I said all things considered meaning that expectations are obviously very high for a 4-night NYE run. At the end of the day, is anyone going to point to either show as one of their 2012 best?Kudos to the free Stream though, I thought the quality was really good considering the price.
Do I just need a ustream acct to get rid of those commercials?And does anyone else have small popping noises in the audio?
Yes....getting good....where will we go from here....Ghost perhaps?this DWD will set the tone.
I'm with ya. Stream to the show?

Agreed. ****'s is quickly becoming the best show of the Summer, and Tahoe is so gorgeous and so much easier to plan than the Gorge.Those of us with young'ns have to just sneak away for a show here and there.
how's that venue in Chicago?damn, might be able to catch Phish and PJ on back to back nights in chicago

My buddy used to be the GM of Northerly Island, so I've seen a bunch of shows thereIt's an entirely outdoor venue...The location is great...It sits on the site of a former small airport, jutting into Lake MIchigan...It is directly East of Soldier FIeld in the heart of Chicago, so it is extremely easy to get to...This also generates some awesome views of Chicago skyline in the background behind the stage, like this: Nightimehow's that venue in Chicago?damn, might be able to catch Phish and PJ on back to back nights in chicago
Thanks TU. Obviously much closer venues for me out here in Cali, but I'd love to talk wifey into a long wkend in Chicago this summer.My buddy used to be the GM of Northerly Island, so I've seen a bunch of shows thereIt's an entirely outdoor venue...The location is great...It sits on the site of a former small airport, jutting into Lake MIchigan...It is directly East of Soldier FIeld in the heart of Chicago, so it is extremely easy to get to...This also generates some awesome views of Chicago skyline in the background behind the stage, like this: Nightimehow's that venue in Chicago?damn, might be able to catch Phish and PJ on back to back nights in chicago
It's pretty small, about 7,500 capacity...And it's a totally temporary structure, all the grandstands and the stage are assembled before the concert season and disassembled afterwards...The sound quality can be dicey, as it is outdoors and temporary, and the seats aren't the most comfortable, but who's going to be sitting down anyway?
They have two setups, one with a decent sized GA section in front, and one with seats put down there...not sure which setup they'll use for Phish
on the perimeter of the stage/seating area are your usual food & bev stands, merch stands, etc
They have a VIP area in the far stage right
It can get very buggy there in the summer, so bug spray is a necessary accessory
Lemme know if you have any specific questions
We regret to inform you...Dreadful.
It used to be a small venue. They just added a 15-20,000 person lawn area to it this year. I guess the main area will still be 7,500, but it isn't a cozy little outdoor venue anymore, which is too bad.My buddy used to be the GM of Northerly Island, so I've seen a bunch of shows thereIt's an entirely outdoor venue...The location is great...It sits on the site of a former small airport, jutting into Lake MIchigan...It is directly East of Soldier FIeld in the heart of Chicago, so it is extremely easy to get to...This also generates some awesome views of Chicago skyline in the background behind the stage, like this: Nightimehow's that venue in Chicago?damn, might be able to catch Phish and PJ on back to back nights in chicago

bump. Will go lawn worst case...but would rather some good ones.
anyone else going?ditto. I am looking for one extra for any or all of the San Fran shows. didn't realize how small the venue is. this might be tougher than I thought...
