just thought I would make a spot to talk about the upcoming DC area classic recreation. Talk about the venue is positive. Talk so far about possible shows are all about RFK stadium. Hey, isn’t Merriweather kinda DC area? I wasn’t there but ‘85 (?) crazy rain storm show. Ok, I started. Take the ball and run with it.

Hoping it will be a thousand-petal lotus, unfolding in constant renewal... as Jerry described it himself.

The venue is epic. Will be my 3rd show there. The sound is phenomenal and there is space for days. Last time there I was singing bohemian rhapsody with PG and 100 others or was that a dream?

When we went for DSO last year at the Anthem, we could find no parking and almost missed the beginning of the show. There was also some sort of winter/Christmas spectacular thing happening and it was a complete zoo. I think we're doing metro since we'll be out early enough.

I heard there was a ton of parking underground there and it wasn’t a problem at all. 

 

There is a parking garage underneath the venue, though I don't know what the capacity of the garage is.

I DO know, however, that it costs $25 to park in said garage.

Rainman just guessed 7-1-85. Figured I’d toss it out for the 40% chance he’s off.  I assume he’s looked at previous shows on tour and in DC while putting his a beautiful mind skills to work. The entire process took him 3.2 secs.

How tightly do they pack this place? Hoping for a little breathing room! Would be nice to meet any of you folks from the forum, I'll be set up with my stuff near the soundboard, wearing a bright looking spiral and glasses 🤓

There is more space than most anyone would want.  While I hope DSO fills that shit up (it holds 6,000), last year I was able to easily to get all 'Sound of Music' with it:
