Doesn't look like they make it anymore, but I'm sure there's a better one out there at this point.

I have these two on my wishlist currently, but haven't pulled the trigger:

Thank you as always Good Sir, I appreciate it.

    I'm arriving Thursday afternoon. I want to say around 3:30 4ish (flight lands at SEATAC at 10:45 am). Are all the facilities and food trucks, etc., opened on Thursday, or do they not open until Friday? Is there anything I need to be aware of or concerned about arriving on Thursday?

    You can get there at 3pm on Thursday which is when I am arriving as well. Best time to show up imo. Definitely nothing to worry about Good Sir.

    Not all the food vendors will be there Thursday, but some will.

    Late afternoon is a good time to arrive. Setting up camp in the dark blows ass.

    Night zero in the campgrounds is a fun night.

    anyone who uses contact lenses got any tips or tricks? just go wash your hands at the running water source and do it somewhat blind? i'm such a coddled baby it's hard for me to imagine taking mine out without a light source, level sink, and mirror (even though I never even look in the mirror, it must be ingrained in me to have one there, pavlovian style, because if I ever do it away from a mirror it feels weird as hell).

    I would just use the rear view mirror of the car. And I’m the same way as you, need a mirror. Dashboard is your sink.

    I believe Oasis has proper bathrooms with sinks and mirrors. Premier has them, I can't see why Oasis wouldn't!

    It’s a pretty solid starting point. Dunno what anybody else uses, but it’s got everything you could need. Of course feel free to pack things you want to bring that aren’t there and don’t pack the things you don’t think you’d need, but by and large it’s a a very solid packing list.

    . Stalk the boards as much as you can; they'll pop up.


    But if you don't get one, don't let me scare you off of D9 that much. Most of what we say about it is in jest, and I probably do it a bit too much and too deadpan.
    Premiere and Terrace are just nicer facilities, and a bit of an older/quieter crowd and I definitely recommend it, but you won't die in D9... probably.

    Since camping is such a big part of this weekend for so many people is it safe to assume there isn't much traffic getting in and out of the lots?

    Re: The Gorge Q&A and FAQs

    because I'm drunk and also my date canceled, I figured out the likelihood of seeing any song performed (at the gorge) this tour that I have not ever seen live:

    Samurai Cop - 93.9%
    She - 66%
    Do You Remember - 57.8%
    That Girl Is You - 48.9%
    Again & Again - 48.4%
    Come on Come On - 48.4%
    Come Tomorrow - 42.4%
    Recentlty - 21.2%
    Here on Out - 18.8%
    Digging a Ditch - 15%
    Lover Lay Down - 9.1%
    Captain - 9.1%
    You Never Know 9.0%
    Virginia in the Rain - 6.1%
    Black and Blue Bird - 3.0%

    This list makes me realize how many other tracks I've never seen live:
    Christmas Song
    Cry Freedom
    Let You Down
    Halloween
    Last Stop
    Spoon
    a bunch of shit from Everyday
    Busted Stuff
    Kit Kat Jame
    Baby (lol, never gonna happen)
    American Baby
    Everybody Wake Up (we're literally asleep)
    Dive In
    literally everything on AFTW
    People People

    what am I missing / what are you missing :/
