That was the best part to me! then by the time we got the space between/shake me encore i had just about had enough

[cpxc.]

N2 last year was brutal. In the lawn for that show and paid the price.

Looks like Camden N2 will be my only show of the year due to work. Looking forward to it after skipping Camden last year!

[DMBstandUP1984]

yea I think the rain really killed it last year. N1 it was so hot and I had to hang around some dumb ship party before I could get on the ferry and N2 it was torrential downpours.

Really thought Dave would have stepped it up N2 to make for everyone standing in the rain, but it was a dud

[BTCS_JTR]

Standing outside in the rain waiting for Jim's was well worth it though.

[broadwaygurl618]

I usually stay in Cherry Hill for the concerts, but I was thinking of trying a different hotel and maybe hopping the train to the concert. Has anyone done that before and do you have any suggestions??

The NJ transit riverline will take you directly to the venue if you're looking to get right there. There's stops in the cherry hill area but it might be a short drive. You can take the regular trains from cherry hill too but they dont drop you as close as the riverline, which would mean you would have to walk a bit through camden, which isnt the best of ideas. Feel free the message me with any more questions

Sorry, I should have phrased the question better. I'm totally willing to stay in a different town. My heart isn't set on Cherry Hill by any means. Honestly, I just want to stay wherever it is easiest to catch the NJ Riverline.

N1 was solid. Even just closing with Ants or something after YMDT would have made a big difference though. That single encore was a dick punch and then a SMLAM closer the next night....

[DC Greg]

Anyone have insight into Warehouse or Citi presale for tickets to Camden? Best way to get lowers?

Thanks! Really looking forward to this one this year.

I got uppers when I did the regular lottery, and then got lowers when I did instants. Might have better luck waiting for instants. I lucked out though and did it right when it was announced.

Thx. And probably wouldn't be too tough to scoop some uppers on instant if needed too as a fall back I bet. Maybe I'll forgo Warehouse for this one then.

Is there a consensus of pit v. reserved for Camden?

[ajc_1988]

pit is oversold and miserable at camden, would not recommend

I agree. I was in the pit for N1 last year. It was my first time ever in the pit and after he took a break between sets, I kept getting overheated and fainting. I barely saw any part of the second set for N1. And I even made sure to stay hydrated the entire day. I don't know what went wrong...

[MouphMadness]

Being on the lawn for The Stone N2 last year during the worst part of the rain is probably my most memorable DMB moment to-date. Everyone around me was going nuts. It was an awesome atmosphere. I'm guessing most of the lawn was not happy, but everyone in my area was just embracing it. I got sick for a week afterwards, but that is besides the point.
