Oh Rick, I remember you. We were standing right in front of you, waiting in line to get into Tommy Rockers on Friday night. I was the one with the "Buffett for President" hat.

If anyone is looking for a hotel close and reasonable, here is a good hotel.

MikeJW, Well written. That first post was informative, but it would freak people out who are not from the area. I have grown up and lived in Chicago my entire life, and I know that would have freaked out me a bit if I were coming to town as a newbie. And its the Best Western Hawthorne on Broadway :)...

Seems as of late, this board has alot of negative tones. Why? I would think we are all here for the same thing: Enjoy the great music of a marketing genius .

We'll I wouldn't want to define a "true" fan, but I can tell you what a true fan is NOT. It's NOT someone who called into US99 radio station last week and said "Oh my God, I am so excited Buffett is playing at wrigley. Do you know when tickets go on sale?", when that was announce...

I think the bars are all affiliated, not sure if they are all the same owners. I personally think $25 for 4 hours is a good deal. But would probably need to get people to pay upfront as a minimum number would be needed to reserve and confirm. Thoughts???

As a reference:

$25 for 4 hours for import/domestic draft, well drinks, wine, Pop.

Also, IUParrothead, the idea of doing a bar on Saturday sounds good. If you need help co-ordinatining, let me know. I am not far from wrigley and know of a manager at a bar this is about a mile from Wrigley and right off the brown line that may be willing to sponsor something. He has done buses to B...

Is there anyone out there just looking to buy two tickets and would consider buying 6 and I could send you the money on Monday. I am good for the money. Just a thought as I will be starting a new job that day and I don't think it would be appropriate to ask "Can I be excused to try and get Buff...

Well the hopes and dreams have been smashed, like so many paper beer cups (Steve Goodman). The order tickets have been cancelled .

Remember the old saying "If it seems too good to be true..." Well let's hope that saying is wrong this time. Put in for my tickets as well. Only time will tell...........

Well Scott, we already have the route figured out and all the bar stops along the way to Wrigley IF he shows up for the Labor Day Weekend shows!!! We watched the 15 DVD clip on the new Hawaii CD and I wanna go see him NOW!!!!! We are heading out tonight with Andrea and her roomie for the 6pm-9pm $10...

Scott, et al.... I know you were being funny, thats why I said "other than headparrot". Hell, I am not pushing no bus out of the mud either LOL. The bus company we have taken has always been good about being around the bus so you can walk on and off without a problem. We only try to get 35...

Hey Scott (HeadParrot), other than your posting, these other postings kinda a little p*** me off. You people are giving others some pretty negative feedback. We have done this in the past 3 other times and have never had a problem. We use the same company and have made some great friends (HeadParrot...

With the possibility of Buffett playing at Wrigley in Chicago, it got me thinking about the concerts last year at Fenway. If anyone attended, how was the sound and acoustics? Considering its not a concert venue, was the sound adequate, good, mediocre? Also, if anyone can recall, what were the ticket...

My friends and I are considering reserving a coach bus (with bathroom) from the Wrigleyville area to Alpine Valley. The bus would leave approx. 1 or 2 pm and return after the show. We are looking for others who would be interested in joining us on the bus. Depending on the number of people we can ro...

s*** I wish 8 hrs...still have about 22 hrs....im jealous

I thought the scavenger hunt would be a fun thing to do, but none of my friends want to do it LOL.

Did anyone do it last year?? How was it??

Jeff in Chicago
