Raleigh Thread

I’m at the Hampton downtown for $150. I’d rather be around a bunch of bars and restaurants and uber to and from the show. 

Yeah lots to do on Glenwood South. Mojo's and Cardinal are some of my faves. Record Krate has a unique selection -- some great old school country and a lot of 80s new wave stuff. Sorry State has a LOT of punk and hardcore 45s -- they lean more towards hard rock and punk.

Check out the R-Line -- I mentioned it in my previous post ^^^^. You can get quickly to downtown (I know the Hampton says Downtown but we don't really think of that Glenwood South area as downtown -- Moore Square, Fayetteville Street, Wilmington Street is more "downtown"). Slims is probably my favorite bar in Raleigh -- classic rock dive bar -- tiny and always great drinks and music. Pour House can be fun too.

Thx! I actually went to Slims in 2016 when I should have been seeing PJ.

PJ - Bull City version...I visited the Hunky Dory store in Durham back in April and they had this sweet T-shirt...unfortunately only in a size small.  I asked the store owner if he could do another run of these shirts and he said it was an OTOTO with a local artist.  So, I just took a pic of it.  Maybe he'd reconsider with the band coming to town for the first time in 11 years...

To each their own and no knocking on anyone who is into this kinda stuff, but personally I hate this kind of merch -- and Hunky Dory makes a LOT of it. And I don't see how it's not copyright violation because there's zero chance they actually attributed or compensated the original artist. I'd much rather see something original from Hunky Dory -- almost all of their merch are just ripped off from other popular designs.

Yeah, a day or 2 before. I was already doing Columbia as well, so not a wasted trip. 

2016 ticket holder and resident of Raleigh at the time.

Got Gen Adm for the 11th in the draw and will be driving in from Charlottesville to finally get my Raleigh PJ show.

N1 - 120 Row Y (happy to trade Hollywood 1 reserved pair for Raleigh 1 GA pair)
N2 - GA 

Staying at Ramada by 10C

What does “by 10c” mean? Pre-party? 

Anyone needing Raleigh N1 tix. I'm putting them up on F2F tomorrow morning at 6:30am pacific time. See my post in the F2F is OPEN thread for more details and I'll put the link to the tix in there when they go up for sale.

Just watched a pair in section 121 go before I could get em

You too? The GA from N2 earlier this morning hurt.

I'm looking for N1 -- my sister wasn't successful in 10c or presale so trying for a Christmas miracle

Somehow we managed to get 4 GA tickets for N2. Anyone have 4 GAs for N1 and want to do a swap so we can all do GA both nights?
