"I had given up on music, and that Stevie Ray Vaughan concert at The Gorge put me back on the path of music. The next day I was like, I have to pick up the guitar again. I have to do it…”

    Me too. Would be great to see them at the Gorge someday. If they did a destination weekend for 2 or 3 nights @ the Gorge, would totally be down.

    @ Enormous: The Gorge Story

    MOVIE UPDATE. Have you guys been wanting an update? I know you have. Here's the deal. WE ARE OFFICIALLY IN POST-PRODUCTION! That means we have hired a Chief Editor who is in the process of building the story with us and taking countless hours of footage and creating a movie with it! This will happen over the next 3-4 months. We are on track to complete the film before major festival submissions are due this Fall! That said, we haven't made official distribution plans as of right now. Our number one focus is making a great film, so that's what we're doing first. We will announce distribution plans when we have them, but as of right now it looks like private screening(s) in the Fall!

    Love the Gorge. Lots of good memories. Lolla '96, '97, The Who '00, Black Crowes/Tom Petty '05, Pearl Jam '05, Pearl Jam '06x2, Soundgarden '11, Tom Petty '15...

    awesome venue. I'm lucky it's sort of in ferry and driving distance.

    Enormous: The Gorge Story

    Lobero Theatre presented by Mirai
    Despite overwhelming odds, a small family winery with a makeshift plywood stage eventually became The Gorge, a Pollstar, Billboard, and Academy of Country Music-winning music venue that has brought over 7 million fans and the world’s biggest musicians to a patch of rural Washington farmland. From its catastrophic geologic birth, to its categorization as one of the world’s premier music destinations, the story of The Gorge Amphitheatre is packed with unlikely characters, historic events, and incredible music. Among others, the film chronicles the stories from the Dave Matthews Band, Jason Mraz, and Sasquatch! Music Festival, all of which have legendary pasts with the venue.

    Directed by Nic Davis
    Produced by Tim Williams
    Starring Dave Matthews, Pat Monahan, Jason Mraz, Steve Miller, Pearl Jam
    Country - USA
    60 mins.

    Saw DMB there in 2010, great time and cool location. Was cool to be with 20000 fans in the middle of nowhere just hanging out.

    I love the Gorge.  Saw a few lolla's there, a few tom petty shows, 3 pearl jam shows, soundgarden, the who.  Good times.  Well worth the extra 3 hours of driving from Seattle.   Merciless on a hot summer day ;)

    His eminence has yet to show.

    I saw Tool there in 2017. Flew across the country and did a 10 hour drive with a buddy to get there and well worth it. You are at the mercy of the weather but if you do not mind the heat or care about rain it is an amazing experience.
