Charlottesville Sat. 4/16!

[bgmckinney]

For everyoe packing for Charlottesville make sure you throw a poncho in the bag. We might get DBT in the rain Saturday night.

Nothing is going to rain on my parade I say Mother Nature BRING IT ON!!!!

That will only guarantee that Petterson plays "Tornadoes", so it's all good.

Exactly

So what's a reasonable time to arrive at Plan 9 for the in-store? Anyone have experience seeing them there before? I'd hate to be stuck outside...

Be there by 1:00 to be sure of getting in

Will do, thanks. Time to offer my god of northern virginia traffic another shot of rum.

The weather - not that it matters really, but Weather.com shows that the major storm is hitting during the Plan 9 show (says 1pm - 3pm Severe Weather) and that after that, the chance of rain drops big-time. Either way, 'tis gonna be sweet, but if the weather folks know a thing or two, then there's a decent chance the outside action's gonna be dry in time for the Pavilion show.

Gotta bring gifts for the Gods, right!? Funeral pyre and all that jazz. They're gonna burn it down, so we need to toss some of life's greatest treasures into the flames! I'm probably mixing a few metaphors there, but I'm just too damned excited to edit my own gibberish.

A friend sent this to me and I thought Id pass this along.....
If anyone could get this message to Patterson she will be forever grateful.
Thank you so much!!!!~

"Good morning to all the peeps and furry ones in the swamp!
Today is the day for the DBT adventure here in my hometown. It is sadly the anniversary of a dear friend's death for which my friends and his parents(owners of a local Richmond bike shop) have planned a memorial weekend starting last night with a party and memorial at a local biker bar here in town and winding up with all his friends and loved ones seeing the DBT show tonight in Charlottesville(some friends have flown in from far away even as not to miss the Travis/DBT memorial show...I wonder if there is ANYway we could ask the band to play People Who Died and dedicate it to Travis Clemens and his family and friends...he was 29 and killed in an accident that fashions plastic flowers on the highway...its why the DBT mean so much to all of us...Stephen is sending a message to Wes but I thought of you first....any way to reach the powers that be? thanks so much,Ma "

Mrs S, if you have the cell # of anyone attending this afternoon's in store, i'd try to contact them by phone or text w/ this request. The in-store's probably the best place to try to get any of the band members' attention and it's not all that likely that anyone attending the 2 shows today will see this post until too late. Good luck!

Does anybody know the set times for the Whigs and DBT tonight? I have no idea what time to get there. I presume they'll be starting earlier than their typical time since noise ordinances should be in effect.

[Rocky]

Time for a setlist update?

[Flea]

Opened with Tornados.

Closed with Buttholeville.

Zip City was played. Beers were consumed.

That's about the best i can do.

What better way to say hello HeAthens and introduce myself to the board than to say hello to my friend Cousin Flea!

[Flea]

Do not trust Jubie.

He is a very bad person.

Cooley would give him a wedgie.

And it would be welcomed.

As for Cousin Flea...don't know why I put up with his shit...

[greendirtgirl]

I have to get a copy of this show...the band dedicated Let There Be Rock to our friend, Travis Clemens on the tenth year anniversary of his death...thanks to Mrs Swamp and the powers that be in DBTville...half of our group of friend missed it due to some really wasted chick that was yelling the wrong words at Cooley during Zip City (myself included) I was having to be assertive and stand my ground literally to not let her wait til the encore to push in front of me with absolutely no where to go as I was in fact the second row. Soooo I really wanna hear the begining of LTBR uniterrupted ofcourse... twas great show...stellar setlist. The whole night really meant the world to Trav's friends and family. Sincere thanks to all that made it happen. Long live the rock show and in it's glory,the People Who've Died.

[Jonicont]

Yeah--Opened with Tornadoes--Thanks to Big Tom for the photo

Did y'all notice that the Hat Guy from the DC shows in Feb. was in attendance?

What a night last night, for me, for the wrong reasons. At least 3 confirmed tornadoes on the ground within 15 miles, and another that came within 30 miles that killed 10 people. Scary stuff.

[CooleyGirl]

Great show! High energy, even though it was the last night of this leg and I'm sure everyone was ready to go home. They rocked it and said at the in-store they'd play rain or no rain. There was no barrier, which is always nice. However, the stage was so tall I felt like a 5 year old. Cooley and Shonna got laughing when they walked out and caught a glimpse of me, about all the could see (I imagine) was my eyes! I jumped up to wave hi, it was pretty funny. Thankfully, the crowd was pretty mellow. There were the usual attempts at the end of the night of people trying to move up, but nothing too crazy. That was really good, as UR pointed out, if it had gotten rough, one good shove into that concrete wall and we could have lost a tooth.

It was great catching up with 3dd folks, as always. It makes an already fun DBT show that much more enjoyable.

The in-store was a blast as well. It was pretty packed in there. It was super cute because there was a row of little kids right up front watching intently who sang along to Everybody Needs Love. There was also a girl in a green DBT shirt with a pink guitar and cowboy boots that was just adorable. Next generation of fans?

I don't have pics from the in-store but do have some from the show itself. I'm still working on the ones from Lexington and Bloomington, but will share them all as soon as I can. Thankfully, the ride back to CT today was uneventful and we made it back in 7 ish hours but I'm still a little beat and not looking forward to work tomorrow. Oh well, I shouldn't complain, I'm grateful to have a job.
