What kind of tips are you looking for? Its a big field, you park and you camp. Pretty self explanitory.

I'm really wanting to make the trip to see DMB this summer. 2 sets every night is going to be incredible.

If trends continue like they did at the Caravan and recent Gorge shows, I'll get 6 sets with no repeats, which will be awesome!

Look into the Wild Horse Campground. VERY close to the Gorge and with showers. Bus takes you to and picks you up from the venue.

I know they have a website b/c wife booked 2 stays through it (or from number on it). DMB show will be packed, so act soon.

Definitely! There will be a big group at Baker St Pub before the show, since there is no tailgating at the venue

Skin, go check out Antsmarching.org, and go to their message board. They have a big thread for the gorge full of folks that go often, so they can certainly help you out with some answers. The only time I went to the gorge, we didn't camp.

Really cool to see them doing a caravan stop there this year again

Thanks, been on ants for years. The Gorge thread is so packed with shite I didn't want to go through it all. Wanted to see if any TDers had done it. I'm debating Woodlands and Dallas too, but we'll see if I can spare the extra cash for another road trip.

Good deal
A few of the guys in the Texas shows thread can help you out too, they have and are planning to hit the gorge and premium camping

I have been to Sasquatch twice and camped once. For camping, bring some earplugs if you want to sleep. Or just put in some headphones and play music. It can get pretty rowdy in the camping area.

The food vendors were not bad and weren't too pricey. Beer was expensive, as expected. It was easy to sneak a bottle of wine in. I just rolled it up in a jacket and held the jacket in my hand when getting checked.

Bring a rain jacket or pancho. It rains a lot there.

Really appreciate the help guys. I'll check in again close to the tour opener to see who's all going if I decide to hit woodlands.
