    I'll be there! WH tix request submitted. Bummed about no Alpine of course, but I will say the past few shows at Summerfest have been very fun and better than expected sets. Plus....Saz's Sampler Platters

    Very glad this got scheduled despite a distinct lack of rumors. Hoping to pull decent tickets through warehouse but got stuck up in 300s last time so went with Citi Presale instead...

    WH request submitted as well, and I'm excited for the show! I just wish it was Alpine, but I guess can't be greedy every year.

    And those sampler platters... yes please.

    No Alpine is a real kick in the dick but I’ll be at this show. Thinking about heading straight to Deer Creek after this, just wish they were spaced out a bit more. Oh well.

    I’m thinking I’ll take my chances on public on sale/ ticket drops for Milwaukee hoping to get pit or good lowers. I seem to remember it not being crazy difficult in the months leading up to the show in 2021.

    We were thinking about driving from MN since there is nothing closer and we have never been to Summerfest before. How are the lawn seats there? I think I read that the concert tickets include Summerfest admission. And plenty of music, food and drink from noon until midnight. I know nothing else about it though.

    Lawn is just ok... not a huge lawn but has a nice view of milwaukee skyline and the sound is ok. They have new monitors that help as well. There are bleacher seats in the 300 section right in front of it that are very similar price.

    And yes, includes summerfest admission. Good food/drink options. Often when the show is over you can catch the ends of the other daily headliners. It's a fun day, come on down!

    Yeah in 2021 I bought a single lower, maybe 15th row after pit off to the side a few weeks before the show. Plenty of seats in upper reserved area by the time the show started as well.

    Temp charge for $355.90 hit this afternoon. So that means either pit or right behind it.

    You'll have no problem getting seats through CITI or even general presale. 2 years ago it was a breeze getting seats leading up to the show.

    My temp charge posted overnight, so I'm assuming that's a good sign? Warehouse still shows pending though. I haven't requested tickets since Gorge 2019 so I don't recall how this all works.

    See you in the pit! We'll stay an extra day in MKE the Friday after to explore. Besides the river walk and Fonz statue, what else would be recommended?

    Confirmed for Reserved Level 1. Only show I put in for since we're still trying to decide if other shows are doable. Looking forward to seeing the side stage announcements

    Lakefront Brewery has a super fun Friday Fish Fry (Wisconsin delicacy/ tradition). They take limited reservations. You can however, reserve Bernie Brewer’s chalet for dinner.

    The Safehouse is a great place for a fun go at drinks. And no, I will not tell you the password. The door is located in an alley downtown. Once inside, you need the password, otherwise you have to do a thing before they let you in a secret passageway.

    Renting kayaks is a fun idea. Other ideas: Lunch at the Milwaukee Public Market, walk around the 3rd Ward. Coffee at Rochambo on Brady Street. You could close Wolski’s and get a bumper sticker. Burgers at Sobelman’s. The Domes are very cool if you’re into gardening. Fly a kite at Veterans Memorial Park. Listen to jazz and drink wine on top of the Pfister. Black Cat Alley on the east side is rad. Throw some axes next door.

    I got pit, even though my wife told me to go for lawn. I think she had the Gorge lawn in her mind when she said that though. I wouldn't doubt it if she asked me to switch with someone that has good seats. Especially after walking around all day. We'll see.

    Gladly switch with you. Have 300 level seats, and would pay you the difference if your interested.
