August 26th,Holmdel,NJ PNC Bank Arts Center Tailgate

[Suicidebree]

Opie and Anthony Traveling Virus Tailgate Party
Where: Either the back parking lot or as close tot the venue as we can get
When: August 26th 2:00pm

Wanted to see if there was any interest in getting together before the show. I live very close and could bring a grill/ beer pong table. Whatever else we can think of. Try to get banner to advertise the location. Just a few dirt bags having a good time. I'm going with at very least six people.

[Ballbuster1]

I got tickets to this show since I'll be out of town when the Philly
show is on. No doubt we can get there early and hang.

[badcellphoneguy]

they guys i am game. PM me with details and stuff to bring.

[happytypinggirl]

There will definately be a huge tailgate planned for PNC. Not sure if people are looking for seperate tailgates for people from different boards, or not, but as far as i'm concerned-- ALL fans are welcome, whether they are wackbag, paltalk, fba, .net, no board or any other board out there.

[jrsaint]

i wonder if master po want to protect you, happy typing girl?

[JonBenetRamsey]

i am in for grilling and beering on this day

[NoSurviivors]

tickets still available?

[GoodDaySir]

My brother in law and I are hitting this one with a couple of sandwiches, a case of beer and whatever else we happen to bring. Sure would love to join you guys at the tailgate though. :)

[Ballbuster1]

tickets still available?
I just checked ticketmaster. There are still tickets available
in all price ranges.

[Earth2murf]

I will be the dude drinking beer with the big titted blonde.....oh yea there will be a WOW sticker on my truck....I will have an O&A shirt on and i will be high as a Kite..so i should be easy to pick out

[WaddleDoodle]

I'll be at the PNC show. See y'all there.

[IDontCare05]

I will be there.....Can't wait!


I will be bringin lots of shit for all to enjoy....

[Hudson]

I'll be there in spirit as I fly fish near my new home in Montana.

[lacisanchor]

Cant wait for the show... I'm sure there will lots of talk about tailgating as the date comes.

[MJMANDALAY]

Add another 1/2 dozen to the party... Just PM here or myspace what ya need.

[nolajersey]

I will be there! I can't wait to tailgate.

[flounder]

I'll be there nice and early with 5 other guys grilling and drinking my ass off. I got 4 tickets from ticketmaster the day they came out and I won 2 more tickets on Free FM Today. Anybody have any Idea what type of seats you get when you win from a radio station like free fm?

[LisaNY]

Ill be there with my hubby!! :D

[CallmeQtie]

I'll be there. Got 2 tix, not sure who I am bringing but I will be there!

[Coll76]

i can't find it on Tickemaster. Is it sold out?

[Billy Vegas]

Whats up all?

I have 10 tickets at my disposal. I figure I'll probably have 4 extra by the time of the show... so if anyone wants seats as opposed to the lawn, hit me up. Face value + the stupid ticketmaster charge and they are yours... I don't want to profit... just want everyone to have a good time.

As for tailgating... you're damn right. I don't know how much you have to organize the tailgating since I'm pretty sure it will just be one big tailgate party with wandering, drunk/high vagabonds... I'm fucking excited.

I'll have beer, hopefully some beer pong, definitely a grill, and if you're all lucky, I'll bust out a few special recipies for the grill and MAYBE, just maybe.. if you bring me a beer I like, you can have some.

Fucking A... I cannot wait.

-Billy Vegas

[caniseeyourtaint]

Should we all wear our wackbag nametags?

[Deluxomatic]

I don't think the Arts Center knows what it's in for.

[Billy Vegas]

I don't think the Arts Center knows what it's in for.


You are correct, sir. It most certaintly does not. For thier own good, if they were smart, they would have everyone possible selling beer. I can't imagine them having the usual beer lines and having OnA fans be understanding enough to wait in line.

PNC: Get them kegs popped and sell them EVERYWHERE YOU HAVE OPEN ROOM.

Otherwise, prepare to be shocked.

[nolajersey]

There is no such thing as a short beer line at PNC. EVER!

[Danesy]

Hey... I got someone on here willing to sell me a ticket so I will be there... and lookin' forward to hangin' out with the gang... I am so fuckin' psyched... I wish it wasn't so far away.

[nolajersey]

How far of a drive is it for you Danes?

[Cum Dumpster]

I'll be there with my boyfriend & looking for anyone to hang with!

[Dannyspubes]

Ill be there with 3 friends. just post the info on what lot and where and ill be there...... O & A PARTY ROCK!!!!!

[IDontCare05]

Well I'm always open to meeting new wackbaggers and of course the old ones.......Like I said I'll be there and most likely near one of many tail-gate parties. Looking forward to meeting you guys....haven't been to a O&A event in awile.

[The Duch]

I don't think the Arts Center knows what it's in for.

HA! I think you're right! PNC is much smaller than Meadowlands, Having gone to all XFL games, the Meadowlands (home of the Giants and Jets) couldn't handle the O & A fans with the tiny crowd of the NY/NJ Hitmen.

