Thanks. I think the overriding thing is the fact that this could be a 2-3 event which would really suck to miss out on. Hell, any PJ show sucks to miss out on! Lord knows how jealous I am of all you who got to enjoy the Philly shows. I was fortunate enough to catch both MSG shows- very grateful for that.0

That's cool - cos I'm planning a trip to see Seattle friends this year too - long overdue, and I don't think I can manage the festival as well - unless it's closer. I think I might be able to hit a Seattle show though, and maybe take in a secret show or two!Let me know if you hear of any won't you??
a seattle show just seems logical if you do the math. i'd bet on a seattle show before the festival...
Math was never my strong point!Anyway, looks like I could be Stateside around weekend event time then - in which case it will all seem tantalisingly close. How's the hitchhiking between Seattle and Alpine?
Failing that I will crack open a few beers and party in Seattle in time with the Simulcast on Sirius radio.

That's not an amphitheater in the USA sense of the word. Wuhlheide is basically a stadium and nothing like a US Amphitheater which are great ideas in theory but all have terrible sound and are only average from the seats.Member 164xxx

It plays just like any college outdoor stadium here in the US which is 500 times better than any American amphitheater which is my point. I'm not putting down Wuhlheide. My goodness. If you are expecting Wuhlheide like sound out of Alpine Valley, you will be very disappointed if you make the trip over here and get stuck in the lawn.Member 164xxx

That's awesome, because I've been to 11 shows in US Amphitheaters and will be at my 12th if it's at Alpine Valley. I honestly couldn't care less what the Greeks and Germans consider amphitheaters.Member 164xxx

It's alright, an amphitheatre can also be an arena thing. But this isn't about definitions here - it's about fun!
