If more than a few of us end up going, we'll have to have a Hipbase gathering of some sort...as geeky as that sounds. I think it would be fun though.

Wow, now that could be a hell of vacation. Seeing as how Coachella and Bonaroo are gonzo for me, this could be a great "get out of Dodge" weekend, lottery winnings permiting.
Cheers,
Pat

That's just retarded.

Can't wait
Gorge is my absolute favorite venue.
I saw Pearl Jam & Tom Petty there on Labour Day - great weekend.
For those of you who haven't been to Gorge - GO!!!
Saw Beck, Lips, Shins @ Vegoose this year, and they were all amazing.
Well it's going to be hard to focus on work today

Looks awesome! Now to convince my girlfriend that we should go there instead of Italy that week...
If she chooses the rock festival over Italy, I say marry her Chris!
:wink:

To borrow from High Fidelity, "How can it be [retarded] to state an opinion? It's a simple matter of preference." I say, calm yourself thechubb, Sam's pretty damn talented.

Agreed. I love Sammy too, but if I end up going to this thing I'll probably end up watching Ben, or at least try and shuffle back and forth between stages. And how do you know they're playing at the exact same time? Is there a list of set times posted that I haven't seen yet??

If you want a bunch of retarded woman screaming so loud in your ears that you can't hear the music....go to Ben Harper. But, in my opinion, a hip fan would rather see a energy packed rock show like Sam Roberts...but hey, to each there own. Ben is a good songwriter, but boring as hell live.

boring as hell live??? screaming women?? i don't think you've been to a ben show..when ben plays a mellow song, just him and his accoustic..it's as quiet as hell in there....and yeah..when he rocks out..his fans rock out....to me, when ben tears into faded/whole lotta love...or ground on down..that's energy packed my friend..

That's not that I've heard at all. A buddy of mine saw him here in Calgary and said it was by far one of the best gigs he's ever been to.
