Official 930 Club The Cure at Merriweather 6-22 Thread

[saintangelsin]

I've yet to use my FWB stuff with Merriweather. So I have a question - I have a co-worker who is going to the show with me. We got lawn seats. Plan on leaving Frostburg by 1:30 pm, which means we'll probably be at Merriweather like 4 or 4:30 pm. I'm so bringing my FWB card with me because I've always wanted to do the gate crashes vip pre party thing. I figure maybe I can get good dibs on a spot in lawn. Here's the thing, can I bring my co-worker with me into the pre-party? Or does he need his own FWB card? which for my coworker is kinda stupid because he's never been to the club before and this is his first time going to merriweather. He doesn't get out of town much, hence why I was like "Hey! Want to go with me to see the cure?" lol

Any info and tips would be appreciated. I don't want to be some jerk and ditch my friend for some VIP party.

One more thing - I noticed in the faq's for Merriweather it says personal food items in clear, disposable, non-glass containers are permitted. So does this mean I pack some snacks and stuff in ziplock bags or even bring in food in clear plastic containers from my favorite co-op?

The email says you can bring a plus-one, so you should be able to take your friend into the VIP thing.

Pitting as well.

has anyone done the FWB VIP thing at Merriweather this year? It appears to have changed..

"VIP is located to the side and back of the pavilion-it?s a great place to hang, grab a drink with little to no line or take advantage of the special VIP restrooms.  Our team at the 9:30 tent can help direct to you the new entrance (from last year)"

So, no longer near the Pit...

yeah... i need deets on this too please....

Is this just for the pre party thing they sent the email for?

I don't know what that means. Some shows you can drink at your DAR seats and some shows you can't. WHAT ARE YOU SAYING

Drink all you want!

All right cool. I wondered if it was like Wolf Trap where you can't bring your drinks back to your seat. This is good news.

And if you didn't know, DAR does allow seat drinks sometimes. I know they allowed it during Belle & Sebastian a couple years ago.

There are 2 perqs at issue

1. Gatecrashers, early admission
2. Random Acts of Kindness VIP admission

I believe that all FWBers got 1 and that about 1/2 of the FWB members going to the show got 2.

Got my tix from Sidesquatch, so no FWB email for me.
