Official Deer Creek 2004 Thread

[JmoneyDMB]

It looks like it's going to be another weekend of crazy camping at sleepybear in late June for me and a few others making the 5 hour trip from wisconsin. You can't beat the camping at deer creek, its right across the street from the venue. I had a blast there last year, nothing like having a few cocktails before the show and hearing sound check, and then going to see two great shows.

Noting that alpine and the gorge are late in the tour I just may have to give Deer Creek a try this year to get my dmb fix. It's a ways out there from me (17 hours according to yahoo) but if I can scrounge up a couple friends it just may work out. I'll stay tuned here for camping info.

[stoned_ants_40]

You know I'll be there. I live 10 mins away from Deer Creek. Love that place to death.

Is Sleepybear the best campground there? What's the word on the Verizon campground?

Is Sleepybear the best campground there? What's the word on the Verizon campground?


I have only been to sleepybear, and I had a great time there, the owners were real cool and so were all the campers. I have not stayed at Verizon. I think Dead Creek is also a campground thats real close to the venue, so you may want to check their website too.

[daveindy2k2]

go to dead creek.

[Mitza24]

Do they Allow Tailgating in the parking lot at Deer Creek.. I was there in 2002 and this ass kept harassing us to go into the venue at 4:30 when the gates weren't even opened?? Enjoying the day before show and not spending 8 bucks a beer inside is nice.

Deer creek (before Verizon bought it) used be a great time tailgating, just wondering if its still not allowed? Also, If I do park there, can I just carry my shit to the camping area to tailgate? Thanks, any help on this will be appreciated.

[sullydmb41]

So for someone who has stayed at Sleepybear, Verizon, and Dead Creek... which one do you prefer and why?

[pj4real29]

could somebody post some pics of the venue? thanks

Timmy, i thought u said u had obligations?? DOnt get my hopes up. If we go to Deer Creek, we might as well hit OHio too. Plus, i can almost guarentee a place to stay in MN on the way there and back. everyone on my floor lives in little MN towns right off I-90

Yeah, it was in july, not june :BANG , I'm not sure if i can get enough time off to do ohio too. Time will tell.

[mcgillespie]

I stayed at Verizon and it was great. It's on the actual property and has plenty of room. Never had a problem with "security" for any reasons.

[The J2H]

I stayed at Verizon and it was great. It's on the actual property and has plenty of room. Never had a problem with "security" for any reasons.

so what is the going rate for each of these campgrounds? also, what are the perks of each campground?

[The J2H]

can anyone answer my question? it would be greatly appreciated

[marhoochia]

i will b making the 13 hour hike from NC

[twostepping]

Last year me and my buddies stayed in the parking lot until 7:45 and never had a problem with security. Plus we stayed in the lot until about an hour after the show ended and never had a problem either. I can't wait for this year. My Aunt lets me and my friends stay at her house in Hartford City(free room and board). Does anybody know of any golf courses in the area?
And remember to buy your booze on saturday, Indiana is dry on sundays. My buddies learned that the hard way last year.

[dmb_41_sd]

can anyone answer my question? it would be greatly appreciated

I would if I could, but I'm hoping to make my first trip to deer creek too along with steve (modestmouse). Keep us updated on what you plan on doing for camping, i'm sure that's what we'll be doing too.

[pooleman]

i will b making the 13 hour hike from NC
You won't be sorry, it's a nice venue! :)

[The J2H]

so the venue website was pretty useless to me...all it said was camping prices vary upon different acts, and it didn't have any prices from last year. those bastards!

http://www.deadcreekcamp.com/dmb2004.htm

[The J2H]

this whole price of camping thing is starting to bug me. there's no information on the website, and i have no clue when they'll add that. being on a tight budget, i'd like to know if i can afford to make this trip. i'm not anticipating any high camping fee, but then again, you never know.

did anyone who is posting here stay at Deer Creek last year, and if so, how much was it per vehicle?

thank you very much in advance

[The J2H]

http://www.deadcreekcamp.com/dmb2004.htm
dang, you snuck that in right as i was typing my last message. thanks for the link, i'll have to look into this place. i assume that this isn't the camp site right at the venue though, is it?

