Jimmy at Dook

Post by ParrotheadPeteNJ »

As a UNC grad would this be outdoor or at Camoron Indoor Stadium (home of the wup-a** victory of the North Carolina Tarheels over the Dook Blue Devils Saturday night)?

Has Jimmy ever played Duke University before? My first Jimmy show ever was at the Dean Smith Center on 4/3/88?. It was my birthday and it snowed!

FINS UP!

I don't think so. The last stadium he played here was Carter Finley Stadium in Raleigh.

What's the venue like? I haven't found out yet if our PHC club tix will be for this one or Nissan; I'd really rather travel to Durham than to NoVa.

Football stadium, with no place to park nearby. :lol:

When we saw the Stones there a few years back, we had to take a shuttle bus and it took several hours to get out of there! :D

Assuming it's the football stadium that will be the most excitement the Dook football team has seen in a Looonng time!

Dezdmona-what a GREAT place for a wedding reception!...

Interesting to see Jimmy played "Carolina On My Mind"-James Taylor's from Chapel Hill-I'm sure Jimmy knows that. Actually saw JT do when he came back to the Dean Smith Center for a show around 1988. I think it was this song but JT was crying.

awww.... :cry: :cry: James is one of my favorites and he is a softy for Carolina. There is some very good footage of his family in his last DVD.

I hope to make a show in NC, but this is a NO go for me.
