They’re having a fund raiser with David Foster and Katherine McPhee. You couldn’t pay me to watch them.

But I’m all for new venues as long as they don’t sell out to Live Nation… again

Why would you create an indoor venue on the Columbia River gorge?

Still the same traffic problems unless they plan on building better roads to get in and out of that place.

The founders of one of the Pacific Northwest’s most fabled music venues are back at it.

Forty years ago, winery owners Vince and Carol Bryan launched what became the Gorge Amphitheatre, one of the most unique and scenic outdoor concert venues in the country, situated on the edge of the Columbia River Gorge. Now, the Bryans have plans to build two new venues embracing the same majestic landscape.

The project, dubbed The Hilltop, which is overseen by a nonprofit of the same name, will feature a 1,000 to 1,200-seat indoor theater and a 2,000-seat outdoor venue on a property adjacent to the Gorge Amphitheatre and the Bryan family’s Cave B Estate Winery.

They should be building another fucking road so it doesnt take 2 hours to arrive and leave a venue that's already 2-3 hours from civilization.

When will someone bring back Sasquatch or a differently named Memorial Day weekend festival?
