Re: Alpine Valley 2016
A Labor Day weekend show at Alpine will be awesome.
Now if only there were a way to remove all of the entitled Packers fans...

Re: Jimmy adds House of Blues show
That's a pretty random add. I wonder how it's "special." HOB Chicago my favorite venue in town. Good sightlines and pretty decent acoustically. Should be a great show. But at $136 per ticket before taxes and fees, no thanks. At least all of the city folk can go to this show now, since they...

Re: 2016 I Don't Know Tour set list tracker
So the Chicago show will feature two songs plus an encore from Somewhere Over China? That will be massively disappointing. Not his strongest album but still has some good tunes on it. My bet is you get somewhere over China (awesome), heard I was in town(also awesome) and midnight and I'm not famous...

Re: Chicago 2016
Secured a couple rooms @ La Quinta, but they're all full now. Good thing there are a few hotels right in the area, but maybe not for long. And that's before he even announces a show there! Start the countdown! If any of the hotels at 183rd/Harlem (off of the I-80 Harlem exit) fill up, there are als...

Re: Chicago 2016
Bingo. Bathroom breaks took 5 minutes at Toyota, far cry from the lines at Tinley. Northerly Island is only remembered as a poor location because it had just been converted into what it is now, so the sod was not set, and then Chicago got a ton of rainfall in the days leading up to it.... So it was...

Re: Chicago 2016
Toyota had plenty of bathrooms. ... Tinley has, what, two? And by the time you've gone you might as well get back in line cuz it takes half a freakin' hour to pee. For some reason, this is largely a Chicago issue. I've been tailgating at various events in different cities, and I've never seen issue...

Re: Chicago 2016
That's the only gripe? Not the delayed start to tailgating? Or the fact that Toyota had a better view from every spot in the stadium than practically anywhere @ Tinley? Or the s*** gravel-mixed-w/-boulders parking lot covering half the tailgating area? Or the severe lack of toilets leading to horri...

Re: Chicago 2016
...an unfortunate return to Tinley.... But let's be honest, isn't there a better option??? I'll be honest: not really, no. Northerly Island was a disaster, so it's really either Toyota or Tinley. Other than Wrigley (with no tailgating), there aren't any other outdoor venues with the optimal capacit...

Re: A POSITIVE experience at the Chicago show!!!
This was really part of the huge disappointment on the lawn... we knew the people down in the "seating" section had to be having a blast.

Re: Chicago show venue failures a breakdown
I also remember a number of people saying who cares about the potential problems....it's JB on an island in Lake Michigan and I'm going. I hope those people are not now the ones complaining. Weren't most of the pre-concert complaints stuff like, "it's Chicago, we're going to get mugged" a...

Re: Chicago show venue failures a breakdown
I've been hearing a lot of people who didn't attend saying, "It was just a little mud, it couldn't have been that bad. You should have sucked it up and had a good time." This venue sucked so badly that it was next to impossible to have a good time. The other major issue with the lawn was t...

Re: An Open Letter to Jimmy Buffett
The lawn last night was a total joke, but the mud wasn't even an issue to me compared to the fact that there was zero visibility of the stage from the lawn. I'm 6 feet tall and I could barely see the top of the cymbal stands on the drum riser if I stook on my tip-toes. The result: $50 a head to stan...
