Home Depot Center Thread

nobody, i cant see why anyone would want to see dmb at a stadium like this, it's weird.

im going. but im looking forward to Coors more. home depot it is a wierd venue, and the crowd was pretty lame last year. hopefully this year will be better though.

[penn darvis]

Talk to DMB about it. Its the closest venue to me, so I'll be going. Probably going to Coors. Don't know.

[perrinbar]

maybe because we want to see them in general. Coors is much better, same with Shoreline but if they are playing down where I am and its at the home depot center, so be it.

why the hell is DMB playing in a soccer stadium? makes no sense to me

[penn darvis]

why the hell is DMB playing in a soccer stadium? makes no sense to me
Because its brand new and one of the only venues around. The band obviously likes it if they're coming back.

[urth]

why the hell is DMB playing in a soccer stadium? makes no sense to me
same reason they play in a basketball stadium, it's a contained area where people can hear their music. ill be there again this year....and this year we have Ben Harper opening instead of the shitty Roots

[cavecricket34]

Is the venue really that bad? I thought about going last year but didn't want to because I thought it was an indoor venue. As long as it's outdoors, I wouldn't mind being in a stadium. Airfare's relatively cheap, but of course, I'd need a ride to and from LAX and a place to stay.

[penn darvis]

The venue is much like a football stadium except that the stands aren't as big. So you can get put really far away, but it isn't as bad as say Giants stadium. Also, I didn't like the acoustics of the venue because it does have an awning. I'll be going to both. I haven't sampled too many venues so I don't know if it is worth it.

On a side note. Will Ben Harper and the Black Eyed Peas each have their own set?
Could make for some good guest opportunities.

[Cordevil95]

I'm going to both shows. Went to both last year. I sat on the floor both nights so it wasn't too bad. I'm not a big fan of the venue. If i had to sit on the other "end zone" of the stadium I'm sure it would pretty much suck. But i think anything up front in any venue is good.

anyways... I'm going!

[penn darvis]

Anyone else going to be there???

[eisnach41]

im thinking about it, cant decide. the venue looks like, eh? so im not sure after 3 shows i want to blow 140 on a crappy venue, but who knows.

[2StepMarching]

Hell Ya im going Ben ahrper and Black eyes Peas with DMB !!!!! y wouldnt i go !!!

As nice as CA is, you'd be better off going to the festival. Come here next summer(or get away from the freezing cold if they come here in the winter again).

[mattc]

agreed. although im going to try and swing the festival also. flights from LAX are only like 230 a person rountrip right now. trying to decide if i should wait to see if they are going to announce travel packages.

i would go to the festival but i only go to school in ny, i am from co. so since we got no show im doing alb and phx and maybe swing out to cali. i have been alienated and have to go searching for shows now!!!

Hit up Coors.

[Fendo]

I think I'm going... I have a cousin who lives in Redondo Beach now. Ben Harper opening is a definite plus.

[Alandmb]

Im going, i was there last year, it is not a bad venue, i think is the lame people, but i was in the 17th row, so there were a lot of big fans around, great time, besides the first nite had a great setlist.............
I hope this year Leroi stays healthy............

see you guys there and in CHULAVISTA and the GORGE

[ianseramur]

hell....once i heard ben was opening i knew i was going. I have a sister who lives in San Diego and I'm taking a year off of school....so I'm flying out in late august. Should be a damn good time.

[ianseramur]

This may have been asked, but how is the Home Depot Center for shows? Is any seat a good one...is the sound pretty good? just wondering...never been there before.

[penn darvis]

Its average. There are good seats, but a lot of band ones too. The further you get from the stage, the worse the sound gets.

[jahsh420]

Ill be there again...last year we were front row center for night one so I am biased. The venue is average at best, I wish they would just play Irvine Meadows and Coors but I am not in charge. Ben Harper opening is icing on the cake for me :monkey

I don't know why they stopped playing Irvine Meadows?

[mattc]

I don't know why they stopped playing Irvine Meadows?

well for 1, since i went to UCI i would sadly know this :(, they have a curfew in Irvine at 11. if you remember the older shows from there, they never played an encore, and just played a few extra songs in the set.


i cant really think of any other good reason though. it is smaller than home depot, but not much smaller than Coors. i really wish they would play there again.

