Nothin' is ever a given, and while I do find it difficult to believe he'd pass up on Alpine, he hasn't ALWAYS played there. Wtih nothin' else to discuss while we wait for official word, working on a plan "B" doesn't hurt.RumFan wrote:What's with all this talk of Jimmy NOT playing Alpine? Has this actually been brought up as being a realistic possibility?

I guess anything's possible. But it just seems with all of the rumors and date possibilities that have been flying around (thank you dino and Captain P), the possibility of Alpine not happenening does not seem very likely. I would be more worried if there was nothing coming out at all as far as rumored dates.
I am going to stay the optimistic Parrothead and say it's on for sure, probably in July!!!

Just a reminder... Dino doesn't have any contacts w/in Buffett management... his contacts are through hotels... therefore, he might hear word of a confirmed date before any of us, but he doesn't have insight on the actual probability of a concert date being confirmed.RumFan wrote:I guess anything's possible.

Thanks for the optimism! We're all pulling for another warm sunny summer afternoon and evening near East Troy! I do believe this is Buffett's northernmost lattitude for an outdoor venue, so let's hope he likes our attitude!RumFan wrote:I guess anything's possible.

You're love's put me at the top of the world
