Re: Charlottesville may 7 2016

some of your guys' enthusiasm is making me think about this hard. Don't want to miss a memorable show, but, of course, no guarantees.

Is this show officially over-hyped already and soon (7-8 weeks) to be overrated?

    It's cville. You go because of the town. A show whether mailed in or not is just icing on the cake of a great weekend regardless of what they play

    was going do the same, but then I was thinking (other than the merch) whats the difference between requesting the premiums over regular GA Floor request? Cause i'd prefer to be on the floor over premium seats on the sides.

    well a guaranteed poster, cause i'm sure that'll be a shitshow to get one at the venue

    and then i dunno, i figure you're more likely to get approved since it's absurdly priced, but that's more wishful thinking than proof

    yeah my thinking too... I'm just saying it would probably suck to get stuck with the premium lower seats.

    I've had them and they don't suck - honestly I'd rather have them than floor - it gets soooo crowded and tight down there.. Too much work to get up front - well for me anyway!

    well its not so much about being up front as it is just being centered.. where as all the seats are on the sides

    C'ville is a great little town. I ran the marathon the Sat morning between shows in April 09. In Nov 2010 I flew into Dulles and drove Skyline Drive all the way down. Went to Dave's winery both years and Monticello once. Hanging in the mall is great. Easy walk from there JPJ.

    the entire arena floor is GA, you won't have a problem getting it

    the problem lies in the closeness factor...

    I've done seats as well as GA, and definitely prefer a seat

    Red Roof Inn FTW. Hard to beat $100 a night. Not sure I'm going to pull the trigger, but would definitely like to go.

    Cville is a fun town.

    Unfortunately, it's more wishful thinking. I have a friend who has been dec'd multiple times for premiums. Kinda nice though, in that it's not always about the money
