We’ve just announced what I think could be the most fun experience The Clintons have ever been involved with. If you were to, say, compare this to a Billings Alive @ Five, Bert & Ernies block party, Rockin The Rivers, or playing with Barenaked Ladies, I’d say this event could very well go down in the record books as being more memorable than any of those very worthy events.
I could be biased. I mean, I LOVE the sun. I LOVE drinking beer IN the sun. I love camping, friends, relaxing….and I LOVE water and sand (the beach in other words). To me, having The Clintons play a show is really just an excuse for all of the stuff previously mentioned. It’s a damn good excuse.
We’re calling it “Clintons Summer Camp”. It’s at Lakeside Resort about 10 minutes outside of Helena. You can camp if you want, or you can just show up and party all night. It’s an all ages thing. We’re even trying to line up a 15 passenger van that will shuttle people from town and back. Our good friend Rick is probably the most brilliant guy to manage a venue/restaurant/bar in the state, in my humble opinion. Let’s just say he will stop at nothing to make sure this is wicked crazy fun. We’ve known him for years and years and it really takes a classy host and professional party animal like him to envision how much fun this can be.
We’ll try to get some pictures and maybe some video of this place up for you out of towners to check out. It’s a true four acre summer oasis with a huge sandy beach…definitely a must see.
One thing to note is that they’re only allowing us 50 camp spots. They each hold a four person tent and they’re only $20 so they’ll probably go fast. Follow the links below to buy tickets and camp spots.

Chen, of course you would think it’s ‘goofy’….’I keep getting older and they stay the same age..’
So, you can’t bring outside alcohol into the campsite, and the bar stops serving at 2am, but the campsite is 21+? Is this just a goofy law or what?
That’s correct Chen. There may be some further clarification that comes down the pipe though. For example, once the bar closes, the venue may not care who is in the tent area since it’s private property.
As a matter of fact, there’s no law saying you can’t have alcohol in the tent area during business hours. Lakeside is simply interested in doing their part to keep the drinking to legal ages only.
Lets face it, say you have an underage girlfriend who comes with you. How would she drink? Probably by waiting in the tent for you to bring back a shot of Mad Dog 20/20 or Boones Farm wine from the bar.
That’s what they’re trying to avoid.
Is there a nearby boat ramp and are boats welcom?
Boat ramp and re-fueling station are all part of the venue… Boats filled with good looking women are always welcome…!
