be back to texas tomorrow 7.05.04

then i can bombard you guys with woohoos and eeks until august.... :D

if ya'll would like a little peek of what's to come
~see my photos~
just updated them and wow
good times have definetly been had the last 5 days !

[eric_dmbfan03]

Glad you had a good time at SPAC Beth! A little more than 40 days until the Texas stops.

[pichtd]

Eric - Will you be seeing the cover band Saturday in College Station too? Maybe I'll see you there.

[DMBTX10101]

This is just a rough draft, tell me what you want added or deleted or altered. Also, the quality is not as good because I did it in paint rather than PhotoShop.

Just thought I should point out that you have the 5-5-02 show listed as 5-5-04, that should probably be fixed.

Also, I'll be hitting all 3 TX shows and It'll be about damn time, it sucks down here not getting any winter shows. We get board throughout the year, hearing what a good time all you northerners have, at least I do. Oh well, I guess thats the price we pay for livin in the greatest state in the nation.

Just wish we had better taste in music down here. Instead we breed people like Jessica Simpson and Toby Keith . . . ugh.

By the way is anyone else glad the decided to skip Dallas and add another date to Houston?? Dallas crowds suck ass and Houston shows kick ass. Selma is a happy medium that always has a good DMB show, only the crowd could use a little work.

See you all there. It cant come quick enough.
Tex

[texasdmblvr]

okay guys.. sorry i haven't been on this thread much !
my heart and my mind are still in canada !
i finally figured out how to d/l shows.. (hey i'm a newbie to this high-tech stuff :rolleyes: ).. anyway my post show jitters are subsiding finally and i'm starting to get pumped about the tx shows now that they are finally getting closer !
when and where is the coverband playing? my stepdad told me about them a while back and i'd be interested in catching one of their shows.

eric, i used the artwork you sent me as a cd cover for my 'fantasy show' that i made for all my fellow vancrew members. they loved it.
yes, i noticed the extra show, but i wasn't complaining.. heeheehee

so, which one of you guys is gonna make us a countdown clock for the tx shows?
and- i wore ONE of my texas tour shirts to all my shows in canada and new york ~ VERY COOL ! i had the guys add the shows i attended on the back with a sharpie (good thing i bought plenty of shirts.) but still a really cool collectors item for me!!!

can't wait to meet all ya'll in august. the pre parties and post parties at spac were the most fun ever. ANTS are awesome ! :D

[pichtd]

when and where is the coverband playing? my stepdad told me about them a while back and i'd be interested in catching one of their shows.

They are in College Station tomorrow night, free show.

Don't get your Selma crowd hopes up too high.

[texasdmblvr]

guys they are all better than the northern shows i just went to...
in canada the crowd sat down for most of the show and in ny they sat down for all 4 or 5 new songs each night..
it was insane..
better view for me
but stilll crazy!

Eric - Will you be seeing the cover band Saturday in College Station too? Maybe I'll see you there.
Yeah, I was there. It seemed like the entire city was there. Definitely the most people I've ever seen for a Starlight Music Series. Looked liked the crowd was just slightly smaller than when Pat Green was there a few years ago. I picked up David Koon's CD after the show. Definitely worth a listen.

Just thought I should point out that you have the 5-5-02 show listed as 5-5-04, that should probably be fixed.
Whoops, thanks!

eric, i used the artwork you sent me as a cd cover for my 'fantasy show' that i made for all my fellow vancrew members. they loved it.
yes, i noticed the extra show, but i wasn't complaining.. heeheehee
Very cool. When is the tattoo gonna happen?

[texasdmblvr]

eric- i'm still waiting on exactly what i want to hit me upside the head - then its a done deal ~ one of the girls that was in the van crew with me in NY and Canada had a tattoo on her foot and i thought that was really cool. when i first started thinking about one i intended on having dave sign my foot (when i met him) and having that made into a tattoo. i've learned since then how they do it, so that won't be necessary, and when i did actually meet him last year, i didn't think it was appropriate to stick my foot in his face and say, hey man, sign here.... :rolleyes:
but i definetly like the whole foot idea..
i just can't decide exactly what to put... i love the texas you made me with the firedancer, but i can't put all those dates in there.. can you imagine 5 years from now? my foot will be covered.. EEK
i'll think of something soon ~ i'm ready !

i'm ready for august to hurry up and get here TOO !

* i'm still looking for night two tickets if anyone has great seats they need to sell. my ticket broker will hook me up i'm sure, but i hate the wait and see game..
ya'll check out my pics in my sig if you haven't already. the last three albums are from my canadian/new york dave shows last week ! i'm trying to talk some of my new ant friends into making the trip and joining me ~
really great shots in there from the 3 shows i went to- well worth a looksy :D

[eric_dmbfan03]

Sounds good.

Instant Ticketing's where you wanna be.

[texasdmblvr]

Instant Ticketing's where you wanna be.
damn it you got me all excited thinking they were putting up great seats or something.. how exactly does that work?
i know they do that- outta the blue right?
do you just have to be at the right place at the right time or what?
i think i've got some tickets now, but i'm always looking for the best of whats around ya know... :D

[eric_dmbfan03]

Instant Ticketing is usually just lawn tickets. Sometimes you'll get lucky and get a pretty good reserved seat but it's a stretch. It's for people who realize they're gonna be in that city long after the request period has ended. Last year, I realized I'd be in El Paso when DMB was in Phoenix, a mere 6 hour drive. So I hopped on Instant Ticketing and got a lawn ticket.

I agree, also I'm about to remake the Texas Tour store at CafePress. So as soon as it's up, I'll let you all know so you can get your shirt before they shut it down.

OAR was really good in St. Louis. They had quite a lot of energy and a huge number of fans in the audience. Some of them were more pumped and energetic than many of the DMB audience! :ugh:

I'm looking forward to them. I've never seen the other two before, much less heard much of their music but I know Howie's on Dave's record label.
