Yonder Wed Night Questions

[colokathy]

For those of you thinking of bringing your kiddos...........it gets REALLY HOT and REALLY CROWDED...........they pack them in there.  Drinks get spilled, the "smoke" gets thick.  Not sure if it's a good idea for the over "21" crowd much less little ones.  If you do decide to bring them, make sure you have good earplugs for them.

  if it's not a good idea for the over 21 crowd then who do you recommend attend?

The 2009 show was pretty special.  One of their 'original' fans, I think his name was Sandy, and long time taper had just passed away and in tribute they recreated the first set from one of the early shows (November '99 I believe) that he had infamously recorded and passed back to them.  Really cool to hear some old songs that don't make the rounds anymore and you could tell that there heavy but positive emotions coming from the band.  And yes, they've had great guests everytime we've seen them up there.

We'll be one of the ones with a baby at the show.  I think you just need to approach it differently.  It our experience, the rearward side doors are usually open and you can slip out pretty easily.  The huge wrap around lobby makes it easy enough to get away for a bit if it gets to be too much inside for any reason.

Missed the boat on this one  ...was so on top of the other Nightgrass shows (which I didn't get) that I forgot about this show. Anyone with extras please contact me...I know this post is in the wrong section but since I'm here

Ha Ha!!  I was referring to how hot it gets in there for the over "21" crowd.  It's a blast for sure.  Great, great way to start the festival.  Have been going for 9 years now but I did skip last year because the year before was so hot and they wouldn't open the side doors.  I'm going to give it another try this year since F.O.M. said it was under new management. 
Yeah, I might need to look at it from a different perspective with the kiddos, maybe I'm being over protective 
Being a nurse and all that...........so, if you need any help!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, very Adult gig for kids to attend but I am no expert ...

Six years ago, my firends brought their babe with them. It was too hot and loud (as others have nicely pointed out), and they spent most of their time in the sitting area outside of the conference room. A couple of years ago I brought my daughter when she was 12. She had earplugs and was playing with the other kids around her age - mostly in the sitting area. To each their own, but I would say if you have a little one, expect to sit outside the room in the sitting area. You can still hear it pretty well and you will probably meet other parents with other little ones!

I proposed to my wife on the gondola ride up to Mtn village in 2009
Right before Yonder played that epic show that has been mentioned on here (tribute show to Sandy).  Needless to say it was one of the best nights of my life....the gondola ride down is absolutely amazing and this show is a perfect way to start the festival