I've also got two pairs of seats in the 30x available for cover price. PM me if you want.

[Gilligan]

I'll be at PNC. Wearing my O&A Army cap and sporting a WOW sticker on my vehicle. See you all there.

[Dani524]

I'll be there too. How will we know everyone?

Dani

[Lil Precious]

I will have a WOW sticker on my car so thats how you will know me...

[njdave02]

I'll be wearing a "spread the virus" shirt and I have a WOW sticker on my truck. Oh yeah I have a goat tee too, should be easy to find...

[boybBOYTOUCHERB]

Will the tailgate area be called "MANTOWN"?

[nolajersey]

Will the tailgate area be called "MANTOWN"?

There should be a big banner that says Welcome to Mantown. :clap:

[Halo Five]

I have 4 tix... not sure who is coming with me yet but I am sure we down for a lil BBQ action.

[MJMANDALAY]

Whoever gets Voted to take the lead on this PM me, I can get my hands on some party supplies (ice cups plates etc).Not the supplies some of you were thinking, I know. And I think acess to the parking lots starts at 11.

[Cromwell]

they guys i am game. PM me with details and stuff to bring.

I will be attending with the above adorable bear-like creature.

PM *him* for "stuff to bring" (since much like my hero E-rock - "I bring nothing to the table" :icon_mrgr )

[CallmeQtie]

I haven't been to an O&A event in such a long time. Between working a second job and a BF I haven't had much time out and about. Got rid of both those things so now it's on like donkey kong!

[MeltedHelmet]

I was talking to a guy from Holmdel Police, and he said "The New Jersey State Police have total control of the Opie and Anthony show in Aug." I laughed and laughed, I though to myself bwahhhhaaaa DUDE DUDE and went happily on my way beacuse I am not a Jersey State Trooper or a Holmdel Police officer.

There are New Jersey State Police barracks pretty much on site there. When I used to see Phish shows at PNC the whole place would be teeming with state police, driving up grassy hills, driving all over the place, talking to everyone to try to get a guage on what was going on. They never had half the control of a Phish crowd.

Yeah...some chick's gonna WOW a cop and he's gonna haul her in? I don't think so.

The cops never had control of the crowds at PNC during Ozzfest.

[IPushedBen]

[shockme76]

I am coming ...8 all together....lets do it!!!!!

[GoodDaySir]

It seemed like it was more than just hinted at, are the boys going to be at this thing? Opie mentioned that they were cutting their vacations short "to do the show on the 26th". I just kind of assumed that it was a travelling comedy tour that had their name on it, but are they going to actually be there?

[happytypinggirl]

Personally, i'd love to see a joint board tailgate, sponsored by everyone on Wackbag, FBA, paltalk, and anyone else who wants to join in. I'm new and I don't presume to know all the politics, and if that would make eveyrone miserable or not, but I thought i'd throw the thought out there. Maybe even have banners with the board names and some laptops set up on air card where people who aren't on any board, and just passing through can come and see what its about. (is that really gay? i'm sorry- i'm like that sometimes).

I'm new on WB so i won't try and take the lead or anything, but i'm organizing a bunch of paltalk people, and gathering some people from the other board, so i'm happy to coordinate efforts if that's welcome, (in my eyes, a fan is a fan is a fan, and all the boards/paltalk people should be able to to hang together,) but if not, I understand-- that's fine too, we can just visit each other. But I'm volunteering to help out in any capacity. :)

My thinking for the tailgate is simple --- get there as early as possible, and park in the farthest lot possible- (so while all the people pull in to park, they move up to the close spots, and we have lots of spots open for people to join up all day in the back)-- put up a bunch of banners (i've stolen a few from road shows over the last few months) and have everyone from the boards park as close to each other as possible. I figured mostly people will just bring lots of stuff and share (foodwise) but it would be great to co-ordinate some things like beer, ice, plates and stuff (see mjmandaly) boomboxes, tarps or coverings in case of rain or extreme sun, maybe a keg, etc.

Any thoughts?

[Tax Kuntz]

are the boys going to be at this thing?

Yes, they will be there.

HTG- I'm sure the tailgate party will be a fun time for everyone. When fans of the show get together for an event, I have yet to see any problems among them.
Alcohol usually brings everyone together, along with some wowing by the ladies.

Feel free to coordinate all you wish, the more the merrier.

[Joey Bond]

well htg id be happy to attend any tailgate you put together pm me and let me know where you will be setting up

[jerseyrob]

I have two extra tickets to the PNC event that I would like to sell. Face value. Email me if you are interested.

[Flea_Man]

I'll be there. Section 403 row K. See you all there. Can't wait for the big ass tailgate party.

[FullBallz]

Same here. I have 2 extras to sell. Face Value + TM fees = $100 for the pair. 2nd row in the 402 section. They're good seats. I had my college graduation at PNC and there isn't a bad seat there. E-mail me if you're interested.

