    Apparently some Gorge pit tickets popped up on Livenation last night. For those of you still looking for tickets (or to upgrade) keep an eye out. Livenation always drop tickets at random times.

    Me too!! I've always wanted to be at the beach while it's snowing. My parents have a place in Rockaway Beach so that was practically my second home growing up and I have still NEVER seen snow on the beach.

    Backpacked the Olympic Peninsula Coast one December and woke up to snow on Shi-Shi Beach. That was awesome! Snow at the tide line

    Updated Terrace list - would be great to expand the list and add some party favors (I'm being really ambiguous here)

    Eventually this list will be moved to Google docs for everyone to update, but trying to draw attention to our cause at the moment!



    2012 GTFO - 2012 Gorge Terrace Folks that are Ornery
    ------------------

    TommydCat + Wife....arriving Thursday afternoon
    bringing: (good booze, cigars, trades negotiable ), semi-portable generator, xbox if someone has a big TV/projector (rock band, anyone? karoake? don't want concert sound levels but background for folks to hang)

    drue22 + 1 (Official Banner-General)
    bringing: Banners! (Look for the Gonzaga flags)

    bigwolt + wife


    ctdmber + wife


    Phulish + wife


    btaff222 + maybe 1


    kope0043 + 3....arriving Friday


    draven33 + wife


    jeffbabich


    ------------------
    1. Please enlist if you're camping in the Terrace! (You must have a Terrace Camping pass (+ wristband) to enter the Terrace.. Security enforces this...)
    2. Because of this I suggest that GTFO GTFO's of Terrace at some point to visit our brothers and sisters in Premiere and Regular
    3. It'll be great to meet you guys, and nice to park nearby in having people around to look out for each other, and sending a warm vibe for people to mingle
    4. Bringing anything of note to share in a party atmosphere? Add it to the list!

    Definitely bringing good wine to drink and trade; also might bring some for sale if any one is interested - my mother is raising money climb Mt. Kilimanjaro with the charity organization Summit for Someone, we both work at wineries and have a stock of custom labeled Kilimanjaro Wine!!
    I'm considering packing the Weber and doing some grilling...
    Also, most likely to arrive Thursday afternoon.

    No worries mate. You'll be in good company! We should devise the same list. I had suggested a while ago the idea of having an ants camp in premier. Let's do this thang!

    I know it is cliche to say by now, but there is not a bad seat there.. Last year the VIP was set up in the back by the sound boards and the view was great and the music was better! That area would correlate with the very rear reserved paviliion section, so you will really enjoy it no matter where you are stuck in reserved.

    That being said, if you really want to be up close and don't mind the mob in the Pit, that is a great experience.. Being a warehouse member since day 4, I have been fortunate enough to see them from the 2nd and 3rd rows (before the days of the pit) and it was amazing seeing all of the nuances that go into the concert...

    I know that I am really looking forward to having a seat before the concert and having a spot that is mine...ALL MINE... The caravan made for some long and tiring days on your feet!!! With LONG walks back to the Wildhorse bus! Either way, you will have a blast and it will be a life changing experience!

    Thanks for the info dankevork, yeah...those caravan shows were long and brutal (and dirty in AC) but worth every minute when the show's started, i was within 10 rows from the stage for all 7 east coast shows...it was my first time seeing them that close and i'll never forget the experience i had, after each of the 3rd shows my legs and feet were in pretty bad shape.

    Am i right in assuming it wont be as bad for a "non-caravan" pit experience because your not standing there ALL day long? do you know what time they usually open the gates at the venue? is there a long line of people waiting to get into the pit before hand?

    ------------------
    1. Please enlist if you're camping in the Terrace! (You must have a Terrace Camping pass (+ wristband) to enter the Terrace.. Security enforces this...)
    2. Because of this I suggest that GTFO GTFO's of Terrace at some point to visit our brothers and sisters in Premiere and Regular
    3. It'll be great to meet you guys, and nice to park nearby in having people around to look out for each other, and sending a warm vibe for people to mingle
    4. Bringing anything of note to share in a party atmosphere? Add it to the list!
    Actually, I think we're going to be coming in Thursday night. We'll fly into Seattle Thursday afternoon/evening. Since we bought Terrace camping, no reason to spend money on a hotel room in Seattle. We'll bring as much good beer as our rental car can handle. We make our own but it's going to be tough to get it there on a plane....

    I will be arriving Thursday afternoon as well. Flying out from the East Coast so I will be picking up everything on the drive out from Seattle. Will be happy to bring, pick up, or get a little extra of anything anyone needs. My e-mail is btaff202@gmail for the google doc. Only 169 days left!

    Coming from the east coast, those needs will likely coincide with my own

    Am i right in assuming it wont be as bad for a "non-caravan" pit experience because your not standing there ALL day long? do you know what time they usually open the gates at the venue? is there a long line of people waiting to get into the pit before hand?
    To answer your first question reserve vs. pit it really depends on where the reserve seats are located because half of the outer sections are obstructed view and on the outer aisles you can barely see maybe 2-3 members if that. Pit is relatively small when all things are considered since its the first 15 rows of reserves. So even if you stand back by the barricade you are techincally "seating" in row 15. Can't beat that. Gorge pit is pretty chill and if you get there just as the opener hits you should only be about 10 rows back from the stage. If you line up around 12ish you can probably get rail, if you just want to be 5 rows back just get there 30 minutes before gates open. Gates open usually 2 hours before showtime.
