Re: Who's going to Paris 2011 9-26-11 ??

Comments calling me stupid are exactly why I rarely post on this board. I posted info about the show was not about being uptight, it was about sharing information with others about what happened in my experinece there. I'm done.

Re: How was buying extra tickets outside MGM last weekend?

Lots around for face or under.

I bought a 14th row center (Section B) 90 minutes before the show at the box office.

However, the second weekend might be a little different. My check of Ticketmaster yesterday showed the same kind of seats as last week at this time.

Good Luck!

Re: Who's going to Paris 2011 9-26-11 ??

Chris, thanks for your comments. For the record, I was not first in the door and would not have gotten them. Also, for the record, last year Jimmy handed me the flipflops, thinking I was the one who gave him the shark. I gave them to the Jill and Joek, who he had intended them for. So from my standp...

Re: Who's going to Paris 2011 9-26-11 ??

It's taken me a while to get back into the swing of things and add my comments on the show. Well, for the second year in a row, Jimmy gave the flipflops to the wrong person. He gave them to the "first in the door" guy. Unfortunately, that was the guy who security let go right through while...

I am going to Amsterdam first. I have not decided when to arrive into Paris or what I might do in between. It will either be Saturday or Sunday. I will check out the Queen Mary too. I will likely be at Le Relais Madealeine like last year.

Well, I am off the fence. I booked my flights yesterday and am now deciding about the hotel. Likely the same one near the Olympia as last year. See you all there!

Boomerang Love Up State-side?

At the Hordern show in January, Jimmy covered "Boomerang Love". He introduced the song saying "... I’ve always liked this song and am tickled to do it. I think this is going to go into the show up state-side, a little thing called Boomerang Love." I posted my video of it - here's...

Re: Sydney SET LIST 1/24 Monday

The video on Sunday night was not the normal supporting video, For example, during Fins, they show a school of circling sharks undeerwater. I could not see the screens from where I was dancing in the aisle Sunday night. A friend told me no circling shark video Sunday, but he had it on Monday. There ...

Re: Sydney SET LIST 1/24 Monday

I thought tonight's show was one of the best I've been too, sitting /no standing issue included. Jimmy was on fire with excitement. I have never seen him run around the stage so much. The changes to the set from Sunday were great. The video screens were back to normal and he worked in some great Aus...

Re: Tix sale for Sydney Opera House

Turns out they were selling unbelievable seats at the box office on Monday night. Met a group that bought four (4) third row center seats 10 minutes before the show. There were two empty seats in the fifth row center that went vacant all night. Probably the box office never sold those two. (I did pu...

Re: SYDNEY SUNDAY 23/1 SETLIST !!

From a music standpoint, I thought it was a pretty typical show. "When I'm 64" was pretty cool. I will comment that the crowds here are not the same as in the states. Everyone sat in their seats until the final song of the main set list. You got scolded if you stood. Every now and then poc...

After some initial confusion over the promotion code process, got my ticket. So did everyone I know who is going. Tickets still available on the presale too after 90 minutes.

I will look for you too. We will probably cross paths before the Wednesday. I am going on the cruise too. Section B Row 7 for the local club?! That's great. My experience has been that the local clubs usually don't get the best seats. It does look like Jimmy was listening. Looking forward to making ...
