Re: *** Official Texas 2016 ***

Uber fare estimate says about $20 each way for Conroe to Pavilion, which isn't bad. But then there's concert traffic to account for.


Ugh. Stupid fucking Iron Man.

    there's apparently a 2nd best western that's NW of CWMP that's technically still in the woodlands?

    maybe we should all look at that.

    since my posts and tweets were solely responsible for Halloween being played for the first time at CWMP last year, I'm going to update my list:

    Partial list of songs never played at The Woodlands

    Alligator Pie
    Belly Full
    Blue Water
    Break Free
    Captain
    Dive In
    Good Good Time
    Let You Down
    Little Red Bird
    Loving Wings
    The Maker
    Pay For What You Get
    The Riff
    Some Devil
    Spoon
    Steady As We Go
    Thank You
    Time Bomb
    #40

    I think I need to focus my efforts on Captain this year.

    I need to cross something off this year.

    I don't want to hear #34.

    I'm not opposed to Let You Down, but I feel we will only have a shot at it if they play acoustic sets again, and I'm not sure I want that.

    So true! And being Saturday will make it lot easier to get a group of people together to go. I know a few friends that want to go. But they'll probably all sit on the lawn and I'm going to try to get a pit ticket. If it was Friday though, I was going to try to do Mansfield on Saturday because I have a few friends in Boston... that's out now though.

    Planning to do Hartford, SPAC N1 and N2, Jones Beach, and maybe Camden. I know you aren't a Jones Beach fan, but coming from CT, it looks like it won't be awful to get to if I leave work a little early. What shows are you going to get tickets for?

    Hartford is the craziest tailgating I have ever experienced, ever, for anything, ever. at least on par with it. I've partaken in some crazy tailgates/parties

    nothing can truly prepare you.

    pit is relatively easy to get. I'm a lawn warrior if need be, but even I don't know if I would do hartford lawn.

    my summer depends on where I'm living:
    definite regardless : Texas, Alpine, Gorge
    flexible : Camden
    if still up here : SPAC, PNC, Hartford

    Nice! I want to do Alpine again, but it doesn't really make sense since I can hit 6 shows without getting on a plane or driving more than a few hours.

    You should do Camden! If you move, I can give you a ride from the airport.

    Interesting to see if there are more than 2 Texas shows (or the New Orleans one). Maybe DMB will just go nuts and play Midland or McAllen or Corpus one time.

    Is there a venue in Corpus? The wife loves it down there, I'm pretty sure we would be down for that.

    They have an indoor arena and Whataburger Field - they could probably get 10k there. San Antonio is relatively close.

    I'd be shocked if DMB ever played Corpus. I grew up there, and was pretty much the only DMB fan there :P Then again, that was in the 90s...that was Pantera, Metallica, and George Strait country

    Just FYI, There's a Best Western Plus - Woodlands about 4 miles from the venue. Still availability as of today and not as cheap as Super 8 - Conroe, but a bit closer. Has anyone stayed there?

    Edit - just saw Ryan's earlier post, assuming it's the same place he's talking about.
