great photo. good to get a perspective of the venue. whoever is sitting in the pitt is going to be lucky!

I'll be in the pit, but I sure won't be sitting!

[Ghosts_on_TV]

I think we're going to be getting down there pretty early, like noonish. Any idea when they allow you in the lot?

I showed my boss the pic from the Merriweather show and told her they were playing the Mann next Tuesday. Between bouts of laughter she managed "Guess you want a half-day then, right?". I love my boss...

Peafunk and I; along with a whole bunch of our peeps will be doing lawn for this one.  I always loved the lawn at the Mann so we decided to kick it old school.  Can't wait to hit the lot for this one.  We are gonna try to get down there by 4pm.

See you in the lot.  Hopefully I feel better than I did at MPP.  Felt like someone roofied me. 
At least I remembered to take a pic of your "Jesus Hates the Yankees" T-shirt.

Holy shit bumble, I seriously thought someone roofied me too. Seriously. Were u at our tailgate with the green tent. That was just ugly, but in a scary way. Not good, not good.....hoping to erase that non-memory night with a good night in Philly.

Yes yes yes yes yes!

[headhunter]

Sorry that Mrs. HH and I are not gonna get to party w all you good peeps in Philly but we are sending out all sorts of positive vibes for some good rarities and a taper so that we can listen at a later date.  We LOVED Philly last year and it was were we met many of our forum family for the 1st time.  Have fun gang!

[Penny Lane]

Yes yes yes yes yes!

well Giddy Up!

HH--you and Beth and your enthusiasm will be missed of course.

I think it was a green tent.  I was hanging with Peafunk and Staggerlee aka Sean and Todd and also Jersey Dan and BK.  I went down to the show with my wife, and another couple (Dave and Mary).  I was drinking recklessly for sure but not enough to blackout.  And the blackout occurred over an hour in to the show and I only had one beer inside the venue.  It doesn't add up.  Last night I saw my friend Dave for the first time since the show and he had the same thing happen to him.  He pretty much lost time.  I had fun up to that point but I spent a lot of time and money planning the day/night and to have it end that way was disappointing.  So I am not surprised to hear it happened to anyone else.  Luckily my wife doesn't drink or we woulda been in trouble.  She basically guided me back to the Sheraton. 
I will be more aware in Philly.  I realize all this probably sounds like b.s. but after some time reflecting, I am convinced it is not in my mind and that it did indeed happen this way.

bumble, it DID happen. The same exact circumstances occured for me. I was doing fine (a bit drunk but NOT blackout) until about an hour after we arrived in the pit. Then, blamo, I don't remember too much. Dave & Mary are very good friends of Stagger & me. We saw Dave later & he was FUCKED UP as well. Stagger managed to get it together (possibly from eating & a little extra hydrating that I did not do). Thank god my wife & Stagger looked over at me about 3 quarters of the way through the show or I may have passed out. They immediately got me the hell out of the pit & for that I am eternally grateful. It coulda gotten ugly for me.

Saying that so many of us felt the same effects sounds a bit odd to me. Was the common element the "special beers" that were busted out at the end of the tailgate?

I wouldn't be too worried. I've been to hundreds of concerts in my time & this is the 1st time anything like this has happened to me. Have a hell of a time in Alpharetta & be safe!

Glad you were at least safe Peafunk.  I had rehearsal last night so I had a few beers with Dave and Mary.  We were discussing the whole chain of events and they both said you were lost.  And of course Dave was lost too.  The special beers were the common thread but I am really not sure so I am not pointing any fingers.  I just know myself and I know that I ingested something that I was unaware of/unprepared for both mentally and physically.  Oh well, looking forward to seeing you guys in the lot next week.

Well you and Trish were drinking my vodka concoctions as well  ;D Somehow we had consumed just short of a full handle also.  Sorry that this happened and glad to hear everyone is alright.  Did I meet JD or Bumble?  Still contemplating grabbing a single for Philly

I agree - First time this happened to me so I think its isolated.

I met a bunch of people but didn't really attach forum names to real names.  I had a floppy green hat on and shades.
