Sorry everyone long weekend at Summer Camp this weekend. 95 degree heat took its tole. If you ever get the chance check out Primus. Les Claypool is a wizard. 40 days!

[maddog162]

I love Primus. I'm seeing them in June.

I got to see Les Claypool's Frog Brigade, Oysterhead and Primus all in one day at Bonnaroo...craziness.

:rofl::kim::nono::nono::nono::):):):):):)Alpine is going to be great.

Yes, Primus and Claypool are very very good! I'm jealous of you Sharif!

Alpine is in 39 days! I can't believe it.

Uhhhh I am no mathematician.... but doesn't 37 come after 38 in a countdown? :jeffbrat:

[Dwill26]

[Dave I]

I'm thinking there may be a contest at Alpine with the winner winning this bad boy.

I understand the countdown thing was fun but the result is a thread that's prohibitively tedious to navigate- would be useful to have a functional meetup thread for Alpine. Thx

I think we've done that in the past actually, and yes, the countdown...eh, I just ignore it...have for the last 4 years :lol:

Oh my. :lol:

As far as the actual meetup goes, typically when we get a little closer and definite plans have been set.. Meetup location to caravan in, members attending... etc... Post #1 will be updated :) Till then, we all just shoot the shit with Alpine excitement. (I doubt you'd find any useful information in the last 40 pages of this thread, countdown or not. :lol:)

Sorry about the countdown. I've been doing it since I became a member over 4 years ago. It's not that big of a deal (at least in my opinion). Anyways, as the show gets closer more details will emerge with what we're going today.

Yesterday was 37 days, and today is 36 days! Happy Friday everyone!

[Kim]

I like the countdown. :biggrin:

[hungrydavejunkie]

The countdown adds to the build up of excitement!!!


Who doesn't like that? :confused:

[Emily]

Keep the countdown!!!

[sugar willie]

The countdown is great, man. Don't stop, especially now that it's getting close. I'm an Alpine virgin and it's getting me excited.

Plus, I have no idea why a countdown post once a day would make the thread "prohibitively tedious to navigate" :lol:

[hungrydavejunkie]

Man, all this knocking of the G&T...I think the three of us need to meet up and have ourselves some man drinks. :dbud:

I'm an Alpine virgin and it's getting me excited.

When was the last time you got to say "virgin" and "it's getting me excited?" :lol:

[maddog162]

I have nothing against old man drinks (I had whiskey neat the other day) but G&T is just icky.

Yeah, I'm not a G&T man either. But I like scotch, vodka, and tequila. (Speaking of which, I just found out recently that Avion tequila that was on Entourage is actually a real tequila.... and it's damn good).

C'mon guys, I didn't say there shouldn't be a countdown. But it turns out the discussion I thought had been in this thread that I was trying to come back to after not checking in here for a few weeks is actually in another thread.
Sorry to break the flow...

You're not breaking the flow, some people are just mean lately and feel the need to pounce on anything not to their liking. It's ok, I'm keeping tabs...they won't be getting pineapple brats at Alpine :nono:

so are we feeling Thank You after a 2 year break? I sure am.

[Jenny]

so are we feeling Thank You after a 2 year break? I sure am.

As much as I would PREFER a different closing song....

I can make an exception for it's presence at Alpine.. and also make an exception as far as chants go. I love the N2 Thank You tradition :) So much fun!

[Dwill26]

Agreed. Not a song I usually want to get chanted and brought on to close a show, but its tradition! I love that the crowd gets into it and (in past years) the band reacts.

[Emily]

I hope they do something different. I like Thank You, but I'd rather them play something else.

[Kim]

I really hope you know I was being sarcastic saying that :lol:
:lol: I did.

[ThestonE24]

Forget Thank You. Even though it kind of feels to be overplayed these days. Just end it with Halloween. That has kind of been a tradition lately (2 of last 3 years). 33 days!

[theponderousman]

Thank You at Alpine IS a badass thing to witness in person, especially after an awesome show (which they all pretty much are there right???). I'd be ok with them doing that 1 night. Not sure I'd be up for a Halloween to close though... it's an awesome song but not the longest or best I've seen close. Who knows, as long as they play, I'll be alright :)

Agreed, I like it too. Don't want to get it chanted, and would much prefer something else to close. Just my two pennies, which are worth something to me and maybe one other person. :biggrin:

[CrazyEazy]

Oh cathy your worth 3 in my book! Ok all I have received a bunch of pm for shirts but I am closing it up after June 8th as I need time for the print and delivery by alpine or if u want u can wait to get em there.. do hurry up... Also for those I haven't got back to in pm I will I promise and ill answer any questions...

