Well this year's tour has regretfully come to an end (as far as we know), and 2006 is rolling around pretty fast here. I dont know what all this talk about possibly not touring in 2006 is, but I think it's obvious that Jimmy will be going strong for several more years.
Bearing that in mind, how many shows do you plan on attending next year?
I know that it will be tough for me because I will be out of the country for 4 months (Jan-May), but I hope to hit up some summer or fall shows, if I'm able to get tickets in time.
Feel free to add where you plan on attending as well (Lets not turn this into a 100-page Alpine Valley thread though )
I want to see him in places I have not seen before. I am hoping for Phindianapolis, Great Woods, Cincinnati and 1 other location as yet to be determined. I would also like a return trip to Vegas. I think that about covers my 2006 entertainment budget(excluding any potential 5 figure Lottery winnings).
Timing in life is everything!
Alpine, Blossom, Noblesville, Poplar Creek, Tinley, Toyota Park, Vegas, Wrigley; 22 years and counting.
I put 0 but not for ticket prices. Usually Buffett plays my area on a weeknight which makes his shows impossible to attend since I live so far away from the venues he tends to hit. Ticket prices may also play a part but obtaining them is another story entirely.
Toronto. Jimmy has to keep his promise to return while still in his 50's
Tampa. Got to get to a Phlorida phlocking
Philly. Had such a good time last year
Great Woods/Tweeter. mommar owes me a corona and I've got to collect
That doesn't rule out Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Chicago, or Detroit either.
Dumb and drunk as I was, you know I would do it all again.
Planning on 5 - 9 I want to make it to 100 before he calls it quits. 74 and counting? I've seen him in all the "Best" places, and each one has it's own unique experience. I do like the last show when it is in Vegas, because it becomes a 3 to 4 day party hopping experience and the actual concert just becomes the pinacle and finale.
Nothing in my opinion will ever top the Fillmore West experience.
I'd love to get to a whole bunch, but I'm going to make a big effort to get to at least two. I told two people (including my best friend, who isn't exactly a parrothead.... yet) that they're coming with me next year! Hopefully he'll play closer to home next year!
Of course the Tampa show.... and I always consider all the Florida shows when making my plans. I would love to get to Vegas. And Columbus if thats a date..... the rest I will just play by ear....

You don't need to drag non-PH friends to these shows. Use BN to your advantage. I knew no-one going to Philly and had the best time at the show. Trust me. BN'rs take care of their own.
If you and I are going to the same show, feel free to hang with me.

That's the truth!! Hubby and I showed up to Nissan knowing basically no one. We had met 3 people in person before, and 2 of them only briefly.
