is the beer free on these brewery tours?
Will it still be humid at that time of year?

Is Chuck Berry's house a historical landmark or can it at least be seen from the outside? Is there a plaque there or some kind of recognition?

I'm staying at an airbnb in the 1000th block of Olive street. Hopefully that's a safe walk back after the show. Didn't look too far on the map.

“ there's a large parking garage a block away I bet will be busy.”
I believe that’s the parking garage I’ve picked out for our hotel, the Magnolia. I think there is a garage directly across from the hotel but I’m thinking it’s a bit more expensive?

I still feel the same about my earlier St. Louis post (I took it down cuz the same point has been made over and over) ... BUT because of Kovach's kindness/helpfulness to everyone visiting his city I, too, have decided to make the opener as it's only a 7 hour drive.
Got a "very good" rate at the Hyatt/Arch for two nights with two beds in hopes someone might want to share the room, even if only for a night
Also don't have ticket yet but that's least of my worries

Whoohoo!! I think a lot of us are feeling a strong pull to be there for this one. Glad you’re able to join. Looks like there are plenty of great tickets left.

Weather in St. Louis is always a crap shoot!
I'd say probably but it should start to cool down so will be tolerable.
Right now they're saying high of 78, mostly sunny with a few cloids, and 22% chance of rain, overnight low of 57.
I think they give you 2 free beers if your choice. I believe though that they have put in a biergarten where you can eat and purchase more.
We have a number of good microbreweries in St. Louis. Schlafly is popular (2 locations, 1 downtown), Urban Chestnut is another (2 locations, 1 downtown though food is limited at that location, the other in Tower Grove has a pretty good menu). A whole host of others, Civil Life, Four Hands, Center Ice, Morgan Street, Side Project (which wins worldwide awards consistently though I haven't been there yet), and many many more.

You pay $15 or so for the tour and you get one or two very small glasses of day fresh brewed beer without paying extra for them. I have done the tour during 2-3 St Louis travels over the years, and from memory it is sort of on the upper floors indoors some place, then we get to the Clydesdales horses. But it's a few years back, may be they changed things. It's all here:

Kind of feel like if this show was a Friday night or a Saturday night it would have helped the slow ticket sales.

is it a good idea to make a reservation for the tours, esp with Taste of St. Louis going on, or is that even possible?

I'm all in.. now just deciding which Stones mask to wear over my medical grade mask. Would prefer vax/test proof required shows. But-
With precautions fully vaxxed people have very little to be concerned about.

Has anyone set up a tailgate party for this yet? The Marriott I am staying at is just a short walk to the dome.
Any suggestions?
I do not think an indoor location is appropriate but a party in the parking lot sounds like fun.

The Over/Under looks good. They open at 11:00 AM on Sundays. Bar food but lots of options and a short walk from The Dome and the hotels a lot of us are staying in. They’ve got patio seating and lots of TVs for NFL viewing.
