Spring & Summer Tour Dates Officially Announced

Post by **phjim** » February 27, 2002 6:02 am

The dates for the Spring and Summer Tour are now posted at Margaritaville.com. There are no changes from the Tour Dates first published here. The only change was the venue for the Dallas show is the Smirnoff Music Center. I've heard from different sources that the April shows will be going on sale on March 9th, and the remaining dates will go on sale sometime in March.

I'm thrilled. 2 shows in Vegas!!! Some more midwest dates would be great (St. Louis) but I'll happily take what I can get at this stage.

When I checked the Margaritaville site a couple of minutes ago, it still only showed Jazz Fest.

Hello everyone! this is my first time posting, so please be gentle with me

I can't wait to see Jimmy again!! The memories are truly priceless...what I can remember that is! Just a friendly hint for those planning to attend the Chicago show. Don't get shut out on a hotel like I did last year. Book now if you haven't already. I am pleased to say that this year we got in the Holiday Inn. Also, be careful if you choose the Baymont Inn. I booked online, was given a confirmation number, etc. and got bumped because they messed up and overbooked the hotel...35 reservations got bumped!! so if you feel compelled to stay there, call and speak to a live person.
And if anyone out there has any clue on how to get tickets to Alpine before it sells out, please let me know. I got shut out last year and had to scramble for tixs.

MICHIPHIN, I feel your pain! Might this be 2 straight summers without JB @ "The Knob" (oh I mean DTE)? From what I have seen and heard, but not necessarily fully remebered, the tailgates in Clarkston are hard to beat. His shows have sold out in less than 5 minutes for the last 5 years. JB at the Palace in November just doesn't take me away like July at the Knob.

Please Jimmy, say it ain't so!!

I agree with you Michiganders!! As a current Florida resident, I was planning to coordinate my annual trip home to Southeast Michigan this summer when Buffett was playing at the 'Knob. Shut out again????!!!! Nothing beats July in Clarkston, but a road trip to Chicago will have to come d*mn close!

Fins-ss: Don't waste your trip going to the show in Chicago! Sorry Chi-town, I road tripped it over there last year when Detroit got shut out, and was not impressed with Tweeter at all! Long lines to get into the parking lot took most of the afternoon and then the tailgate situation? We couldn't have been THAT spoiled at the Knob, could we? LAME! The venue itself is nice and clean, but wide open, sound escapes and you can see roads and traffic and everything!

I'll sure miss him in our backyard, but I'm going to Atlanta! Anyone want to caravan?

SpartyPH · Post by **SpartyPH** » February 28, 2002 2:32 pm

BTW Michiganders, it will ALWAYS be The Knob? Right?!

Guest · Post by **Guest** » February 28, 2002 3:42 pm

Atlanta rocks , tailgating starts around 9 or 9:30 in the am and I thought we were going to be early what a shocker.
See everyone in Nashvegas & Atlanta!!
