OK, I'll start. Shouldn't something be announced soon? Any thoughts on GW show or have you heard any rumors?

He is usually in the know. My guess was that or the 19th. Which may be a no-go for me. Hopefully the 12th though.

Re: Great Woods
If it's in August, that will be a little over 2 years since my last Buffett concert and 11 years since my last trip to Great Woods.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Re: Great Woods
The people we both know are saying either the 12th or Labor Day. Pat confirmed the Labor Day rumor.TommyBahama wrote: ↑February 21, 2023 7:28 pmHe is usually in the know. My guess was that or the 19th. Which may be a no-go for me. Hopefully the 12th though.

Re: Great Woods
There is a Peter Mayer show at Stephen's Talk House on Sept. 6th. Let the speculation begin.

Re: Great Woods
I think they alternate years with another tournament now. I will check the PGA schedule.lime rickie wrote: ↑February 24, 2023 5:57 pmLabor Day weekend show?

Re: Great Woods
What used to be the Northern Trust Tournament has moved to Memphis. The final Tournament Championship is at the end of August in Atlanta. Which technically ends the PGA season. So Labor Day weekend is open.lime rickie wrote: ↑February 24, 2023 5:57 pmLabor Day weekend show?

Definitely would be cool to have a Labor Day weekend show again. A lot of the more connected folk are thinking this is the date. If it’s Labor Day weekend I’m out unfortunately. I’m thinking this is a Cinci and Jones beach summer for me.

Re: Great Woods
Peter is playing on LI Sept. 6th. So, it is possible. So is Jones Beach. Which would be a traffic nightmare on a Labor Day weekend.drunkpirate66 wrote: ↑February 28, 2023 7:18 pmTommyBahama wrote: ↑February 28, 2023 5:23 pmWhat used to be the Northern Trust Tournament has moved to Memphis.

Re: Great Woods
Has he ever played Jones Beach on Labor Day weekend? I don't recall. I'd be shocked if Jones Beach booked him for that Saturday. But it would be freaking awesome and fits perfectly with the two day hangover I would have.

Re: Great Woods
The closest to Labor Day Jimmy has played at Jones Beach was August 31, 2010 which was the Tuesday before Labor Day that year
