The Official 2024 TOUR Thread

darwinstheory

Thanks all for the suggestions. 

@Zod @juliefer For Vancouver Island, the major "wants" are to head up near/to Tofino. Also check out the plane crash site south of there. Mostly, probably things outside of Victoria. The videos I've seen have just depicted Vancouver Island as the most beautiful place!

We enjoy hiking quite a bit. We are also planning on going to the Portland show and may try getting to some of the National Parks in Washington if weather permits.

So, we're flying into Bellingham on the 3rd and crossing into BC on the 4th. Any recommendations on:
1. Which border crossing to use
2. Things to do during a half day in Bellingham 
3. Things to do in Vancouver between the shows. I REALLY want to hit up Vancouver Island, but I know just 1 day is not enough. Was contemplating a day trip up to Whistler. 

A cool thing to do between shows is maybe check out Main Street in Vancouver. There are 2 great record stores (Neptoon Records, and Redcat Records) and other shops, as well one of my favourite restaurants (Burgoo). There are also plenty of places to grab coffee and/or beers.

If I'm not hiking somewhere, then yes, somewhere to grab beers and foods is paramount!!!

I'm from Chicago and I over did Culvers that I don't go very often anymore,  Their burgers are kind of crispy and not a lot of flavor. I love the curds and custard.  I always liked In-N-Out Burger but it might be association for being on vacation in Vegas.  If you are staying by Paris or the Horseshoe you need to stop by Ellis Island on Koval (about 2 blocks off the street).  They have a good BBQ restaurant and an actually decent steak special for less than $20 (I think you can get $5 off even that if you get a card and play $20 in slots/Video Poker).  It used to be a local's secret years ago.

On the way to dine in Whistler you can work up an appetite hiking The Chief, the largest granite monolith rock in Squamish.

Now that sounds intriguing, and Canadian asf! Heading to Google now.

I was hiking out at the crash site last may long, it was pretty fun.   Pacific Rim National Park is 4.5 hours from victoria, so it must be 3 from Nanaimo.   Technically doable on a day trip if you took the first and last ferry over, you'd have some hours there

This place is pretty amazing. Didn't realize it until I moved away once upon a time.

Pearl Jam's 2024 tour announcement date is rumored to have leaked!

A user on the Ten Club board has stated that February 13th will see the announcement of Pearl Jam's 2024 tour and new album, with new music being released as well.

For those of you familiar with the MGM venue, what's the easiest, most affordable approach to parking? We'll be heading up from Phoenix and crashing outside of town Saturday night before heading home Sunday morning.

That site is trash

Yeah I used to follow it until I saw the light. Then I posted on Facebook a few times whatever one line of news it really was and if it was already recycled and Brett blocked me. Felt like I achieved something. Makes the Blabbermouth team look like an army of David Frickes 😂

Since AlternativeNation simply seems to recycle information posted by other users on this board, I’m almost expecting the next headline on AlternativeNation to be: “Ten Club board users state AlternativeNation is trash” 🤣

Think some of the posts got mixed up by the way.

Hope Brett got them mixed up too. Knob.

It is good to know that May is a good month to visit for hiking. We prefer to try most of our travels while schools are still in session. Far fewer people out there exploring during those times.

Thanks @Spunkie - this seems like a real possibility for us!

Which is to say those 2 SEA dates probably now end up being split up. 1 show being at the Gorge just before Missoula. In which case I would HAVE to pivot from Vancouver and hit up the Gorge/Missoula prior to Indy & Chicago.
