PHILLY Roll Call!!

[jrod00]

I was at the venue last night. Small and if you want a seat would get there early. Very close to the band. If you have will call need to get them on the river next to the fairy.

So there are seats at this place?  Any more info on that?  Is it GA right up against the stage a la Festival Pier? Or is it seated right up front?  Or are the seats just further back?  I want to be right up front and I do not want to be seated.  

No seats. Front rail should be a short distance from the actual stage, like festival pier.

Parking all along Columbus Blvd.

Sweet.  I met you before the Festival Pier show, right?  Are you getting there early to get up front?  

I'll be there.

As shall I.

Where is everyone headed? I would love to meet everybody. I'm dragging someone to their first jacket show so I have to make it memorable (As if that won't happen)

Still trying to figure all the details out ...there was mention of meeting up at the Abbaye?  Not sure of exactly where it is, but I think a few folks on here are familiar with it... we will set something up for sure!

Ok Awesome! Can't wait to meet everyone.

Khyber is closed for renovation

Well that just sucks :( I was hyped about the short walking distance from the Khyber to the venue. I'm bringing roughly 4 family members to their 1st Jacket show & I'm not sure they'll be down for a 20 min walk to (& back to get cars) from the show.

We're tossing the idea around of going to Mac's Tavern in Olde City before the show. There are several of us who are HUGE "It's Always Sunny in Philly" fans so it would be pretty sweet to party it up before the show at a bar that's owned by a few of the cast members. Just an idea we had

If anyone is looking for hotels for that night, I just got the 4-star Hyatt Regency @ Penns Landing for $70.00 through Priceline!!  8-)

I was hoping for the Hyatt, since it's real close to the Riverstage,but never thought a $70.00 bid would get it done. It's $197.00 on Hyatt's site.

Booze will be flowing now that there's no driving after the show! ;)

Hey Eric!!  We just did the SAME thing and got the same rate!!!!  NICE!

Any and all are welcome to meet us here for a freshen up, cocktail, and planning session!  

wooooooooo hoooooooooo

637 N 3rd St
Philadelphia, PA 19123

We just booked a room at the Hyatt Regency at Penn's Landing (priceline) $70!  
Feel free to stop by for a cocktail and planning session!  PM me if you want my number, and you can txt me that day!  Cannot wait!
But don't park in their Lot -- it's $21 and from what I see in earlier posts you can park on Columbus.

Way to go Trish!!  ;D  

They told me the Riverstage is pretty much right behind the hotel, a couple of minute walk at most.

I'll see you and Bob there, and then we can figure out a game plan.  

Can't wait for what is bound to be an epic show with a roaring Philly crowd.

[headhunter]

so very psyched for the show and counting down the days!

[deathstick]

Gonna be a great meetup and an awesome show! Can't wait......this week is the only thing I've been looking forward to for a while now.

Exactly, tried to post the address last night but had interweb connection issues. Thx YouAre!! :)

Apparently they've fixed up the joint a bit since Skinner's. Removed the gross booths & spruced things up a bit. There have even been some random sightings of Mac & Sweet Dee!

Gosh, you scream like that in the car and nobody's going to give you a ride...

[ynwa]

after the glorious night @ champlain valley & then the soooo good but what a fucking tease opening set for TPATH, i am seriously reconsidering my initial 'pass' & heading down to the philly show.

it's a few hrs drive from where i live & i have to be @ work by 7am the next moring.  by no means am i the rock star i once was with the ability to function properly on such little sleep.  but i think i can suck it up.  it would have to be a sober show for me but i hardly call that a problem.

90% there, & if so also 90% sure it will be a solo trek.

[LongDong]

Hello all,

Ants in my pants waiting for this show...weather is supposed to be spectacular as well.  

Little help please.  Can anyone tell me if there is a tailgate lot before the show or is it different than last year? Otherwise - I'll be at the bar with the rest of you.

Thanks in advance.

My face has already started to melt,

Nickjam
