Yeah, they're expensive though. I think somewhere around $1500 or so. We wanted to do one for PJ last year. I got tix for deck 4 for Jack Johnson a few years back, they were sponsor tickets given to Budweiser reps. They're not that special other than you have a private port o potty and a beer attendant. Still, was a pretty fun experience.

    Those decks along the side hold 50 I believe and have pot o pottys but the angle sucks. This is deck #13 that I have had for the past 5 years that is in the very front, middle of the lawn. It over hangs the walkway between the pavilion and lawn. It holds 35 no bathrooms but does have beer vendor. A really awesome place to see a show! I have posted pictures before in the ticketing thread, but you can see it clearly at the start of the video that was just posted on youtube.

    Thats not a bad view at all. And probably a fun place to see the show! I would rather be there with my group of friends then the lawn.

    122 days!!!! I get more and more excited each day.

    Re: *^*^* Alpine 2012 *^*^*

    So seeing as this is my first time at Alpine, I wanted to get my tickets early however I need to take care of bills for a few things, etc. first. When I look back at the other stops at Alpine in past years I see a lot of photos of "Sold Out" signs, and just today I've been hearing on the radio how that it wouldn't be summer without DMB at Alpine.

    I know that it's a huge deal around these parts of WI, but I'm okay holding off on buying my tickets for a couple weeks right? I ask this honestly, but hoping that I'm making a big deal out of nothing haha.

    I have been in contact with someone at Livenation over the years about getting this spot. I would assume you go through them, it was just by chance we got in touch in the first place.

    Citi presale was AWESOME.

    Came out with:

    Deer Creek N1: Pit
    Deer Creek N2: Sect C, row O
    Alpine N2: Pit

    Had a pair of pits for Deer Creek N2 but I passed on them because my fiancee will be with me and prefers seats to pit (she's short). Also had a pair of pits for Alpine N1 but I couldn't get them cause I didn't have my own Citi card to pick them up with. You better believe I'll be getting a Citi card for potential fall/winter/future years.

    Normally I would rather have seats, but I'd like to be pit at least once at Alpine. I'll never get 202s so it doesnt matter

    Been to 10 shows at Alpine and I've been anywhere from front row (2010 pit) to lowers over on the sides at least 5x but I've never had 202's. Closest I came was a few seats over from the aisle in 2010 N2. Wouldn't mind getting 202's for N1 this year.

    I can't remember if I had 202's in 2010, somewhat towards the center but still might have been 203

    Not going to go back read through all these pages, so I don't know if it's been brought up: anyone else notice they have n1 opening act up now? It's Brandi Carlile again. No complaints here really though, haven't seen her before and I always enjoy seeing a new show. Love her song The Story.
