Wow, things are really heating up. Great to see all the people travelling in from out of town.
Directions from I-90...coming from the West I'll assume...take the Maple St. exit...take a left and head north on Walnut...take a right heading east on 3rd...take a left heading north on Lincoln...take a left heading east on Sprague...you'll be there...the Big Easy is on the block flanked by Monroe and Lincoln on the west and east and Sprague and 1st on the north and south. That's only one way to get there. If you get lost, don't sweat it. Downtown Spokane is not very big and if you circle around a couple of times you'll find it.
The Ridpath Hotel is very close...about three blocks east of the Big Easy. Just walk out the front door of the hotel and the venue is three blocks to your west. There's a liquor store right next door to the hotel, and if you're hungry there is an excellent BBQ and a sushi restaurant right across the street. Also a decent newstand on the other side.
Sorry, but I don't know what kind of Tequila they have at the Big Easy. I'm a Vodka man myself. They have a full bar though, so should be able to accomodate any drink requests. I should ask my brother-in-law...he always drinks (too many) Red Bull and Tequila drinks whenever he's there.
Everyone drive/fly safe and we'll all be ready to rock tomorrow night! |

Me and my husband will be there!! We just got back from Victoria and Thursday Vancouver, sitting here moping that we didn't stay for tonight in Vancouver--last night was sooo incredible!! We'll be flying out tomorrow afternoon to Spokane. You are all in for an awesome night!
We might try the restaurant thing, but from the two experiences I've had so far there was not a huge rush for the front of the stage. We were almost last in line last night when the doors opened and we were able to walk in and get a space right up at the barrier, to Kim's side, with no problem.

Thx for the info. I can't believe how many people are travelling around North America to see the tour. At least Boise to Spokane is a cheap flight. I'm still pissed I missed out on the Boise tickets. This concert will end up costing me over $260. What the hell, it's worth it.
Sounds like this Big Easy must have a restaurant like the one in Boise. That's where I may hang out before the show. It's my first trip to Spokane and don't know a soul in the city. My other friends have no appreciation for the Pixies and will not ne taking part in the pilgrimage. |