[Cromwell]

I laughed and laughed, I though to myself bwahhhhaaaa DUDE DUDE and went happily on my way

closest hotel is the Hazlet Inn on route 35 in Hazlet, never stayed there but it's like 2 miles away (back roads but pretty easy to get to)

800-664-6835 is the #

there's also a bunch of places to stay that are just off the Parkway but not as close to PNC

[doodad]

I envy you guys that live in NYC and get to go to the O&A activities. By the way, I was just joking this morning about the hypocrite shit, I just couldn't get back in to explain myself. So all of you that read it and were pissed at me: calmo!

I drive a fucking truck and they are the only thing that keeps me sane during the day. I would have taken the day off if I made fuck you money like they do. Some day I will...some day...

[Halo Five]

Should be a good time... see all you Baggers there

[Cromwell]

We should do a "party convoy" from LI. Kinda like any given Sunday that the Jets are playing "home" (in the Meadowlands).

I'm in Westbury, and Badcellphoneguy is in, Wantagh.

Where are you?

[Sheed 4daBabys]

I am in Farmingdale, How long of a drive is it

[Joey Bond]

I got a room at the hilton that is recommended on the pnc web page as a hotel nearby anyone looking for a room there should check into it I paid like 105 a night for a nice room.I am going up on friday and checking out on sunday can anyone in that area let me know if they know the hotel and how far it is from the show and also if there is anything to do in that area also remember my chick is 18 so bars are out of the question unless they either dont card or dont mind fake i.d's.

Someone posted something about some shirts being made for this event I cant seem to find that post anyone have a link to order the shirts

[ceeps04]

Coming up from DC. Can't wait for the Beer Pong Tournament...For money

[Jimmy's Dignity]

I'm rolling down with 7 other fuckers from college...we're planning on doing some sort of a tailgate too. If you guys have/rock banners/flags I'm most definately comin over. I promise not to mooch too much :action-sm

[turkyman]

Joey Bond,

The website pitches the Iselin Hilton because that is where they house the artists. I used to work at the Prudential across the street and you would be able to see at least a dozen tour buses parked there.

The Hilton is about 15 miles north of PNC, but it's a nice place.

[Chain Rink]

if you buy seated tickets, can you get to the lawn area?

thanks

[Ballbuster1]

I haven't been to the PNC Center yet, but if it's like the Tweeter in Camden
then yes you can. I hope so. I like to walk around a bit during long shows.

Ughh...He is aweful...it's the same joke over and over.


I'm going to have to buy a bigger memory card for my camera. I know i'll probably be taking at least 200-300 pictures for the board.

[Major Burns]

I am in Farmingdale, How long of a drive is it

About an hour & a half, two hours, depending on the traffic to the shore.

And, since I took advantage of the "beaner discount," the BF and I will be there as well.

[GoodDaySir]

Same here...

Ughh...He is aweful...it's the same joke over and over.


I don't really see or hear too much of him so to me he ain't that bad. When I do hear him it's always "beaner" this and "beaner" that.

That Hilton is right around the Woodbridge business district, practically across the street from a major NJ Transit rail station. Pretty nice hotel and yeah, it's about 15 miles away from PNC. Real easy to get there from the Hilton...get out of the lot, bang a left, immediately get into the far right lane as the exit to the GSP comes at you fairly quick, get onto Parkway south (the first of the two Parkway ramps) and just head straight to exit 116.

As far as anything to do, what you can do is get out of the Hilton, follow the same instructions to get onto the Parkway and get off at the first exit which is for route 1. If you go onto Route 1 north you'll hit Woodbridge Mall, a TGIFridays and a couple of other places. If you go south you'll hit Menlo Park Mall, a great steakhouse, a movie theater, all sorts of stuff to do.

[Danesy]

I have a quick question for anyone, everyone.... I have a ticket, no one wants to go with me so I am flyin' solo.... my car shit the bed so I was wonderin' if anyone was carpoolin' down there, I live in Bayonne.... NJ that is....

Thanks!!!

[turkyman]

I work at PNC as a side job so I can answer just about any question anybody has. If you have tickets for house seats, you are free to roam around the lawn.

For this show, I doubt the ladies will have a hard time using the facilities (see: sausage fest). However, there are three separate areas with bathrooms (one on either side of the lawn and one downstairs from the lawn, next to the first aid station).

Any other questions, let me know.

[Shane1V]

I got tickets to this show since I'll be out of town when the Philly
show is on. No doubt we can get there early and hang.

yes... I must hang with some of you tools. You like beer?

[jimmyolsenblues]

I am driving from Virginia to come, I will you guys there. I am bringing lite beer cause I am a fatty who needs more love.

[Ballbuster1]

yes... I must hang with some of you tools. You like beer?

OK, no one wants to carpool.... fine!!! I will hitchhike and when I get killed it will be all the pests fault!!!! :rolleyes:

[Corinthia]

I have a friend who is going to be driving in a 31 foot rv..is there a special place to park it on the PNC grounds?? Lemme know :)

[turkyman]

I have a friend who is going to be driving in a 31 foot rv..is there a special place to park it on the PNC grounds?? Lemme know :)

Get there EARLY and park in the grass lot between the north and south lots. That is the only place I can think of that would accomodate a 31' RV. Otherwise, you would have to park it sideways and take up 5 spots.