Irvine's as much a part of LA as San Diego is.

[tunatime]

Iwas at last years 2nd night at Home Depot. Iwas 10th row on right side, but if i would have been in stands I don't think I would have liked it as much. Coors definately kicks assss

[mattc]

Irvine's as much a part of LA as San Diego is.

true true, but i still agree would rather they play 3 SD shows. i think you would get the hardcore fans from OC and LA down there, and get rid of so much of the bullshit people that end up at LA shows. Just my opinion of course though. im going to all 3 anyways, because i care more about the band and music than the people, just wishes and hopes :)

[nunee]

So since they are skipping Shoreline this year, my options are a LONG drive for this....or a long weekend in Washington.

Anyone have anythoughts....obviously the Fabled Gorge would be the way to go..but logitically it is tougher, and more expensive than Carson.

well, i would say personally if you can go to the Gorge do it. but the Carson shows will be pretty good. Can't you go to Sleep Train?? wouldnt that be much closer for you?

Thats amazingly retarded logic. No wonder people hate Californians.

It's like saying SD...Tijuana...same thing
Just because 2 counties border each other doesn't mean they are the same thing. LA and OC are almost polar opposites.

And for the record:

OC>SD>LA

OC>SD>LApeople hate us because we are laid back and chill and they just dont understand....funny how they hate us but keep moving here :lol im not trying to argue here. SD and tijuana is perhaps more retarded than my logic but im sure you would like to debate that as well. Sorry to offend you. Let me rephrase my statement so we dont go back and forth and miss the entire point of this thread. I personally do not care for LA or Orange county. So...back to the Home Depot center discussion ;)

[jahsh420]

thank god.hey Matt, you are everywhere!! I didnt make it to Blues Traveler so I didnt email you. I have been broke with the upcoming summer. How did you like Keller? We caught him in SD, I was very impressed. We will definitely hook up for one of the upcoming shows on our list. Perhaps a little Phish in vegas :bounce

hey josh. keller was amazing. he played some great covers (Scarlet Begonias->Fire on a Mountain, Gimme Shelter, ect.) and some amazing original stuff. those loop songs he does are amazing.

Vegas for sure!! i cant wait, only a few more weeks.

No, 1st year. Going to ticketbastard for Coors so that I can get more than 2 seats. Going to make the trip down to SD with a couple of people. Hopefully, we both get good seats. Maybe I'll see you at one of the shows. :)

Only shows so far with 2 openers. Don't know if thats good or bad.

I think they realized they needed something extra to try and sell out there this year. Last year was great with the roots, i thought so anyways, but i think the band realized to get more hype for the shows there, they needed something extra. it seems like they are really trying to build more interest in LA, i mean they have 2 shows there at a place that holds like 50k or so people.

That being said, im happy i get to see Ben Harper, and i guess i might get there early enough to watch Black Eyed Peas one of the days, but definitely not both. I'm hoping Ben sits in with the Band on slide guitar or something. however, i still think the San Diego show will be better than either LA shows as usual, but I'm hoping the guys prove me wrong!

The SD show always has a different feel than the LA shows or OC shows. Probably hardto compare.

[jahsh420]

The SD show always has a different feel than the LA shows or OC shows. Probably hardto compare.honestly its because of the atmosphere (crowd, venue, city). You are correct though, the SD show will be better than either LA show for the 4th or 5th consecutive year. Ill be at all 3 as usual.

you and me both. no one has tours scheduled yet, so it's hard to guess. i wouldnt mind seeing Harper again, but it would be cool to see someone else, since we'll see him twice at HDC. Roots again maybe? not my first choice, but i could deal with it.

[penn darvis]

Maybe Jem, since she is on Dave's label.

Who in the hell. What the fuck?

went to both last year but, was stuck in the end zone for both shows got confirmed by warehouse for both shows this year hopefully will get on the floor if not i've always reserved for cricket.

[mattc]

Who in the hell. What the fuck?

exactly. they must have been desperate for another band. jesus, couldnt ben have just played the san diego show too? san diego got shafted. although im not really there to see the opener anyways, but damn..

