me neither!

I still have hope!
I still plan to live in the same place near Alpine at the end of July, also....

Just when I think the rollercoaster has no more loops left in it....
I'll admit-I won't make other plans for that weekend yet either

OK, I am prepared for the skeptics, though I have hesitated to post this earlier as I know I am a newbie, and I can't divulge my source, which I know will make many question this, but rather than question this post, take my warning and take it for what it's worth.

A VERY reliable source tells me 7/30 is still on. They were waiting till after Wrigley sold out, which, as we all know it did, to finalize plans.

Again, nothing confirmed, but for what it's worth I am planning for the day.

It's perfectly fine for you to post that... but come on now? "A very reliable source"??? Where have we heard that before?

I'm not giving you a hard time, but really... no chance...

Oh, what's a parrothead to think these days!!!!!!!

While it is true, that the ticket selling strategy you describe is valid, and has been used to help move tickets in Chicago in the past, how long did it take to sell out Wrigley on both dates????? Somewhere between 20 and 45 minutes.

Likewise, you would also notice a meaningful gap between DMB (July 23/24) and Ozzfest (August 6) on Alpine's schedule.....so your theory still holds.

However, while this isn't rock-solid logic, one of Jimmy's Coral Reefers, Peter Mayer, is already booked that night.....Gen Stanton Inn Music Fest
Charlestown, RI....check out http://www.petermayer.com/ Not to say Jimmy wouldn't fly without him, but I doubt it.

Glad to still see the optimism! Let's discuss it again on July 31st.

Lets remember that Security Brian from Alpine gave us a formal statement. It doesn't mean that anything is 100%-it's fun to be a dreamer

Looks like Jimmy's flying solo at Alpine July 30th.
Can your VERY reliable source confirm this for us, Gaylord?

OneParticualrHarbour · Post by **OneParticualrHarbour** » April 29, 2005 9:52 am

our club is looking into possibly booking mac or peter mayer for the 3oth of july. macs booking people emailed me that he has the 30th open. and peter mayer is booked elsewhere. we will be discussing tonight if we want to try to book mac.

also the parrohead club out there ( sorry i forgot which one ) is trying to put togethter a alpine gig of some kind, since "elvis of the carribean" wont be coming out there.

also, our club leader rob called alping valley a few weeks ago and they said no alpine valley this year.

( diddnt have time to read this whole thread, so if i posted anything allready known youll have to put up with it. sorry )

Here's the problem...my 'Very Reliable Source' can beat up your 'Very Reliable Source'!!!!!!!!!

We have it directly from the security director at Alpine Valley, who happens to be a member here. No Jimmy.

Please tell me that July 30 is back on, that is the day of my high school class reunion and Alpine is such a good reason not to go and relive those "wonderful" high school days.
