Re: Chicago 2022

Honestly, at this point I think Alpine simply is the Chicago-area show. It was even advertised as such back in 2019 as Jimmy’s “only Chicago area concert” on billboards around the city. The last time I believe he did both an Alpine and a Tinley/Bridgeview show in the same year was 2016.

I believe it’s 1:00. Last time (2018) there was a line of cars lined up on the road waiting for them to open the gates and they did so right around then. It’s a pretty great time there!

Re: Who’s going the Del Ray Beach 5/13?

I wish! I had it in my cart but would never let me check out. If anyone has space in their pod, I’d love to come any of the days. I can come alone or with a friend to help fill it up!

Re: Delray Beach - May (4 shows)

More than happy to help fill out a pod if anyone has open seats. I don’t really care which day and can be a single or have a friend tag along if you have a pair to spare!

USS Zydecoldsmobile. I didn’t care for it at first. It’s one of my favorites on FSOTW now

Re: Alpine Valley 2020

I'm not feeling confident about it - but going back to recent history when Jimmy still played Tinley (and even Bridgeview), they would typically hold off on announcing Alpine until Chicago tickets had a chance to sell first. I remember most years we'd get a Tinley date and then not know about Alpine...

Re: CHICAGO!!!

I've seen Madonna and Neil Diamond there. It's fine, but those concerts kinda don't compare to Jimmy. Jimmy just feels better in an outdoor amphitheater.

For that particular 2018 show, we were lined up outside the gates at I believe 1 pm and they finally let us in.

Re: Cincinnati 2019

No harm in booking ahead, I just make sure the room has free cancellation. I had every weekend in August booked at the hotel i usually stay at for Alpine and then just canceled them all when July was announced.

Re: Cincinnati 2019

7/18 is my assumption as well. Went ahead and booked my usual hotel just to be safe. Assuming he skips Indy again, that Thursday smack in the middle of Detroit and Alpine has Cincy written all over it. Bigger question is will he skip Chicago? Usually it gets announced well ahead and Alpine, so maybe...

Re: Buffett Songs you just don't want to hear anymore....

BEG and Southern Cross are the two most obvious. I’ll echo someone else with Pencil Thin and Grapefruit, although I could take them if they were just a little more infrequent. I’d love to permanently retire License to Chill as well. Otherwise, as much as I love Back Where I’d Come From when they do ...

Re: Wrigley Field 2018

Oh I’m sure it could be in the clause this year. I just know for certain that Wrigley did not sell out last year (I checked for tickets on the main website every single day right up until an hour before the show - it didn’t sell out). That being said, Indy is about a 3 1/2 hour drive from Chicago. D...

There are pluses and minuses to every venue, I keep in mind this adventure must end at some point. Eventually he will stop touring. I make a point of going to as many shows each year as possible and making the best of where ever I am lucky enough to see a show. Enjoy the ride. I couldn’t agree more...

Re: Margaritaville TV question

I actually record almost all of the live streams on my computer. I'm not at home to check right now, but can you recall anything about them that would help me see if I captured that part of the video? I don't think I have the entire pre-show, but I know I should have some of it at least.
