Its actually in Vancouver WA. I will be working that day, and I work in Vancouver, I get off at 4:30, so I should be able to meet up with anyone at that time.

Yes, I shall be there. I will be driving up from Twin Falls, ID with my son. I've got family within an hour's drive of Portland/Vancouver, so I will hang with them for a few days, then catch the show at The Gorge! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/1022.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/1022.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/1022.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/common001.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/common001.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/common001.gif

Question for those who have been to the venue - how's the parking and traffic situation? I'm leaving West Seattle just after 230pm and I fear I may be cutting it close to get there in time for the EARLY 7pm start (what's up with that? all the other shows start at 8pm...)

 

Thanks in advance!

If you can I would park at the Park n Ride and take the shuttle. Thats seems like the best alternative. Shuttle costs $2 per person.

Have fun and see you at the show.

 

No meetup info.....that sucks!!! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/fists%20crying.gif

You should be fine coming from Seattle on a Tuesday. Will be much worse coming from Portland. It will take probably more then an hour to get there from Portland. I can normally get there in about 20 min from where I live in SE Portland.

I think they are earlier because of rules in the county. I think they were actually cited one year for being loud past a 11PM.

Meet up has been proposed by a guy on RIAB (RacerZ) at the Hazel Dell Round Table Pizza around 4:00-4:30. Said he and his brother will be there. Not sure if my GF and I will attend, but thought you might like to know. Go to the "General" section and the "Check-in" section on the 6/28 Ridgefield tour date on RIAB and you'll see his posts.

 

 

 

Secondly, THIS SHOW IS NOT A 7:00 PM START TIME, IT'S A 7:30 PM START TIME!! I just looked at my tix and it says 7:30 and that has been the case at this venue for at least the last several tours.

under the part about the Ctran park and ride it says salmon creek. Regardless, I'll call tomorrow before we leave Eugene.

I see that. I'll call in the morning as well. Guessing they may have changed it since I talked to them last week?? Thanks for the heads-up man!!

9:30 AM and just talked to C-Tran. The lady did indeed verify that it's the Salmon Creek Park & Ride and has been all along. So, I was given incorrect info 2 weeks ago when I called. Thank you VERY much for posting this Nate!! You saved my http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/bacon.gif . I would've gone to the wrong place as would a friend of mine coming up from Portland.

No problem haha, glad I could help. I Just contacted them on facebook, and make sure you purchase your shuttle tickets across the street at the safeway, or you won't be able to ride!

Already got 'em, late last week, but that's a good heads-up too. TY.

What an AMAZING show. It was my first time with floor tickets, and WOW what a difference. 15th row felt like the front compared to my usual spots in the far depths of the 200 sections. Was able to run up to the front to try and catch a shirt but no luck, got a quick glimpse of what front row was like, then security made us head back to our seats. I went with my best friend (only person who i could find to go last minute, she "hates" rush, and was not looking forward to it.) She absolutely loved it, and commented on how great Geddy sounded (thats the main reason she didn't like them). She already asked me when the next tour is haha. Anyway, the boys played great as always, it was my 3rd time seeing them, and definitely the best show I'd been to. They really seemed to get off on side 2 of moving pictures, particularly vital signs, just tremendous playing all around. Then, about 10 minutes after leaving the park and ride, I notice a pair of motorcycles coming up behind us. Closer inspection revealed Neil's BMW, and a quick face check proved it to be the Professor himself. At a tiny traffic jam, I was able to make eye contact with him, played a quick air drum, and gave a thumbs up with a big smile. He gave a thumbs up back, a smile (I think, hard to tell through the helmet), and a wave as he started weaving his way through traffic, with Michael close behind. A great experience, and an amazing show!