[pj4real29]

this whole price of camping thing is starting to bug me. there's no information on the website, and i have no clue when they'll add that.

someone on the bridge said it was $50 for dead creek, but who knows...

[The J2H]

i just found that out too...thanks

[millersdmb34]

it was 20 a person last year

[The J2H]

$20 per person per night? their website said it was a per car charge, but $20 sounds reasonable to me.

thanks!

[Tak_a_Tak]

Just wanted to say what's up! Count'n down the days!

I just got some great news about the shows this year. I have a good friend who last year went camp'n but wouldn't go to the show 'cause he always thought DMB sucked. I worked on him over the past year and he's come to respect the band and Dave as a singer. He still thinks the band sucks, but he respects them. I just found out he's now willing to go the first night and check them out, and if he has a good time he'll try to pick up a ticket for the next. Victory in mine!!!!!! I know once he sees the band live its all over!!

[The J2H]

well done my friend, they will see our way...

VICTORY IS OURS!

they really dont allow tail gaiting anymore.. they ahd several problems at otehr shows and so they have gotten more strict on tailgating.. but if you park int eh orange lot (the one behind the lawn) the verizon campground is right there...

And remember to buy your booze on saturday, Indiana is dry on sundays. My buddies learned that the hard way last year.

there is a golf course about 10 minutes away.. it is called the woods of britton.. its not to bad..

[kgiles21]

To whom ever was asking about the camgrounds..
Sleepy Bear: Is private owned and is right across the street from the venue. You can hear the sound check and literaly have a 2 minute walk to the east gate which leads you into the top of the lawn. I have talked to the guy who runs it and he is a cool guy.
Dead Creek: Private owned. I have never camped there but everyone that I have ever talked to has really liked it. They are hassle free.
It is a little bit of a walk from Dead Creek but not to far
Verizon: This is where I camp. It is owned by Verizon and is patroled by VWMC security guards. The only thing that they worry about is nitrous. I work at VWMC as security and I have worked the Phish camping. We are laid back.. I like Verizon cause I walk out of the lawn and right to my tent.
I hope this helps out. If you need more info or have any questions or would like to know how to sneak 'things' into the show just email me.
Cheers,

oh maybe the most important tip. I will post this again as the shows get closer:
INDIANA DOES NOT SELL ALCOHOL ON SUNDAYS.. YOU MUST BUY YOUR BEER FOR SUNDAY ON SATURDAY.
--Kyle| I would hate for anyone not to have beer!

[Mitza24]

--Kyle

I don't know about any problems. What I do know, is that when Verizon took over, they didn't want tailgating. So, are you saying if I park in the orange lot, then I can walk over to camp area (with cooler/grill, etc.) and tailgate there? It was a huge buzzkill in '02 when this ass kept harassing us every 5 minutes to go into the venue when the doors didn't even open yet.

yes it did change when verizon took over as clear channel took over as well...
if you park in the orange lot the campground comes right up to the orange lot.. so taking your cooler/grill would not be much of a hassle.
some of the secuity guards there can be dicks as with any venue though.

--Kyle

[robdean218]

does anyone have a price for the camping at verizon itself, and also, where do people eat when they stay there? or do they just bring everything?

[The J2H]

does anyone have a price for the camping at verizon itself, and also, where do people eat when they stay there? or do they just bring everything?
someone earlier said $20 per person...but i'm pretty sure the official site said it was a per vehicle fee.

so if anyone could verufy one way or the other, you'll have at least 2 grateful fans

[mcgillespie]

Last year if I remember, it was around 50-60 per car for three nights at Verizon. This year, Dead Creek is taking reservations at 50 per person. Sleepybear doesn't have any info right now.

sorry, i have another question then...is that 50-60 for each night, or all three together?

[kgiles21]

its per vehicle and i think it is 50 for 3 days and it goes down each day..

[The J2H]

sweet! thanks!

