    Blossom: technically no tailgating but everyone does - just keep it cool. if you get there late or have to park by the street you will have a very long walk to the pavilion area. I think sound is not as good in the lawn as Riverbend.....but you don't have the giant pillars blocking your view. only concern would be sitting high up on the lawn....then the roof slop will get in your way.

    Riverbend: no tailgating at all in the main lot. do not park in coney island....horrible getting out. recommend parking in Riverdowns if it is open. take the second kellog ave exit.....exit 71 and come around from the opposite way and park in riverdowns lot on the far east side. you'll have a longer walk but well worth it after the show. i believe you can tailgate there. sound is great everywhere IMO but lawn has obstructed views due to the large pillars. after the show head back to cinci and hit up christian moerlein lager house, yard house, etc on the banks.
    I'm not a Cincy native but visit there frequently. The Banks area has really grown up over the past few years. The wife and I went to a few Reds games this past season and spent some time at a few of the locations there. It was Week 1 of the NFL season and we spent about 6 hours at the Holy Grail.

    FWIW, the Reds are home the day after DMB and the wife and I are already planning on the DMB show, staying somewhere in the area, and watching the matinee Reds game the following day.

    I'm embarrassed to say I've yet to visit Great American Ballpark...it seems like the Reds are out of town every time I'm in the Cincy area. I'm gonna try to make the game the day after the Riverbend show since they're in town. First pitch at 12:35, should make for a good day

    Anyone driving from Pittsburgh for Blossom this year? I am having trouble convincing friends it is worth the drive, and if I drive myself I would at least like to have some people to hang with and enjoy the show. I am gonna try and get pit tickets but if that fails then i will most likely be in the lawn.

    I guess it is pretty early for people not like us to know if they want to go, but the drive really does suck, especially after the show.

    I live 4 hours away from Cincinnati.. IN Virginia actually, and I attend between 2-8 games every year. I'm a big Reds fan. The Reds and DMB are what I spend most of my extra money on.

    Put in for Riverbend tickets with 30 minutes to go this morning. Was debating between Deer Creek and Cincy. My wife is pregnant (and the one who usually goes to the shows with me) so it kind of leaves some question marks for this summer. Wish Cincy was a weekend, but I thought one show is all I can swing financially. I almost didn't do any shows, but I just don't want to miss out on this summer.

    I have pending charges for Blossom, Deercreek and Burgettstown. Looks like things are starting to come together. Hotels booked several weeks ago Thanks to an early leak! It will be a great summer. I'm Just waiting to see the Charge for Riverbend and it will make the perfect summer. I'm glad to see I can catch a Reds game the day after the show before heading back to Cbus.

    Weird that Belterra got the property with Hollywood and Horseshoe owning Ohio.

    I can see a hit for Riverbend Pavillion tickets now on my CC. First pick was for Pit, they approved my second pick. Hopefull I am not way back in the rear or the sides. I managed to get decent seats last year at normal ticket release date.

    Same price, so how do you know they approved your second pick?

    I requested 3 tickets total. It was listed 2 for pit or 3 for pavillion. CC charges show for Pavillion price total unless they give me 3 pit.

    Confirmed Pavilion for Riverbend!
    Really wanted to go last year, but my son was born on June 27th and I was still recovering when the show rolled around (I think it was July 12th..?)

    I miss Blossom, but we won't be able to make it this year... maybe next year.
