Who's Going to Indy, Sat. July 10, 2021

[Tiki Bar]

I think I'm going to do the Indy/Cincy/Nashville week. It's been 11 years since I've been to Indy and I'm long overdue for a return. Got a cheap room at the Super 8 in Castleton(hope that's not the slums.. lol)

Ironically, unless anything changes, we are staying in the same Super8 slums as you!!

I’m going with a fun couple, arriving Friday afternoon. Maybe we can meet (not meat)! (old school BN joke!)

For sure Joann! I plan on a little pool time in the afternoon Friday and then hitting up Ryan Berner's pre-show gig Friday night. I'm sure I'll run in to you guys at some point.

I hoped to see Ryan on Friday too, but they’re still trying to find a venue.

I shared this post on the Facebook bn page too:

For all the people attending a concert at Ruoff this year, READ THIS.

Ruoff music center is set to kick off their first concert July 10 with Jimmy Buffett.

I attended orientation today and there are a few changes folks need to be aware of if you head out there this summer for concerts.

1. The entire venue will be cashless, everything will need to be paid for by credit card.

2.  they have taken out the ATM machines and replacing them with a Machine that you can put money in and it will give you a card. There is no service charge for this.. If there is extra money left on the card at the end of the night you can use this card at any store like a Visa card.

3. Any purses or bags taken into the venue will need to be clear/see-through

4. Lawn chairs are $10 this year

5. It will operate at full capacity, first concert they are expecting 25,000 people

6. They have built a new VIP seating area 2-story deck overlooking the lawn they are hoping it will be up and running for the first concert if not soon after.

7. They have also built an additional deck out on the lawn on the northside that matches the previous one they had on the southside

8. They are very much in need of workers. You can go out to the website and apply. It’s a great place to work!

9. The lawn looks amazing! It’s had a year of rest.

Can’t wait to get back to concert season… See you all out there!

My siblings have had a death in their side of the family and have to be out of town for the funeral, so we're not going. My brother has 5 lawn seats if anyone is looking.

Condolences to the family, and sorry you can’t make it. Sending you a PM for one for Alan, who is still awaiting password reset from phjim from a couple weeks ago.

According to the robocall I just received from Ticketmaster parking opens at 2PM. I believe that is the normal "official" open time in years past so hopefully if the cavalry starts lining up at Noon they will open it by 1PM.