[kgiles21]

if you camp there i am in the process of getting a sign that says welcome nancies.. but all the ants are more than welcome to stop by!

[The J2H]

cool...if i stay there, i'll be looking for you

[kgiles21]

well if you dont saty there you are still more than welcome to stop by. we will show hoosier hospitality to all that stop by! :p

[The J2H]

i'm ready to go right now....

[kgiles21]

i actually drove by the venue today and was jsut thinking the same thing!

[The J2H]

that makes me think of the infinished amphitheatre here in NWOhio, and man i must say the sight of that really pisses me off!

damn that city for running out of money...MORONS!!!

[The J2H]

here's to hoping the WH treats me well this go round

[The J2H]

...and everyone is gone

[dmb_41_sd]

...and everyone is gone

I'm here to keep ya company, i've got all my requests in, which campground are you leaning towards? I'd rather be hassle free and not stay at verizon and i'd rather see my camping fee go to good people rather than verizon or clear channel (but staying right at the venue could be cool too).

i haven't decided where i'm staying yet...i'm supposed to meet some friends there, and they go there every year, so wherever they end up, i'll probably be

[kgiles21]

for those of you that were at deer creek last year or the year before there will be some changes this year around the venue. They are building up the area around the venue with business. I think this sucks because it will probably take way from the venue being out in the middle of no where...

see that would of been wise... it is like an industrial park (no factories) just some businesses that are going in there.. i think a hotel a gas station maybe a taco bell or something would be so wise!

[The J2H]

got both nights....lawn night one and reserved night two

[Tak_a_Tak]

Yup!! me too. Both nights, but I'm reserved for both nights. Man, can't wait!!

[mcgillespie]

Just got confirmed for both nights. This will be a great time.

[JmoneyDMB]

reserved for both nights for me too. :D

[daveindy2k2]

confirmed for both nights baby.

[gravedigger2424]

im getting them at the ticketmaster at marsh goin to get there 15 mins early im goin both nights

[Tak_a_Tak]

im getting them at the ticketmaster at marsh goin to get there 15 mins early im goin both nights

I wish you the best of luck my friend.

[The J2H]

time to make some camping arrangements

[The J2H]

so do you have to reserve a camping spot at the venue, or is it first come, first served?

[docdmb40]

so do you have to reserve a camping spot at the venue, or is it first come, first served?


It is first come first served my friend. If you get there before noon on SATURDAY you can get a spot by the trees. (@ the Verizon Site) Also, if you have a larger group you can pass your ticket out to them and they can get in for free, or compensate you. THe people working there don't care, they get paid the same and the money goes to clearchannel so I don't mind screwing them over. We got 6 cars and a total of twenty people in on one ticket last year. Split $65 20 ways and you get one hell of a deal.

[The J2H]

cool, thanks

[The J2H]

i just went to check out the VWMC Camping page and they must be redesigning it.

i almost can't handle the suspense

[Tak_a_Tak]

Nice work my friend.

:thumbsup

[clayj41]

You know what sucks? All of my friends are broke, and they're saving what little money they have to catch Phish this summer. So, I've convinced a couple of people to go to the first night with me, but I guess I'll drive home instead of camp by myself and drive up alone on Monday for the second night.

[Tak_a_Tak]

uuuuhhhhhhh,
that does suck. maybe you could get one friend to go one night and another to go the next. you may not be able to camp, but maybe you could go to both shows.

[The J2H]

maybe you should kick your friends' asses!

[number4one]

i wanna go real bad!

[The J2H]

Do It Up!

[number4one]

do what up?

[The J2H]

get some tickets...make some travel arrangements...find a place to stay...and get to Deer Creek!

I couldn't get night 1 tixs.

But night 2 I scored Sec. D Row H tixs. Doesn't seem too bad.

[nutz81]

Here is a quote from Verizon Wireless's camping website....

"What can't I bring into the campground?
Non permitted items include weapons of any kind, fireworks, drugs, controlled substances, alcohol, nitrous oxide tanks, and pets."

