If you can go to only ONE concert, where?
I'd love to plan a special birthday trip for a JB concert in 2012. If you could go ANYWHERE that he's likely to play in 2012, where would you go?
If you could go anywhere generally on the East Coast (doesn't matter if it's north or south), where would you go?
Birthday is in the fall, but the trip doesn't have to be.
Thanks!

Jones Beach is a great venue for a special birthday too.

I've seen him in Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville and Indianpolis. I'd DEFINITELY go to Tampa. The venue is great and the tailgating is THE BEST!!! Can't beat the weather and it's close to so many beaches you can go to afterward.

Re: If you can go to only ONE concert, where?
Based on the venues I've been to...(on the east coast)
Cinci or Greatwoods.....
But I tell you....hands down...you have to go to Frisco Texas at some point.

In A Pirate Looks at 50, Jimmy visits the Teatro Amazonas in Manaus. Brazil. To quote:"...the only true way to feel the wonder of this wonder of the world would be on that statge with my guitar in my hand. I know as we leave the rubber street and head back to the clamor of town that before I am through, I will play the Teatro Amazonas." I would love to see that concert.

I would ask for Stars on the Water. And Survive. Those would make me a happy camper.VanillaGrl wrote:lime rickie wrote:I'll request them all for Great Woods if it means we could see you both there.RinglingRingling wrote:I'll trade you Grapefruit for MYSB, go for HD and RR?VanillaGrl wrote:Can't top that... that's what it's all about.RinglingRingling wrote:one where I get to see as many of my friends as possible around me to enjoy the moment, and where both Havana Daydreamin' , and Grapefruit Juicy Fruit makes the setlist.*slightly modified*

I like Pittsburgh too. Always a great tailgate, the police and venue security are pretty mellow and it's a real nice venue.karat wrote:Pittsburgh, great tailgating
