    This is only the second year I will have been to WPB. So excited for the show!

    Where is a good place to stay? I don't really care about location, just so long as there's transportation. We took cabs last year and it was SOOO expensive. Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    We took a cab last year both nights. We stayed only a few miles away, and it was somewhere around $60 a night. We totally got ripped off! I'm trying to figure out a better way to do it this year.

    As a south florida local, I wish I could suggest a better transportation option.

    There is no public transportation to speak of, so you're basically stuck with taking a cab or renting a car. Both end up costing about the same and there are pros / cons to each.

    For that price you may be able to book something a bit nicer than a cab, such a a "town car" / car service if you book far enough in advance. The cabbies know you have few options, so they charge a ton.

    WPB is a small pit, 6-7 rows removed, and will be cramped by showtime

    Thanks for the heads up! Saw this yesterday, only 1 sec1 ticket left, but there was a bunch of seats opened up in the 9th row of upper pavilion so grabbed a few of those for me and some buds. Happy to have locked up tickets to both WPB shows combined with n2 lawn seats bought the day tickets went on sale

    For all of those that are asking about lodging...try www.airbnb.com. We have a large group that goes down from Daytona area and we rent the same group of houses every year it's awesome. Also, as far as transportation, try carpooling. I know in years past I've seen a lot of people that flew in hitching rides with people that drive in. I would definitely offer rides if we had room. Love WPB weekend

    Anyone know if you can get access to the VIP tiki area for a extra cost, without having VIP tix to the show? Last year I got lucky and won a wristband to the VIP area, but was wondering if you could just "buy" your way into that area?

    My girlfriend and I flew in from Michigan for night 2 last year and stayed at Courtyard by Marriott near the airport. Nice hotel with balcony rooms great for sneaking a smoke. Shuttle to downtown/ City place which is always fun. The front desk set us up with car service which was 50.00 for the ride there and back. Driver was right there to pick us up at the end of the show. We are staying at Hampton near turnpike this year for both shows which is closer to Cruzan. If anyone would like to share car service from there let me know. Im hoping we still have that drivers card. tcbrianw@yahoo.com

    The Hampton was like 75.00 per night. Courtyard was a bit more, like $80-85. If you go there and want a balcony room make sure you request one as they are limited.

    This weekend for Zac Brown they wouldn't let us in the lots until 4pm. Everyone was lined up on the roads outside the venue & hanging in the prison parking lot across the street. I'm not going to DMB here this year, but I figured I'd give y'all the heads up so you can start harassing them now. Remember they tried this on us last year & we shut it down. Good Luck!

    Posted this in the ISO page but just wanted to put it here to see if anyone can help me out. I'm looking for pit tickets or pavillion tickets for the first and second night of WPB. I'm willing to pay for it or trade tickets, old methane posters from previous concerts, and/or limited Live Trax Series Vinyl. PM if you're interested. Thanks!
