GREAT TO HEAR about this, will be there for sure, do you think downtown DSM is ready for this LOL

I was at the girls state basketball tournament last night and was just trying to imagine the scene for the real show a comin ! and just had to wonder where everyone will set up, I had to park several blocks away from the event center and it wasn't even half full.

Got my tickets secured today, right where I wanted to be, right beside the bar LOL Glad it is only 6 weeks away..................

I was at the show in 1985 at sec taylor, it was rained out, so it is about time Jimmy came back to finish the show !*~*!

Well, if the little scare I had this week completely goes away, I may join you for some wings & beer after I take G..O.M. # 2 to the airport.
I'm getting excited too. 25 years and 63 concerts later, I finally get to see him in Iowa. :-)

The iowa events center sent out an email saying they would also be opening the parking lots at Principal park at 8 am on Tuesday for over flow tailgating, however the box office knew nothing about that yesterday when I called LOL

I was at the Iowa Cubs day game on Tuesday and can tell you it is a pretty good hike to the wells fargo from principal park, they should have a shuttle of some kind but have heard nothing about that.

I did pick up an extra pair of tickets yesterday for $12 a piece for 2 more folks wanting to go.

Just decided like an hour ago that we will be driving over to DM tomorrow afternoon for the concert. Where is the place to be? Does anyone know if there are still tickets available for the Parrothead Party?
