What's the rate there? Sounds like a good idea. I really went to stay over, depends on the money sitch

[ALady]

Is anyone looking for a Raleigh GA/pit ticket?  PM me.

Sold.

[kydiddle]

I have a Raleigh ticket for sale. When I bought it during pre-sale, I swear it was for the pit and the ticket says "Lawn, G5 General Admission". Is that the same? Anyway. If you want it, PM me.

My vacation for that day was no approved.  :'( I will see you all at MPP.

Just seen your post!  Not sure about the rate, I used points.  I think if you go to the marriott.com web site and search for rooms there, it is usually the best price (that I have noticed in the past anyway).

dear employer,

ms. y.

Really looking forward to this one.  I can't believe they are coming to Cary!  

Jack Astors or Carolina Ale House is only a few minutes up the road.  Not the dive you are looking for, but a convenient place to drink/eat before the show.  I think Jack Astors stays open pretty late as well so maybe an after show spot too.

penguin fried pickles

oh my god

is a penguin fried pickle the same as a beer battered pickle?

Penguin is the name of the restaurant. They're deep fried in a batter of some sort. I've had fried pickles at many other places, and none compare

My mouth is watering now :D

I'll be at the Cary show! 2 weeks, 3 days and counting. Cannot get here soon enough!

[CTdeadhead]

Count me in, cant ferakin wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ms. yvon]

everyone remember to start stretching now.

i'd hate to see any of us felled by a cramp in the middle of the show.

Anyone know if they do pat downs at the gate? Initially I was thinking about packing a flask, but after reading about all the drunk ass idiots at the shows, I'm thinking about packing heat

Not in Cary, safest place in the US (seriously).  It's a family venue. Raleigh area crowds never get very rowdy anyway (a problem which has plagued my concert going experiences in NC for a decade, its getting better). Let's show the enthusiasm at this one...

I'd be 10 to 1 against any type of pat downs.  I'll be bringing a flask and maybe a 12 pack.  The quaint lakeside ampitheater makes for a very pleasant concert experience.

There definately will be pat downs . I have seen Wilco (Bon Iver opened) there, and also KOL ( I hesitate to mention them since they are not the same as they used to be, in my opinion . )

Not to worry , the parking is free and the tailgaiting area is excellent.
The drinks and beer are reasonable for a concert .

If they get the sound figured out ,( wilco was fine , KOL wanted to turn things up ) this will be special for anyone who has not been there .

thank God....this has been my number one concern. i'm planning on getting there early enough to be on the front gate in front of JJ and i dont some drunk idiot spilling beer on my back

[mlbrady89]

yeah i was there for KOL too. they wanted to crank it up but there were sound ordinances (prob because it was a tues night show), but other shows ive seen there sounded fine. great parking lot for tailgating. i always said it would be spiritual to see mmj there. nows our chance
