On the way home yesterday, I heard the promo for the concert on country radio.... Heavy Landshark promo.... Like a whole weekend of Landshark activities.... I wonder if Budweiser had something to do with the this date selection. It also was the same station Jimmy did the show from HI last year for t...

Last November I had all 3 computers going and ended up with 6 sets of tickets.... At $126 a pop I was a bit nervous about it.... but sold them all to Bn'rs with in a few weeks.

Just put the Days Inn Fairgrounds on a hold and then I saw the Masters Inn was closer and cheaper . Both can be canceled as long as it is 3 days prior. Anyone with knowledge of either of these would be greatly appreciated. You do not want to stay in the Masters Inn. Period. End of story! On another...

It's never safe to "assume" anything.

In business... assumptions are based on a track record.... like past book sales... So in this case, I believe it would be a safe assumption. So does the publisher.

Hey ToplessRideFL, do you know the DeLeied Parrotheads? I met them at Clearwater Beach last time I was down there...

No but sounds like I may like to!

just thinking about something.....

Wouldnt the CRB make more money in 2 shows playing with Jimmy that at MOTM.... even with the CD sales?

Just wondering...I dont have any scientific knowledge of how much the CRB band members make...nor do I care.

Who says it's going to be "best-selling", especially when it hasn't even been published yet.

All his other books were Best Sellers. Its a safe assumption this will be as well.

You did very well my phrend! And you make excellent points. As usual

I think they are in Kingston. They said the eye wall will be passing South of them in Kingston in a couple of hours. Hopefully not a direct hit of the eye. SO far looking at the map.... Jamaica will not get a direct hit. BUT... they are on the North side of the storm.... which is where the winds an...

How awful to be waiting to be slammed into by a Cat 4 or 5 storm.

welcome to our world here in Florida.... thank goodness its relativly rare occurance.

Philly Phin Power to all those in harm's way. :( Especially our Jamaican friends who can't leave the island. We have traveled there and have become friendly with some on the island, really worried about them and their families...... more prayers and thoughts go out to them... Ditto... we call Ocho ...

went to the Reebok / Rockport store yesterday..... It was hubby day! 2 pair of work shoes (which we usually spend $80 each on), sneaks, Greg Norman golf shirts, softball shorts.... all on sale and all another 40% off!!! Spent about $150 for the lot!!

Thanks again jmebuffett !!!

i've been dying to go to MOTM for years and for us to actually go and not have CRB is a bit of a disappointment. done. :) 8) I know it is Carol. :( And while I posted the black and white answer.... deep down in my heart I DO wonder why that date was chosen.... but we may never know so I have to liv...

I'm sure someone who went last year can give more info.

Red Roof in across the street behind Wing House is the best bet if you can grab a room.

Or Hard Rock Resort and Casino. They have a shuttle. Its across the highway so u cannot walk... but a cab wouldnt be $10

I am so worried for all our friends in Jamaica.... Phin Power to you all!

3000 or so people are disappointed the Reefers won't be at MOTM. 20,000+ people will be happy to see the Reefers with Jimmy at each of 2 concerts in Tampa. on't I know its not the popular answer.... but I agree with you Larry. However :oops: :oops: I will be in Tampa for at least one of the shows.....

Surprised on the timing..... but 2 shows in Tampa is unprecidented I do believe.