Whats the deal with no alcohol, last year we accidently camped at an alcohol free campground at Alpine and man did that suck. We almost got kicked out because we got hammered anyway. I have never been to Deer Creek so I have no idea what campground we should stay at.

[Rhythmjunkie]

unless things have changed, the rules really dont apply. Believe me there are plenty of people drinking and getting mangled at Verizon. We were there last year and it was awesome. Although we are camping at Dead Creek this year looking for the more hipped out crowd. B/C Verizon was fun but at about 5:00 in the afternoon the Wrestling team had been cool long enough, turned on some loud ass rap rock bull shit a began to wrestle. They were playing and having fun but it just messes up the vibe for those that would rather chill and talk to new friends. Especially if your mind state is altered slightly, it just makes for a strange afternoon when the wrestling team is cussing and throwing each other around.

[The J2H]

the VWMC Camping site is back up if anyone cares....'

www.vwmccamping.com

[Tak_a_Tak]

does anyone know if both nights are sold out? I've heard a lot of ads on the radio about getting tickets for dmb at ticketmaster. I got the impresion that maybe the shows are not sold out. Just wondreing...

[clayj41]

Lawn is not sold out.

[The J2H]

nothing wrong with lawn....get some tix bro!

[The J2H]

here's the prices for the VWMC Capground:

PRICES:

Dave Matthews Band: 6/20 - 6/22

Rates:
6/20 - 6/22 $75.00
6/21 - 6/22 $65.00

[clayj41]

I'm going to the first night with 4 other people. Then, I'm going home and driving back alone for the second night.

[Tak_a_Tak]

I've already got tickets to both nights, I'm just suprised that the shows are not sold out.


I'm going to the first night with 4 other people. Then, I'm going home and driving back alone for the second night.

You should just drive yourself up the first night and camp with the rest of us after the show and hang out all day Monday, go to the second night and drive back home.

[The J2H]

that's a good idea

we could have a problem, i want to set up on the 19th, i wonder if that will be allowed? I remember last year there were quite a few people there on the day before the first show, i wonder if they will change that?

[deercreek]

Since the campground doesn't open until noon on the 20th, you could have a problem.

[The J2H]

yeah...i would call them to see what your chances are. otherwise, you could always stay somewhere else that first night

[docdmb40]

true, I may just go out in indy that night, i don't want to set up a campsite twice, but when i hear from them i'll let everyone know

[jbillings]

Did anyone get their Warehouse seat assignments for Deer creek yet or am I an idiot?

[dmb_41_sd]

if you dont have seat assignments, nobody has seat assignments.

I was about to say welcome to ants, but it took you a year and a half to ring up that first post.

that was only because of the ben harper/jack johnson show the night before the first night of dmb.

[Tak_a_Tak]

Does anyone know if there will be anyone there on Sat.? I checked the Verizon site and they didn't have anything listed. Just wondering....

[clayj41]

There is no one currently scheduled to play on that Saturday.

[docdmb40]

that was only because of the ben harper/jack johnson show the night before the first night of dmb.

So the only reason in 2002 must have been because of the thousands camping out for Rush

well i work there and the no alcohol policy is not enforced at all... the one thing that they really crack down on is nitrous.. so if you do this just becareful.. pot is hit or miss.. i would not just smoke a fat one out where god and everyone can see it.. i have worked there for 4 years and i have worked the campground for phish.. just about everythig goes.. except for nitrous and fireworks.. the security staff is pretty cool they dont really mess with you unless you are being dumb.. if you want to know anything about pat downs at the gates just let me know..

[The J2H]

who's keeping track of how many days we have left

[DMBvol41]

I was just wondering, for those of you that have been to Deer Creek on multiple occasions, how much do they enforce the "no alcohol" policy in the parking lots? I have been to Verizon Wireless in Charlotte and Starwood in Nashville and have had no problems enjoying some beer at either place before and after the shows. Just wondering if the lot at Deer Creek is the same and if not where we can go to do some tailgating beforehand. Thanks

[The J2H]

it seems like everyone has been posting that they don't really enforce that policy

the parking lot is kinda a different story than the campground. They do have security, police, and excise in the parking lot. We have had a lot of problems in our lots before before/after shows. So they may tell you to wrap things up and head on in to the show. I would jsut try to park in the orange lot (gate 3) as the campground is right there and you can just head over and party down.

