    Penrose Hotel seems to be selling a lot of free cancelation rooms right now. :lol:
    Yeah I wouldn't stay there. 
    Real bad? Only thing close to the venue that is affordable that I can tell. 
  • If Philly happens, they will be the two must hit shows of the stadiums, cost wise, accessibility wise, and likely setlist and crowd wise
    Why would Philly be any different, crowd and setlist wise, than Wrigley or Fenway?  Because of the new-ness?

    And J Shandler........c'mon down!!!  You're the next contestant to be quoted on alternativenation.net!!!

    I stayed there in 2013.  It's close but such a hole.  And I made it worst by fixing my radiator under their awning while it was raining.  While cranking PJ.

    I’m convinced Philly is the bands favorite place to play.  I’ll never miss a Philly show again.

    Just a thought (sorry if this has been discussed already): Eddie has done Ohana Fest in Southern California the last two years. Seems to be his baby, and I'm not sure it could survive at this point without him. Ohana Fest website says "See you in 2018", so it's obvious the plans are for it to continue this year. How might this affect any potential SoCal shows, or PJ shows elsewhere for that matter?

    For what it's worth, last year Ohana Fest was September 8-10, and if we're talking stadiums, the Dodgers are on a long road trip from September 7-16...

    Not too many cities can make a better case. I'd still personally take Boston but that's one part personal taste and several parts homerism. :smile:

    They are playing Citizen’s Bank Park in Philly for sure, likely second weekend of September. This per an executive friend that works at the stadium. 
    whaaaaat?!  one show or two?
    Likely two but I didn’t get confirmation on that

    im thinking Ohana will be Sept 8 this year. That's what we are planning on at this point. And true, it's Ed's gig, so I would believe he will be there. So ya, maybe a Dodgers stadium show mixed in?

    If these rumours are true maybe the week in between Wrigley and Fenway would be Ohana's date. It was in August in 2016 as you probably know.

    I wonder if there would be any thought about doing a full-band performance there this year. I mean, it's Ed's gig, and if the band is in tour mode anyway, it would make a lot of sense. Plus, it would bring a LOT of recognition to a festival that has brought in pretty big names but hasn't quite found its niche yet (as far as I know, it hasn't sold out either of its first two years). The only drawback would be with an 11,000-12,000 person capacity per day, it wouldn't come anywhere near what a stadium show would draw.

    Well, I just found this. Looks like Ohana Fest will be later this year - September 28-30. Interesting.

    Not at the shows I've seen at citizens bank park in Philly. But I've only seen Sir Paul McCartney and Billy Joel there.

    This answered my question.... but I will point out that the second night of Cal Jam October 6-7 needs a headliner. Both festivals are great times.

    Foo Fighters are the only headliner at Cal Jam. The Friday night this year was lower key with a couple of cover bands and Trouble Funk playing one of the side stages. The main stage was not open on Friday.

    I was about to say the same thing. Cal Jam is basically a one-day (Saturday) festival, with people encouraged to camp and chill on Friday. Not to say that they can't expand it to a full two-day fest, but I haven't heard anything about any intentions to do so, and I have a close friend who works in management at Glen Helen who would tell me that was in the works.

    I'm still thinking Outside Lands is the most likely festival possibility for 2018.

    The rumour mill was saying it was expanding to two days, but the rumour mill failed to tell the organizers (it appears). Can I start the rumour that EV will play it solo?

    As for Dodger Stadium, I'm only half kidding when I say that Eddie might be too bitter about the Dodgers destroying his Cubs in the playoffs last year to want to step foot at Blue Heaven on Earth...

  • So this is super exciting! We keep talking philly and Fenway, but does anyone else have any ideas/ leads on other stadiums/cities?
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    If this is true, then playing Citi Field/Meadows Festival in NYC the following weekend would also make sense.
    They could either do Citi Field, or MSG like they did back in 2016..
    Regardless of which venue they decide to play at, I'm super hyped for this tour.
