Re: Who's Going to Chicago/Tinley Park June 27th, 2015?

Just bought some OK pavilion @Live Nation for a bit under half of face value. Hate the venue, but couldn't pass up the deal. Now I need to marinade the Jerk Chicken. See you in the parking lot!

Re: Alpine

Slightly off topic, but big news that would interest the people who annually meet up with me to caravan to the parking lot.
A huge fire ripped through downtown East Troy on Friday. Two historic buildings on the square were destroyed.

Re: Alpine

Two Seasons is just a huge open field behind the bowling alley.

I can confirm it's a heck of a time and Bruce always has great live music by the outdoor sand volleyball courts.

I can also confirm it's very easy to have so much fun, you don't really remember anything.
Wait, what don't you ...

Re: Alpine

For years, Indy / Alpine / Chicago closely spaced, not so much recently.

But also for years, Jimmy would announce Chicago's Thursday show, tickets go on sale, then announce BOTH Alpine & Chicago's Saturday show, tickets go on sale same date. That was the only way to fill Thursday's seats. Now ...

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley 2012?

Well anyone know the story on the parking lot? This is on Live nations A/V website

Early Parking Lot Entry: We charge $20 for cars and $50 for limos or oversized vehicles for entry to the parking lots prior to the schedule lot time. Cash only – day of onsite.

So does that mean you can show up ...

Re: Alpine Valley?

Back to the primary topic - when is Jimmy playing Alpine - has suddenly become urgent and vital, as we face 4-8 inches of snow. :(

Re: If you can go to only ONE concert, where?

If you're seriously limiting to East Coast, Greatwoods. If you're willing to travel - Alpine Valley is over the top.

Enjoy whatever show(s) you settle on.

Good Morning BN-ers, it's the big day!

Everybody stay cool & dry (on the outside at least) - plenty of fluids and some of them not alcoholic!

See you @ the show!

Re: Who's going to Toyota Park August 14th??

Hey, where is everybody? Awful quiet - like everybody's hung over or something.

Awesome set list, much improved (IMHO) from Alpine. Played my favorite, Down in the Banana Republics (wish the audience would shut up for songs they don't know by heart instead of talking through them!), and dropped ...

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010

Does anyone know who runs and operates Alpine Valley Music Theater? Their web site no longer exists and I'm dying to give them a piece of my mind about the "early entrance fees". My problem with the fees is that they didn't tell you about them before hand. If they want to charge an early fee, fine ...

Early Entry Fee

Great show... hot weather like it should be...

I think the $20 "early entry fee" was a surprise by design - like the venue surcharge & convenience fees on top of ticket price wasn't enough. We were in the first row of Yellow (we got our money's worth for $20) but I bet the whole line completely ...

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010

I will have to check ebay out!! Thanks for the tip!!

You'll get best prices on buffettnews ticket exchange or maybe JimmyDreamz. Fans tend to just want to unload extras at cost; eBay is to fleece those in a hurry. I've never seen a year that if you get there early (noon to 1:00) and walk about a ...

Re: Who's going to Toyota Park August 14th??

Seems like most of the threads are growing slowly... Chicago & Alpine at 7 pages in March? Alpine normally about 40, and that's for an AUGUST date!