[dps225]

Now that it's official - I'm going to both Home Depot shows and the Coors show. This thread seems to have become a Southern California thread instead of just Home Depot Center. Last year I was 10th row on the floor for the second night (poor Leroi). This year, we're bringing the whole fan damily, so the floor was out. Got 4 tickets for each night on the right sidelines - not too bad for ticketmaster. So the countdown begins, just 22 weeks to go!

nice work. i actually managed to get 4 tickets on the floor out of pure luck. my friend got 2 in a2 row 5 and i got a2 row 4. then we realized we got the same seats #'s. that's pretty lucky.

gonna get san diego and night 2 later. hope everyone else did ok with ticketbastard.

[Sheik_Yerbutay]

I was confirmed for both shows at HD but thought I better cover my bases with the chance of a random seating assignment on the second night. Anyway I scored 2 tickets in A1 row 12. I just wish the WH would post the seat assignments already.....

[justinandimcool]

i'm going to the first show and since i'm not in warehouse or anything i got crappy seats. I'm thankful for getting the tix, but section 129! I bet you cant see from there !Those of you who call it TicketBastard are right!

im still pissed about the Coors opener though..

[tazeeee]

I am glad we cleared up Irvine is not LA. I miss them playing Irvine. ((since I live 20 minutes away in San Clemente). I think it is Matt's fault. Home Depot is ok. I was lucky last year to have seats where the sound was good. I am only going the second night cause Ben Harper is playing. Last year the crowd on Sat night was lame. Definetly going to Coors.

yea, it probly is my fault :lol. this year i plan on doing my best to ignore the crowd, as impossible as that sounds. sometimes i wish dmb wasnt so popular, so crowd's like LA's would never happen. oh well, it's all about the SF show, and that better happen. we deserve our own CP style show!

Anyone near me?

[Cordevil95]

So does anybody have some good hotel reccomendations near the Home Depot Center?? Does anyone know where they are staying?

[JanelleM]

Where are our seats there Mr. Corey?

well im driving there, but a bunch of nancies and WH people stayed at the Hampton Inn which is like a block or 2 away from the complex. i would recommend that one, should be lots of fun, parties.

Oh oh Corey let's stay here! :thumbsup

[penn darvis]

I wish I knew where a good place to stay was. Just have fun and enjoy CA.

[penn darvis]

Just tought I'd give this a little top. I was on a plan the other day and they had DirecTV on the flight. One of the stations was showing the Ben Harper DVD which got me pretty excited. Still wondering what's going down. Should be really good though.

[ianseramur]

hey ya'll. I'm flying out from milwaukee to san diego to visit my sister in late august...so we're driving to LA for the shows...got tickets through the WH...D3 11 for night one...C1 2 for night 2...can't wait to see Ben and Dave!

[Sheik_Yerbutay]

damn Ian..ya got second row center?!?!?! Too cool man, especially with BEP and Ben Harper opening.

[penn darvis]

Ya those are great seats.

[penn darvis]

Anyone know if Coors has a side stage band?

[jahsh420]

Anyone know if Coors has a side stage band?i dont ever recall seeing one and Ive been to every DMB show there except for one. I could be wrong though.

[tazeeee]

I have never seen one either.

[penn darvis]

OK. Never been, so I was just wondering.

[mihighdavehead]

Hey
How's the view from the third set od sections...like D3 and so forth?

How's the sound in the venue?

Thanks!
I sat in C3 last year and the view and sound were good.

[ianseramur]

anyone sat in sec D3 before?

[ianseramur]

hey..anyone getting rid of their sat tickets?

[mray10]

hey..anyone getting rid of their sat tickets?

Good luck with that.

I might (stress MIGHT) have a single extra ticket for Saturday night. On the floor. But it would just be one.

[ianseramur]

hey...are there any hotels that are within walking distance of the venue?

[neumdogg]

Home Depot Center: Not as bad as people think......Its much better than the damn Staples Center! Anyway, I'll be there both nights BBQing and drinking in the parking lot.....who wants to join?

[ianseramur]

i'm down...i'm taking the train up from San Diego for the weekend and staying at the Hampton Inn

[HudmeisterDMB]

i'm going to night 1. i don't understand why people are so blah about the venue, i went to both nights last year and i think its a fantastic venue. of course coors is better, but that's an amphitheatre, so it's expected. also, it is one of the only outdoor venues of its size in southern california. all we've got is staples center, but what's a summer show if it's indoors?

