Alpine really needs Jimmy![]()
Anyone got some positive ideas on what 35,000+ of us could do with that extra two hours of our lives?
It equals about 8 years for one person....so if I add up all of the shows I've been to at Alpine I guess it really does have a life of its own!

You’re still grinning, we’re still winning, nothing left to say
I’m still gliding as I go flying down this endless wave

I was looking at Alpine's site to see if they listed Coldplay yet and I noticed that there are people arguing whether or not Jimmy is still coming there. There are actually 3 different threads!

OK Tiki-more details. Is this typically a drunken bash with no where to park and tons of cops or a mild-mannered, fun-loving family event complete with a ferris wheel?Tiki Bar wrote:Everyone can invade Antioch, IL on Fri 7/29... the Beach Bum Band is playing the Streetfest band shell!pooj wrote:Anyone got some positive ideas on what 35,000+ of us could do with that extra two hours of our lives?

Parking can be a bit tricky, but the town is small enough that you can park and walk, and it'll only take a couple minutes...
I don't recall a ferris wheel, but it is family oriented... and there is a beer tent and food vendors and bingo (I think) and such... but unless I'm mistaken, you can pack your own picnic and cooler too!

Pretty pathetic to say the least.7lords wrote:Alpine is now down to 3 acts for the entire Summer. Looking like the end of Alpine Valley is near
Hopefully this is a "rebuilding" year and Jimmy will be back to kick things off in early June!
