Which reminds me, for anyone with will call, this venue has two box offices, one on each side. The Warehouse tickets are on the dirt lot side, but they will have someone run them over to the paved lot side if needed, but will take some time. LN will call tickets can be picked up on either side.

Got ya. Just looked on the map. That's how I went last year. First time going that way and it was considerably easier than coming off the interstate.

Pryor ST is definitely the way to go for a weekday show, or when arriving after 6ish

[dmbclstj2]

Just as an FYI there is a beer festival going on prior to the show at Red Brick Brewery from 1 to 6. If your looking for some awesome local brew all in one location, it will be there. $40 bucks is a bit steep but its all you can drink and its great beer not crappy Coors Light in a 22oz warm can from the venue haha.

flying to Florida on Sunday the 31st... trying to decide if I should change my flight to Georgia on Sat, see the show, then hop on a quick flight to Orlando on Sunday with flights and hotels being so cheap, this is so tempting...

Add BOWA to that list. If we get both of those I won't really care what else gets played.

I was looking at almanac yesterday to see some of the bigger Atlanta song draughts and this was the short list I compiled:

Pig - Last played '95
Halloween - Never, teased in '03
Lover Lay Down - Last played '98
Raven - Last played '02
Typical Situation - '97
Last Stop - Never, teased in '03
You Never Know - Last played '02
Stone - Last played '02
Jane - Last played '03
BOWA - Never

Some heavy hitters on that list, here's to hoping a few of these get tossed our way.

Where's the tailgate gonna be this year??

[T_Train]

There is a small gravel lot outside the VIP paved lot across from the Chevron where someone is hosting a tailgate. There's a group on FB for it.https://www.facebook.com/events/1579480738971575/

Would kill to get BOWA. only have gotten it at Charleston on 7/4/08. Atlanta got a last stop on 11/17/10 I think is the date at Phillips and I'm pretty sure we got Pig that night too.

Don't have Facebook but I'll be there!

[treyfunderburk]

For those staying in a hotel... Where are you staying or recommend staying?

going back to look again, you're not wrong on Phillips. Really weird that they'd list the July show and nothing from the winter that year.

Seeing Halloween at Woodlands makes me hopeful about getting a good set in ATL. Last year's acoustic Pay For What You Get & I'll Back You Up was outstanding but it's been a while since we've gotten the full band to bust out a truly memorable Atlanta set list. Maybe the Piedmont Park show in '07?

[timsaleeby]

Sorry if already talked about, but does anybody know what time the parking lots open? I think last year was 3 or 3:30?

[dmbolp]

The venue will probably post actual lot/gate times on their Facebook page next week (Raleigh just did)

[treyfunderburk]

Drive By Truckers and Shovels and Rope will be in town on Saturday.

[treyfunderburk]

The only reason I mentioned that is because DBT is on ATO.

Thought Shovels and Rope were.. But they're not.

[treyfunderburk]

Who is starting at 8am for the tailgate? That's what the fb listing says.

[T_Train]

I don't know if the guy running it will be there at 8 am. I think he said something like 10 or 11.

Dreaming Tree at my first show was a dream come true. I loved Piedmont.

Oh my god. Would love to get there that early but I wouldn't remember a single note from the show the next day.

[treyfunderburk]

Check in at hotel is 3 pm. Trying to get my plans together.

[T_Train]

I'll be there at sunrise.

Maybe.

[Warehouse41]

If Gregg Allman isn't on the road next weekend, I bet we could possibly get an appearance. Just a thought...

I am fully expecting this to happen. "Melissa" duet just like Piedmont, then stay on for a "Long Black Veil" when the Ladies come out. Mark it, Dude. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QGHIWxdS-Q

Then the Ladies seal the deal with an epic Everyday>You and Me>Stay to end the main set. Vomit everywhere.

[treyfunderburk]

I've saw Melissa at Piedmont park. I would love to see it again.

[dave4555]

I will be there. Not expecting a good set.

[recentlyJTR41]

Same^ unfortunately


Really don't want to Lovely Ladies. An over distortion Tim is bad enough but those three? Jesus. They make Donna from the Dead seem enjoyable.

Really was looking forward to this show. I love how they just give zero fucks what fans want. Amazing.

[dmbolp]

Let's all hope that Raleigh and VA get the LL this weekend
