I don't think that price is out of line at all. Considering it's in Levon's home studio that seats maybe 150 people. Fucking Peter Gabriel is getting 200 face value at Radio City without drums or a guitar! I mean it ain't cheap but I don't think it's outrageous. It's gonna be badass!

I'm sure it's going to be amazing. Definitely a special show. If there was any way at all I'd do it but it's not happening. I'll live vicariously through those that attend.

If anyone is considering going but has not bought a ticket yet, please send me a pm asap. If you have 5 people or more, the ticket price is 125 instead of 150. This is a ton of money for us but we really want to go and 300 for the 2 of us would be quite steep, though I'm sure it would be worth it. We think we have 1 friend who will go, so if there are 2 more people out there, please let me know.

150 is actually not that bad for his Midnight Ramble. When he first started they were in the $500 range I have heard. Now I might be wrong, but I think a good amount of the ticket price goes to charity. Would love to be able to make this, or make one Midnight Ramble, regardless of whether DBT is there. Just sounds like a fun time.

hell yeah, Lurleen!!

bold99 got a ticket, too....

is anyone staying in a hotel up there? i thought about going to the Tarrytown show on Fri night then getting a hotel room Fri and Sat night----there are a bunch on the the Ramble site but wondered if anyone had a good recommendation? Mt Jam is an impossibility at this point.

So are we all bringing Levon a birthday cake or WHATTTTTT!???

I am doing Mountain Jam but hopping over to Levon's place Saturday night to see the Midnight Ramble. Midnight Ramble is only 28 miles from Mountain Jam. Staying at the Hunter Inn at Mountain Jam.

No cameras allowed either, you can't bring a camera in, they said on the site they won't let you. Sorry there will not be pictures either.
