I hope I get decent seats. If I don't, i might not even go. Once you get too high(elevation wise....) in the Bowl, the sound dramatically fads away and when songs start, people around you sit down and no one sings or dances its no fun

    Contrast to CHula- fabulous food, hardly any lines during the shows due to many beverage choices....

    But oh man- can't wait!

    Seriously, that's why we need us Ants to take over this year...i'm so used to dancing at shows and when I went to Hollywood Bowl I was disappointed in the majority of the crowd that was sitting down.

    That said- I will so be there

    I didnt think so either. I had upper seats last year and the acoustics were kind of blah, until I made my way down aways and then it sounded incredible. I wonder why they decided on the two nighter...?

    I'm REALLY surprised that not only they picked to play at the Bowl again, but they are playing TWO nights there to end the tour. Wow. I thought, FOR SURE, after last year's debacle there that they would pick another So Cal venue. Lets face it - the incredibly long beer and bathroom lines, the impossible parking/traffic, and the "vertical" nature of the venue (the back 1/4 of seats seem to be 1/2 mile from the band) dont really make a great concert. In fact, last year's concert was the most disappointing DMB concert I've been to.

    The Bowl's vibe is very laid-back...definitely not conducive to a high-energy rock concert. That being said, I'll probably attend one show. Now the question is - do i attend the first one, or the tour closer? Decisions decisions.

    I say that if you are choosing to see just one night, hit night 2. See Vegas for proof of that. Or check any two night stand from last years tour. N2, tyipcally, is the better of the two.

    I know I haven't heard the greatest reviews of Hollywood Bowl, but, I'm going to go anyway and make the best of what's around. We have to get a good Ants party going before the shows and ride that wave!

    greetings from rehab

    first off - fuck you all.

    i am furious that those assclowns DMB for playing 2 nights at the bowl. i must pass this venue on the way home from work each day. my 6 mile commute can take 2 hours. fuck fuck fuck.

    next up, to all the folks who are crying about DMB playing the bowl (not the traffic, cry about that all ya want) - please make toast in the bathtub. with the exception of maybe the greek - the hollywood bowl is hands down the best fucking outdoor venue in los angeles. great place to see a show. even the back seats are not bad compared to lets say glen helen or irvine. sure, the crowds tend to be mellow, but it's because they are so fucking stoned. be honored you get to see your washed up band in such a great venue.

    so, with that rant out of the way, who has my miracle?

    I think the pregame for these shows will make them even better. I agree with you that the pregame is 50% of the concert expierence.

    I have to agree. I was disappointed in HB last year- mainly because of the venue.Impossible food and drink lines, uncomfortable seats, after having been at Chula I was shocked at how bad a venue it was. The stage set up was beautiful....but people around me seemed to be there because it was THE ticket- and mine was a Warehouse seat. There were lots of empty seats around me and lots of people just sitting.

    Hello all,

    My fiance and I have decided to do a DMB honeymoon. We get married Sept. 2nd, but the band takes a break right after The Gorge, so we're going to delay our honeymoon until later in the month to maximize our DMB Road Trip. We're going to hopefully start in The Woodlands and then we'll hit the next 7 shows, so the shows at Hollywood Bowl will be our 7th and 8th. But we're in unfamiliar venue territory....we're normally Bonner Springs, Alpine, Chicago venue people. I was hoping some of you would be kind enough to help with any info you can give about good places to stay close to the venue, tailgating or bars around the venue....info like that. It's not your typical honeymoon, but how often do you get to follow a band around for 12 days? Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks!!

    Don't have to much to offer yo here. LA is weird in where you stay. You can stay close the venue, in downtown or Hollywood. Or by the beach in Santa Monica or Malibu. Or somewhere between, like Beverly Hills. Either way, you are going to be driving and sitting in traffic.

    I have not been to the Bowl, but do know from others that the venue is good, not great. The closer to the stage, the better. Parking is shit. There is a curfew, so the show will end no later then 11 each night. The fine for going over is insane.

    Everyone here is stunned that HB is getting 2 nights. The consensus here was that after last years show was that the band would not return to the Bowl. So maybe the band likes it more then we thought. Either way, this the tour closer so people will be looking at these shows for something special.

But we're in unfamiliar venue territory....we're normally Bonner Springs, Alpine, Chicago venue people. I was hoping some of you would be kind enough to help with any info you can give about good places to stay close to the venue, tailgating or bars around the venue....info like that. It's not your typical honeymoon, but how often do you get to follow a band around for 12 days? Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks!!
    i hope this helps you out. first off, while probably somewhat expensive, you could stay at hollywood & highland. it's about 1/2 mile down the hill from the bowl.

    http://www.hollywoodandhighland.com/...ywoodhotel.php

    this hotel is about one LONG block from the bowl.

    staying at these two venues also helps you avoid the dreaded bowl traffic.

    as far as drinking goes, check out powerhouse across highland blvd from the first hotel. dive bar, but decent drinks that will fuck you up. the bowl also has a few places to picnic. for the bowl series shows (which DMB is not part of) you can actually bring booze into the show w/ you. i brought a 6 pack in last year for willie nelson.

    hope this helps (and i really mean that).

    I am gonna try and make it these. It'd be my 40th & 41st shows as well. It's definitely not for sure yet, but hopefully I can.