Actually, it isn't in the middle of no where anymore. Indy is running out of room so they are moving further out of the city. I live in Fishers (only 10 minutes from Deer Creek) and it used to be a corn field. Really sucks though. Deer Creek has always been known for being in the middle of good ole' IN cornfields.

I mainly visit nancies but its awesome to see a Deer Creek thread.

[Tak_a_Tak]

How did everyone do on seat locations? Just check mine, first night: Section G AA (ugh, all the way in the back) second night: Section E row K (not too bad)

All in all, I'm very happy.

Anyone else sitting close?

[JmoneyDMB]

I would go to the Gorge. Last year I attended both Alpine, both Gorge, and both Deer Creek shows. Being from Wisconsin, Alpine is home. I had a blast at both venues, but the Gorge is such an amazing site. Deer creek was a better party scene, but if I was forced to choose, I'd go to the Gorge again.

No problem, I should have clarified, but I'm not going to the gorge this year because of lack of funds.

You are the one who said the campsite will be open on the 19th right? I don't mean to doubt you, but could you remind the guy who runs your website to update it to let me and my friends know that we will be able to camp on saturday the 19th. it says you can't get in until noon on the 20th and that it is 75 bucks for two nights. I don't mean to sound like an ass, but if you guys aren't going to be open then i need to make other arrangements.

specifically this email i got back when i asked a question:

Andrew,

Thank you for your suggestion. I will not rule out opening up the campground up a day early, however we must also take into consideration our show schedule the week prior to and following the Dave Matthews shows. Should we make any changes in our camping schedule, they will be posted on the website as soon as they are announced. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you again for your suggestion and we look forward to seeing you in June!

Me and 5 of my dear friends are going to deer creek. It will be the first time for us all. We got lawn seating for both nights and we will be camping for both nights as well. I wish we could stay for Phish, but funds just wont allow! Anyway its bound to be a kickass time and i cant wait to party with yall! :multi
BTW we like to share, so come over and say hi!! The more the merrier!!

[clayj41]

Oh, it will definitely be a kickass show. I don't have the funds to go see Phish either.

[Ccronks]

Hey Deer Creekers. I just booked my spot at Dead Creek, so I'm definately confirmed for going. I'll be there with Chris Drews and Chris (cavecricket), and possibly some others. If anyone is interested in meeting up at Dead Creek, or has any questions, give me a holla :)

[dmb_41_sd]

So, since this thread is essentially dead. If you're camping, post where. Verizon or Dead Creek or Lakeside or any others. I'm curious where you all are staying and it's time to get serious with making plans. A month and a half, are you kidding me?! WOO! It's almost here!

[Tak_a_Tak]

Just got back from Dick's sportting Good. Purchased myself a new tent today!! Bring on the summer camping trips!!!

I am camping at verizon.. I will have a sign that says "Welcome Nancies" I want all of the ants to come by as well! I am arriving on Saturday and will be cmaping through Tuesday.

[Dan5290]

Hey Kyle,
I got a couple questions:
Firstly, I'm not camping (I've got an uncle in Anderson so I'll be staying there) but I definitely want to tailgate and stuff beforehand......it seems like people have been implying that you can just walk into the Verizon Campground and hang out with people. Is this true? I've heard that they won't let you into Dead Creek at all unless you've paid, so I just want to make sure I have a place to hang out and party.

Secondly, you work at the venue, so how are you guys about people bringing cameras into the venue? I want to bring a disposable camera at least..... will I be fine if I put it in my pocket, or am I gonna have to crotch it/duct tape it to my leg?

