This will be my first visit to Hampton. I'm pretty stoked. I've been reading some of the great stories on .net from other phans. I have to admit I have a pretty good one myself and I haven't even been yet. Long story short, the tax man hit me hard this year and I had zero chance of going. I also suffer from sever back pain. My brother and I were at Alpharetta this year and was talking about how sweet it would be to do a bucket list venue this year. I told him of my financial situation and he saw first hand how difficult it is for me physically to go to a show. After the show little was said about the bucket list. A month goes by and I get a phone call from him. He informs me he bought two tix for all three nights at Hampton for us. I'm beside myself. He then tells me that airfare and hotel are also covered and the only payback he wants is for me to have a good time with him. Best. Miracle Ticket. Ever. If this is any indication to the possibilities of this weekend, I'd say we're going to be in for a real treat.

I wish I could. But, of course, they do a fall tour on the east coast after I move from the east coast. It's some webcasting for me!
On another note, I'm gonna check out DSO for the first time tomorrow, anyone got a review of them guys?

They're fantastic, I think they do the GD thing better than Furthur.
