Anyone get Premier Parking through the Warehouse? Got my pass with my tickets the other day, but it doesn’t say anything about it being a “Premier Parking” pass. Looks just like a generic parking hangtag. Just want to make sure I have the correct parking pass for what I paid for.

there is no other pass that I am aware of so I assume it is right.
"general parking" they just give you a small ticket for the dashboard

Ok great thanks. I know there’s VIP parking too, and that pass is clearly labeled as such. So I had a moment of panic when I got this generic yellow hangtag.

I got the same one as you for premier. You're good.

one week to go!

Hoping my BIL and I can snag a good spot in the Pit (back rail, centered) if we stroll in about 45 minutes before the band takes the stage.

Cloudy and a high of 82 for Wednesday… we’ll see if that changes.

My favorite spot at any venue.

Just saw the DMB Announcement that Dave will be "playing an exclusive @siriusxm + @pandora #SmallStageSeries show!" and that he "will perform an acoustic set in a secret outdoor location. The intimate show will air live on SiriusXM's Dave Matthews Band Radio." This set is scheduled for August 19th.

With Syracuse on August 18th, and the next show being in Mansfield, MA, are there any guesses or rumors as to where this might be?

well it says "NY"
I assume closer to the city if not in it since that's where Sirius is based unless its not actually live and that's just when it will air

kinda stupid though that its a show for "subscribers only" and there isn't a way to get tic other than the 1 set being given away.

ISO Single Ticket (Non Lawn) - Looking to do my first solo show ever! My wife is normally with me, but we have a 9 month old and I am looking to make the trip from Columbus. I am worried that things may get shut down for my later shows, which is why I am looking to do my first solo trip. Thanks in advance!

Have you checked Ticketmaster, saw a few relatively cheap re-sale tickets up ($100-150 range).

Not that it effects 99% but Lakeview just announced anyone backstage is vaccinated or negative test and masked no matter what

I think the only change here(for DMB) is the masks.

Crew is in a bubble, only immediate family allowed to be around.

[BrahmaBull]

Still ISO lowers..

venue crew didn't have to show proof or wear a mask till now
and now its 100% masks for everyone inside, not just backstage but the only other place that applies is the bathroom???

FT: One lower 104 for a single pit

[dmbfan100]

First time seeing a show in Cuse. How big is the pit?

And is it true this venue is requiring proof of vax? (Lol)

Pit is decent size. 5 rows of seats but wider than say spac although the two outside sections you would only see Buddy/Jeff if you stood there and advertised as 500 people

No vac requirement for DMB but masks at any and all indoor spots, which for 99% means bathroom and a couple tents.
walk through metal detectors followed by hand wands for anyone who sets it off.
12x12x6 Clear bags heavily enforced including baby supplies/diaper bag. No purse or other bag, that’s not clear, bigger than half sheet of paper.
No signs bigger than a full sheet of paper.
Lawn chairs out of the bag. Personal umbrella with flat/blunt end.
Sealed water up to 1 gallon (inside is $7) and snacks in clear ziplock bag.

Repeat, clear bags heavily enforced, even on “purses”

Yes to both.

Hope you guys get Captain!

Afternoon everyone, first timer at Syracuse. Going solo, I’ve been following the thread and researching for the venue. I have a PIT ticket and am staying at the Quality Inn north of the venue. I still have some questions for any Syracuse Experts. Does Dave commonly start around 8-8:15 in Syracuse? I keep hearing about the Orange Lot and the shuttle, but I also hear traffic after the show is a pain, is this true? Any Ants get together happening at the tailgate? Lastly, are there more than one vendors who sell the posters? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Stay safe and happy touring!

In the past, he has started that late, but I would say that he’s been getting on stage pretty close to 730 at the most recent tour stops.

Traffic can absolutely be a pain depending on the size of the crowd. The shuttle is a good alternative.

No one really knows traffic this yr because they added new exits that haven’t been utilized for a large crowd yet but I think I will stick to the shuttle or new walk ramp down to brown/pink, whatever it is

I would def be inside and ready at 7:30 for 7:45 start at the latest

Merch is more based on the band, but the venue has one set stand. As you come down the hill it is towards the right kinda behind the lawn chair rental tent

Ps the Quality Inn is more west take 690W out of the lots

I think its more casual. Room to move/dance, better overall view of the whole band/stage.

Sound would most likely be better, not many speakers in front of you, more like WAY above you and way to each side.

Not to mention the rail sardines.

Rail is awesome right in front of Dave, just because Dave.
