    I of course will be there. $115 is an ouch though. Glad I can do that and still do my vacation I was planning on for the week of June 24th.

    Can't do my usual 1-2 punch of DTE and Blossom this year since I have a wedding the day of Blossom but I'm glad this show is far out from other big shows I want to hit like SPAC.

    First time requesting tickets for the Pine Knob show! I requested the $85 level....what are the chances of getting approved through the warehouse for this show?

    Yeah, you'll get approved. But WH has been handing out garbage seats for PK the past few years.

    Well as long as we’re not on the lawn at PK we’re good to go. I’ll be taking my Dad to his first DMB show this year at PK so I’m pretty excited. Thanks for the info guys!!

    As long as you aren't too far to one side, pretty much all the seats are good in there, imo. I will state again that I hate the VIP stuff. I know some people use it but it pushes back senior members and if you are already hitting me up for 115 (more than double my first show back in 01) don't bend me over even more.

    Classic Pine Knob getting a mid week show. Too bad they still haven't done a two night weekender. Oh well. I'm in, and it'll be my only show of the tour.

    Anyone notice this show is exactly 12 years from the show at Pine Knob that had the debut of Kill the King?

    $115 now? My goodness. Anyway, I requested the $115 seats. But I am wondering where the cut off for the $85 and $115 really is. Sometimes they do shady things where the give you row lets just say C is $115 and row D is $85. There is no difference to me in 1 row but a $30 charge is a bit foolish. But who knows if I will even get confirmed for the 115 anyway. Im not a fan of PIT or the VIP prices so we will justsee what happens. I wish we knew the cut off for the 85 and 115 though.

    Highly debating on whether to skip this show because of the price hike. Considering hitting a few differnet venues... time will tell and I will more than likely buckle on the hometown show but I'm not happy.

    I believe Double Letters (Row AA) start the cheaper price seats.

    What I'm most disappointed in is that they are coming all the way from Syracuse the night before, that's a long hike and I'm worried this show will suffer.

    I don't remember if it was last year or two years ago but it wasn't that simple. The sides that was the case but "lowers" were still counted as around the soundboard in the middle. so you're talking like 3/4 of the way up in the center. It's amazingly stupid.

    I'll probably go but the price is making me reconsider.

    No it wasn't as simple and I feel like it went up to DD or EE. Last year, it felt more like a cut between double and single letters.

    Three shows in a row, in cities relatively far apart, does seem like a dumb idea.

    Speaking of, anyone else from Detroit area heading to the Gorge this year?

    I have been active on the DTE thread every year, but I actually lived in Chicago the last 12 years. We just moved to Michigan (Waterford/Clarkston) last summer so DTE is OFFICIALLY my home venue now

    We are also heading out to the Gorge and will be booking SW flights there.

    My wife and I have been wanting to head out to the Gorge every year, but have never pulled the trigger. We made the (hopefully) responsible decision to pay down our debts this year, and (hopefully) we can make it next year.

    I know it's one of those things you just kind of have to commit to, but it's just not in the cards this year.

    Welcome to MI, btw.

    What up MI peeps. Typical weekday show from DMB, always a blast tho. I did premium last year with D&T, not sure I can swing it this year with the increase in price. Hoping to get lower reserves but know the likelihood of that happening with the warehouse is slim (06 member).

    Nah, can't justify traveling for DMB in 2018 but still happy to have a show in my backyard.

    My parents still live in Hartland, which is a 15 minute drive down M59 to Waterford. Welcome!

    We are actually considering it. Things seem to be lined up for the opportunity but now the ball is in my wife's court.

    At this point the Gorge is more for the people and overall experience. Being able to camp and hangout with so many like minded people/old friends/new friends for 4 days at this point in life is priceless to me.

    Another reason why the Mexico trip was so amazing (didn't go this year, but went in 2017)

    Honestly this show is more about the whole experience for me. I mean I still love the music but I've gone to so many shows now that the only songs I don't hear are more rare ones. It's the only time of year I see certain people and it's a great day from start to finish. Honestly I was starting to get bored with going back in 07 and now it's like a reunion so I look forward to it every year. Gorge I would do but working at a university the few days before Labor Day it's tough to get away and ya know having a kid drains your money too. lol

    I agree. The parking lot and friend experiences really do define the concert experience for DMB. I feel like I need to make it to the Gorge just once and then I can settle my DMB pursuit. I've already been to DC, Alpine, MSG, and SPAC. Not much left other then the Gorge and Red Rocks, IMO.
