"what exactly is a seat snob? For example, I don't think I've sat in the lawn in 10 years. In my younger years, I didn't mind the lawn because I was usually too drunk to notice the difference. But now, it would have to be absolute desperation for me to sit in the lawn. I realize that lawn seats...

Just wondering how many other self proclaimed seat snobs are out there?

Got 4 sweet seats for Saturday Chicago and will go scalp on Thursday for tix under face.
Got shut out for Alpine but will be able to get some in the parking lot.

Did presale for PNC park in the burgh and got 4th row.

Nice score. That's like hitting 17 in black jack and getting a 3.

has anyone gotten tix on the presale before? Can you get access to the best seats or is this just a way for them to get rid of a bunch of lawn?

Just got back from Grand Cayman and Little Cayman. Go to Rum Point on GC. There are a few cool little bars there and it's laid back. Seven Mile Beach is a tourist area. Decent beach but nothing special. Rent a car and drive around to the east end. The downtown area is nice but can be over run with c...

"Just stay in the touristy areas and you will be fine." NO! NO! NO! Never ever just stay in the touristy spots. That's a waste of time and experience. You go on vacation to get away from Americans, not sit around in a confined space, protected from the outside world. Get away from the reso...

Stayed at Bacuti Beach for our honeymoon. Nice small place but I don't think kids are allowed. Make sure you get out of the resort, roam the island and spend money in the local places. Visit rum shops, chat with the locals. Try Fishbones for dinner, south of the airport. There's a cool dock bar out ...

I've been to Long Island a couple times but stayed in the Dead Man's Cay area about 2/3 of the way down the island. If you get down that way, go by the Greenwich Creek Lodge and say hello to Samantha Knowles for me. Also, if you want to bonefish, that area is incredible. Go out with Ivan or Elvis Kn...

I always thought the song was about St. Barts where JB used to be a partner in a hotel or something. One of the lines "But now I think about the good times Down in the Caribbean sunshine"

As in, you work for Ticketmaster ("Ticketbastard"), Live Nation, Land Shark Lager, the venue, sponsor, etc. etc. At most shows, I would say there are probably 500 'premium' seats (first 5 rows in center or in the side sections but close to center). My question is, what % of these tickets a...

Seen JB at Alpine many times. The tailgating is a good scene and like most venues, can get pretty crazy when the weather is great. Much of the parking is on grass which is nice, but sometimes they don't mow close enough to the show and it's like standing in a wheat field. It's also true that dependi...

I live in Chicago. JB usually attends a Cubs game or two and sings "take me out to the ballgame" between Alpine and Chicago shows. In 1999 and 2003, I was able to fanagle my way up near the press box and when he exited after singing, was able to get my Cubs tickets signed. I'm a bigtime bo...

Let's not kid ourselves, as much as I enjoy JB, his music, philosophy on life, etc., he plays because he is extremely well compensated. Granted, he worked hard to get where he is and deserves every bit of it, but he's also a marketing genius and his management company has done a great job of exploit...

I really didn't like the opening of 'on the road again'. Not a Willie fan. Would have been much better to start with "Here we are". Also, didn't like the Glory Days encore. Where'd that come from? JB's got too many older songs that he could have pulled out and dusted off instead of coverin...

A friend of mine somehow got incredibly lucky and managed front row, just barely off center stage seats. We were on Parrotvision several times and even had Micheal Utley hand us two set lists after the show. It was pretty amazing. In any case, you can understand my desire to get a copy of this show ...
