Ithaca, NY 11-16
Looks like a great venue for a rock show and the Felice Brothers put on a good show.
I'm in.

Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
In. Thought we might have another thread for this, but I couldn't find it. RevMatt, are you coming for this? I had in my head that you were...
Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
I am coming. I haven't bought my tickets because the website will not process an order if you use a gift card. But I don't think this one is going to sell out. I may be wrong and end up paying scalper's prices, but I plan on going.

Scalper? Did you call me a scalper? Listen, gentlemen, I perform a service here, and the service costs money.

Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
Been holding off on pulling the trigger given my four-hour drive. Frankly, I can't imagine it selling out, and hesitate to cop a cheap motel room for fear of a cancellation a la the Pennsylvania show last spring. But then, haven't been to a rock show since the Wellmont, and feel the need. Still, I've got my fingers crossed that the announcement of a NYC show before year's end will save me the schlep.

I don't think this one will be cancelled because Ithaca is a college town and college is in session. Plus, The Felice Bros. are a draw. The Scranton gig was cancelled for good reason. It was a huge theater, the show wasn't selling and there was no show the day before or the day after. Ithaca is maybe a four hour drive for me but hotels are cheaper in that part of the country.

I am in for this show. I have taken 11/17 off work so I don't have to get up early the day after the long drive home from Ithaca.

Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
I'm in for a long drive through the Catskills...and the rock show in Ithaca. Would love to meet some of you other die-hards for dinner and/or the proverbial pre-game. Please let me know of any big to-dos.

Route 17 through the Catskills is one of the most picturesque drives in the state of NY. If this show was in September instead of November I would definately bring the bike.

Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
Getting ready for a rainy drive to Ithaca. Anybody fellow travelers interesting in copping a meal before the rock show? I found what looks to be a good Thai place a black from the theater (Taste of Thai at 216 E. State Street). But there also appears to be many nearby alternatives. Let me know. See you at the rock show.
Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
I am planning on arriving early afternoon but that could change if I have another bout of insomnia tonight. I haven't scored a hotel room yet but figure there ought to be something reasonable nearby. Where is everyone else staying?

I booked the cheapest room I could find through expedia-- at the Meadow Court Inn-- for $67. It's slightly less than a mile from the venue. I just checked, and they still have rooms at that rate.

We're at the Super 8, which I think is near the Meadow Court. Just under a mile from the venue. We'll probably arrive mid-to-late afternoon. Looking forward to seeing everyone!
Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
Packing my overnight band. All I need is an oil change and I'm on the road.

Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
Nothing like seeing your favorite band with your favorite people. Alsum night. I am in the hotel room eating Mac 'n cheese and drinking a Mexican Coke. I am about to crash. Want to make sure I didn't dream it all.

I don't want to post now because I must have been dreaming. If I wake up & find out it really happened, I'll post then. Sleep tight!

Re: Ithaca, NY 11-16
Will somebody please explain what y'all are talking about? If I'm gonna be jealous, and I am, I'd really like to know why.
From the setlist alone it sounds like a killer show, but what else?
