My husband and I spent many a night at The Pier back in 1975. Our wedding party even went there to party after our wedding. Sadly, I can't remember all the bands and singers we saw, just the memories of the good times we had with friends. It's so sad to see the pictures of what it looks like today.

Getting ready to leave Charlotte and head to Charleston! Can't wait to see Jimmy in Charleston!

Our son and his wife gave us Charleston tickets for our Christmas present. I have great kids! My sister and her husband are coming with us! Looking forward to Charleston in Feb.! Hope to meet some of you while we're there.

Not much longer now! Hope to meet some of you in Paris. My sister and brother-in-law went last year and are kind enough to take me with them this year. We are staying at the Hotel Albion. I know someone else on this board said they were staying there too, so maybe we'll get to meet.

Love the countdown, Capnbobby! We are doing a road trip to WPB from the Charlotte area. We are going to tailgate in Charlotte on the 21st, leave that night, stay in St. Augustine, then head out the next morning for Key West, stay the afternoon and night there (hubby and I have never been to Key West...

Woohoo! Got 4 lawn tickets! We'll be doing a road trip from Charlotte to West Palm Beach. Can't wait!

Brother-in-law just surprised my sister and I with tickets. He's driving us down, and sacrificing his ticket so I can go in his place! He's the best!! Can't wait!

Can anyone tell me what the parking lots are like at the venue? Did I understand that some of the parking is in a parking deck? Do people pull out their tiki bars and tailgate in the parking deck? I did google map the area, but couldn't really tell anything. We are planning to leave NC around 6 on S...

Hey, got four more from NC heading down for the concert. Looking forward to experiencing a new tailgating venue!

Charlotte show was announced on Jan. 22nd. last year. I know the date because my mother passed away on Jan. 21st and seeing the show announced the next day brought some sunshine to a sad time. Don't remember when they went on sale.

My family loves this dish!

Hey TTG, I will be going with a group of 15 plus, so I won't be tailgating with the BN group. However, we will come and find ya'll! Our group is coming from Kings Mtn., Shelby, Gastonia, Mt. Holly, and Charlotte and we plan to meet in Charlotte at 12 to head to Verizon. I sure hope they open the pre...

Is it Tuesday yet?! I'm ready!

I had my first taste of Rum Jumbie last night. Some friends of ours brought four different flavors back with them from St. Maarten. I only got to taste the pineapple rum and it was quite tasty. Hopefully, when they have us over again, I'll get to taste the other flavors!

I'm with you, PackPhanGirl....I'm soooooo ready for some excitement! I can't wait for this concert!!! I'm ready for some tailgating! I think we have 7 weeks today.

Hubby stopped by Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre on Tuesday to pick up another parking pass. The guy there told him the concert is still not sold out.

Didn't the lot open around 2 last year? Think they will do the same this year, or possibly earlier?

Couldn't get into Livenation this morning...kept getting error message. Tried again at 2:00 and got 4 lawn seats and a parking pass for Charlotte. See you there!!

AMEN!!!

Our school system (Gaston County, NC) uses biodiesel fuel in our buses. I use to smell like diesel fuel when I went back inside the school, after taking students to load on the buses, now there is an aroma of french fries. Of course, they don't totally run on bio fuel, but they are working towards i...
