So pumped they are making a stop in Oregon. Does anyone have any hotel recommendations that are close to the amphitheater?

    Springhill Suites is a good option.

    I have a room reserved at the "My Place Hotel" via hotels.com. They didn't have any other rooms close by (walkable to the venue). It was like $180 after taxes and fees. (refundable up to 8/27)

    Does anyone remember how quickly this venue sold out last time? I know it's pretty small.

    It seemed to go fairly quickly in 2014 especially the public sale, at 8000 "seats" it's bound to go quick especially given the hiatus in 2017

    My wife and I are flying in to PDX on Sunday. Hit some breweries and wineries Sunday and Monday. Float on the river Monday or Tuesday, and hit some more breweries and wineries. See the show. Head to Seattle on Wednesday. Head to Gorge on Thursday. My first time to Bend. Heck, I'm drinking a Deschutes Black Butte Porter as I type this.

    Really wish I could make this show but the mid-week thing just isn't going to happen for me this year.

    If I recall, the venue is all standing room only so go early and line up if you want to get close.

    As for lodging, every time I've gone to Bend for a show, I've camped at Tumalo State Park. It's outside of town but definitely doable.

    Confirmed! Never been to Bend so I’m incredibly stoked. Will probably dirtbag it up at Smith Rock for a couple days beforehand, see the show, then head to the Gorge. Can’t wait!! We should try and organize an Ants brewery crawl or something.

    Interesting, I also heard from several friends having no luck with public sale.
    I am very happy with the warehouse for hooking me up with this show.

    Bend, round 2! We can't wait for our second Bend show, this time we're arriving in town several days early so we can beer and adventure for a few days before the show. We wished we had done that last time... Got an AirBnB reserved down by the river, between the venue and the old downtown. Definitely check out the AirBnB options if you haven't booked accommodations yet, you can usually get a full apartment for the same price as a hotel.

    With how quick Bend sold out this year, it’d be sweet if the band took notice and in future years made Bend a two-night stand as kind of an official Gorge warmup. Hey, one can dream...

    Bend thread isn't getting any love! Looking forward to seeing DMB at a new venue this year. Have only seen them at the Gorge before. Camping in Bend Tuesday/Wednesday, then driving up Thursday for the Gorge

    I am going to have extra Warehouse Pits for several west coast shows.
    I will find out specifics this week. Possibly Bend, Gorge, & Tahoe.

    I am busy traveling between now and when the tickets will arrive in Oregon,
    so I am hoping to find buyers attending the Bend show to avoid rushed shipping.
    Stay tuned...

    if it's anything like 2014, the whole venue is GA. so there is a "pit" per se, but the earlier you show up, the closer you'll be!
