Looking for a ticket for Friday night....figured this weekend would be enough, silly me. Unfortunately, it's sold out. Let me know if anyone has an extra to sell.

For those who were there last year - what's the scouting report on the Ga. Theater?

How's sound on the rail? (For the record, this would be one one real gripe against the Peel - the PA mains are way out to the sides, and the one little speaker wedge they had up front was basically inaudible in the middle of the rail).

Any thing special I needed to know about getting in? Just the standard line up?

How good is the climate control? Forecast doesn't look too bad - mid 80's but still.

Any good new restaurants in Athens? My last visit was Jan 2011.

We thought the GA. Theater was top notch, all around. We were center rail last year and I thought the sound was phenomenal. Big ass fans...similar to The Peel. As far as restaurants go... I'm not really aware of anything special that is new but Craig did take us to a little hole in the wall Tai place that was excellent. Can't remember the name now but it is right up the hill and across the street from Toppers...teh strip club which apparently I did make note of. :lol:

Anyway, see ya there!

As a guess, Flicker.

If I do any, I'll be pre-gaming at The Roadhouse. Not that anyone gives a shit where I'll be, but if you're looking for a bar to hang out in, it's very close, it's dark and dirty like I like my bars, and it's usually got a fantastic playlist.

I have 2 tickets for each night I can't use, I really need to sell them. I also have a room for Thurs and Fri night at the Indigo from Hotwire. I payed about $90 a night but would take less than that. I know hotwire is nonrefundable but maybe the Indigo would transfer the reservation.

psychobillycadillac · Thu Aug 23, 2012 12:00 pm

About two more hours here in the office then I'm headed home to grab the misses and haul ass to the Classic City! Looking forward to seeing some of y'all tonight before and after the show, I'll have my black Heathens t-shirt on. Say hey if you see us

Day Two in Athens

Craig's show last night was alsum! Had about fifteen 3DDer's at The Flicker last night. That place is a neat little venue and the bartender has a Polish catering business. Had I known that ahead of time I would have put in an order for pierogies.

Awesome, Rev!

Any talk of a stream tonight?

26 Mile Drive · Post by **26 Mile Drive** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 2:29 pm

2 extras to the friday rock show, broke my rib rafting in Colorado and can't make it. I can call and change the name or whatever I have to do if anyone needs them, consider these on the house but remember me in the future, and ROCK ONE HARD FOR ME!

Safe Travels.....

Gaetzi · Post by **Gaetzi** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 3:57 pm

That's a really generous offer, 26 Mile Drive! Sorry to hear about the ribs....

Hope everyone has a blast tonight!!

sloansimpson · Post by **sloansimpson** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 6:12 pm

The only tapers I know of so far are myself and Mark Lynn. I don't have streaming capability, not sure if Mark does, but I'd say probably no stream.

Rotgut Moonshine · Post by **Rotgut Moonshine** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 9:35 pm

Can't wait to hear how tonight's show goes. Tomorrow night, the doors are coming off!

Hud · Post by **Hud** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 10:11 pm