[NJRedhead]

Hey turkyman,

Any ideas for the best spot to park to get out fairly quickly, someone has told me there is an "overflow" lot...I couldnt believe they sell parking spots for $30. Thats a crime! Not even GA is that much! Thanks for the help!

Sue :action-sm

[GoodDaySir]

If you're lucky they'll let you park in the grass lot. I went to see Bruce Springsteen, Phil Lesh and Friends and then Ringo Starr at PNC this summer. I was able to park in the grass lot for Springsteen and Ringo Starr. For Phil Lesh I got to PNC a bit before 11:30 in the morning and was immediately directed to that auxillary lot across the Parkway. That was for a show that started at 4:30. Unless I'm wrong it seemed very selective as to the type of show that they do this with (they did it for the same act two or three years ago).

I'm getting there early but I sure hope I don't wind up in that stupid lot.

Sue :action-sm

It depends where you're coming from. If you're coming from the north, try to park in the regular lot on the north side (cones and minimum wage parking attendants will direct you that way anyway), but park at the lot closest to the Parkway. It dumps out right there. For the south, the overflow lot would be a good idea because you would already have your vehicle on the correct side of the highway, but you have to walk or take a shuttle to get back there.

The overflow lot will take too much time to walk back and forth (it's about a mile long path).

I have worked many concerts and I can tell you that no matter what, it shouldn't take very long to empty out the lot. Sold out shows (17,500) have emptied in under 45 minutes. You shouldn't have too much of a problem getting out pretty quickly.

The $30 spots are "premium spots" located close to the entrance gates. It makes people feel special. However, it causes the opposite of what I recommended above. It will take longer to get out because of everybody closer to the exit trying to merge and leave.

[turkyman]

For Phil Lesh I got to PNC a bit before 11:30 in the morning and was immediately directed to that auxillary lot across the Parkway. That was for a show that started at 4:30. Unless I'm wrong it seemed very selective as to the type of show that they do this with (they did it for the same act two or three years ago).

I'm getting there early but I sure hope I don't wind up in that stupid lot.

I think it was partly because of the merchant tents set up in the auxilary lot and partly because of the fact that people were there so early for a concert that started at 4:30. If they could put everbody in one general area, they could control things a little better. I spent plenty of time in that lot during that show, and I wasn't too happy about it.

lol...I was one of the more well behaved guys in the lot on that day. :icon_wink

[NJRedhead]

Thanks Turkyman,

I dont want to sit for long after the show but at the same time I want to be close to hang with the pests. I wish I knew the center better. Oh well I guess we'll get there early. When will they start letting you in to park? Thanks! Sue

[fido]

we have four seats together,
but two of our friends are elsewhere, and we were hoping to make a trade for anyone in our section,

we'll throw some moula in for the exchange,
don't forget the PNC beers are real expensive

we are in Section 403,
Row F, seats 106-112

if you have seats real close to here, and are willing to do a swap,
we'll make it worth your time

we are also looking for two other seats in the same neighborhood
lemme know the going rate for these

[happytypinggirl]

PEOPLE SEEM TO WANT TO START PLANNING THIS THING NOW, SO HERE IS WHAT I POSTED AT FBA TO GET THE EARLY PLANNING STARTED. AS MENTIONED, I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO COORDINATE THIS BETWEEN BOTH BOARDS IF YOU GUYS WANT ME TO-- DON'T WANT TO OVERSTEP MY BOUNDS THOUGH OR PISS ANYONE OFF :icon_mrgr

I think the early people should arrive at around 11- maybe even meet up at a rest stop near by and drive in together to start setting up banners, tables, chairs, whatever---and everyone else join in when they can. My plan is always to park as far to the back as the guards will let you, so the area stays open to more tailgaters as late as possible. If you guys want me to coordinate this-- just add in what you want to bring-- (or just bring shit, you don't have to be on a list, of course), and I'll periodically repost the updated list combining both boards. Also, let me know if you want to be in the 'founding group'. Those of you in the premium lot will have to either walk over to join the others, or have your own premium tailgate :icon_mrgr .

You could go there anytime. There are no gates or parking attendant windows to pass through. The only thing is they will fence off areas during the day of the show. But, nobody will stop you from getting there at 7 AM if you wanted to.

The bottom 3 or 4 rows on the left side are general parking for northbound people. Also, the grass area between the road circle and the Parkway is for parking.

[Ballbuster1]

Otto & George have been added to the show. Nice!
I'll be bringing some chairs and I have a couple of dining covers I
can bring to keep out of the sun or rain and definately beer and
some eats. See you there!

[NullNVoid]

OK, no one wants to carpool.... fine!!! I will hitchhike and when I get killed it will be all the pests fault!!!! :rolleyes:

I'll hit your body & drag it down the parkway on my back bumper, and by the time I park, it will be a bloody, pulvarized mess of a tailgate party conversation piece. "What the fuck was THAT?" :action-sm

Sorry bro, if I were in your area I'd give ya a lift.

