5/17 Asheville salvage station

5/18 Asheville salvage station

5/19 Wilmington NC

 

i was just told we are doing the Asheville ones even though the weekend before jubilee……The only reason I’d contemplate it right before we head out the Thursday after for jubilee is I’m guessing our non jubilee Carolina’s friends will likely be in attendance.

I'm thinking of doing Asheville and Wilmington. Whitney wants to show the baby off to the her Illinois friends. Those places are outdoors and we could bring the kids. Have sober family time and keep those damn head phones on the little one. Then just camp in NC and TN before heading to Jubilee. But we will see. I just saw the announcement and have to run it by whitney

Jonathan would be a terror at 10pm. He can’t stay up that late. If the Asheville were at 6 then maybe but no way we’d have any fun as he goes where he wants and we’d have to follow. Luckily your kids stay put.

Nice we get a local Nashville show on Tuesday pre jubilee. Pop the short 280 mile round trip post work and be in bed by 230am. Boom. 

Just saw that one pop up - Nice!

We may be able to pull off 6 of 7 shows.  Asheville x2, Nashville then 3 jubilee. Luckily my mom is begging to keep boss baby as she has to go to a graduation on Memorial Day weekend so she can grab him Asheville weekend and her parents jubilee. The Nashville will be a babysitter from 5p-2a as it’s an up and back on Tuesday but man that’s sorta rough considering we are leaving Thursday early am. The day after a night drive home is harder and harder as the years catch up and having to eat ADD meds to pull off the overnight drive. Then pack Wednesday then hit the road the next day. I was gonna just pass on Asheville and do Nashville and Jub but that made momma bear mad and gotta keep her from being grizzly so we will see.

I thought the design was far from ideal. Massive complex but the dance floor was too small when we saw Phil and friends there. Nashville is a good spot to see him with the plethora of fantastic musicians there. We could find no space and it wasn’t sold out. We did bowl a game before the show which was fun and got to watch a minor league game from the smoking deck. What sucks was the game made all parking expensive and a 5 block walk. It had one of the smaller dance areas I’ve seen. Is it even 40x30’ on the floor?

Maybe I need to look at it again. It’s 1200 capacity which includes bowling and 2nd floor. With deadheads 1200 capacity means 400 deadheads feels packed

I saw Sierra Ferrell there for NYE a couple years ago, sold out, and there was plenty of space even with the floor and mezzanine levels packed and no one bowling once the show started. But I hope its perfect for the band and for your dancing needs.

The last time DSO played Madison theater in Covington, KY, it was so packed and oversold I literally couldn't move or dance and I thought it was a deathtrap, so that is kinda the standard measure i use

We are staying in Brevard which is around 45 mins south with a friend so we prob will just hit the show and back each night 

 

Enjoy your stay, the hosts are first rate.

 

Praise DSO.

For those heading to NC this weekend, be safe, have an absolute blast, and take a twirl or 2 for me!  Gutted to miss the music and hugging my tribe - those 2 things together are one of my favorite 1-2 punches in life.  My wife and I are celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary (25 years together) this weekend!

 

Me missing NC DSO shows is a good amazing omen for everyone else - trust me on this one!

Happy anniversary. Are you saying that when you miss a NC show, they bust out  a show you wish you wouldn’t have missed?

I got no inside intel on what they are planning on doing.  Missed 2 69 shows and an elective containing a Low Spark + a Visions of Johanna - so yes.