[ianseramur]

i've never been before...to either coors or Home Depot...so i'm curious. From a few pictures, coors looks pretty cool. We should get a lot of songs..at least those who are going to all 3 should get most of the songs played so far on the tour..not to meniton the possibility of Ben playing on Watchtower!

[jhlc8898]

Ian the Hampton Inn is within walking distance from the Home Depot I went to both shows last year and I though the venue was not bas better than Staples any day. Just a quick FYI we saw Boyd with his family having dinner at the Tony Romas at the mall a mile south of the Home Depot on Saturday last year. I may have to check it out again this year see if he is a creature of habit.

Jamie

[dayasha]

wrong....irvine is LA...san diego is well san diego. lets not confuse the 2.you are both wrong, Irvine is Orange County, San Diego is San Diego County and Carson is just barely within Los Angeles county

I usually fly to Alpine every summer, but this year I am seeing him both in Alpine and at Home Depot...never been to the Venue, but I have floor seats. Does anyone know if Section B3 row 3 are any good?

[ianseramur]

B3 is pretty far back on the floor...i had D3 but i got rid of them and picked up some tickets in 112 row 3..which i think will have a better view. It may just be a little hard to look over all the people in front of you on the floor.

[Alandmb]

Home Depot Center: Not as bad as people think......Its much better than the damn Staples Center! Anyway, I'll be there both nights BBQing and drinking in the parking lot.....who wants to join?
I'll be there................should i bring the drinks?
Going to both shows and Coors..............can't wait......and i do like the venue, c'mon brand new stadium, you have to love it........

[winenut]

anyone have any idea about the deal with the start times?
5:30 and 4:30??
seem awfully early- even for three bands, I figure that puts DMB on stage around 6-6:30 on sunday, 7-7:30 Sat.

I dont think he will go on until the sun is setting or has already set. So, I think it will be more like 8:00ish

[mray10]

does hdc have an early curfew? I'd be surprised but who remembers what times the shows ended last year?

[Alandmb]

http://216.58.174.213/dmbalmanaccom/setscans/453055990.jpg

I can't believe they were going to play PAY FOR WHAT YOU GET last year.....i like the song................. :BANG :BANG
hopefully this year, although it seems harder than ever...........

http://216.58.174.213/dmbalmanaccom/setscans/453055991.jpg

and they played Gravedigger and The Maker instead Cry freedom, mmh, hard to pick...............

[winenut]

That's what I would normally think, but most shows have a 7 PM "start" and he's being going on around 8:30, so for Sat. that's probably still right, but he may be on a fair bit earlier on Sunday.

[ianseramur]

i hope BEP's only play for about 30 mins and Ben Harper plays for about an hour, at least.

[mray10]

I'd expect Black Eyed Peas to get about 40 minutes and Ben to play 45-50 minutes., That's about what I've seen at previous 2 opener shows.

[ianseramur]

i looked back at other times when Ben has opened and he usually playes about 9-11 songs...so that's not bad i suppose.

[neumdogg]

I say to all the people who are staying in Hampton Inn, to preparty in the parking lot and not the hotel. Last year, it was a really cool atmosphere out. I always bring my frisbee. It gets harder and harder to throw the drunker i get!

[ReesePlaceBand]

i'm taking the Amtrak from San Diego to Anaheim...then a taxi to the Hampton Inn....hopfully that won;t take too long....mapquest says from Anaheim to the Home Depot Center is only 25 minutes....so it shouldn't be that bad i guess.

Check in is at 3pm i believe....does anyone know if they have a pool/hot tub?

[neumdogg]

[QUOTE=ReesePlaceBand]Yeah, I was surprised last year how great the lot was. I will be there for sure. Hope to see some of you there.


So true! Last year, I got there 3 hours before the show started, brought a BBQ and some beer, and just partied with people. It really went off last year. I encourage everyone to do it!

Oh my god. That is gonna be an expensive taxi. And it will take you longer than 25 minutes.

I was at Alpine this weekend and both shows had a 6:00 start, Dave did not go on until 8:20 on both nights.

[ianseramur]

how'd you like alpine? Was it the first time you've been? Great shows i thought.....can;t wait to come out to cali!