[NullNVoid]

Wish List
XM Boomboxes or cars with good stereos


I'll have a CD full of bits downloaded from OAV, as well as Demented World. So my car will be blasting the goodness and the beer will flow.

Is it possible/advisable to pick a section in advance and tell people where to meet? or better to just show up and find a place to park. Do they block off some of the lots and make you park in the order you arrive? Or can you go directly to a further back lot any time?

Anyone else receive this:

Hello, this is Ticketmaster Customer Service with an important alert for your upcoming event. OPIE AND ANTHONY'S TRAVELLING VIRUS scheduled at PNC BANK ARTS CENTER on SATURDAY AUGUST 26, 2006, at 5:30 PM , has changed times. The event will now take place at 7:30 , WITH THE DOORS OPENING AT 5:30 PM . Original tickets will be honored for the new time.

[turkyman]

Just got that in an email. That's a standard start time for most concerts at PNC. I'm still wondering how the village area is going to be set up. I assume one of the top lots will be used for it, similar to Ozzfest.

[YourMom'sBox]

Does anyone know what time they will be letting cars in now with the later time?

[Susan]

Hiya! I'm trying to sell my ticket for the Traveling Virus at PNC. I'm selling it for face value of $39.50 (You don't have to pay the taxes and fees). It's one ticket: section 403, Row G.

If you, or someone you know, wants to buy it, please message me!


Thanks! :icon_bigg

[turkyman]

Does anyone know what time they will be letting cars in now with the later time?

It's an open lot. Feel free to get there at 4 AM if you are so inclined.

Well, well, well, it seems as though nofate has stepped up to the plate and is goin' to get me to the PNC. I would like to thank you all for your concern & offers.... while they were appreciated.... it seems as though this issue has been resolved & a real man has stepped up to the plate.:icon_roll

I checked today as I haven't decided if I can attend or not, but just an FYI to those others who do not have tickets yet, there are only lawn seats left. That means ALOT of tickets have been sold.

Turkyman can probably tell you exactly how many people fit under the roof at PNC (if I recall correctly it's 7,000+) and the lawn holds 10,000. I think it might be a little crowded.

God help the PNC.

[GoodDaySir]

I believe it's 6,900 for the seating capacity and another 10,600 for the lawn. I don't think this show's going to sell out but I wouldn't be surprised if it was the best attended one of the bunch.

[Cromwell]

After reading all the recaps from the Boston show - I'm totally psyched for the "Virus" rolling into Jersey (whoah, whoah, whoah):icon_cool

7,500 seats and 10,000 lawn seats. Last count I saw, ticket sales were close to 9,000. This does not count any reserved for corporate seats and radio promotions. So, if 92.3 is holding 200 for giveaways, then it won't show up on the ticket counts.

[AnthonyC60]

getting my tickets today..gonna bring Jack and maybe some Johnny Walker...and some heros.....sitting lawn cause that the fuckin way to go..look foward to seeing everyone there

[turkyman]

Ticket counts are at 8,800 as of last night. As I said before, that does not include promos/giveaways and corporate seats. So, it should hit 10,000 by showtime.

It might be a little more than that Jim...

I imagine the walk up is going to be pretty sizable, no?

[turkyman]

It's possible, but I don't see walk-ups topping more than 1 to 2 thousand. It all depends on the weather and advertising for walk-ups. Most people already have bought their tickets, so the number will most likely stay pretty close to what it currently is. Either way, they are already past the attendance of many shows that have been at PNC this year. Last night, Poison/Cinderella had about 8K. Ashlee "coattail-riding" Simpson couldn't get more than 4,000. Apples and oranges, I know...but just giving some background.

[turkyman]

Latest count is at just over 9,000 tickets sold.

How many people attended the (YAWN) Paul Simon show? I went with a friend of mine, and it looked relatively crowded. Just trying to gauge whether to walk up on the day of the show.

[GoodDaySir]

Hey Turkyman, quick question here...I've seen people with grills in the PNC lots. Is it just charcoal grills that they allow or will they allow those propane ones too. Is there any type of grill they won't allow?

[turkyman]

Propane is allowed. Just be careful transporting it.

[Radioguy]

I think this raises the possibility of a future booking closer to NYC. MSG must be jealous.

[assWhack]

I think this raises the possibility of a future booking closer to NYC. MSG must be jealous.

Yeah, MSG only holds 20000. If NJ got atleast 10000, i'm sure NY could have gotten atleast 10000.

[TheDave1022]

I have two extra tickets available. Lawn area for $20 each plus shipping ($5 to ship Priority Mail 1 Day). Message me if interested.

[higgtree]

I'm looking to get there as early as possible... I know how shore traffic is.... blech..... and it seriously sold 10k tickets? Can that place really hold that many??

[McDonaldMouth]

7,500 actual seats.. another 10K can fit on the lawn, should be a packed house.

