Haven't heard, but the bus has been there every year. Last year the Chicago PHC hosted a meet n greet too. Seems 5ish at bus typically, and 5:30 or 45 at the PHC. I can ask tonight if they are again. The Margarillas have been at Margaritaville today.

I have a feeling you're right!

Just read on facebook that the bus will be there tomorrow. Is everyone aware of the Packaging Permutations contest? Good luck!

Bowing out of Margaritaville tonight :cry: (way too busy at work.)

On the plus side I picked up brats, hogie buns, mustard, and a new cooler :)
I think I'm probably only bringing a few drinks, 1/2 summer shandy and 1/2 Sam Adams... going to be too hot to drink much out there :o

Not going to make it to M'ville tonight. See you guys tomorrow.

Same for me. After today's Cubs game, an evening in air conditioning feels good.

Water in freezer and refrigerator. Picked up some cut-up melon, and got a few other things. See everyone (other than mother nature, I hope) tomorrow!

See you at 10AM at the Mcdonalds :)

SO glad I don't have a concert to attend today... just got home from Margaritaville due to flooded road closures.

Hope y'all stay dry enough and cool enough, and enjoy an amazing show.

Hope those of you out last night managed to get home safe and sound-that was quite a storm.

JoAnn--thought about you when I heard about all the roads closed from the storm--just glad you are safe.

This one won't be pretty--mother nature is not happy with us :o

Good Morning BN-ers, it's the big day!

Everybody stay cool & dry (on the outside at least) - plenty of fluids and some of them not alcoholic!

See you @ the show!
First you learn the native customs
Soon a word of Spanish or two
You know, that you cannot trust them
'Cause they know, they can't trust you
Expatriated Americans, feelin' so all alone
Telling themselves the same lies
That they told themselves back home
