the Secret B-Sides are now playing the late night set starting at 11pm. Let's make it a party!
Hey, if nothing else the found will be great at the show and the late night. I heard DOGS will be there.
Quick update… This will be a VERY special show with 'double drums.' To give Vic a proper Asheville welcome and give Teal a proper Asheville send-off, both drummers will be playing that night.
Re: camping
There is nowhere for campers to set up on that property. They don't own the parking area and I'm sure it would be a logistical nightmare to try to allow people to camp. Also there is a KOA campground less than a mile down US70 so that pretty much eliminates any desire for PBC to offer that service.
Re: Floating Action
I was under the impression that The Secret B-Sides are opening (especially since that's what it says on the website). I think Floating Action is playing the late night set on the indoor stage.
I'm sure it's an awesome venue and all, but I still haven't made it out there because they have yet to book a band that appeals to anyone outside of the jam/folk/funk/fusion fanbase. Granted, it IS Asheville so it's always a safe bet that people will pile up in droves to hear Dark Star pantomime their way through some random Dead set from 1977 (*yawn*), but if it's the local venue of the future, there should be more diversity. Mix it up, bra. Just sayin'.
Come to the show early, Floating Action is opening!
With Dark Star Orchestra playing there the night before, they should sell two-day tickets and let folks camp out there Friday night. Also since this venue holds more people than The Orange Peel, I would love to see some even bigger names booked out there. This could be the outdoor music venue we have been waiting for for years.
WTF?! New drummer? What happened to Teal?
