Who's going to Charlottesville 11/17/09 ??

Post by Carolinadreamin' »

Well I'm figuring Dori is going...... 8) And I'm willing to venture into enemy territory...... :lol: Sorry UVA fans.....in this house it's Boston College, Virginia Tech and Clemson :D :D

So.....if everything works out.......anybody interested in a pre-Thanksgiving concert? :pirate:

I like to make it to new venues whenever I can but this is looking mighty doubtful right about now.

WAHOOWA!
Hope you'll consider coming to Cville for this show. JPJ is an exceptional venue! I've seen a couple dozen shows/concerts/games there since they opened. Shout if you need tips on places to stay and eat :P C'mon down, Y'all!

I can tell you that from the standpoint of "sound quality" this is a TERIFFIC venue!

I have every intention of being there at this point! :D

It's a long way off, but I'll probably plan to work in the area, so I can attend the show. Might need a propane heater at the tailgate for this one!

There are two surface lots (large) and they will likely sell "premium" parking or something. It's worth getting when you purchase tickets. One lot is right in front of JPJ and the others are at U-Hall. There are plenty of other lots/garages close by.

the sat photos on google maps are old and show the place under construction... oh well. here's the link that has some better images of the area.

No info on when tickets are going on sale for the JPJ show. I keep asking around and checking the JPJ site frequently. I'm guessing that this show isn't making headlines because a) "where's charlottesville?" b) MOTM is right before this show. But I'll keep a close eye to the local sources anyway :) I'm excited!

Jake Shimubukuro is scheduled to appear with Jimmy at this one, which means I'll HAVE to work some magic and try to pull this off.

I would be off work at this time, but fairly fresh out of the hospital, would be great, not that far, but no way...


UM, for those of us that do not know the Venue Name...could you spell it out? JPJ does not mean much to me

Does anyone else have a bad feeling about him now playing at JPJ?

Or am I just being paranoid?
