Fortunately, I was lucky enough to get a premier parking pass, so it made things a little easier for me. When I spoke to Karat on the phone, she was getting on the highway ramp where the backup started as I was getting off the ramp and I beat her to a parking space by probably 20-30 minutes. I left ...

I'm home in one piece. Pittsburgh was a fun town and Post Gazette was a great place to tailgate. It was a great show and I had a fun time meeting and partying with many of you.

Maybe Jimmy is going OUTSIDE THE BOX this tour like he has done with the set list! In Texas he said " We're gonna end this thing in Hawaii" So that would mean that Hawaii is after Vegas! You just never know! :lol: Last night in Pittsburgh, Jimmy made a comment that was something to the ef...

It's officially 5 o'clock here!! Pittsburgh, here I come!

I'm sure this has been covered a time or two in the past and I've done a search without finding anything. When/how did the "Salt! Salt! Salt!" chant during Margaritaville come about? I've been going to shows for nearly 10 years and I know it's been around since at least my first show. I re...

I wish Jimmy would add Tripping Billies to the regular rotation. That was a classic!
Just kidding!

Thank you all for the input. That pretty much seals my route then. I always have it as a plan B if necessary.

Yep. Looks like he's playing a free show at a mall.

And further to drive than me--I'm just 1.5 hours from Pitt. Going tonight to get an early start. :wench: According to mapquest, I'm facing over 4.5 hours. The highway closure is making it difficult. I don't know if anyone knows the best routes coming from DC, but I'm trying to decide between 70 wes...

Nope. According to his MySpace page, he's playing in Snowmass Village, Colorado tomorrow night. Too bad. I loved seeing him with the Reefers (and solo)!

I have actual....GASP....work to do.

So do I, but I've adopted the "put it off until monday" mentality.

You can count me in!!!!! I suppose we could start a vine and hope we get someone to start us off.

68 west through MD and into WV and then north on 79 might be less crowded. (How does your car handle hills?)

Never really taken any before in this. It's a 4 cyl suv, so it's not loaded with power. But it's pretty new, so it's still got plenty of life in it.

I figured since the Star Lake show is on deck, it was worth bumping this back into relevance. Otherwise, how is Jimmy going to know that we want him to play Nautical Wheelers. Right everyone?

Lucky you. I'm facing another 4 hours at my desk. Then home to get my stuff and then off to see the lizard.

Where did everyone go? I hope you're all at lunch!!! It's been almost 30 minutes with no posts. You better not be starting the party without me!

Very funny!!!

I can tell this is going to be the longest day ever at work. I don't care where it's 5 o'clock right now, I want it to be 5 o'clock right here and right now! 7 hours until the wheels hit the road.
