OFFICAL: Merriweather Post Pavilion Tailgate

[deathstick]

I am here....with you guys....at the tent!!

are you the kid wearing the bluish colored shirt?

nope, that weren't me. I was wearing an Against Me! shirt.

Thanks to JD and everyone else for their warm hospitality and for an awesome time!!!! An almost 5 hour ride back to CT with an hour nap in between and I barely made it!!

Thank you so much for hooking us up with the poster!!!!

not a problem at all, it was my pleasure!! Glad I got the extra tube cause all four weren't fitting in the tube I had!

Yes, thanks to jdbartender for putting it together...great to meet those of you I hadn't yet met and see those of you I had. I'm still wondering how I ended up with more beer than I showed up with, though!

Jared thanks for putting the tailgate together.  What a great group of people.  It was one of those special moments......the weather, the music, Jimbo's bubba burgers, the bagpipes, the flag!, the derby,the show, and then Sean from Boston chasing the domino's delivery guy at 1am.  The show was amazing.....Jim was out of control.......I have to say that "Dancefloors" was absolutely, completely insane..........we have some tailgate pics that we will post once we get unpacked.......back to reality, until the next show.

What a great time!  That is what is all about.

I am so glad that I got the opportunity to meet all of you and I am looking forward to the next time we all cross paths again.

The show was amazing, the people were amazing, and the weather was as good as it gets!

Thanks to everyone for making the tailgate so special... See you all soon I am sure.  :)

Hey Everyone! Great time on Saturday. Cool tailgate. Nice to meet everyone. Good to see this show up on the archive already!

I mentioned this over in Tapings, but the tape of this show is incredible.  Like retarded good.  So jealous of you MPP'ers - the setlist was amazing, the songs are played at their best (see Steam Engine), and then having this kind of sound on the recording...you are lucky punks.   :P

Thanks for the Jagerbomb, I think?!

Thanks for the Jagerbomb, I think?!

Hahaha.. People seemed to enjoy them!  

You know what is funny... Everyone was freaking out about how hard it would be to tailgate.

The lot was open all day and I didn't see a SINGLE cop or security guard... Not a single one - all day.

I didn't either. I feel like I didn't hang out for all that long, some chick gave me a brownie and I just wandered around for a while...

Agreed, the scene was awesomely mellow.   Coming from a life of tailgating at Great woods / Tweeter / Comcast in Boston, it was fantasticly relaxed.  And free parking?!  mindblowing.

I think it was funny that when you and we got there we were the only two cars there (sorry for that tour of Columbia by the way).   I didn't know you from Adam but when you started unpacking and getting your shit out I said to Sean "I hope that's JDbartender from the board because he's not messing around over there".    Pretty funny coincidence.

Yeah that is funny...  What a great day!  I didn't mind be the first ones there - more fun for us  ;D

 And free parking?!  mindblowing.

I expected some $7.00 parking fee as that is the usual around me, haha  ;D

Apparently it said "parking included in price" or something to that respect on the ticket. Still, really awesome... but I walked over so, whatevs
