Mental Floss, I hope! :lol: Along these lines, does anyone have guesses on what the general theme of the concert will be? I just can't picture how he will decorate the stage, etc., for "License to Chill". My husband was thinking maybe it will have a "frozen/cold weather" theme. A...

It's so interesting to hear about how the different states deal with alcohol consumption. Although it might be annoying, it's better than the former state of affairs. The 21st Amendment to the Constitution repealed alcohol prohibition (thank God!) and left alcohol regulation to the states. So it's b...

Not sure where they got the idea that Parrotheads engage in "hearty drinking and partying". :o The idea of a 3-hr tailgate is pretty lame. Frankly I'm surprised that the mayor and the Red Sox have such a huge interest in seeing this go through. Given the opposition, the procedural delays a...

Sunday Drinking in Boston?

I just thought of another problem w/ Buffett playing at Fenway, in particular on Sunday. When I lived in Boston (1995-1997), bars were closed on Sundays, and liquor stores/supermarkets couldn't sell alcohol on Sundays. (This law was a remnant from the Puritan days, I can only imagine, and also exist...

Actually, it sounds like the neighboors are in favor of the concert, but just don't like the Parrothead Village idea (tailgating). And while I was thinking, "yeah, could be quite a cleanup problem", it seems the main reason is the money -- For Ed Burke, executive secretary of the West Fen...

I think he does "go through the motions" to an extent for the SYKBH songs. But when it's a newer song, or one that he doesn't do often, he is definitely more into it. Also, I still have last summer's Today Show on my Tivo and watch it pretty often - I think he pretty much sings every note ...

Re: best part

When Jimmy plays Fins I love to turn around and watch the thousands of "shark fins" swaying left to right. I don't think I look at the stage once. :lol: I agree - Fins is just so great live. I also love the opening bars to One Particular Harbor. And of course I love the CILCIA video. Oh a...

I think an interesting aspect of Buffett is how he wasn't particularly successful at first but he didn't let that stop him. He perservered even when he didn't have many fans. However, he stuck to writing about what he KNEW and LOVED. Eventually it paid off, but only after a lot of hard work on his p...

Here's my take on it. Even if Jimmy plays Fenway, I don't think there's any way that he'll avoid Great Woods entirely. I think it comes down to whether he plays 1 or 2 shows at Great Woods. So my guess is that he will do 1 GW if he does Fenway, and 2 GW if he doesn't do Fenway. At the start of the S...

In my local paper (Sun Chronicle) It says Clear Channel stated Buffett will skip Great Woods if the Fenway concerts are approved.

I hope that's not true.

I am really suprised that Jimmy would allow this to happen again. . . .

I have absolutely no idea how these things work and ...

How exciting! The suspense is over! :D RM is doing the concert replay again. My gamble paid off - I'm still at work, notwithstanding all the great advice to leave it till tomorrow, and I get to hear the replay again. This way I can get off work earlier tomorrow and drink some margaritas! :) :) :)

Quick Question - Concert Replay

Did anyone notice that Radiomargaritaville did the concert replay at noon today? Usually on Tuesdays it's at 8 pm. Does anyone know whether they will re-do the concert replay tonight? I need to plan whether I'm going to sit here at work till 10:30 :-? (made bearable by the concert replay) or go on h...

The other great thing is that there would be less of an issue re: drinking and driving. Usually my husband stays sober, and it's just not as fun for him.
