We should be there. Just trying to get an idea of whose coming.
Don't forget everyone's invited to the party at our house after starting around Noon. Just PM me for all the details and so I know how much booze to get!

Sorry Matt...I was looking forward to going...but the friend that was going to get me tix fell through!

sorry i have to work and live to faraway.
ill have to tape it.

Why did I know that was coming!

cause you feel guilty!

I do...AND YOU'RE NOT HELPING!!!

I'm going!
And I think I convinced my hubbie to get there at about 2 am. Gotta admit, I'm not looking forward to all the standing afterwards.

Can't wait - just 4 days left!

Workin' a half shift till midnight, then I'll be drivin' in.

I was planning to. Heck, I never go to sleep before 3 or 4 anyway. I can hold up for another few hours.

But do you have to have tickets?

Nope, no tickets needed...Just strong legs and a stronger bladder.

Yipes!!

Hey NYC, lets us know what you are wearing and we can look for you...also, slap Roker in the back of the head for me will you?? Just say it is from "a guy in Idaho"...

Anyone want to guess what he'll play (in addition to Margaritaville)? I'm HOPING for Everybody's Talkin' and Saxophones. I don't think it'll be Knees of My Heart since he did that on the Tonight Show. I also don't think he'll do 5 O'Clock Somewhere, even though he I would LOVE for him to do it!!!

yep, too bad soo sad

If we go we are being "hooked up" by a friend of Mrs. Port who is a reporter for Dateline, so we should be right up front in the VIP section.
I'll be wearing a loud shirt with lots of fish on it and my Yankee hat.

Got room for a well-travelled palm tree from Texas?

I am planning to make the trip to see Buffett on the Today show, however I have never driven to NYC before and am in need of some help. Anyone have any idea of the address where the plaza is as well as where I might park for the day??? I am heading in from PA and will be driving, so I will need a place to park while waiting to see the show. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I wanted to make the trip last year, but was not able to, so this year I want to be sure to get there without too much worries.

margarita_girl,

we went two years ago and we took the train (NJ transit) from Trenton then walked to rockafeller center. We got there at about 10:30 and were "near" the front. NJ transit was really inexpensive (as opposed to amtrak) parking was near by and it worked well for us. Be prepared to pretty much stand all night and eat lots of salty foods before you go so that you don't need a bathroom until after he plays.

Good luck - I hope you get a spot with a great view - it's lots of fun!

I wish I were going, but will be taping instead...

I've never seen the Today Show, but I noticed today it's on 7am-10am round these parts. Will Jimmy be on any particular time or times, or do I have to record the whole show on the slower speed, lesser quality setting?

Times like these I wonder why I don't have TIVO!

Hope you all have a great time!