[sugar willie]

Don't want to get it chanted, and would much prefer something else to close.

Agreed. I've seen Thank You close a couple of shows, it's generic and does nothing for me. I'd like to see the Halloween>Billies encore they've been doing close one of the nights. And, maybe something like Typical and Warehouse the other night :)

Also, if someone is chanting for Thank You near me, is it ok if I punch them in the face? In New York, we can do shit like that, but is that frowned upon in the Midwest??

[theponderousman]

Honestly, if you were to see what Thank You was like at Alpine and the 20 minute fan-based encore, you'd be less likely to try and punch someone in the face. You might even join in without knowing it and like it!

Here's the thing I love about Thank You compared to other songs of theirs. When Dave's in his moment of glory in the song, and he rips off his microphone / ear piece and starts to really jam and 'dance' and then rejects his guitar from the guitar dude and CONTINUES to dance and have fun....that right there is one of the 3 main reasons I love this band. They GET the music, they GET their fans, they're there to not only perform but to have FUN. Those are the moments that I remember most at a show. Not necessarily songs played since they were formed that you can hear on a lot of cds, not 'rare' songs that people love to chant for, not a 5 minute songs...it's what the band does with them. A song like Thank You at Alpine can make the show.

OK, you can return to your regularly schedule countdown :lol:

Like I said, I've seen it a couple of times, it's generic and does nothing for me. I'd rather see something else. But, yeah, when I am there and in the moment, I will enjoy it, no doubt.

Now that I'd like to see.

[Dwill26]

okays so this is a repost from another thread but I feel like more people see this thread then the Mansfield one, including people who have been there haha....probably a dumb question but...

Okay so my brother is an idiot and stayed up most of the night and all morning taking care of his sick girlfriend (cute, sure. but not on my DMB day god damnit) so he is like a zombie right now. If we leave later, skip tailgating, does it ever get to a point where a lot closes or fills up or what have you? Ive never gone to a show later then say 3 pm haha. How does that work. ayuda?!

[maddog162]

I wouldn't worry about it too much, if you get there like an hour before the show there should still be some room in the lots.

In any other circumstance, I'd agree with you, hands down. I've heard Thank You WAY to many times and I'm not necessarily a fan of the song to begin with. DMB or not. BUT.... it's just different at Alpine with the crowd getting into it.

I'm kind of surprised by the strong negative reaction by those that have been there for the Thank You's at Alpine in years past... :dunno:

[Dave I]

so are we feeling Thank You after a 2 year break? I sure am.

Absolutely. I'd love to see the rare double encore for this though. The band plays their encore, everyone loves it, then on their way to the buses, they hear the fans and come running back. I mean, that's what we all were hoping for with that 20 minute fan-driven Thank You encore right?

[drdicodmb]

Hello all been awhile how's everyone been?

Just a heads up.. by 5pm cst tomorrow if you haven't paid your order will not be placed! =\ the shirts have been going great.. Fyi will have orders taken for a non-alpine shirt but still the DMB Jack D shirt later this summer..

[ThestonE24]

Good times!! :biggrin:

I remember meeting you, Anna, and Cathy. That weekend was a big bluuur! But, hey! we're all 21 once right!

I can't believe we're only 29 days out.

Yes Dan I'm about 5 miles out of Peoria. Why are you coming to Peoria this summer? And yes drinking beer we will do. Lots and lots.


28 days. 4 weeks. 1 month. CAN"T WAIT!

[Dwill26]

Im moving my good friend in with his girlfriend down there so Ill be there for a few days and will probably be visiting quite often. Beers and beers. You hitting the Mumford stop over in dixon? thats by you to I think?

[ThestonE24]

I'm not going to Mumford and sons. I currently have 8 Dave shows this summer (3 being the Gorge). And from the looks of it, I'll be hitting the fall tour at Wisconsin and U of I.

We were at the same hotel, not in the same room. Good effort, Mitchy.

(Well... Anna Blu was in our room, but still. You're getting off point here. Lamer never remembers a dude.)

[shastaroseward]

I can't believe I'm requesting this, but can someone post a picture or two of the Davestick? I'm trying to explain the contraption to a friend and I'm failing. I don't get it. I successfully describe the quark content of baryons and their transformation during decay. Why can't I accurately paint a picture of the Davestick?!? I'm so frustrated with myself!

[ThestonE24]

[drdicodmb]

Hello all officially got my ticket for night two.

[theponderousman]

I think that Rob should finally get his butt to Alpine. There's a WDS banner he needs to sign, a pineapple brat he needs to fall in love with, a Strip n Go Naked that's got his name on it, and just a badass venue with awesome friends going to it.

DO I need to start a poll???

