Thanks!

Free alcohol if you don't count tipping. Do tip. Snacky food. Cant take the alcohol outside, I don't think they cared about food, but I don't remember trying to take it out. They hand out small swag and an occasional shirt. Usually same staff and real friendly. Rashawn came up to the fence. Boyd waved. Alpine was hard to see the stage.

Boyd waved to you..... at Alpine... this year?

That’s some Twilight Zone shit I’d say.

No where was it stated that our experience was this year. It was 2015.

Yep, free beer and Dreaming Tree wine served throughout the show. The few times I've been you could take it out with you to your seats. Food is typically sandwich and veggie trays bought at a local super market and snack size bags of potato chips. The best part is the neon firedancer "friends and family lounge" sign that you can take a pic with...and the free booze.

I went one night of the Gorge in between sets. Free booze, good finger foods, and met Dave's wife through some mutual friends. Pretty cool for a minute, but I wanted to go back to the show.

I hear post-show is the time to go. Especially if they're sticking around for another night.
