@RadiantDarkness would love that, I may be pushing hard for a west coast NYE trip if thats the case!

@Johnny-Love Thanks man! i'll try and sell her on the whole lion king kid reveal thing, will get back to you on that lol:)

@robAF Great review, i broke the 2-hr spafford rule... Firefly was the first time they ever came to the east coast, way back in '12, wasnt it? What a whack festival, i was hoping i could get my wife in for Saturday, as her fav band is the Killers. But it was a tough sell at >$100 for a day pass!

where in DE you at? i live in west chester, but work in Wilmington on Augustine cut-off rd. We should grab some brews some time. If not i'm sure i'll bump into you at ardmore soon

Bobby

Kind of a week "tour" what do you guys think? I guess I'm bummed they're not coming up to the NE much this run. NYC and thats it...

And my wife is due that week too, so i'm screwed on this run:(

Element fest... That. Freaking. Venue! And they have tons of packages so u don't have to hall camping gear across north America. Maybe next summer if they're back up at element I may make the push to take the whole fam.

This year's tough I gotta try to fly under the radar and stick to mostly local shows (I.e. shows not requiring 2-3 days of check-the-F-out-from-family time and a room)

Sidenote: God damn I loved all our sub 15$ shows I feel like we really got away with murder. I'm screwed on the spafford front though, thank God for couch tour. I may be asking the boss-man for a hall pass for peach, that lineup is baller

Not complaint, but daytime sets and rigid time slots blow for the boys. Don't get me wrong, I'll take anything I can get for a fresh Spaff fix. But summer used to be music season, and the last few years I loathe it and yearn for fall/winter, when they tear through every tiny venue In a Town near you leaving only four alarm blazes and hundreds of new nerds in their wake

#LetSpaffordJam #thanksBrownie. 15 glorious extra minutes, much appreciated

@Frito-Pie just requested to join, not sure why it took me this long. Got a bunch of shows coming up in April so it'll be great timing to spread the good word

@dontjudgedave @Cody This one holds a special place in my heart guys, this Charlottesville show was the first show i ever downloaded and listened to end to end. I loaded it up boarding a plane to Jackson, WY, and proceeded to cruise around town all week with that on repeat with snow dumping. and epic conditions Been hooked every since, and i'll never forget charging through the glades with Bunch blaring turned up to 11!

Moments like that are what life's all about

@RadiantDarkness Can't wait to catch that one! Liking the fact that these 40-50+ min jams are becoming more and more common.

Sidenote: Have they all happened on weeknights? If so, time to quit my job and switch to working weekends!

@damian @Spidergawd after the Terminal West show in January it's no wonder. Although i do think there is a little extra demand than a normal weekend in ATL since its THE after party at 420 (Kinda like BB kings show for the Phish after party). While it'll be nice to graduate to better sounding venues and higher pay days for the fellas, i'm going to miss the 15$ tix and guaranteed rail spots...

@kfox527 yeah Ben Factor is killing it, designs everything on a comp now before even heading into a venue. Added tons of new stuff in 18, Dude has a vision and I'm on board!

@damian yeah everyone got a much needed 3 or 4 day break. JP needs a few nights off too haha

@myanruth I'm later than I'd hoped as well, may have to settle for a rail meet up and after party.

@FloptimusPrime im getting in around 620, let me know where you're gonna be

I know @myanruth is in!

Hey nerds, I saw there are a decent amount of commits for the show tonight. Anyone down for getting there a little early to throw back a few tall ones with the locals? I dont have any suggestions, but the Wharf is brand new i'm sure they have some great spots right by. I'm staying right across the street too.

Suggestions???

@jimbo what's up man? Still on cloud 9 from Saturday, especially that slip and squander! Great chatting with you (hopefully I didn't cross into chomping territory)

That Buffalo plans was amazing, I hope they treat us to more live streams. Mixlr in the mean time though:)

@Darbidoll Praying for a clean biopsy homie! Please keep us posted as soon as you find out anything.

I nominate the Taco-weasel Double Sammy Wammy from Lancaster. Whole set is fire!

Side note, how rare is it to have someone sit in for a Spaff original? That Slip and Squander was also phenomnal, but sorry for getting off topic

A few people have suggested federal tap house as a pregame spot, so that's where I'm heading. See you nerds tonight

@leithsd they have a pretty big box truck full of lights, but some places don't have the space for them or they opt not to use as many options. like the foundry in Philly, they just lit the curtain behind them, but rest of lights were kinda simpler than other nights.

@bongomaz42 @TeamDadRock sounds good guys, I'll be posting/looking here next few days to figure out the spot. If nothing else I say we go apres ski haha

@erik looks great, but i'm confused. They mention Apre ski (?!?) which is not something i thought was highly sought after in Lancaster. I'm up for anything...
