    ya, fiddlers is in the middle of an office park. you may want to park at the light rail garage for another show day during the early summer and scope out thelot scene. some of the office building will charge for people to park in their lots, and some of them allow tailgating. do some recon. im 6 miles from the venue, so my crew will be pregaming at my place and then taxing it over.

    Yep like sax said the venue is in the middle of an office park. Some lots don't care if you tailgate but most do. They don't want to be liable for stupidity. Most tailgating at this venue usually takes place at a bar that is close. The police department in this city cracks down pretty hard too so be careful out there.

    where is a good place to park downtown for a rockies game that doesn't rape your wallet? the garage i normally park in when i go downtown (market and 18th) is used as a game lot, so instead of paying like $5-7 i have to pay $15. shits almost as much as the damn ticket to the game.

    Well I live in Austin, so I won't be able to do much recon.


    My friend that we're staying with lives pretty close to the venue, I think like 2 miles, so I'm guessing he knows where to do whatever. He just hadn't mentioned to me that there was no tailgating.

    I'm guessing we'll just pre-game at his place and taxi/uber/walk over. Which is totally fine, but I just like meeting people in the lots.

    The more I hear, the more this sounds like The Woodlands. Woodlands is in the middle of a very upscale shopping district. There are garages, but it's hit or miss as to which ones will let you drink in them (mostly miss). There is zero tailgating scene. So we just all meet at this one bar/restaurant every year.

    heres the google earth view of fiddlers green. definitely not where you would expect to find a 18,000 seat concert pavilion.

    i work on the Auraria campus, I usually park here for $6 and walk on over. little bit of a hike, but its cheap and I dont get stuck in the lot forever as everyone leaves at the same time.

    Going to be honest... The addition of Bela makes the "no tailgating" easier to stomach. Pretty excited for this!

    I wasn't planning on driving down for the shows this year because we just bought a new house but...yeah, now I think it's a must. I hope our old house sells before instant ticketing gets posted.

    Just got tickets for this two night stand. Coming from Midwest. Been to mile high and red rocks but what should I expect from this venue? How's the lawn?

    Happy Dave season everyone. Lucky enough to get off work early today, finally get to listen to the latest Warehouse disc, kick back and drink some PBRs. So get this. We're moving to Colorado! Ain't that wild? My wife and I are moving to Greeley end of June. All the way from West By God Virginia. We're excited, scared, financially strapped, giddy, restless, you name it. I've never lived outside this state so it's going to be a wild experience for me. Ultimately, we're saving money, moving up in our careers, and setting forth on an adventure our marriage desperately needs. It's all good really.

    We haven't bought tickets for this two night stand yet, you know, financially strapped and all, but eventually when things settle down we'll be making it work. We do however have tickets for the Pittsburgh show June 6, our home venue for the past 8 years. Reading about the lack of tailgating is concerning, bc we're so used to Starlake and it's enormous gravel lots and "best in the biz" tailgating. Honestly, we've been to 20 shows and Starlake's tailgating is definitely the best we've seen. With the addition of Bela to the lineup though I can let the tailgating slide. We were lucky to catch him at Starlake last year and that Typical Situation was magical. Truly.

    Whiteysax, if you're reading this, we jammed at Bristow 2012 (i think that was the year). Ants tailgate was rolling that year, great turnout. Doubt you remember me. Would love to check out your band when we get to CO.

    I look forward to moving into your beautiful state and hope we don't make a mess of things while we're there. Until the end of August friends.
