So guess what?? It ends up, that I will NOT be going to this concert AFTER all!!! I can't find anyone to watch my kids for the day on Saturday, because I have no one that I can rely on in my life. (I'm not bitter or anything)

So anyway, I now have (2) GA tickets to try and get rid of. I paid $65.00 each for them. I will pay the shipping to overnight them to whoever will pay that much for them. I can also meet you somewhere in Southern Massachusetts or Rhode Island if anyone knows someone from that area who is looking for tickets.

Anyone who is interested, please PM me.....


I'm going to go and be depressed now.......:sad:

If you want to mail them to me in Rhode Island tomorrow by express mail I can use one and I'll try and sell the other for you. My fourth jumped in after I bought three and I was gonna just buy another tomorrow anyway. Also, I worked at the Providence P.O. for years and the 025-026 Cape mail is local for us so I would get it Weds morning no doubt. Plus my mail man is my buddy that I started with way back in the day. We even went to the Green Mtn VT Lollapalooza in the late 90's, so no worries. Hit me up if you want my addy and I can paypal you before I leave or when I return Monday. Sux you can't go.:down:

At least the sun is dominating that graphic for the 30th! If the weather is anything like here, it can also change in a heartbeat...

Agreed, we gotta get our act together. I think the biggest problem is that it seems all of us are traveling there and don't know the area.

We need to plan a gathering soon so everyone knows where to go. Lots of us won't have electricity to charge our phones because of the camping :wink:

Should we just say the Pumphouse for Friday night? 7 or 8pm?
I'm sure it will be crowded, but there looks to be plenty of other places in the area.

Assuming my flight gets in on time, and we get up there and get our tent set up, we can try and pick a few people up. I guess we will have room for 3.

Is there anywhere closer to the camping? I just googled mapped it and it's about 20 minutes away.
 
There seem to be a few off Hwy 2. I think the problem with walking distance is that everyone in camp will walk to those.

I'm open to Tim's sandwiches in the parking lot with a cooler of beer. (could be a blast)
I think all that matters is that we get together and that it's NOT in the campgrounds since we all might not be allowed in.
 
Within walking distance of the camp grounds there would be a restuarant or 2 in the casino and the holiday inn express has a restuarant also (both are within walking distance). Other than that it is primarily fast food joints. In the car it is about 10 mins to downtown with lot's of choices. Also, there are a number of places on Mountain Road as you drive in to Moncton itself.

A word of warning to bring something warm for after the show, the temp can drop pretty quickly

Let's give it until tonight to let more people see the idea.

Horton's or McD's parking lot with some beers?

I would skip the Tim's parking lot, it is attached to a gas station so they may not like the beers in the lot...McDonald's parking lot, across the street, may be a better option
 
I personally am starting a hunt for the BEST seafood restaurant in Moncton for Friday night... open to guests for sure. Then catch some Z's and get in line early.

My wife developed a shellfish allergy over the last 4 years and doesn't cook the good stuff anymore! So I will be a kid in a candy store when my Lobster hits the table!

Ask the locals, you know they have a favorite spot off the radar.

This place is highly recommended for seafood in Moncton:

Little Louis' Fine Cusine, located in Moncton, New Brunswick

and another that may be ok:

http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/235/152...ia/New-Brunswick/Catch-22-Lobster-Bar-Moncton

If you drive out to Shediac, about 30mins, there will be a lot of small seafood joints, right off the boat...

Littlelouis looks good but not much on the seafood side (especially lobster options) and Lobster 22 looks great but has mixed reviews on facebook and urban spoon.
Not looking to drive 30 minutes away.... any other options from the locals?

Thanks!!!
