I know for a fact that there is not a computer system in the world that can process 15,000 ticket orders in under a minute, but that was what just happened. I logged on the precise second that tickets went on sale today. Exactly when the "more info" changed to "buy tickets" and t...

I don't know why it doesn't get much respect (it hasn't been mentioned here yet), but Jones Beach is just great. Say what you want about Great Woods, it's not on the ocean!

OK there JBnut. You little cereal you. My description of Pre-You musically is right on. For Jimmy Buffett, it's as close to stoned out jazz as he's ever gotten. It is a little...soft at times. A bit mushy. But, compared to his entire catalog, it's way off the charts as being different. So it doesn'...

You want to talk about "not getting it"? I was actually asked one time by a coworker - with disdain, not amusement - "are you people (Parrotheads) the same people that attend Star Trek conventions"?

That's rich. People go off about how great the actual garbage tunes are (Cultuarl Infidel, Vampires...the entire Last Mango album) and now y'all are stabbing at a beautiful slow ballad that hinges on stoned out jazz? Where the hell do you come from? I know a lot of people - people that are beyond t...

No one has mentioned Pre-You? I just never had any love for that song. I've used the line a couple of times, but for me, the song just bites. That being said, I wouldn't walk out of a concert if he started playing it. I'm just happy that Jimmy still tours. Thank you. I can't believe it took this ma...

I hope Jimmy isn't setting a pattern here with only doing MSG when he's in NY because of the size of the stadium, that would be a shame. I have seen many shows at MSG and couldn't even imagine seeing him there, it wouldn't be anything like seeing him at the beach. size of the venue doesnt matter.ta...

announced for Jones Beach? They dont appear on the Jones Beach concert list....

I thought the same thing. It's on Phil Lesh's website.

Which announcement? Jones Beach or MSG?

It's only March, there's still a lot of time to announce a Jones Beach show. Not being able to sell tequila and beer hasn't stopped him from playing there before. I hope so. That lot seen at the beach is such a blast. I don't know. I hate to think this about Jimmy but it may be about the almighty $...

Thanks Conched. I never knew how you guys put those pictures in there!

I've never watched Dancing With The Stars either. I just happened to be going for a walk through Times Square on my lunch hour one day and saw 2 people being interviewed. I had to ask somebody, I had no idea how they were. It was the day after the latest edition of the show ended and the winners we...

It's Julianne Hough from Dancing With The Stars. Larry, they probably want to know who the girl is in your sigline too. Who's she? I'd love a Jones Beach Show. (Hi, P&T!!!) I meant the one singing. Is that the signline? I've never seen Dancing with the Stars but I just looked up Julianne's site...

This was great! Thanks. BTW (I'm new here) who's the girl? At first I thought it was a Reeferette. But that isn't Tina Gullickson.

Possible dates for a Jones Beach show. Thursday, June 12th. Fits in logically between Detroit and Philadelphia. Sometime around July 4th, which would be a mini tour combined with Mohegan Sun like he did 2 years ago. Or August 26th or 28th. The August dates fit nicely around Atlantic City the w/e of...

I am still hoping for a JB @JB show. He has been playing there every 2 years so there is some chance. I'm just getting nervous that a NY date has not been announced. I really don't want to go back to MSG, I will miss the tailgating. At least I'm going to Phila. & Mansfield. I'm getting nervous ...

I was thinking the same thing! I'm getting a little nervous here. Where is Jones Beach?