Finally, is there anything else I need to know? Anything at all? You're on the inside, so give me the good stuff (i.e. what hotel is the band staying at, where should we meet at when you give me my backstage passes, etc. :lol ;) )

Thanks,
Dan

[kgiles21]

Alright,
I have done some searching and asked some questions about the Verizon Camground and what day it will open. It will open on Saturday June 19th at noon. Do not look for this to be up on the VWMC website for a few more weeks. At first they were not going to open up on Saturday because of staffing problems and such. Plus, the big camping days will be for Phish. We as a staff at VWMC get worked figers to the bone when Phish is in town.. So, they were not going to open up until Sunday to keep our staff rested up for Phish. But, they have received several emails and I have talked to them and they will open on Saturday. I may end up having to work 3rd shift in the camground for DMB but I will still be able to go to both shows! :monkey
Cheers,

I just realized that I REALLY want to camp....so, I think I'm going to be staying at Dead Creek. For those of you who are staying at/have been staying at Deed Creek, what do I need to know about camping there? I'm kind of looking for info like in this (http://www.antsmarching.org/forum/showthread.php?t=95030&page=1&pp=30&highlight=Camping) thread, but more stuff specific to Dead Creek.
Thanks a ton,

[Dan5290]

And how does it work, is it just first come first served, or what? Any trees, ponds, showers?

[kgiles21]

Dan,
Check out http://www.deadcreekcamp.com/
It is the web site. there are some pictures on there of what the area looks like. It is in a field behind the persons house.. It is right across the field from Deer Creek. It is little longer walk than the Verizon campground but a lot more people seem to like it.

[kgiles21]

For those who are staying around for the Phish shows, Dark Star Orchestra, is playing at Verizon on Tuesday.

at first i wasn't too happy about deer creek being at the beginning of the tour mainly because the band really needs a few weeks to tighten up at the beginning of a tour. however, we hopefully will see some debuts being the 3rd and 4th show!

sidestage at deercreek?

need details -- where? when does it open? an all girl band called "antigone rising" is playing sidestage and i'd like to go :)

[Tak_a_Tak]

That's the first I've heard of a side stage going. Last year they had a side stage going, if you were standing looking at the stage, you would walk around to your left to the back. If you make a lap all the way around you couldn't miss it. I'm not sure, but my guess would be it will be in the same place. I hope that made some sence....

Just made our reservations for Dead Creek. This will be my first trip to Deer Creek. Lots of beer, lots of grilling, and of course lots of DMB. Should be a great time, can't wait.

[arizonalovesyou]

Just drove up to deer creek today, well yesterday, for the blink-182/no doubt show. it was a 4 1/2 hr. drive well worth it though. I was in the pit behind 1 person. So basically in the VERY FRONT! The view was amazing! I am going to the dmb shows as well! Can't wait!

Anyone camping at lakeside??

[nutz81]

Verizon's camping website says that is discourages people from leaving while their stay at the camp ground. We plan on camping for three nights so I am sure that at some point we will have to leave to get some food, beer, ect... Does anyone know how big of a pain it is to get in and out of their while camping?

[Tak_a_Tak]

Man it's coming up fast!!!



anyone camping at glow wood?

If anybody is in lakeside or stops by. Stop in and have a beer with us. I drive a red and grey dodge truck. Maybe I'll make an ants sign or something.

[icemank121]

Hi everyone, this is my third and fourth Dave shows, last year both days were my first. My seats are Night 1: Sec D Row V and Night 2: Lawn :( Oh well, it will be fun!

[Tak_a_Tak]

I used to sit in the lawn every year, it can be a lot of fun. You'll still have a great time!

Welcome to Ants!!

