Re: Ok Lubers!!! Who's going to Bristow, VA May 20, 2017?

Hope to be there for show #9 for my wife and I, and show #4 for our daughter!!! Question: is there a reasonable tailgating option that doesn't involve driving your own car? I like the tailgate scene, I like to hang out for a few hours beforehand, I like to drink for several hours before and during t...

Re: Who's going to The Lube June 20th, 2015?

Obviously the weather was kind of a bummer, but all things considered, it could have been worse. We were able to wait out the worst of the monsoon from 7-8PM in the car, then enter JLL about 8:15. We left a little early (had a nine-year-old who was wet and cold) but with a solid four hours of tailga...

Re: Bristow security cancels show but Jimmy does not

That would have been a disaster if they turned us away, since they weren't letting people sit in their car. Really? Security was making some people leave their cars? In the VIP lot at least, we sat inside the car from 7-8PM (with the SUV tailgate still mostly open) and waited out the worst of it. I...

Re: Who's going to The Lube June 20th, 2015?

Lubers....what's the deal with "premier parking"? My wife and daughter and I made our first trip to JLL for last year's show (recent transplants to Virginia). Believing the company line that the parking lots would open 2 hours ahead of doors opening, we didn't get there until 4:30-ish. And...

Re: Margaritaville Casino Biloxi to Close

So bummed about this. Was a really nice property, albeit in a really crummy, industrial park type section of town. Gorgeous marina with a nice restaurant and bay/bridge views, though. Hate this for the employees, and I hate it for Biloxi overall, which desperately needs more jobs, not less. https://...

Re: Who's going to JLL on August 16?

I’ve skimmed through most of this looking for tailgate info. Congrats on reaching page 68 by the way. It’s been 3 years since I’ve been to the Lube for a show and I will be driving in from Alabama. I stopped coming a few years back when the lube tried to change the tailgate policies to include no t...

Re: Who's going to Birmingham 2/25/12 ??

... BUT I did learn something important to pass on to my friends here @ Buffett News from this experience. They had a beer trailer set up outside for the smokers. As America becomes a nation of fewer smokers fewer people are aware of this hidden, private beer sales unit. So there was no waiting in ...

Re: Who's going to Birmingham 2/25/12 ??

Anyone know if the pre-concert gathering at the Sheraton is all-ages? We've been to that sports bar before, but it's been ages (in our kid-free days) and I can't remember if it's truly just a bar, or a bar/restaurant.

We're bringing our 5-year-old this time for her first Buffett experience. :)

Also, I may bring a hand written letter to slide under the doors of the SEC office across the street as I have a few choice words about their unnecessary conference expansion and how it is going to screw up the entire league. :roll: See you all Saturday. Pfft. Considering the GENEROUSLY EASY schedu...

Re: 10.15.2011 Las Vegas: THREE for TWO

Hi-- I've got THREE tickets for the 10/15 Vegas show, in row C of section 205. Looking to make an EVEN trade for TWO tickets in any better location. I.e. any of the 100 sections, or anything on the floor. Seats have to be together, of course (and my three are!). Get in touch if you'd like to discuss!

Can you create a sub-forum for the Vegas show, 10.15.11? Thanks.

Re: Who is going to Vegas Saturday 10-15-11?

We will be there. So excited for this. Love JB, love Vegas. Have wanted to go to a Vegas concert for YEARS. Add the fact that the "Margaritaville Casino" and "5 O'Clock Somewhere Bar" should be open at the Flamingo by then, and this should be a heck of a weekend. (And I didn't ev...

Also, here's another interesting tidbit: the Goo Goo Dolls were scheduled to play Ryman Auditorium in Nashville last night. They moved the show to TONIGHT at 7:30. Is anyone going to be able to get into downtown Nashville tonight??? From their Facebook page: Due to the Metro-Nashville State of Emerg...

Re: Nashville Show Weather

Let me preface this by saying that this will NEVER happen. HOWEVER, if Ticketmaster and/or the concert management folks wanted to issue refunds, they could. The tickets are barcoded; they know who used their tix and who didn't. And, if they wanted to get into more detail, they could even allow refun...

Mr. Irishcajun works near the double tree at 4th and Union. He had to go move their computers out late last night. He is now going to attempt to go down there to work.

Re: Nashville Show Weather

We drove in from Birmingham, about 200 miles to the south. I was concerned about the weather; we moved up our departure time by an hour or two, got to Nashville about 1PM, parked the car, and toughed it out. I think (but obviously I would think this!) that the promoters made the right decision by ke...