[Chicago]

Hey folkses,
Not like any of you wouldn't have tickets. but I'm finding I have a dearth of friends able to appreciate DMB-- will trade one of my lawn seats for travel to/from Chicago. Either/both nights.

Not sure why you keep denying your inner love for the Dutchie...look at the smile on your face...you're beaming. It's like you're holding a child for the 1st time. I bet the sunglasses are hiding tears. Just let your true emotions flow Kim, sheesh :jeffbrat:

Only 15 days left until the greatest venue in the world welcomes back the DMB crew.

And tomorrow I have Noblesville for 2 nights! Lower pavilion night 1 and PIT night 2, can't waitttt!

[theponderousman]

OK, so I'm finally getting excited for a DMB show. There's been so much happening these past few months and I haven't done much DMB wise. I haven't even listened to any of the new songs yet. Kinda crazy it's 2 weeks away. I should probably go and get the pineapple brats huh?

Is anyone organizing the 'what to bring' list as has done in the past? Condiments, plates, tables, etc...?

[theponderousman]

OH! And I have an extra room under my name at the Holiday Inn Express in Beloit if anyone needs one? If not, I'll release it back into the general public soon

[Dwill26]

does it come with complimentary calf warmers?

[Kim]

So, in 2009 we had the the banner.
In 2010, we had the Davestick.
In 2011, we had...well, we had nothing.
And in 2012, we'll have the Flash Dance Shirt! "Here, put this on. Smile! <click>"

Yes, yes you should :bigwink:

I don't believe there is a list started. I do think this would be a good idea. If y'all want to post what you are bringing or what you want to bring, I can add it next to your names in the first post.

Condiments, paper products, Snacks, Burgers, brats, bacon explosions, crack chex mix, strip-n-go's.... I am sure the list goes on. Is someone bringing the cooler for the strip-n-go's?

This is two weeks away!!! :excited:

[ThestonE24]

14 days. Deer Creek bound. Latttter.

[theponderousman]

I've got the Strip n Go Naked cooler and grill of course, and I have a 5ft table I can bring. I'll be bringing the brats, probably about 50 or so depending on the price and all. If someone could grab buns, that'd help out!

I also have one of those canopy tents, but if someone else can bring at least 1 more, the more shade the merrier. I have testicle toss and polish horseshoes, if someone wants to bring a cornhole game, go for it.

Along with the above, here are things I'm planning to bring that you don't have to worry about:
Grill utensils
paper towels
trash bags
I can bring an extra folding chair or 2 if someone wants me to?

Off the top of my mind, what we'll need is:
-Another canopy
-Hot dog buns
-Condiments
-Plates / plastic ware
-Strip n go naked mixings : 1.75 cheap vodka, 12 pack cheap beer, 1 gallon water, 6 frozen lemonades, 1 bag ice (I have the spoon to mix...I'm that cool)
-Other stuff to grill
-Davestick
-Snacks n snacks
-Guitars, drums, etc... I have two small bongo drums I'm planning to bring

And yes, I have a camelpack for Katie :)

[Dwill26]

Ill bring my guitar and bongos, of course :)

I can also bring the stuff for strip n go's. I think its time I bring the goodies.

[cdmp13]

I have 4 or 5 extra folding chairs I can bring. And whatever else you guys need me to. :)

[Kim]

I'm updating post #1 with the supplies list (green means taken care of, red means needed). :biggrin:

[Dwill26]

:jeffbrat:

[Kim]

Good try. :lol:

[Dwill26]

If youre talking to me, I have no idea what you mean...

[sperls13]

I can't believe the 'dmb at Alpine madness' is only two weeks away.
So, so excited - this has been the longest I have gone in between
shows since I started this whole thing way back in 1996.

Anyhoo, I make dorky dmb care packages (dmb cd mixes, maps, places
to eat, weird art pieces, camping info, etc) when we go on roadtrips
for every car in our group and this year I am throwing in potential/hopeful
setlist scans that I made, see below ->

Take note: these are not, by any means, dream setlists! I tried to
be REASONABLE with these, using all but three songs they haven't
played up to this point, making sure all new songs are in there,
and also eliminating some of my personal 'clunkers' (Cornbread,
Eh Hee, Stay or Leave, Satellite, etc). Also, I tried to make them
look as "authentic" as possible, adapting titles to match and leaving
out seque marks, although, you can probably figure out which spots
will work for segues and such. BTW, one more thing, since the dmb
catalog continues to grow, this is hard to do - I kind of feel sorry for
Dave because it is really hard to pick when you only have so many
slots to fill.

[Kim]

I'm going to make Cathypants Energy Bites!

[Cathy W]

Energy bites FTW! OMG they are delicious.

Dan are you doing strip N Go's both days?

