I really think the show should be moved to a Friday night or Saturday date, so that as many people as can attend will be able to. Sunday is by far the most difficult day for most people to go to a show. Especially one that will run late into the night.

A venue change or date is in order here i think. i for one will not be able to attend now as probably many others will not either. All respect to those who can. i'm sure it will be a great event!

Hey, if you can't make it, no worries. Just make sure you paypal Dave's memorial fund. This is such an unfortunate situation and I'm sure that any little bit (even $5) will help immensely in this time of tragedy and sorrow for the Fuentes family.

Yea, I know it will be great and many people will be there. I am soo bummed i personally can't go. I love hepcat soo much and i want to attend this probably more than any show i can remember.

I was thinking that the all star band should play "live on" or maybe even if alex and greg got up there and sung the new one "sing my song" that would fitting.

I think we all should put hepcat on heavy rotation and keep it that way. I for one never get tired of hearing their records, so many classics!

Lawless,

I don't see the Aggrolites listed on that flyer (although I do see "members of the Aggrolites" as part of the David Fuentes Tribute band)... are they not playing this event?

Or, perhaps they are the "Secret Special Suprise Band"?

Either way, I'll be at this show without any question!

Thanks again to everyone who worked so hard to make this event happen!

Cheers,

Shane

One more question:

Will a certain number of VIP tickets be available ONLY at the door?

I'd really rather not get them through Ticketmaster if I can help it (I despise TM's outrageous and bogus service/convenience/handling charges)... I'd rather give the extra money that Ticketmaster would charge directly to Dave's family.

Also, I notice that the show is not showing up at Ticketmaster yet.

Cheers,

Shane

I think the VIP tickets will be for the seating areas that run down the venue on either side of the stage (dance floor in between). There is also an upstairs area (balcony) that has some seats (up above the portion of the diagram that says "Full Bar"). I tried to find a good picture of the venue, but this drawing was the best I could find:

It is a bit like GAMH, but I think it's slightly bigger. I didn't notice the upstairs when I was there last year, but it didn't seem like there was anything special about the seats along the side. I mean, there was no special access to it. Could have just been that evening, though, for all I know.
