OK less then 1 hour to go, it really kills me right now, since i was suppose to be in VEGAS this weekend. Oh well, less then one month til CHICAGO shows-- and 3 months til Indy and Alpine

Hi SirGumby. I'm glad Jimmy is about ready to start again. I need a vacation.

I hear ya loud and clear---i can't really consider the chicago shows a vacation, since they are literally right down the road from me. oh well, im all set----i have my fridge stocked full of beer, you cant beat the price at the local Meijer's 7.49 for a 18 pack of Miller Products----have 10 of them chilling in my fridge right now--that should take some of the ease off

No beer to drink for me. Don't touch the stuff. LOL I am thinking about making a few margaritas or pina coladas. I wasn't able to get to the shows here in NC and have never seen Jimmy in concert, but have heard it is great. I hope to see him here next year.

if i wasnt to lazy, i may consider making a batch of ritas-----but im almost ready to crash---only thing keepin me up is the upcoming show

I hear ya. This time of the year is aweful. I teach so the kids are bouncing off the walls. Keeps a person tired.

The Walrus · Post by **The Walrus** » May 25, 2002 10:57 pm

I'm not tired at all. I plan on being up for a while.

Margaritaqueen · Post by **Margaritaqueen** » May 25, 2002 11:00 pm

I plan on staying up til Jimmy is done, whenever that might be. Tomorrow is my sleep late day.

Lucky you, must be nice to be able to party all night long-----i wish i could still do that

The Walrus · Post by **The Walrus** » May 25, 2002 11:01 pm

Oh yeah, I can. I was up 'till 4 AM playing video games a few nights ago. Caffeine is a wonderful thing.

I just got back from a Columbus Crew game, and it was timeless. However, due to a 25 minute weather delay, I wasnt able to stay around for the extra time, due to stopege time, during the last 5 minute overtime period. However I did listen to the radio brodcast, and it turned out that the Crew ran out of time and had to settle to a tie with Dallas. Well 1-1 isnt to bad, hopefully we'll do better next time. Cant wait untill the next time I go to a Crew game.

I Miss those days-----working 2 jobs, one from 9am to 4 the other from 5-10 or 11. Going straight from that job to the bars til 4am, then goin out for the drunken breakfast. Make it home with a hour or two of sleep. Then do the same thing over again the next day. Boy were those the days

Margaritaqueen · Post by **Margaritaqueen** » May 25, 2002 11:07 pm

The Walrus · Post by **The Walrus** » May 25, 2002 11:07 pm

Hi all. This is my first time doihg this. Also will be my first time listening to JB on Margaritaville. Made it to Florida for 3 shows in Feb. & Raleigh and Charlotte in April. I'm ready!

PHat Matt · Post by **PHat Matt** » May 25, 2002 11:09 pm

Eariler in the year, one of his openers was a "Jimmy raap", so I hear you've never been to a concert Margritaqueen?!!?

Margaritaqueen · Post by **Margaritaqueen** » May 25, 2002 11:10 pm

No Matt I never have. We were supposed to go when he was here in Charlotte, but couldn't make it so we gave our tickets away. Maybe next year.
