Fairly steady.
Can't wait 'til Bangor!
Kind of wish I hit Bonnaroo. Weather was in the high 70s and low 80s during the day. Too much trouble though.
Hitting Charlotte tomorrow though. Tickets are pretty cheap and lawns still available.
Buying Mexico 4 night pkg next week. Pencils out to about 700 a day...
I think thats pretty damn impressive. Nice hotel, 3 meals, DRINKS, and a show on the beach.
If there was a way to do MX without HAVING to stay at the resort I would be there. Buddy of mine has a family place in Cancun. Would be so rad to just stay there and do our own thing and then see the shows at night.
I sort of dig the cruise ship feel to the whole thing... Lol. 4 nights. I'll need a confined area that I can waller in to recover. Just keep someone sending frozen drinks and white cheese dip.Quote:

If I was to hit those shows I’d definitely stay there and avoid to wook party bullshit. Food in PA is ok but probably better options than the big resort. Much more laid back. Easy to find a place with a private pool too.
Edit : didn’t think about it....does the resort require you to stay there to get into the shows?
Yeah, they only do MX shows as a package deal. Have to buy an all inclusive package with rooms, etc to get concert tix.Quote:

New venue as well. This is pretty much all I will need.

I've got the 2 month free trial on XM and have really been enjoying channel 29 lately. I love hearing shows from this past week in little bits while I take a short drive. No way I'm going to a stadium to see them play, but the quick turnaround on the recordings is fun and the boys sound in great form.
Oh and a swim up bar full of wooks might be my worst nightmare.
So much peeQuote:

As far as wooks, I have heard there are essentially zero wooks at the MX shows. All 40 something dentists/insurance salesmen/tech nerds pretty much.
Ya - no wooks in MX. Just custies. Brad and Chad and whatnot.

Good. No one will be asking to borrow a sip of my beer.Quote:

Lets just call it 100 for the ticket tonight. My hotel is 200 (Last minute deal for the Omni Charlotte). Food will run me 100 bucks. 100 in gas. 150-200 at the show for drinks and nachos and such. So about 700 all in. NYC is where I really take a beating because Beatrice Inn.
I’m going for the cheapest possible show ever at SPAC on the 2nd. Driving home after the show, hoping to score a lawn on the ground and won’t be spending any money on alcohol. Gas is about $30 there and back.
Let’s Party
The alcohol cost at the show is absurd. Metal bottle Coors Lts for 15 bucks each...
Eat more L
Drink less
I quit beer a year ago. Last phish shows I was at in Chicago, (fall ‘18), I dropped well over $100/night and I wasn’t drinking heavily. I seem to recall a single whiskey was 20-25 bucks with tip. Silly.Quote:

Hell of a set.
This show fucks.
I just watched that second set opener. That was hot.
The boys are absolutely killin it. The shows are coming up fairly quick on relisten too. Also Sirius has last nights show on at noon today. Good time to be a fan.

Last night was the first good show of tour. Let’s not get carried away. I’m hearing rumors of improved sound on the lawns this summer, extra speakers and whatnot. Will this be the case at SPAC? Really hoping this is a thing.
I’m sorry but SPAC is so fucked now that they put in the beer/food paywall between the bowl and the lawn.
If I’m the lawn, get there early enough to sit right behind the soundboard. MNIAW says it’s the best sound in the place.
Oh, don’t I know it. The heads of today will never understand what that place was like back in the day. Caught three dead shows there, 84-85-88. Having delay towers on the back lawn with everyone getting the fuck down, that shit raged. No other way to say it, it raged.Quote:

I've only done SPAC lawn once in 2016 I think. One night. Never again. Sound was decent, but quiet but you really can barely see the stage at all. Whoever designed that place was on some good shit.

Buttah, hit me up if you want to discuss pre show safety. I should stick out like a sore thumb.. (or knee)
Oh hell yes, PM incoming with my phone number. Also, if you end up with an extra Pav, I would love to jump on that!Quote:

3 Corona tall boys. 56 bucks. Beach towel and two tshirts. 103 bucks. Ice cream cone. 7 bucks.

It really depends on how the mood will grab me. Sometimes I can barely take a sip and other times its down in one gulp.Quote:
