How Do You Do? Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 I'm in!! Also for Indy the next night. Egyptian room not my favorite, but my son lives in Indy and hopefully he'll be able to go,too. Springfield is the best (next to the jubilee). Glad its back! Am trying to arrange schedule so that I can make Kalamazoo. I live half way between K-zoo and Springfield. I see that K-zoo is acoustic show as it was the last time there. Safe travels for all.

Every year after after same routine...they won't last long lol, never did. No worries about making good showing...look around during middle second set...wow...give 5 bucks for the local charity...show is free! If you know how check out my more contemporaneous comments on this venue. Rambling I know but excited for Tues Quote Link to comment

See you beautiful people there Did you tell her she's prob got a 15-20% chance of one? But then again thats why we keep coming back. These current pop artists and even solid artists from the 70s and 80s have the same setlist night after night. I've wanted to see the pixies for years but was looking at their setlists night after night and are identical except for a 1-2 songs. How could u follow them. But the good news is I just want to see them once. I've been in my deadhead type bubble for a while. Pretty much dead or panic is all I've seen for 3 years. It's my safe space. I'm a dead snowflake. Seeing van Morrison in September may be strange. His music has a definite dance groove similar in ways to the dead's beat, but man I don't want 50 people videoing me dancing. That's not an issue at any GD related show but do that where half the people will have their phones out and I'm afraid I'll become a meme. Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted June 25, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Van Morrison way more mellow groove to me. I'm excited for this gig. Long time since we been to Springfield. We drive through Dayton that day and we will drive through Dayton that night. If you still need a ride get in touch. Quote Link to comment

Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted June 25, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Is that what it said in years past? We've always brought are own drinks and food to the event. I guess it's time for a red solo cup. Quote Link to comment

Amd on a bright note, the weather looks epic. Clear skies with Mid-high 60s at showtime and finishing at around 60 degrees. Can't ask for more perfect conditions for an outdoor show.