[turkyman]

Quick note for those planning to come late-ish...It took me 1.5 hours to get from mile 117.5 to the lot yesterday because of the Beatstock traffic. This was the worst I have ever seen the traffic two hours before gates opened, and it was mainly due to all the people coming from north Jersey. The crowd for O&A should probably be spread out more evenly, but just be ready to sit in traffic for a while.

I was travelling north from Seaside Heights on Saturday and couldn't believe the amount of traffic heading in for that Beatstock thing. I think it looked even worse heading on the southbound lanes. This was I think about 3 or so. That was crazy.

I'll be in the lot next week about noon with a charcoal grill and some beers. No way am I sitting in that mess of traffic.

[FCCSucks]

Since this thread is getting more traffic than my thread -- I need help. My hotel is the Westin in times square. What is the best way to get to the PNC Bank center? I'm guessing a cab to penn station, then the train to the Matawan station. A flyer says that there is a free PNC shuttle to and from the venue. Is that correct? And how long is the show? The last shuttle back to the station leaves at 11:30 pm. I would hate to miss any of the show. PLEASE HELP!

[Shane1V]

Great! Thanks!!:icon_mrgr

Can't wait!
Hoping to get my group of 8 to go there around 3PM to tailgate.

What % of the people there you think will be O&A fans?? I'm guessing 60%.
What ya think?

Don't know much (or nothing) about the Matawan shuttle. But, I do know that the show will end at 11. Although the boys are fancy gentlemen, I don't think they're willing to pay Holmdel a hefty fine for breaking the 11 PM noise ordinance.

Your transportation route sounds about right. You'll have to take the NJ Coast Line with Bay Head as its last stop.

[ron2000]

I have one extra Premium ticket for PNC (8/26). The location is excellent -

If anyone knows if this shuttle is not happening pleas let me know. I am planning my trip around this and I don't want to F it up.

Thanks.

[righty]

I can't wait for Saturday. Thinking about the show will make the week go by so much faster. Got seats in Sec 101 Row X. Gonna leave for the show around 1. i have a feeling that its going to take me longer then when i went to a concert there about 2 weeks ago.

I'm sure if the show goes long and you miss the shuttle, someone can
hook you up with a ride back to the station. It's very close. Just get
there early and get to know a few folks and all will work out.
My wife & I will be staying at the Hilton a few miles up the road
so we will have a car. Don't sweat the details. Just get there.:icon_wink

Stop by for a beer wackbaggers.

Can't f'n wait.

Just found out we're going too. I'll look for you guys. I'm psyched - didn't think we were going to make it to this one!

[McDonaldMouth]

Is anyone else going to be parked in the preferred lot?? Not that I'm a fancy man or anything, but its a bitch of a hike back to the free lots and I gave up on riding the School bus 20 years ago.. The F.B.A. folks are planning to party far away from the gates, to avoid problems, can't say I blame them...

Guys......
I can't post yet (don't know why), but I tried contacting the PNC Arts Center. Calling the phone number (732) 335-0400 absolutely gets you NOWHERE as its all computerized and you can never reach a live human being to talk to. I tried e-mailing them and here is the response I got: (see below)
I DON"T BELIEVE THEY ALLOW ANYONE TO HAVE AN OPEN FLAME. that means no Grilling, which totally sucks. Do you guys think they are bluffing?


"Parking areas open at 2:00 PM. Please be advised that early arrivals may be directed to satellite areas and restroom facilities may not be available until later in the day. Tailgating is permissible as long as you only occupy one space and there are no open flames permitted."

Or I'd be willing to trade for a pair at the Tweeter Center

[OJ can scar]

They usually let the 1st come 1st serve park in the parking lot closest to the main gate of the venue. I've been there for a few concerts, and i've never seen a grill in action, so I dont know if they allow them. But Im bringing mine anyhow, so fuck em.
And also this place is crawling with NJ state police.

I'll be the fat guy by a red Nissan Nismo. With plenty of beer.

See you fuckers there.

Oh yeah, how many of yous are comming from Sussex Cty NJ? Maybe we could convoy down from a general meeting spot, maybe the Rockaway mall or some shit.

:drunk: :drunk: :drunk: :drunk:

[JPARCH]

Right on!

I'll have a Red Nissan Xterra. I am also gonna bring a grill and plenty of beer.
I say we all bring fucking grills and smoke the shit out of parking lot.

With all the people bringing grills are they gonna be able to do anything about it, I dont think so.

Where are you comming in from?

[GoodDaySir]

Also, I have seen grills going. PLUS in those auxillary lots across the highway, oftentimes you see people park in one space and tailgate in the space behind. So her email's a bit off. That might be just for that main lot close to the venue.

[JPARCH]

I am coming from northern NJ (Rochelle Park).
I'll be there with 4 other pests

[turkyman]

Here's my PM response to JPARCH:

The retarts there are probably playing the corporate line. I work EMS there, so I'm not too familiar with the enforcement of the rules, but when I am walking or driving through the lots, there are plenty of people with both gas and charcoal grills going. It's part of the tailgating mentality! Therefore, I say grilling will be fine, don't worry.

I have a direct # to PNC, which when I called it on Saturday went right to a person. The # is 732-203-2500.