[siouxsiesue]

open question for those of you who park in the lots at verizon:

generally how long does it take to get out of the lots? is it over 1-2 hours? i've been trying to decide if we should fork up the extra cash for premier parking, or not...

only 16 more days! :)

[kfiredanzr]

it's never taken me more than an hour...max. i usually ride with the bitches that cut everyone else off and we get out of there in about 20-30 minutes.. even if you are patient, though, it shouldn't take that much longer.
if you really wanna get out of there ASAP i'd say invest in premier parking, but IMO it's fun to sit and watch everyone running around looking for their ride and listen to everyone's post-concert DMB blaring from their cars.


ohhhhhhhh man........it's sooooooooooo soon!!!!!! :multi

[siouxsiesue]

thanks for your input...yeah, we don't have a rush to get out, some places are insane... so if it's less than an hour, that will be alright. can't spend too much more with these gas prices!

i really can't believe how fast the time is going!:cool:

[arizonalovesyou]

i had premier parking a couple days ago and I must say I got out of the parking lot in 5 minutes. Easy indeed, I even purchased premiere parking for dmb!

[Crumbo]

Instant tix locations for night 1 are up:)

[amb222]

Thanks for the information... no luck here though!

[arizonalovesyou]

does anyone think I will recieve upgrades for my tickets? I bought 1 instant for STL and I recieved center row zz (last row in the pavilion), and I bought a pair of instants for deer creek night 1 and I recieved sec. H row Z (close enough to be last row). I am currently bidding on bama works auctions, but I'll probably won't win any. I really think they were doing it by senority because I joined in january this year, oh well...

[amb222]

Oh no, I have senority and I am one row behind you at Verizon. I am looking for any trends as well.

I doubt you will be upgraded, do not count on it. (Sorry to say).

[Crumbo]

here is what has happened to me for instants so far (member since 2000);
I got instants for St Louis, Chicago and both nights of Deer Creek about 20 minutes after they went online:
St. Louis--front row center
Chicago--5th row way off to the side
Deer Creek night 1--9th row center
Deer Creek night 2--hasn't been announced yet

hope that helps:)

[kfiredanzr]

I really think they were doing it by senority because I joined in january this year, oh well...
if they are, they're not doing very good at it...i am a fifth year member and my seats are in the upper pavillion for both nights in indy....one night they're row H and the other they're row V. then again, i got lower pavillion for my other two shows (chicago and n2 of columbus), so who knows.
-kelsey

[amb222]

I'm not 100% sure when I put my bid in for instant tickets, not immediately because honestly I did not think it had to do with timing. Based on your seats, sounds like it might.

I joined during the first few days and my seats at Verizon night one are what third to last row. It's all interesting! I am curious where my 2nd night seats are through instant, they are not posted yet.

That's great you got such greats seats consistently through instant, I've gotten lucky, but normally mine are pretty bad.

I'm deciding between staying at a hotel for both nights or camping. I presume camping is where the party's at, but my own shower and a bed also seems better than sleeping in a tent. Any suggestions one way or the other? Thanks for the guidance.

i would definitely suggest camping....it doubles the fun of a concert experience!

If you ordered instant tix for night 1 and have not received them yet and your fed-ex tracking number does not work there is no need to worry. The WH just told me they haven't sent them yet and that they will ship this evening:)

Hey everyone,
Looking forward to meeting you all at Deer Creek-- unfortunately I won't be able to camp-- (staying in a hotel; not coming to Indy until Sunday afternoon).. but I definitely wanted to try to meet up with as many of you as possible. I'm coming from Columbus, OH.

Anyone know of any pre or post show plans, other than those who will be camping?

Looks like the tailgating situation is a bit of a crappy one from the way this thread sounds, but it'd be nice to meet up somehow in the lots if possible.

Anyways, see you all in a week..

Hi all,
My mom and I are making the trek from Arkansas to Deer Creek. We're staying at the Quality Inn in Noblesville. Hope to see some fellow Ants there:)

Will this be your first trip here? How long of a drive will that be for ya? Or are you flying in? Your mom seems pretty cool to make the trip with you.

Hey Tracy,

It will be our first trip to Deer Creek. I'm guessing it's going to be about a 7- 7 1/2 hr drive. My mom's the best...I took her to her first DMB show for her 50th birthday two years ago, and she's been a hard core fan ever since:)

Very nice! I hope you have a safe trip. I think you'll like Deer Creek, it's a nice place to see any show, but a great place to see DMB!