[EddieW33]

I was also at Alpine, 5 years running, and it was awesome. I am coming to Cali for a family event, happens to be when DMB is playing there, so my girlfriend and I got ticks and are pumped! Ben, BEP & Dave, WOW! Can't wait!

Just want to know what the lot scene is like, security, etc. What should I expect when I get there.

As I am typing this, I guess I should have scanned the previous posts, but I am too lazy right now.

See ya'll in Cali!

[ianseramur]

i've never been to the HDC, as i live in Milwaukee, but i heard that the lot isn't right next to the venue. meaning it's a bit of a walk. But i don't know for sure. I'm sure there's some tailgating....but nothing like alpine.

2 Weeks!!!

2 Weeks!!!I don't know who told you about the parking lot, but it is directly next to the venue. Now, I have never been to Alpine (seeing that I have never been out of Cali for DMB), but I can tell you that tailgating is certainly fun here. Personally, I will be out there 3 hours before drinking, eating, and tossing the frisbee. As for security, as long as you pour your beer into plastic or paper cups, you'll be fine.

[tazeeee]

Lot is right at Venue. And Hampton Inn for anyone staying there is a short walk. And So. Cal had perfect concert weather.

Sounds great to me! :) I am excited to experience a lot other than Alpine...y'know, they are pretty annoying at the Tweeter Center in Chicago - no tailgating, drinking, etc....that sucked!

Thanks for sharing the info...

[ianseramur]

sounds good to me.

[neumdogg]

TWO WEEKS!!! Its about time! I hate being at the end of the tour. I have been waiting too long for this. At least his free show is on this side of the country.

[seed2.0]

so whats up with this venue, i've heard its not that great? i saw part of the X games this weekend and they were holding the motocross shit there...it looked alright, almost stadium-like....anyone know?

[mray10]

It's a soccer stadium.

Hello Gravedigger... Question... I'm driving down from SF and am not an expert of SoCal. Do you know how far away the Comfort Inn & Suites in Long Beach is from the Home Depot Center?

Long beach is just south of Carson..I would say its about a 10 -15 minute drive by guess. Leave plenty of time for traffic...cya there!!

Thanks Jahsh for the info. I kinda figured it wasn't that far. But, I know that short distances can be long commutes in SoCal.

11 days and counting.

I was going to post a picture but my camera battery is toast. I'll post one later when my battery is charged.

[neumdogg]

I tried to get backstage passes, but all the damn celebs in this city took them!:BANG

[Trainer2375]

i wish i was going to Home Depot. I was there last year, i really liked the setlist, but the overall "feel" of the show lacked something.

I saw someone asked about the parking lot, it was right there surounding the stadium, so i'm not sure why you heard that. All of my friends will be there this year and i'm so upset i can't be there to tailgate with them. There were a lot of cops in the parking lot last year...at least where we were, but they didn't do much. Have a great time....wish i was gonna be there :(

[Thegravedigger]

Last year, Roi was sick for both shows. He left stage several times to get sick and then finally for good the second night. That might be the something that was lacked. :o

There was a shitload of cops in the parking lot last year and they were straight up Nazi's to us. We were up near the front though and we arrived VERY early so maybe it was because they had no one else to fuck with yet.

That's so bizarre. The first night last year, we got there 2 and a half hours before the show and the cops were so friggin cool to us. Maybe its just my luck.

Does anyone know how many seats are in each of the floor sections???

[Thegravedigger]

Got these today!! Gotta luv it when that FedEx guy comes a knockin. :cool:

[|UAY| |)(V)|3]

8 days people WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... my friend and i are making a sign that is gonna say, " DROVE FROM SF! SEE YOU IN TWO WEEKS!!! GG! GG! GG!"
yay... cant wait

[dps225]

We made a sign last year that read "Mom it's my birthday" since it was my wife's birthday. Anyway, it was one regular size piece of poster board, but the guards at the gate wouldn't let us bring it inside. No one told us we should try to be discreet about it. In fact, before we went I remember looking up the house rules and seeing that they would allow signs as long as they weren't blocking anyone's view, but oh well. Strangely, on the way out, we picked it up right at the front gate, so at least we still have the sign. Maybe we'll try to bring it again this year.

[dmbfiredancer]

But, I know that short distances can be long commutes in SoCal.


oh yeah! ALWAYS leave lorts of extra time when driving in so cal....its so unpredictable here! and dont forget that these shows start earlier than other places do...i think the ticket says 5:30 (sorry, im nowhwere near my tickets to verify this)

see you all there! :)
my seats are wherever craig's mic stand ends up...i'm pretty easy to find in that sense.

Just did a quick search and didn't see this posted anywhere - it probably belongs in here anyway. I just saw on the Official site that the Black Eyed Peas had to cancel for the Home Depot Center shows and that they're being replaced with Jem. Didn't I read a while back that the B.E.P. had some sort of fire that damaged all of their stuff. Not sure if this is at all related, but it probably didn't help.

Jem opened earlier on the tour, right? I seem to remember hearing good things. Regardless, I'm a little more interested in seeing the Dave Matthews Band anyway, and as far as I know, they're still planning on being there :)

I was kinda lukewarm on the idea of the B.E.P. anyways.

The real treat that us Home Depoters are getting (in addition to DMB) is Ben Harper!

This news made my day.

You know what? If this occured at SPAC, they'd make a new thread, so I'll do it, too.

[ianseramur]

yeah, Jem was really good at Alpine. Fuck the BEP's. As long as we still get Mr. Harper in the opener....i could care less.

[Cordevil95]

OK, i didn't feel like sifting through this entire thread... the tickest say the shows start at 5:30 and 4:30. Are they starting early just because there are 2 openeners, or is the band gonna be out on stage earlier? I dont remember them going out any earlier last year. And also, does that mean that sunday DMB will be out an hour earlier than they were on Saturday?

For some reason, DMB came out earlier on Sunday last year. Looks to be the same this year.

[dps225]

I was there for the second night last year and, as I recall, they could have taken the stage as early as about 7:40, but they didn't come out until a few minutes after 8:00. Some of this may have had to do with Leroi's not feeling well, like they were waiting to see if he was going to make it. Hope everyone is well this year - less than a week to go!

[Thegravedigger]

I guess the MTV V.M.A's are more important to the Black Eyed Peas. :(

[neumdogg]

Whatever.....The Roots was a much better hip hop act to open the Home Depot shows last year.

[winenut]

talked to the venue and the curfew for Saturday night is 11, for Sunday night it is 10- dmb will definitely be going on earlier Sunday night- they didn't know exactly when.

4 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ANYONE ELSE EXCITED??????

[Regicide]

here's hoping for a #41, since they haven't played it in the LA area since may 2001 (dodger stadium). LIOG would be badass as well. some unrealistic wishes: YNK, Seek Up, Say Goodbye and of course, Last Stop. We can only wish.

Whats the parking lot scene like at the Home Depot Center? I have heard that security is a bitch and the place is pretty unherb friendly.....it seems that alot of people bitch about this place--everything to the lines to security....is there anything good about the HDC?

[penn darvis]

I wasn't really too involved in the parking lot scene last time, so I don't about that. Took some pictures of a group tailgaiting though and they didn't seem to be getting hassled by security. I don't know about getting the herb in, but from the smell, it didn't seem too unfriendly a place to me. I assume that because the floor is so huge(bigger than a normal football field), once you get it in, no one is going to stop you. The security at the Staples Center is much worse than at HDC. The only thing I don't like about HDC is the acoustics(soccer stadiums usually don't have great acoustics).

Ok y'all, I am getting ready to head to the airport - and I will be in Cali for the second show! There are a few songs I am wishing for which DMB did not play at Alpine, so I hope he doesn't blow his load on the first night as he did at Alpine (although the second night was still very good). Ben could stir things up - but I would like to hear any of the following: Watchtower, 2 step, Good Good Times. I am not asking much, since I am very excited to experience another show in a different location! See ya on Sunday!:)

Ok, so listen guys. About the parking lot: It's not bad! I got trashed in the parking lot last year with no hassle. You just have to be smart about it. For instance, pour your beers into cups instead of drinking it straight from the can. Another example, while finding places to pee, choose a secluded location. An finally, if smoking, dont take a hit and blow it in a cop's face.....dont think that'll help you get in the venue.