Also, in regards to enforcement of the grills, I never see security patrolling the lots, just NJSP. They don't bother enforcing public intoxication or underage drinking, so I don't think they're goanna care if people are grilling burgers.

Hope this helped, and where should I stop by for my free beer and burger?

ETA: The open flame comment might be in regards to campfires and/or bonfires, which I could understand as being prohibited since any open burning of this type is prohibited throughout the State of NJ.

UPDATE After hearing about the late opening of the parking, I called Club Soda Kenny and he arranged for parking to be open at 1:30.

Hope that helps a bit.

See you there.

[jostlrs26]

Will the Premium Parking also be opening at 1:30?

[GoodDaySir]

That doesn't seem right. Those lots open before 1:30. I've been in those lots before 11:30 to either buy tickets or to start tailgating for a triple bill show. Plenty of times, too.

[Legate]

Anyone know where the ticket sales # currently stands?

[Joey Bond]

Is anyone planning on doing anything the night before the show?

[turkyman]

Anyone know where the ticket sales # currently stands?

10,069 this morning. That does not count the comp. tickets. When they announced that they broke 10,000, the count was at just over 9,000. Therefore, I would estimate the total in attendance to be near 11,000.

That's awesome. Well I hope those with great seats up front bring a camera and turn around and take some shots of the huge crowd. Said pictures should be used in response to any "four listeners" comments from Howard zombies or any other douchebags on message boards. You really seem to be in the know and I'm holding out hope that great seats will be released on ticketmaster last minute. What do you think the odds are that it occurs? The best seats I've ever gotten for shows were always a day or two before the show.

I say to that: Good luck, bro. I think the best tickets get snatched up mostly by corporate people and ticket brokers. The rest are probably sold right away on Ticketmaster.

Holy shit, by the hand of Peter Jennings my strategy once again worked. I just got 3 seats in section 103, dead center off ticketmaster. Went back and searched a minute later, and section 303 row K came up. Make that 10,072 paid for Saturday :action-sm

[turkyman]

Proved me wrong. Fuck Ticketmaster. Good job, though.

[follow this logic]

I have a couple of questions.

1) Will the lawn section be arrange with specific seating or can anyone just sit anywhere? Because my tix specify section, row, and seat.

2) Will you be able to bring food and drinks to the lawn section?

1) Sit anywhere...I think Ticketmaster does that for counting purposes.

2) Food and drink purchased in the venue are allowed. I think they allow sealed beverages (non-alcoholic) at the gate, but not sure if it varies by show.

[needles_sugar]

So wut music will you guys be blasting in the tailgate on saturday??????????

[GoodDaySir]

So wut music will you guys be blasting in the tailgate on saturday??????????

I'm a Deadhead but I'm gonna have to bring my AC/DC, Metallica, Tool, stuff like that.

Anyone getting there early? I'm shooting for noon. I KNOW those lots open before 1:30.

[YourMom'sBox]

That doesn't seem right. Those lots open before 1:30. I've been in those lots before 11:30 to either buy tickets or to start tailgating for a triple bill show. Plenty of times, too.

As Deb (HappyTypingGirl) explained on FBA, they decided to set up the lots to open at 1:30 to try to cut back on tailgating... I guess they think that everyone will cause a ruckus if we are there drinking from early on in the morning... They underestimate the power of the drunken pests!

[DoughBoy]

I'll be there thanks to the kindness of a wonderful gal. I'll really have to give her a rimjob for this one. :)

[ron2000]

I heard it might rain on Saturday. Tailgaters may want to bring tarps & stuff to keep things dry. The Weather Channel predicts a 40% chance of rain in Holmdel

[happytypinggirl]

I haven't posted info on the tailgate here in a few weeks, because I gathered that nobdy here had an interest in joining our group.

But EVERYONE is are welcome and encouraged to join up and party with us.

We have about 65 cars signed up, some of them WBers. I gave up on trying to make it a big offical WB - FBA party, but anyone and everyone is still welcome to join us. We'll have tons of food and bear, (er....beer). Any questions, PM me or go read the now ENORMOUS post on FBA.

And yes, Kenny and Keith completely blew my mind yesterday. When they heard we had done so much planning for the tailgate, and the PNC was planning to keep the lot closed until 3:30, they took care of it and got them to open two hours earlier. So gates will open at 1:30 and the early tailgate set up crew will be waiting there at 1.

THANK YOU CLUB SODA KENNY AND THANK YOU KEITH THE COP!

Now that we got THAT out of the way. We asked people to bring plenty of stuff, so if you guys just see a shit load of cars with people having fun, come up and grab a fucking beer. Like I said the last day the show was live, just fucking come early and hang with other fans, dont need to be on this board, or that board, (although, if you are on this board MilkManMike will like you more :rolleyes: ) just come wanting to have fun, and if you dont have a beer, hopefully, you can just grab one. I am saying right now, I am bring 2 cases of beer that is just for people that walk up, so have a beer on me.

heh, I bet they will have FBA on the beers so you can shill that fucking site a little more you fucking no job having, child neglecting zero

Ehh, you just can't make everyone happy. Either way, come have a beer and hang out.

