Oh and attention Luke Ive always been fascinated at the thought of seeing a show at The Gorge in George Washington. Have you been there? also Clark County Amphitheater in Ridgefield Washington and White River Amphitheater near Seattle. Have u been to either of those as well and what do you think if you have?

Are you a hockey guy at all? If so, this has Penguins playoffs written all over it I'm going to try to catch the March 20th game when I'm home over spring break.

Can you imagine how happy the residents of Burgettstown were to finally get some recognition, though? Slipknot fans 4lyfe from that moment on.

Hi David!

I've never been to the Gorge, but I've heard its beautiful. Its definitely out of the way... its often referred to as "Seattle", when its the same distance from Seattle from as Philadelphia is from New York City. Never been to White River, or even Clark County, which is 20 miles outside of Portland. I'm just not a fan of the outdoor concerts.. despise summer with a vengeance.

I am! I was glued to the TV all seven games vs. the Redwings last year. I'm going to try to make it out. Its hard to get out to PIT ever since US Airways bailed, but I think I'm going to have to make a special trip out this time. Do you sit in the Igloo seats?

The Ford Center
The BOK Arena
AAC in Dallas
The Ol' Lady on Brady (aka Brady Theater in Tulsa)
The Cabaret Theater (Tulsa)
The Expo Square Pavilion (Tulsa)
and finally the Muskogee Civic Center.

I like the Great Woods venue in MA as I’ve seen many Stevie shows there.

My only gripe is the ridiculous parking situation there. Instead of 5 minutes, it literally takes you over an hour to get out of the parking lot after each show. Because of that, most people just party in the lot and wait out the traffic.
