There...I did it.

Who's in? We're there both nights.

    Only $15 more than what it costs on TM......

    give it another couple of weeks... you might get them below what the scalpers paid....

    Count me in for night 2.
    How early are some of you planing on being there?
  • lksammktlksammkt Posts: 127
    I hope the EV crowd is better than the lamo Cal Football crowd. I swear, me and my friends were the only fun people there last time.
    Go Cougs! I'm in for both nights.
    I just keep moving on....

    I think we are planning on getting over there around lunch time and making a day out of it. It's gonna be a good time...we're not traveling across the country for nothing!

    How far is it from the venue?

    Unfortunately I won't be there, but the Bear's Lair is awesome.

    I was there for the Cal/WSU football and had a great time. You couldn't beat the $1 Bud & Bud Lights they were serving.

    Ended up picking up a "GO BEERS" shirt they have there. Can't wait to get back there.

    I'm coming from Sacramento (about1 1/2 to 2 hour drive) so maybe I'll leave a bit early and try to beat the traffic.

    Won't that be against rush hour traffic? I think so.

    I plan on taking the day off and hanging out in Berkeley for most of the day.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do during the day?

    Night 2 tickets are now easy to get for under $100 and Night 1 is now under $90...and we still have a month until the shows. If the tickets continue to get lower for night 2 and/or I win a lot of money in Vegas later this month, I may just be able to go to night 2...sweet.

    Has anyone seen a show at Zellerbach? If so, do you think second row Mezz towards the center would be better seats than the second to last row in ORCH center? I appreciate your opinions.

    Thanks,
    Drew
