    This will be a nice little pit stop on the way to the Gorge.

    Was looking forward to another Bend show before the Gorge but Vancouver instead will be even better. Being begging them to come back to Vancouver. I was shaking like a monkey after this announcement

    NOOOO .... herb cannot cross the border (and you will be turned around, if not arrested).
    But there are lots of friendly Canadians on this side of the border!!
    Arena will be filled with smoke.

    I think the arena aspect could be a change. To answer your question yes, the arena is right downtown. Lots to do and see around it.

    Both Vancouver and Montreal DMB venues are virtually in the middle of the city downtown core, in 2 really great cities. While the indoor aspect kind of sucks, each city has so much to offer especially during the summer. These are 2 nice (and somewhat surprising ) additions to the DMB tour schedule this year. Guaranteed good good times to everyone going to these shows, in 2 of the best cities in the world !!!

    How is Rogers Arena as a concert venue?

    I wrote the warehouse asking if the entire floor was GA and they said it was but that warehouse members will be able to enter first.

    The sound is good for a indoor venue. They did a good job on the higher seating as they built the levels more up than out.

    Curious myself. Is The Art Gallery the usual pre-concert hangout?

    Anybody heard how ticket sales are for the show? Ive heard through the years the band didnt want to come to Vancouver because of a perceived lack of fans.

    What's up Canada! Curious how many people will be flying out to hit this show before Gorge...

    I'll be coming up to party with the BC portion of our Gorge crew before hitting the road Wednesday/Thursday. Pretty stoked for some Vancouver in the summer!
