Who's going to Dallas 4/28?

[RinglingRingling]

Hi all!

This is my dilemma. I actually have 2 sets of tickets for this concert and will be giving one of the sets to my brother and his girlfriend. But I have no idea which to give him!

One set is on the lawn. I figure I will get more of the true Buffett experience there. The other set is in section 202, pretty far back. But still, expensive reserved seats.

WWJBD?

depends on how old you are, and how well you tolerate being bumped, jostled, and spilled on. Personally, since I am almost ancient, I'd take the pavillion seats. you can always talk with the folks around you between songs, and you might be surprised who you meet.

He is right it all depends on your prespective, as for us we would never be anywhere else but the lawn seats, (spread you blanket, relax and take it all in) to us it is more like a good old fashioned concert when they had them in a field v. a regular concert. Cant' recall being bumped or spilled on but truly laid back and relax and enjoying the music of the islands

You've never been to Alpine...

[JanelovesJimmy]

Of course, we don't want a buncha gratuitous posts just to pump numbers.

That just wouldn't be right!

I wouldn't do that....

Going to order a pair of these, Connalulu?

Pepto Pink boots...........barf

[opharbour]

Is anyone gonna have a laptop so we can post back to BN with updates?

...live from the tailgate, that is

Or better yet, is there a wireless hot spot near hoot island that would allow us to set up a web cam?

This is a "I need a beer" kinda story.. so it will have to wait until I get a glass from the Shiner keg on the Island.

oddly, they have powers to prevent that... according to the folks at Justin.

[absinthe minded]

Just hush and do as you're told.
Feels just like home, eh??

Yes, ma'am!

May i have another please?

sounds like the voice of experience

Dammit - All the good ones are taken!

the "good", submissive guys?

Submissive? That's a little harsh, dontcha think?

I prefer the term "domesticated"

The closest one I can find is about a half-mile away as the crow flies. It's a laundromat called Bar of Soap.
This is outside my area of expertise, and I don't know what it would take to pull it off.
Their number is 214-823-6617 if you want to call them.

[Phox2]

Hey FP...what site did you get that map from? I have been to MAPQUEST and printed the directions from the Fairfield to the concert but the actual map it prints off is not detailed at all? Do you know where I could go to get one that would enable me to highlight the "trail to the tailgate?"
How many other people out there are staying at the Fairfield Inn and Suites??? We are hoping to check in early...if not, we will just drive in directly to the concert and get ready in the truck!!!!

obviously you've never met a red-head. You might want to limit your search for that quality to blond and dark-haired guys.

Have not. the lawn experience of "just putting a blanket down and enjoying the show" has not been part of the equation at Alpine or Cinci. (the indoor shows obviously don't count).

Not saying that Dallas doesn't have the mellow vibe, but the lawn has been a zoo everywhere I've been.

[conched]

Some folks will really enjoy the lawn. I enjoy the lawn in lots of places, but Dallas is a little wild for me and NOT your relaxing type experience during Buffett shows.

It all depends on lots of circumstances I guess, but I'd go for seats.
