A lot of people out there are freaking out about the ban on glow necklaces at Riverbend in Cincinnati. So here is the latest info...it is being lifted!
Late on Friday Jimmy's management firm HK Management was contacted and asked about the restrictions on glow necklaces at Riverbend. It was learned that this restriction was originally put into place for the safety of Jimmy and the band. Somewhere at a previous concert Jimmy was almost struck in the face by a glow necklace that came flying out of the audience. This necklace was unconnected and became a pointed projectile, which barely missed him.
HK Management is aware of Cincinnati's attempt to show their appreciation for Jimmy and the band by spearheading "Lights for 2 Nights." Knowing that everyone going to the show at Riverbend on June 18th is being asked to wear a glow necklace to entice Jimmy to do 2 shows in Cincinnati, HK MANAGEMENT SAID THAT THEY WERE GOING TO CALL RIVERBEND AND RECOMMEND THAT THE BAN ON GLOW NECKLACES BE LIFTED!
Hopefully everyone will participate in "Lights for 2 Nights" and will wear a glow necklace to the concert. But, remember the lifting of this restriction is an honor being bestowed upon Cincinnati! We must show them that we deserve their trust! PLEASE DO NOT THROW ANYTHING AT JIMMY OR THE BAND!!! That also applies to beach balls. Please keep them in the audience where they belong. Because of the bright lights Jimmy cannot always see into the audience and therefore can not see objects flying in from the dark. Jimmy and the band are not targets and please don't treat them as such. So, ABSOLUTELY NO LASERS! Let's give them the respect that they deserve!
So please Cincinnati, wear your glow necklace to the concert and keep it around your neck or on your head so Jimmy can see our glowing appreciation! Thank you!

I hope you are right and the ban is lifted, I bought a box of 50 necklaces to pass out on our club bus....I am curious how things will go, at least now, I know beach balls are allowed in and I do not have to stuff them down my pants, just the glow necklaces now!!!
