    Anyone know if there is any type of shuttle going from the beach to the ampitheather. We are staying at the Ramada Limited on the beach, which is about twelve miles away.

    This will be my first PJ show.

    By the way, I think weck is some type of bread. We had a BW3's in Blacksburg when I was in college and that was the explaination I got from the bartender when I asked.

    I don't know if there is or not. I'm headed out tomorrow morning though. My friend and I are staying in Norfolk about 10 minutes from the venue, we plan on taking a cab from the hotel to the venue, and just going with the flow for a ride home- I heard you can't get a cab there so who knows- might have to hoof it

    I'm hoping to find a way out there besides driving. Was really hoping not to have to deal w/ concert traffic.

    Set lists look pretty good for the to Fla shows. Good mix of old and recent stuff. I'm really hoping they pull some stuff out like Ghost that they typically don't play live. I've never understood why they don't do that one in concert much.

    I wouldn't count on any cabs or shuttles . Maybe look up some cab company names/numbers beforehand so you can call them from the venue.Yellow cab is usually dependable and service a huge portion of this area 757 722 1111...or just drive, it may end up being easier, unless you are planing on drinking then get a cab.

    *Special note to visitor's in the VA Beach area there are several one way roads so be careful and alert!
    See you at the beach!! 6/17

    That's so cool! A few people have told me there is a commercial for the show on TV, but I haven't seen it. (don't watch much TV) Have you?

    na, like you. i don't watch tv. but when i do it's usually recorded so i fastforward the commercials anyway.
    i have heard it on my local radio station. i love the way it sounds.

    Yeah I've been trying to listen to the radio more to hear those, and just to hear them talk about the show. (I know, I'm a dork) What station have you heard them on? FM99? 96X?

    looking back at some earlier posts it seems that VA Pre-party is at "BWW" (Buffalo Wild Wings) - in a strip mall/plaza thing, across from the Ampitheater -

    I know we'll be trying to get there by 4pm at least.. I heard from the locals who've been really helpful, that Tuesdays are crazy there - so might be a good idea to get there on the early side.
    Should be fun -Are u coming?

    Hope the smoke stays away. I had a hard time breathing Saturday when I went out.

    Fires down to the south. Smoke was blowing this way Saturday.

    It better not ruin Tues! are the fires out yet?

    Bring your inhaler if you have asthma.
