Thank you my friend!

Hey y’all - in all my years of seeing this band, I have never been to an ants tailgate, minus meeting the group at Ballsfest at SPAC.

Are you guys planning on meeting up at deer creek? Would love to join.

What’s the protocol? BYOB? Anything else I can bring?

[Lee3691]

I'm down to join a tailgate too.

[btpeters]

I’m not anti-meetups or anything, i used to partake frequently. But I’m older now lol and don’t like to move, wander or have a mass gather where I’m at once i arrive haha. Plus i take my kids Friday night and am usually catching up & enjoying time with my group coming in from many states who i typically only see at deer creek every year.

Down to meet peeps tho. I’ll let people know whatever is on my T-shirt each night and if you see me, don’t be afraid to say hi and introduce yourself. I’ll probably seek out twostepping, Untz and Rozz at some point right before the show starts to say “hey”. I’ll also be at Gorge this year, too, so same things there if you’re going.

Hell - Rozz and i still have a deal that if they play Mother Father we will hold hands for the entirety of the song!

I’d be in my seat by 7:30 on Friday since it’s broadcast on Sirius XM

There's always been a big Ants tailgate near the front of the lot by the pond. They usually post a story on IG of the location but have the flag flying.

Section A lowers for N2 are in hand - thanks FedEx

Buddy in Cincy has solid lower row uppers for N1

Well, nobody's favorite show tonight was made too much better by way of the stats. They didn't play Bristow in 2021, the 6 repeats from 2019 there plus A LOT of 2018 redos feel like this coulda been done much better. I mean Dreaming Tree, Break Free, Shotgun, Sweet Up and Down, Best of What's Around, Lie In Our Graves, Minarets, You Never Know...those don't have to be played so sparingly.

Venue Stats: Bristow

3 Never Played Before: Madman's Eyes, Come On Come On, Walk Around the Moon

4 Tour Debuts: So Right, Rooftop, Louisiana Bayou, Virginia In The Rain

6 Songs Played Last time at Bristow (2019): Ants Marching, Crush, Do You Remember, Don't Drink the Water, Rooftop, Virginia In The Rain

1st since 1997 - Lover Lay Down

1st since 2007 - The Maker

1st since 2012 - So Right

1st since 2014 - Sledgehammer

1st since 2016 - When the World Ends, Grey Street

1st That Girl Is You opener
1st Warehouse set closer
3rd Ants Marching show closer (Last 2004)

2nd ever: That Girl Is you, The Maker, Virginia In The Rain
3rd ever: So Right, Sledgehammer, Lying in the Hands of God, Lover Lay Down, Rooftop, Do You Remember

[JimiThing1234]

Also down to meet up, coming in from out of town with a friend and don’t know anyone!

[jlatham23]

I don’t know if this is frowned upon now or not. But I am looking for a single ticket lower level if anyone has one. Long time ants member. Scalper prices are insane I just want to see the band close.
Mid anyone has one for sale please let me know.

Thank you!!

I'm trying to sell my WH tickets on TM and when I enter the barcode number it is saying my tickets are invalid...


(these are my tickets from my personal account.)

I would think you could only sell Ticketmaster/Live Nation tickets on TM/LN because its electronically transferred?

It loads them by the barcode and enables the tickets to be listed for resale. It has worked for some people but wonder if certain states/shows are shut on or off depending on laws. Or Warehouse figured this out and turned it off?

Anyone ever do fast pass? Sober pregnant wife so trying to make it easy as can for her, thanks and cheers

[hensleytyler44]

Cannot wait to be back at Deer Creek! My last show was n1 2018, it's been too long. So ready for next weekend to get here!

[hensleytyler44]

Did some back reading and saw everyone was talking about their favorite Deer Creek memories, I agree with many of you all! Here's some of mine:

2010: JTR Opener, first DMB show, magical weekend

2012: Typical Liberation from Twitter Campaign / Carter's Pig / Fool to Think, that outro is incredible. So cool we were the only play that summer

2013: Pig TD & Spoon with Brandi

2014: Beach Ball Dave Solo opener & Good Good Time E1 - Dave earned that Shake Me closer after

2015: Let You Down / Spoon / Best weekend of Encores I've ever seen

2018: Pig & Stone TD's / Too Much e2

[jcwalb2]

Looking for 2 passes for Premier Club N2 if anyone has extras. Ticketmaster doesn't show them as sold out, but also doesn't give me the option to buy them, which is weird. See y'all soon!

Anyone know the covid procedure is with live nation now? Beginning of tour we needed to provide a negative test. Are we still needing to test? Huntsville was not a live nation venue so no requirements there.

No testing or vaccine requirements for shows.

It is all local decision right now (i.e. LiveNation only requires what the applicable government requires), and to my knowledge no venue has any requirements at present. I know someone posted earlier that it had been explicitly said by the venue there were no test/vax requirements.

obviously wasn't paying attention. Appreciate all the heads up.

[Bearclaw_]

Getting excited. Just over a week away. Fingers crossed for some setlist changes and we see some fun!

Would love to see Shotgun, "The Breaks" , and Dreaming Tree. Spoon or Halloween, or both, would be nice to cross off BTCS. And IBYU to cross of R2T.

I hope we see some good stuff as well. I could do without "The Breaks" but bring on Shotgun, Spoon, Halloween and Dreaming Tree. Wouldn't mind Old Dirt Hill and So Right or Idea of You.

All good. I just thought it was funny.

[btpeters]

Break Free has never been played at Deer Creek, that would be cool for the venue. Break For It was here in 2010 (and again at Alpine) and I'm fine on that one but...well...I'll be happy for you Bearclaw

Of the stuff they're playing now that I'd love Creek to catch that I haven't seen in a while: Two Step, Dreaming Tree, Shotgun, Come On Come On (SHUT UP )

Not really much I haven't seen or don't see regular or really want to get my hopes up for this year. Honestly, would LOVE a killer bust out like Kit Kat, Pay For, Busted Stuff, Help Myself etc.

Definitely these. We're set up pretty nicely in the tour for a great weekend, still tons to bust out in these four shows leading up to DC and songs to bust out at DC too

My Top 10 Song's I'm Chasing: Shotgun, KKJ, Busted Stuff, Help Myself, Lover Lay Down, Madman's Eyes, Last Stop, Hello Again, Cry Freedom, #27 - If I get any of those I will be thrilled

[Bearclaw_]

I keep a spreadsheet on my song counts. (AM and DMBAlmanac also does this but I like the one quick view across the entire catalogue, and I wanted it ordered differently)

So close to crossing off so many albums. 1-2 songs for most, 3 for Busted stuff. I don't care if I actually do it, and I likely won't get most albums, but it makes it fun to see a song pop up and I can cross it off. Especially coming from a later (2004) fan also.
