The Semi-Offical Back In Columbus Thread

[PHat Matt]

Okay..I ran into a bit of a snag. I wolnt be at the Holiday Inn untill about 2. I have a doubleheader soccer game Sat. morning followed by a end of the season team party. Right after that, IM ON MY WAY!!!!!!!!!!!

ALSO....IF YOU DIDNT ALREADY KNOW....

JUNIOR MINT PALM, SON OF LONE STAR PALM, WILL BE OVERNIGHTED FROM MINN. TO ME TOMMOROW, MEANING HE WILL BE THERE ON SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

[JW]

Two parties full of Parrot Heads, a great weather forecast (so far!), and Jimmy on stage! How can ya beat that!

Right now, planning on arriving between 2 and 3, so maybe I'll see all of you down there!

[LastMango]

If any of you need tickets, go to ebay. Most Columbus tickets are going for much less than face. We just got ours yesterday for less than half price.

[Duffett]

What about the no open containers rule?

[FanInCincy]

Anyone staying at/partying at Holiday Inn that wants to meet up PM me your number!

[Coconuts]

Duffett, I'm going to venture a guess that you've never been to a Buffett show before. You can't even have alcohol in most of the parking lots. (Yeah right!!) Just don't act like a drunken fool and you should be ok.

And a fast food cup with a lid and straw works very well usually. I like the Sonic cups, they add flavorings to their drinks so it's harder to identify what's in it, and they're styrofoam so your drink stays colder longer.

[MargaritaMatt]

Though some research and guessing, this is what my prediction for the set list tomorrow night is (Not that these would be my exact choices):
1. CILCIA
2. Great Filling Station Holdup
3. Pencil Thin
4. Only Time Will Tell
5. License to Chill
6. Gypsies in the Palace
7. Son of a Son
8. If the Phone Doesn’t Ring its Me
9. Brown Eyed Girl
10. Volcano
11. Why Don’t We Get Drunk
12. Hey Good Lookin’
13. One Particular Harbor
14. Smart Woman
15. The Pascagoula Run
16. Jamaica Mistacia
17. Come Monday
18. Grapefruit Juicyfruit
19. Jolly Mon
20. 5 O’Clock
21. Cheeseburger
22. Coat of Carolina
23. Cuban Crime of Passion
24. Southern Cross
25. Margaritaville
26. Fins
27. Back to the Islands
28. Pirate Looks at 40

[Coconuts]

I'm just glad he's doing Jamaica Mistaka- This will be my mom's first Buffett show, and that's her favorite song.

[ladyparrothead]

OMG! I just bought a ticket for the concert tomorrow and will be flying in on the red eye! I am so excited! Now I have to read this thread and find out what is happening! Somebody talk to me!

Way to go Lynn! Where are you coming in from? Most of us are meeting at the Holiday Inn for the tailgate party which starts at 2. Some of us are staying there and some are staying at the Super 8.

Thanks, I have a room (somewhere a few miles away) but at least I know where to go to party!

Oh yeah! Add me to that list!

[Coconuts]

I'm leaving in 2 hours, but working for the next hour and fifteen, I am SOOO hyper it's not even funny, I'll be lucky if my coworkers (well, the semi-parrothead who sits to my left in particular) don't kill me between now and then!

[ptaylor]

New to the forum!! Looks like Columbus is going to be hopping this weekend. I can hardly wait.....

[finzup9]

26 hours and 54 minutes as of now can't wait!!

[Fool Button]

If any of you need tickets, go to ebay. Most Columbus tickets are going for much less than face. We just got ours yesterday for less than half price.

Hey LastMango---that is no kidding. Scored $38 seats for $15 each. Tickets in hand and headed to the show.

Couldn't pass that up!

Will people be wearing their BN nametags and/or lanyards? I will be wearing mine - just haven't seen anyone else wearing theirs at a concert

We met briefly in Charlotte and we will be wearing BN tags and lanyards.

Welcome to Ohio and here's hoping for a great concert.