[follow this logic]

[BLACKIEhugeHANDS]

can't wait for the party tomorrow... i've been waiting to go to one of these "road show like" events since hearing about the O&A softball game from a few years back when that took place...

[Radioguy]

An FTL post....brings back memories...

[roadrage]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DONT LET IT RAIN TOMORROW! Either way I will be there drunk and laughing, I already told my girlfriend I will be a problem that will have to be delt with when I get home tomorrow night.......Saddly she responded with please dont get so drunk that you wet the bed. God I am worthless.

[elphantasmo81]

Make sure you get to PNC early!!

My jug band, Wahoo Skiffle Crazies (http://www.wahooband.com), will be performing in the Village as soon as the doors open.

Hope to see some of you there!

[turkyman]

Thanks for the beer offer Mister Dugout. Let's all make tomorrow's show go down in history as the best one out of all of the shows. Maybe they will plan another event next year at PNC if this one is so successful. And people, BRING CAMERAS!!!!

[happytypinggirl]

He does have a point, you shill whore. :)

See you tomorrow.

quoted for truth and proud of it!

See you all tomorrow. My car is stuffed to the gills with food and drink including a 2.5 gallon jug of sangria, lots of beer, dogs, burgers, etc. And PLEASE don't be scared off by the threat of rain. Last Sunday a few people bagged on the softball game because of the faggoty weatherman, and the day turned out to be perfect. Even if it rains, who cares!!!!! If you drink enough, you won't feel it.

See you all bright and early tomorrow.

[Tooz]

Just found out a few minutes ago that my buddie's dad can't make and he has an extra ticket for me ! SWEET !!

[Cage]

To everyone going tomorrow, make sure you check out everything in the O&A village. Try your luck and win some very special shit.

[GLENN_THE_TOOL]

is parking in the lot free? do you need a ticket to the show to park? i couldn't get a ticket (due to personal hardships that required me spending a shitload of money recently that i wasn't planning on), but i would like to at least come down and hang out with the tailgaters for the afternoon.

[PatFromMoonachie]

...We'll have tons of food and bear...
Steve's gonna be there?? :rolleyes:

Parking lot's always free.

good. i've never been to the PNC Center, and sometimes venues charge for parking as well. just wanted to make sure.

Definately get there. There seem to be a few people with extra tickets.
If they can't sell them, maybe some kind soul can hook you up.
No sense throwing them in the trash if someone can use them.

[Major Burns]

If it rains are the people who have lawn seats pretty much fucked?


Yep.

Good thing I got the beaner discount, so I'm only out $10 a ticket.

That's fine, if you live close to the venue, or have a car.

[Ballbuster1]

Just finished charging up the batteries in the camera.
Should get lots of good pics to post.
See everyone there!

[lizardmannj]

Hi:

I have one ticket for which I paid $175 and my friend from work can't go. I cannot seem to sell this one ticket. On Ebay everyone thought it was for 2 tickets. Anyway the ticket was a $64 ticket VIP and I am giving it away free. It is 9 rows from Center Stage Sec 102.

You can meet me at the PNC Bank. Please write back so we can meet and figure out where I can give you the ticket.

I hate to be wasteful.

Oh if you are a girl it would be great if you could pay me back with some nice oral in my car. LOL

Write me. Lizardmannj (http://www.wackbag.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=32726)

[higgtree]

If it rains, will the show still go on? And what time is a good time to get there? I live in Staten Island, and I wanna say it normally takes me 20-25 minutes to get there w/o too much traffic....

[Ballbuster1]

If it rains, will the show still go on?
It's an indoor venue, so yes the show will go on.

[jpc165]

See you all there tomorrow. I am staying in Point Pleasant for the weekend. Me and the girl will probably be there around 2pm. I have 2 extra tickets in section 301 that I will most likely be giving away for free if anyone is interested...send me a pm and i'll get you the tickets tomorrow in the lot.

I have the preferred parking as well, so hopefully there will be some tailgaiting going on in the fancy parking area!


I always stay at this motel when I'm in the Point Pleasant area cause some dipshit has his wireless router wide open for me to hop on. Gotta love stealing internet access. Lets hope I don't go downloading kiddie porn tonight.


Also am looking for another twosome for golf on sunday.. where the golfers at?

[atomicshark]

It's an indoor venue, so yes the show will go on.

What about those of us with lawn seating? SOL, bring umbrellas and our lil' yellow slickers?

[Tax Kuntz]

It's an indoor venue, so yes the show will go on.

Not exactly...The stage and 90% of the seats have a roof, but no real protection on the sides from wind & rain.

But the show will go on either way I'm sure.

What's the story with cameras? Will they allow photo and/or video cameras in to the show?

The Arts Center website says no professional cameras. I think normal consumer use cameras are fine. I'm bringing mine.

I'm heading out now. My special parts are tingling in excitement, and I just might have to touch myself.

See y'all there! :action-sm
