Saturday Feb 19, 2005 - Ft Lauderdale, FL - Office Depot

SOASOAPT · Post by **SOASOAPT** » January 12, 2005 5:00 pm

I'm still looking for a ride to this one. Who wants me?

No one has claimed SOASOAPT for this concert - who else is going? This concert is on a Saturday, and he's got a date with Prthd119 in Jacksonville on Monday. We need to find someone who will be at both shows. If that's not possible, she said she'll drive to Daytona on Sunday to pick him up.

Anybody willing to help?

I will be there too.

Went last year and met up with the PHC at the Crowne Plaza, does anyone know if they're arranging another party like that again?

P.S. SOASOAPT: I am going to all three shows so I may be able to help out, PM me if you'd like.

FP - If things work out, I might be able to take my "son" to the concert. I'll get back with you!

Do you think I can still get tickets? My brother lives in Coconut Creek and was thinking that doing a concert with him would be fun. 2/19 being a Saturday and a holiday weekend, I am thinking it might be a good weekend for a trip.

fishinforfood · Post by **fishinforfood** » January 18, 2005 5:15 pm

I'm just glad the concerts are coming faster and faster for us Floridians, I'm still not sure I'm recovered from the Orlando show... should be a good one, any idea if we may still get a summer concert series??? or is this gonna be it for the year for us?

longlinergirl · Post by **longlinergirl** » January 18, 2005 5:43 pm

I'm going...woo hoo lets start planning pre parties....I think I am actually springing for the expensive seats this year!!!!!

Yeah I know I am flying from RI and I had to leave the 14thand stay thru the 23 to get 150 roundtrip on Southwest. They seem to be all booked though. I think Orbitz also had some low fares but from like the 18th thru the 23 or something.

I GET E-MAILS FROM DELTA ON WEB FARE'S HOPEFULLY SOMETHING WILL POP UP.I CAN'T TAKE THE TIME OFF,AND GETTING A FRIDAY IN AND SUNDAY OUT FLIGHT NON-STOP IS EXPENSIVE.CHEAPEST DAYS TO FLY.TUE. OR WED.SOMETIMES THURSDAY'S.THE FUNNY THING IS THE CONCERT TICKETS ARE PROBABLY THE EASIEST AND CHEAPEST TO OBTAIN

longlinergirl · Post by **longlinergirl** » January 19, 2005 10:02 pm

I wouldn't suggest non stop if you are looking for inexpensive fares. This is by far the easiest concert to get tickets for. Anyway, well I hope you make it and I hope to get to meet (not meat) some people again this year! Last year was a blast!!!

longlinergirl · Post by **longlinergirl** » January 21, 2005 4:03 pm

Am I the only one who doesn't see this show listed on ticketmaster?????
***** If you have AOL they send you to their TM site...and JB SUnrise is not listed there...You have to go to TM through explorer..Just a heads up
