Thanks Scott.. we are very excited!!! Unfortunately..Heather's mom will not be there this year since it is during the week!!! That still makes me laugh. You're the best!!Tarheel Tail-Gator wrote:So I guess I won't be making any "Heather's Mom is Cool!" statements from the lawn this year!Bac2theislandNC wrote:I think I may just do the Charlotte show this year.. We have a little 'keet on the way and I will be 7 months preg. Not sure If i would be able to handle 2 shows in 1 week. I'll miss y'all but hope to see some of you in CLT.
Tickets last year went quickly but I had better luck calling some obscure TM phone numbers in SC.
Congrats on Keet #2!!!![]()

He did Frisco first then Charlotte last year........hmmmmmm........he could just do NC first then TX this year.......
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

my whole group wasn't able to buy tickets on the day they went on sale. I found many in the lot the day of the show...I did however offer a free naughty lesson as well as face valuechesbayparrothead wrote:Hey guys, looking for some insight. We'll be coming down from Baltimore. How difficult are the tickets to get. I know up our way they usually sell out within minutes. I assume they will be on sale through ticketmaster.

Re: Who's going to Raleigh on April 23rd?
I would think Thursday tickets this early have to be easier to get than a Saturday show but Jimmy skipped Carolina for a few years so lots of people in line. We were online at top of the hour last year and didn't even get under the cover and I think they were sold out same day maybe even right away but I can't remember.chesbayparrothead wrote:Hey guys, looking for some insight.

I stay in this area for business, the Hampton Inn nearby is usually under $100 during the week. Also, if you can afford the Hilton or the Hyatt Place, these have both worked for recent Phlockings at the Bahama Breeze.
Take me for what I am, a star newly emerging.

not necessarily. It's easier to make it to Tampa from Raleigh than back out to TX that weekend.aeroparrot wrote:So I guess the Tampa rumor for this weekend is out?

I'm going to try and make it. It'll be a little tougher this time with two little ones in the house instead of just one. Although this time the concert is NOT on my wedding anniversary! lol

Re: Who's going to Raleigh on April 23rd?
Still hoping for a Dallas show at that time, but if there's no TX news the day Raleigh tickets go on sale, I'll try for tickets there.
It's as good of an excuse as any to go to N.C. and sponge off of my brother & sister-in-law for a week.

And Yay again for the out of staters. Like RinglingRingling said, it's a lot easier to get to Tampa from Raleigh in 2 days than to Dallas. Got my hopes up for Tampa, but Dallas would work too!Wino you know wrote:Still hoping for a Dallas show at that time, but if there's no TX news the day Raleigh tickets go on sale, I'll try for tickets there.

We'll be going for the all-day tailgate thing in Raleigh but I don't think it will be anything like last year. That was way too much work!
Hey Snake, we need more wine!
