So, Jimmy, I'll be in Florida from Jan 22-26 but I can't stay on the weekends. How about Tuesday in Tampa?
Or I could go back there in April, just after Easter.
And since I'm retiring next summer, I suppose you'll stop doing those Paris gigs I never could get to because of my schedule?

Hey family of 5, think we can convince both of our spouses to go to Sydney???? :D :D :D We can meet at Rockland Bakery and head to the airport together.
Hey Carol if they dont want to go i'm a free spirit.:)
Just kidding she"d go.
We went to Raliegh last year and had a blast. I think will are going to try to make one road trip(actually flew) a year plus whatever local shows, Jones beach, Camden, MSG, Mohegan Sun. Might be cheaper to go as a group.

I can't think that JB will return to Bristow, VA again with their new "no tailgating" policy....... :o

I know he did Virginia Beach this year, wonder what venue will replace Bristow? Will there be an actual Labor Day Show somewhere in 2012?

So many questions..... :pirate:

I think Jimmy has just about run his course..... No West Coast Dates this year pretty well summed it up.... He did what he had to do and he didn't do anymore..... The no tailgating policy is total BS.... People really love to gather and party, doesn't mean everyone is stupid.... You can get stupid in a restaurant that sells booze.... [smilie=asa.gif]

After Jimmy's successful trip "downunder" we need him back here for several concerts in 2012!!! The 'usual suspects' will be Sydney and Melbourne but a show on our beautiful Gold Coast (in Queensland) would be the icing on the cake.

Sure but at least in Sydney you don't need to surf the wake of a container ship... (X thread reference)

The way JB's tours are now overlapping calendar years, should this thread be "2012-2013 Tour"????? :roll: :wink: :pirate:

Personally, I would like to see a shakeup of the schedule so that GW is NOT on fathers day weekend. Partly selfish as it will conflict with Laconia Harley week and it looks like we are obligated to that again. And partly because I think a Labor Day weekend show would be awesome...

And of course, more dates for the west coast phans. They were shafted this year.

For the sake of a first time JB concert goer (me), can someone explain how the tours are usually announced? Do concert dates get announced one or two at a time like the first dates for 2012 have been announced, or is he likely to announce a whole season at once?

Thanks!

Welcome to BN! Should we call you New? [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif]

Some years it comes out in bits.....some times 3 or 4 at a time........once he announced it all at once and then things got a little crazy........so I doubt he would go there again..... :o But you never know........

So to answer your question......... [smilie=noeyedear-shrugging.gif] [smilie=noeyedear-shrugging.gif]

Just keep looking at BN......a lot......you'll soon be sucked into our reality.....but you'll smile a lot....... 8)

I believe they still need the parking lot on Labor Day weekend for the golf thing so I doubt that's going to happen. I'd love it, go to the show and then head to Nantucket the next day.
GW - 7/19
Great Northern MOTM - 7/20-21
Hershey Labor Day Weekend Show - 8/29
MOTM - Oct 28
