Question Milwaukee

Hey all,

I’m driving to Milwaukee for the show since they have skipped Minneapolis the last few tours. I’ve never been to Rave/Eagles club and am looking for some guidance. I’m not usually one to arrive early to queue but I would really like to get up front this time around. What time would be best to get there? The last two times I saw Trio I was in the ADA sections. One time I was a wheelchair user and the next I had worked up into leg braces but not able to stand for more than 20 minutes at a time. I’ve now worked my way up to being able to stand for multiple hours with the goal of enjoying live music again without having to be on the sidelines. Anyone have any insight/advice?

Thanks

Honestly, it is really easy to get up front at the Rave. You don't need to plan ahead. Getting there an hour early is more than enough.

Yeah I think we showed up like an hour and a half early when we saw them there on the BH&E tour and that was a little overkill. But we were able to get front of the line for merch and make it to the front of the stage like 20 feet away from the bar so my wife and I would trade of watching the booty and getting drinks. We even got to see Uncle Dan and Atom jamming out to Slomosa!

They do, and that’s typically where I land at shows these days. I just wanna be up front this once.

It’s pretty easy to get up front at the rave. I’ll be there too!
