Madison Square Garden
Nissan
The Today Show
Jones Beach, well, never been until August 27....

I've been to 9. Saw my first in 1982 I believe. Most of my friends consider me to be an ultimate parrot head. However I am no where near some of you. I'm awe of you (and a bit envious)

I guess around 35 - 40. I wish i would have thought to keep track :lol:
My first was in Los angeles in the old Universal Amphitheatre (the same place Jimy had the Millennium show), but before they roofed it over. Many small venues (compared to today) including Cal Expo (Sacramento) and Concord Pavilion (Concord, CA).

I only keep the ticket stubs to use as CD covers for the recordings of the shows that I've gone to. And BubbaFreak (Jackson) is right, the left coasters don't go to as many shows in the same year as the right coasters because our shows are so far away from each other.

I am in USA for November and there are no dates out for November. oh well....
And, I dont spend anytime on the west coast - I pretty much fly straight in and back out of LA! I spend my time over on the east coast ......

Not that it bothers me - I just really look forward to visitng my friends again that I miss!

I feel lucky as I have been to 3 concerts - most Australians last show was in 1987 .. unless they have been able to travel and then secure tix!

While 2 may not qualify me as a PH with some of you........

I can assure you I am!

The first was in 75 in Key West on Sunset pier and then Dallas in 2001.

Just wasn't really close enough to one between 75 & 01.

Thank God for LPs, CDs, TV and Radio Margaritaville!

Fins UP and past the salt................

I'd have to say 32 or 33. I've been doing this for 15 years and my shows are spread amongst Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Manassas, Columbia MD, Camden, VA Beach, Greensboro, Raleigh, and Pittsburgh every year since he has played there except for the summer after my second daughter was born. This year just Greensboro & Pittsburgh.

8) Got my initiation last year at the Palace in Auburn Hills but I feel as though I've been to many more between listening to either "Feeding Frenzy" and "Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays" almost daily since the summer of 2000 plus getting all the reports from the good folks here at Buffett News!! 8)
