There have been 3. 1. The "infamous" Buckeye Lake show 1993. 2. Pittsburgh 1995 from the 6th row. 3. The Buckeye Lake show in 1995 in the monsoon. many other memorable ones but it isnt an accident my faves all come from back in the day when it was just a little less planned, a little more ...

Re: Ticket buying secrets??????

Buy singles or wait. I'm one of those people who just can't NOT have a ticket right away but last year I upgraded 2 of the shows I went to as it got closer to the date. Ended up in the 8th row twice I agree. In this day and age and with no end of resources to find tickets I don't even bother to loo...

Its really good, nothing fancy pretty much what you expect from a great band. I have loved the all ACDC channel on Sirius.

And earth to others...Bon Scott is still dead. Time to let it go.

I have been a longtime Chesney fan but his latest album is nothing short of brilliant. Harkens back to Jimmy's younger days.

As an aside ACDC's new album is really good also but thats probably best left to another thread. :D

Re: The Wizard of Disappointment

Different perspective on what you think are weird requests... The tour is sponsored by Landshark, an AB product... it seems normal to me that they'd request walking vendors to sell AB products. Cups?

I loved Jamaica Farewell. Hokey, I could do without, even if it meant another cover. I really don't like that song. I'm one of the ones usually clamoring for more Jimmy stuff, but if this is the answer, maybe I'll stop. Be careful what you ask for :lol: Take Another Road I was excited to hear. That...

I have heard deeper tracks on well, Deep Tracks and The Loft but not often. I have also heard Fins on '80's but only once. I can't wait for the merge...
