How hard is it??


Go back in every SPAC thread for :

Warehouse confirmation Day


On sale dates


or look at the sheer numbers of ISO threads for SPAC


no DMB tour this year has many people planning a trip. SPAC is the place to be.


Good luck, I already have my tickets

    Its in a state park

    It has a balcony making it very "small" and intimate

    Dave loves it there

    Never done Ballfest but we might try it out, seems like a good time. Kind of embarrassed to say, but I had never even heard of it.
    Only place in entire park where you can't be busted for drinking

The children/families are introduced and presented with gifts at Ballsfest. Frank, a cancer survivor himself, started it all, choses the beneficiaries and they are introduced on the FB page prior to Ballsfest.

    It's really something else... definitely stops and makes you think... gets you choked up. Touching.

    It's a great fundraiser and well worth it. I would recommend it to everybody.
    All you can eat, drink... music. Good times.

    yeah, she's verbose as fuck

    somehow we'd just never make it to bed and go to the show, sleep at 1 PM
