We're planning on doing the ticketmaster thing.Already have a room at the Holiday Inn. Hoping to get decent seats,or any!got a fix at Vegas but Aug.is too far. We also will try Indy on Tues.
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane.

I apologize to who pmd me. I accidently deleted it. You were asking about Chicago hotels and tailgating. Last year,the preparty was at the Holiday Inn at Tinley Park in their parking lot. They cater to parrotheads and is very close to venue. I think parking lot at Tweeter opened around 3:00 and we had a great time tailgating there as well. The other Holiday Inn is close by in Matteson.

Don't feel bad Tiki, when the CIP opened in Indy a radio station was giving away tickets to the private show. They were looking for caller 95 and I was caller 94. :cry: :cry: :evil: :evil:

Would anyone coming to town possibly be interested in going to the Cubs game Friday afternoon? I thought maybe if we could get a group together it would be a GREAT time.

Possibly only if they were true CUBS fans, and if they wanted to hit Goose Island for a pint or 15 before and after the game.

Hey phruits.

I'll be there once ticket master bellies up.

Couldn't get a room at the HI this year, but got one at the Marriaot.

That would be awesome! That is, if we could get tickets....

And I guess you wouldn't be going then Gumby, since you aren't a fan anymore after last year? :roll:

I'll be there for the Sat concert. Haven't missed a Saturday concert since he started playing the World/Tweeter in Tinley (although I have missed one that I attended, if you know what I mean :oops: :oops: ). The Saturday concert is a must attend (I also regularly go to the Thu concert, but have missed a few).

Wow. Talk about being a little nervous. I got shut out of tickets 3 times this morning before I finally got through to get my 4 lawn seats.

Anyone else have problems?
