I have never been to Vermont.  $330 round trip from Louisville to Burlington...

[joey_rogo]

Now I am confused. It says Midway LAWN. However, they do have a big stage with seats and such also on the property. The big stage might not be GA. I needs me some GA.

just noticed it says chairs and blankets are ok. they wouldnt say that if there were already chairs to sit in 8-)

2 and 1/2 hour drive from johnnYYac's house!  Right up I-89!   :D

[johnnYYac]

This is a seating chart for the Expo Center.  I'm not finding info on a LAWN setup.

[joey_rogo]

we'll find out tomorrow. presale tickets go on sale at 11. (which is why im kinda surprised this hasnt been officially announced yet)

I miss Vermont. I'm already heading upto NE this summer, so this show is out.

[FiddleCastro]

Calling it: New York City show around 8/23.

are you a big petty fan? if not, i'd skip one of the petty shows. i'm a huge wilco fan, and i saw them open for neil young. if i had gone for wilco i would have been severely disappointed.

"Located at the Champlain Valley Exposition in Essex Junction, the Midway Lawn is a new venue that culminates a beautiful grassy lawn flanked by mature trees, landscaping, and a view of the Green Mountains."

I think that stage is a completely different venue on the same property.

Gurlington is only the second best city in New England, next to Portland of course!  Summer shows in btown rule, usually good weather, very nice peeps and healthy, beautiful women.  Make sure you check out the Church St. Market and Full Tank for all your necessities!
