***Official Ohio 2014***

Figured we could combine the Ohio shows, it's usually Riverbend(Southeastern Ohio) and Blossom(Northeastern Ohio). A lot of seasoned Ohio show vets on the boards.

I really hope Columbus(Central Ohio) gets a show this year. We have not had one since 2010 but since Polaris/Germain closed, the sales have been pretty low and a lot of bad crowd members attend. If there is a Columbus show, I'll try to organize a get together somewhere downtown.

Is it summer yet?

    We're missing TX shows with the baby coming in April, we may end up hitting a show in Ohio. It's our next closest shot.

    I'd like to do Blossom again, especially if it is back to back with another show, preferably on a weekend.

    Definitely doing Blossom!

    Was hoping to do Riverbend this year, but July 9th is my daughter's first birthday, so I probably won't be making it there. I missed Riverbend last year because my daughter was only 3 days old at that point! (But I did get to go to Blossom)

    Wish they'd hit Columbus again. Maybe if there's an album they'll do an indoor show here for the fall/winter tour!

    If anybody is coming to Riverbend who has never been there before, I cannot stress this enough:

    DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A LAWN TICKET!

    If you do insist on getting lawn tickets, I cannot stress this enough:

    GET THERE EARLY TO GET A DECENT SPOT, BECAUSE THERE ARE RIDICULOUS PILLARS THAT ARE VERY LARGE AND WIDE AND THEY WILL RUIN YOUR NIGHT AND LEAVE YOU STARING AT THE VIDEO SCREENS!!

    The lawn at Riverbend is crap. Full of high school drunk yappers. The lawn is AstroTurf and the hill is bad with those polls.

    The worst lawn, in all my show experiences, in the country... Its nice pavilion seats are readily available. Its also nice to have deer creek so close

    Alpine lawn sucks more IMO but still, this is bad. Deer Creek is awesome. If you can here at Riverbend, get a seat that is not obstructed view. Worth every $.

    Summer shows are not for indoors. Seeing shows at Nationwide sucks anyways. I refuse to see shows there or at Value City Arena. I'd rather drive to see them at the Nutter Center if it's indoors.

    Trying to decide between Blossom and Riverbend. We've never been to either one. We usually go to Alpine but that's out obviously and we've been to Deer Creek many times. Want to try something new. Driving from Chicagoland. Between Riverbend and Blossom, which is the better time?

    Blossom and I'd get a seat or pit. Lawn has some view and sound issues. Off to the side, sound is hard to come by and the roof has a slope which makes it hard to see.

    Columbus has Crew Stadium and Huntington Park which they've played before. Must not like them. They weren't bad shows I didn't think. A show in Ohio Stadium would be awesome!
