Dave Matthews Band In Des Moines (and Summer tour schedule)

Anyone going to the OAR Show at Hoyt Sherman? Never been.. Pics of the Theater looks pretty cool!
 
Just an FYI. with the 2 sets the show will start earlier than past tours. Somewhere between 7-7:30.
 
It will be tight.. Not leaving Western Iowa till 2:30 or 3.. gotta stop at the hotel first..

That doesn't have much info in it about the "tailgate". What's the set up for food and drink - anyone know? I have tickets for the tailgate, but if it's just crappy food for sale, and $10 beers, I'm skipping it in favor of a nice meal and good beer.
 
Is the Event center parking lot the only place to possibly tailgate? My buddy is with some friends, don't know if it's a great idea down there.
 
So I'm a DMB fan but not a hard core fan. Going to the show tonight (saw him in 2009 and loved it)....what songs can I expect him to play besides the obvious favorites? Gonna list to Dave at work today to get into the mood.
 
Any idea how long the concert will be?

~ 4 hours. There is no opening act, and DMB starts playing right around 7 in their acoustic set. Then they break set and come back as it gets dark with the full on electric set and break just before 11 after encore.
