Based on this experience, here are my picks, in order: 1. Great Woods The Holy Grail of East Coast Shows 2. Irvine Terrace The Holy Grail of West Coast...

Biggest fan? Craziest Parrothead? Etc. This is a little like winning Miss America. Yes, the winner is beautiful, sometimes smart, sexy, and wins over some 10,000 beauty queen fanatics that want to be Miss America versus the Queen of the Payson Arizona rodeo. Most true deserving women who might qual...

Ahhhh....controversy. I am stopping by Walmart and buying five copies when I get back to San Diego from Mexico tomorrow. As I am at the fuel dock in Ensenada putting 700 gallons of diesel fuel in my boat at a measly $2.80 per gallon, this seems like a small way to spend some of the $1300 I am saving...

Anyone ever rented an RV in San Diego for a concert? My truck is not going to comfortably hold all the phriends this year so I was thinking about upgrading for the concert... All the websites I've looked like give general info and all look about the same to me. I do love tailgating in my truck, but...

Times...they (may) be a changin'...... You may be right on many fronts. The economy, and the fact many of us have been at this scene a long time, and other factors noted may be hurting ticket sales, or at least slowing the previous frenzied sell outs at numerous locations.

[quote="ctrotter28"]This will be my first Buffett show at MSG. Haven't been to NYC in years and we just got lucky with Jimmy being there at the same time. Can anybody give me any suggestions on where to go before the concert? I've only seen him in the South and am not really sure how the t...

But it is working for him... he is the first country musician to do a full-out stadium tour, & he sells out all his stadium shows. He's doing something right... so he is a very smart businessman. Mad respect. lol. Name Garth Brooks ring a bell? Thinking the same thing. I'm guessing when Garth h...

This thread sounds like the regular conversation my wife and I have about Jimmy and KC. In my opinion, KC will take the party torch when Jimmy retires. I have been to 115 plus Buffett shows since 1987, all over the country. I have also started attending KC shows, last year in Hartford, coming up in ...

Well, we bought ours and are going. This will be show #118 for us, yet our first in New York. It is kind of a second home from us as we keep on apartment on 49th street. The economy and the many choices all make sense. Plus, well, it is inside and no parking to tailgate. Little like Vegas, but Vegas...
