Great American Music Hall, San Fran
« on: October 29, 2006, 08:49:06 AM »

Can some one fill me in on this dinner charge? What is GAMH, a dinner theater?

I can just imagine people sitting around eating and then the concert starts, they asked to be excused, and then start moshing.

Planning on faxing for tickets Monday  8).

Don't get your hopes up, Pinky.  No dining tables, although they do have a nice glass elevator where you can moon everybody in the crowd, and take a peek at the bands backside.

Is it a good place to see the Melvins?

It's alright.  Bigger than a club, but smaller than a large arena.  There's two or three levels where you can watch the Melvins from balconies, if you wish.

It's an amazing venue!  The sounds is spectacular, and you have great views from anywhere in the place.

I'm still curious about the dinner thing. Is it worth the extra $24? That's 6 drinks.

Never had dinner at the GAMH, but they're 'sister' clubs to Slim's, and Slim's has the same deal. At Slim's there's a balcony in back where you can get in an hour earlier than the general public, and you get a table to sit at. I believe they have simple food service there, like a hotel/wedding/conference type planned meal with a choice of 2 entrees. I think GAMH's dining area is up in one of the balconies, as well...but not in the back like Slims. It would be a good deal if you want a guaranteed seat for the show, and bar/waitress service through the show. I'm going to the GAMH show, I'd be curious as to how the dinner thing works, if you go for it, maybe I'll do it too.

I'm going without the dinner package. Bad Ronald is going and we will hit Sparkys afterwards if we can walk.

That's the best thing about doing dinner at the GAMH, you get a table on the balcony with a really good view of the stage.  It kind of sucks though, because you aren't on the floor in the middle of the madness.  Never did the dinner there, but I hear it's half-way decent.  A great venue though (just like the name says).

I'm going to be in attendance. I'm also going to hit the Reno venue, the day before.

I can't speak for Tastelikedirt or bUTTHOLEmAN..but I bet they'll be at the SF venue aswell.

I'll be there as well.  Anyone else?

Spunk, I picked up an extra -- any chance of you flying down for the show?  You know you've got a couch to crash on, and the ticket's on me.

You know how much I'd love to.  I'll look around, and if by some stroke of dumb luck I can score cheap plane tix, I might take you up on the offer.
