I bet we could, and I bet if 35,000 of us or there about did, we would spend a whole lot less per ticket, and the venue would be packed with parrotheads, rather than corporate sponsors. Then we could all call each other names and insult each other in person.

Whooooo Hoooooo

Assuming it would cost $500,000 for Jimmy and the venue, if we did get just 35,000 of us together the base cost per person is just over $14.00 ($14.29 to be exact). Even if the cost were $1,000,000 it would still be under $30.00. I've got that much in change in my couch. Let's put this together!!!

My guess is that they don't actually represent Jimmy, but rather if you have the money, they'll attempt to get him on your behalf.

y'know, the scary part is, whether or not we could actually book him, we probably COULD afford it, collectively....

Well according to the current trend of posters who think Jimmy is a money grubbing fool.....

Yes he would come!
I am guessing we could pull this off! We could pick 10 Saturday night dates for him to choose from...
But no one has asked the question.... Where should it be? I vote for Florida!

I am going to be downtown on Monday and could stop by Jimmy's management company to just see what it would take to do this. If WalMart can do it we BN'rs certainly could. How cool would that be?!?!

LOL, Jimmy likes Necker Island, he has played there a few times, but thats $38,000 for 20 people to visit, and you have to have an "in" with Virgin CEO Richard Branson.
