Re: Buffett Milwaukee July 6th!

I am still betting on a Labor Day weekend show at Alpine. This will kick off the fall tour for the new album.

Re: Vegas was terrible

I felt the same way when he opened for the Eagles at Target Field. It was a short set do to being the opener but it just seemed
like he was there for the payday. No enthusiasm at all from the band or half the crowd. Big letdown for me. But the Eagles were good but
I was there to see Jimmy.

Re: Who's Going to Alpine, July 23rd 2022?!

I will be at Snug Harbor for the 21st year coming in on Thursday for golf with old friends. If you see the "JOLYMON" that is me.

Re: Alpine 2022!

Totally agree. We had a blast partying with people on the highway. Even the cops were enjoying our fun. While it wasn't the usual
scenario for Jimmy at Alpine, it sure beat the 40+ degree weather and sleet back in 2009

Re: Alpine 2022!

People blasted the last show in 2019 for the severe storm that rolled in before. We were all stopped on the highway drinking and they closed the lot due to lightning in the area. They pulled all staff inside for safety reasons. Many did not get into the lot by the time the show was suppose to start....

Re: Alpine Valley 2021

My people in the know have not said anything. I think it is possible Jimmy or Alpine is waiting to see what happens with Covid
before any contracts are signed.

Re: New dates for South Carolina and North Carolina concerts

All Live Nation booked concerts have been either cancelled or postponed. Jimmy should just postpone this tour until the world gets somewhat back to normal. Or hell just do an acoustic show for all of us to tune in. He could charge a few bucks and give the money to charity. I sure as hell would tune ...

Re: Alpine Valley 2020

Due to the contracts and territorial mileage associated with them, it would either be an early June or late August show at Alpine
if Jimmy is going there. I would be banking on late August if it happens. But honestly it isn't looking to good at this point.

Re: Alpine Valley 2020

For what it is worth, I have heard some rumblings that Jimmy might be playing Target Field in Minneapolis.
I know Apline is past the territory limit so there could be a show here and there. Just a thought

Re: Alpine Reopening

Looks like no Alpine this year. My sources that were so confident a few months ago are now booking all reservations and do not have a Buffett weekend planned. A little off topic but I wonder if Jimmy realizes the economic impact his concert has on the surrounding area? All the little bars, restauran...

Re: Alpine Reopening

I have heard through some very reliable people the Alpine show will be September 1st Labor Day weekend. And what are those people saying today? They are still saying Labor Day weekend show. Who in the area would not want to hit a two Buffett shows in a summer? I know I would and will be if he plays...

Re: Alpine Reopening

I know that most venues have a no compete clause withing a certain radius which is usually about 200 miles or so. It is also in a specific time frame. Last summer I watched Slayer open up their tour in Bemidji. I asked Gary Holt and their road manager why up here instead of the Twin Cities. I was to...

Re: Alpine Valley 2016

I have honestly not heard anything from any of my contacts nor the from the resort we stay at near Delavan. I am thinking Alpine just might be skipped again this year. Rumor has it he may be playing US Bank Stadium here in Minneapolis this fall but who knows.

Re: ALPINE VALLEY

I'm thinking the way it's going there isn't going to be a show this year. Didn't sell out last year and pavilion tickets could be had below face. If 8/22 is the date that is only 4 months out. Most artists give 6/8 months notice of the show. People need to plan vacations, book lodging, buy tickets e...
