Default 04.25.09 - Vanderbilt Stadium - Nashville, TN (merged)

Hands down, this is the most exited I have been about a Dave Show ever.

I heard about the Birmingham show which got me all kinds of exited since that venue is 4 minutes from my parents' house. But I live in Auburn and the Show is on a Monday Night. Then I scrolled down to see the Saturday show in Nashville. My best friend goes to Belmont in Nashville and lives 2 blocks away from Vandy Stadium. I'll pass on the Birmingham show to put all my marbles into Nashville.

This tour is going to be great. The band is back to my two favorite towns, Birmingham and Nashville for the first time in YEARS. Plus with Jeff and Tim coming back on it's going to be amazing. A lot of surprises about this tour so far. I feel like someone is looking down on me after this day, smiling!

Anyone else going to make it to these shows? Thoughts about the stadium as a venue?

This might be the closest venue to Chicago for this spring tour

It's 7 hours from Chicago, but I'll be stopping in Indy to gather the rest of my crew, so the drive won't feel that bad...

Eh it's probably more for me, by the time we get out of the Chicagoland area it always seems like an hour. I'm just bitter right now though

i'm still curious as to what this show is all about. Is it going to be a part of this Green Train event? Not quite sure what all the special attention is about but I'm excited. The stadium should work well. I'd assume the stage will be on the open end of the stadium, a la Vegoose, should be a hell of a time, plenty of room for tailgating. I'm anxious to hear who's playing with them.
