Excellent! I will also be accompanied by the hubs. They run a shuttle to City Place which is supposed to be nice to walk around for in between or after the shows.

We are kinda local and yeah, city place is great. They have lots of shopping and some really great restaraunts like Taverna Opa, BB Kings, The Belagio and Cheesecake Factory. It's also close to clematis street which has a ton of clubs if you're looking for some night life.

We live about an hour north of WPB so we just got the hotel more out of convenience, it kinda sucks to have to drive all the way back home after getting all tired and sweaty. Plus, we just needed the weekend away from normal, lol.

I'm super excite that there are some fellow ants staying at our hotel though!! We'll be on the lookout for ya

We may see Lasim Richards again. He's guested the last 2 (at least) years there. He was good, so I wouldn't mind seeing him again

Alright! We're driving over from Tampa.

Every time I see or hear Clematis St. I think of Clamato.

Someone may have already posted this, so I apologize in advance if this is old news.

Just found out that TR3 is playing at Roxy's Pub on Clematis on Thurs and Fri (not sure how he's doing that on Fri??). Emailed them for more info on ticket prices, etc.

It looks like that is where my crew (all 3 of us - haha) will be Thurs night once we get in from Tampa. Anyone else going?

[thehammer316]

Don't forget your ponchos and spare shirts

[matt1416]

My wife and I are staying at the Hilton Garden Inn as well. Also, just got the e-mail that we were upgraded to Pit tickets for night 1!

[PuTeR_54]

They've done this the last few years in West Palm. It's a lot of fun and Tim always beats you there haha. Definitely recommend checking them out!

[wildbill79]

I get more and more excited for wpb n2 every day! First ahow here in the palms and haven't been this excited to see dave play in a while. The boys seemed to be putting on some really great shows this tour and I'm sure west palm will be no exception. Especially seeing as night 2 is their last show till the end of august hopefully they'll have something extra in store for us. Like i posted before I'm sure roger smith will be sitting in but I'm really hoping for another surprise or two from the sets to the guests. Nonetheless this shows sure to be my summer highlight, especially seeing as it's the only show I'll see this year I'm really excited. Don't let me down dave!!!

Are you guys staying on the beach when yall go down there? I'm thinking about going, just curious to how close the beach is and all that jazz.

[destrow111]

What 1 song does everyone want to here at West Palm? Should we start a Twitter campaign and try to make it happen? I'm thinking the stone or JTR.

SPOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We'll hear the Stone most likely, but JTR would be a stretch, so that could be cool.

[thehammer316]

Twitter Campaigns are redic. Just inbox Fonz.

I was thinking if we campaign it should be for something cool and really unique like PFWYG or Hello Again

PFWYG

[wildbill79]

The song that jane likes or Little thing would make my night, crazy easy would really blow me away but i don't want to set the bar to jigh. Honestly though it's very rare that chants or signs really change the setlist. I remember spac 2010 we planned the last stop chants and carried them out in between just about every song and although we got a few bars and a verse from dave for acknowledgement before #41 we still didn't get the whole song. It was still a good time though & itsfunny sometimes to see daves reaction to our enthusiasm.

I agree, it would be awesome to hear it. Now that the band does full band e1 songs i think this would be perfect. Should we make this a campaign song for twitter?

Or the DOOF thread being bumped made me think how awesome it would be if the band busted that out for us. Tim and the horns would be great on it and Dave could just focus on the lyrics.

I am. I'm staying on Singer Island. It's about 20 minutes or so from the venue.

There are other beaches that are closer, though.

Where do we sign up to anti-campaign? When is the last time you wanted to get hit in the head with a little, retarded-ass, black, plastic spoon?

Thank you - This made me laugh!! I was annoyed enough in Dallas getting hit with mini glow sticks!

[LastStop007]

We are headed to the TR3 show on Thursday night. Tickets are $15... My little bro's birthday is that night. Looking forward to it!
