Hanover Twp police are kicking out cars and buses hanging out at nearby lots. We're now migrating back off the highway (not sure which one. 22?) and there is traffic backed up for about a mile. I don't know if this is the usual scene but just wanting people if not...and looking for updates if anyone...

There are dozens of cars and buses camped
In nearby lots and getting turned around. This is my first year at
Pgh -- my home base is Bristow Va, and we know how that has gone in recent years -- but the group I'm with has done this for many years and never before got turned away early.

Hey all, my charter bus just arrived and got turned away. They told us they are not opening until 3:30. For real. Lots of cars and buses tailgating in lots nearby. Anyone know what's going on?

Thanks for the link to the recordings! 1. I can't believe there are a total of 12 pages for this thread. So sad. 2. Next year, assuming Jimmy returns to Virginia, I think I'll look into staying at the hotel nearby and tailgating there and making new Parrotthead friends. The concert is worth seeing, ...

So what time did the gates open to let people in the lots? Did they jam all the cars together or did you have some room? Just wondering. Yep, 3 p.m. My friends and I took a bus and arrived at about 3:30-40. The lots near the entrance were empty. The parked the buses and RVs in Lot D, and it was ter...

The concert was great! Jimmy was a great performer again. Loved the set list and its order. Really, really fun show! The tailgate? Was pretty much what I anticipated. Disappointing. For a concert tailgate, it was probably good. But it wasn't the Jimmy Buffett tailgate scene we've all grown to love. ...

Tickets bought for my crew of eight. I'm feeling very lukewarm about going back. Last year was utterly depressing. We just got back from the mind-blowing experience that is Tampa. And I'm just not feeling it this year. I'm hoping my feelings will change as the summer progresses. It's hard to pass up...

Somewhere in this thread there's a random post or two about a bus leaving from Hoodbridge, er, Woodbridge. With only 41 pages, it's amazing I haven't located it yet, but scroll through to find it and perhaps they still have room on their bus. A questionable alternative is hitching a ride with the s...

My friends and I usually buy seats on a party bus, but this year, we put it off too long and our bus is sold out (It's the awesome Boomerang Bus, in case anyone was thinking of getting seats.) We are seeking seats for six people on a bus. Hopefully the bus would be filled with other fun-loving, expe...

thanks all for this great advice.

I'm tossing around the idea of celebrating my birthday (early December) in Key West. I would hope to have 6-8 friends with me. Any recommendations on a good place to stay? I'd love to get a house or condo if it's affordable. A group friendly resort or hotel would also work. Also is there anything at...

i've been saving for a house downpayment. is it bad that i'd rather use that money for this? i mean, real estate comes and goes. but a Buffett concert in Tahiti? Once in a lifetime.

What would Jimmy Buffett do?

it would be a bday present to me too! now, if only i can convince someone to come with me. don't now if i'd want to make this trip solo.

i am feeling really sad. next year, i really have to trek to two shows. although, admittedly, i'm not on the same post-buffett high like i was last year, which was my first show. my group took a party bus (if anyone made it to the bus section, we were in the blue school bus painted with beach scenes...

just got back from one last shopping trip of decorations, leis, glow sticks, candy necklaces, a new grass skirt, and popcicle molds that came with margarita mix!!

Pesonally, I think it will just be a passing storm as opposed to a steady 3-4 hour rain. It should last long enough to turn the place into a sauna! 8) I would love to a passing storm. I'd prefer a 82 and sunny, little humidity and a nice breeze. But a passing storm will be much better than steady r...

Extra shirt! Great idea! I'm really not too worried about possible rain or storms. I'd rather be warm and wet than dying from the heat like last year. And I have a feeling that the party is just as alive when it rains. Although, I'd rather not sit in the rain during the concert itself. I did that at...

The weather forecast keeps flip flopping. I'm hoping for the best. But I've never been at a wet or stormy concert/tailgate. Any advice or good stories to tell of concerts from past?

My friends and I created a spreadsheet to divide up who is bringing what. We're having a t-shirt making party on Monday night (complete with boat drinks, of course). On Buffett Eve, we're planning to go to that Mac McAnally show and then packing things up while sipping more boat drinks. We'll go to ...

I've been checking the weather update twice a day since it was available on one 15-day forecast page. I can't believe I'm now checking the 10-day (and less) forecast. Almost time for the 7-day forecast page. Thunderstorms?!?! I can deal with a sporadic storm. Definitely better than the 104+ weather ...