I can grab the buns, ketchup, mustard (what else does everyone want on their brats?), I assume we will make a grocery run Friday morning? I also assume everyone is bringing their own stash of solo cups? It wasn't mentioned, but I will grab some of those too so we have extras.

Who is in for some vodka soaked Gummy Bears???? :yes: Or anyone interested in Jello Shots? I think I may make some of those. Lemme know what y'all think.

[Jenny]

I'm more ready for this event now after Deer Creek last weekend! Didn't get to meet up with anyone there (made only a couple of attempts though). The good news is I don't really have a "crew" for Alpine, so I only have the BF to motivate to get to the lots now!

You should hopefully see a LOT more of me this year! :)

Need me to bring anything? It's been hard to keep up with the lists!

Same bf from last year and like 2005? And I'm sure you'll find SOME excuse to miss out on the tailgating :rofl:

[tiglet26]

Yeah same one :) Friday we're coming in straight from work, which is why I had to make him promise I get to go to the lots by 3 on saturday!

[MsEarth]

Will you guys be doing any post-show tailgating? If so, I'll definitely come by for a while.

Um hello, how long have you known me!?!? :lol:

I made the mistake of trying to leave the lots right after a show at my FIRST show back in 2002....never done that cluster F**k again :bigwink: I'm sure we'll be chillin till they kick us out :kim:

Alpine Facebook page said for Phish show this weekend no grilling out. Hopefully it won't be like that f or Dave show next weekend.

Thats probably because there has been 0 rain in the midwest here since sometime in May. Hopefully we get some between now and then or it may be the same. Hard to enforce I would imagine though.


Alright Dave and Sharif. What night is DMB Jersey night? N2 again?

[ThestonE24]

Only 8 days out everyone! Lets get a Shotgun. That song hasn't been played there since 2007!

Yeah Sara mentioned this to me as well. Which I'm glad I hadn't gone out and bought $50 worth of pineapple brats just yet. I'll wait till Wednesday but right now it's not looking likely.

And I don't know Dan, those Blue Ninjas....and honestly, knowing my luck, I'd buy all those brats, not be able to grill them, then have 50-60 brats in my freezer that Katie won't let me eat quick enough :rofl:

I can see them being pretty good about enforcing, especially if there's a high risk of fire. That's something nobody wants to be a part of

That's what I'd think. There's actually wildfire warnings here in Cincinnati, mostly due to the fireworks coming. I hope people can be smart. If we can't grill, I'm sure we can find a way to still feed the masses.

Either night, of course, we'll have the jerseys. Might want to wait and see what the weather is going to be like. I remember a couple years ago it was chilly N1 and really humid N2.

You could buy them in anticipation and just give them to your friends if you can't grill them... :jeffbrat:

I'm down with N2. We could also coordinate when we get there. Who said men can't coordinate outfits?

Thats true. Although if things stay the same it will be 100 degrees night 1 and 124 degrees night 2.

Of course men can coordinate outfits. We'll just have to be drinking a beer/ eating bacon while we do it.

My issue with the grills is that this weekend and next is going to be crazy for fireworks. They'll have better luck searching cars for fireworks than something being caused by a grill fire if you ask me. While I understand their need to act safe and not have grills, fireworks are going to be a cause for fires, not grills.

And honestly Dave, I'd bring em if there's a chance, but I'd be shocked if they'll magically allow them. I'm not planning to buy them till Thursday of next week though regardless. If we don't do them though, I'm just going to suggest everyone fend for themselves for sandwich meats, cold pizzas or something like that from a local place. There's an awesome sandwich shop down the street from that McDonalds that I had gone to like 3 years in a row that was great.

And I would never anticipate Alpine being a cool evening, especially not this year. Sure, bring a blankey just in case but I'm expecting prett much hot ass weather this year.

According to the Weather Channel website, it's supposed to rain up there this weekend and be in the upper 80's next weekend with a chance of rain Sat. :)

We did it in 2010 without trying with the Plaid Shorts... minus one of us... Someone didn't get that memo.

You're absolutely right about the fireworks... and Charcoal grills more than a Gas grill could cause a fire. And I was only halfway joking about the pineapple brats... If no grills, could we work out a side deal for you to buy me like 10 of them?

God please not 100 degrees and kill me if it hits 124

Beer and Bacon :thumbsup:

One week from now, many of us will have been sitting back in the sun (or under a canopy), sipping on Strip n Go Nakeds, MAYBE having a brat or 2 (or non-grilled food at least), standing in line for a poster we'll never hang, playing testicle toss, cornhole, polish horseshoes, and hanging out with new, old, and creepy friends!

Cheers to Alpine! :dbud:
