    Stayed with a local at alpine last year. He mentioned that alpine has struggled and 3 bands were thinking of just buying the place. Jimmy Buffet, DMB and PJ. Not much to validate that but the neighborhod that we stayed at for PJ20 talked a lot about it. Some of you are close to alpine may know more on this.

    :lol: Why would PJ (or DMB or Buffet) get in the business of running a concert venue? I'll buy all the other rumors. This one is a local yokel making something up for a visitor.

    They can't run a ticket sale, but they are going to run an almost out of business concert venue. :?
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    Hearing rumors that PJ has a 3 year deal with Alpine


    At least they are playing I suppose. Would like to see them spread it out a little more though or do something additional. It would suck if they just played Alpine Valley in the US every year.

    Yeah, that would be nice. Because that's the only way I'd be able to go this year.


    Dang it. I was hoping for the Gorge.

    Likewise...I was really hoping for Gorge this year too :(
    I won't be able to make it to Alpine...yet again.

    Throw away those dip shit DMB fans and have Phish play.
    I know I wouldn't mind tripping a few hours tailgating & seeing 2 hrs each of JB, PJ & Phish.
    Just need a few bags of shrooms :mrgreen: . There are cow fields near Alpine Valley , no :ugeek:

    If there is a 2-day event with bands that you could see sort of had a connection to the band (and not being some people EV got to now the last 2-3 years) or have been around through the years I would go.

    DAY1
    My Morning Jacket
    Alice In Chains
    Neil Young
    Members from MMJ, AiC and Neil Young playing a few PJ songs as a tribute.
    Pearl Jam

    DAY2
    Kings of Leon
    Sonic Youth
    The Who
    Members from KoL, SY and The Who playing a few PJ songs as a tribute.

    Is there anyone in the forum that could afford going to a show with this lineup?

    If nothing else you catch Stone with BRAD at Easy Street on Record Store Day!!! Shouldn't cost you anything, unless you buy some vinyl. :D

    Oh believe me, there's always room in the budget for vinyl. The added bonus is a free Brad show.
