I saw a story on Headline News this morning about Jimmy possibly playing Wrigley Field Labor Day weekend while the Cubs are away. I think the powers that be in Chicago still have to approve it first.

The story was talking about how Jimmy playing at Fenway lifting the Curse of the Bambino maybe he can do the same for the Cubbies

Jimmy WILL be playing at Wrglet Field. On Sept 2nd, and the 4th. Fri and Sun. There will be 30,000 tickets sold. 3000 will be given away to area groups. There was no mention of any shows at Alpine Valley, or Tweeter in Chgo. This may be the only chance to see JB in the Chgo area.

Jimmy would never skip Alpine. 50,000 people is a guaranteed mega payday for Jimmy. He will not skip it and I bet it is around the middle of June this year. I bet he is going to do more shows. Florida tour in February. West coast in April. Midwest in May and early June. East coast in late summer with the exception of Wrigley in September.

Tiki needs her costume out again and she needs to park next to me also.
ROAD TRIP. He better anounce the dates soon as I am supposed to go fishing to Canada July 5th through the 11th. It had better not be Alpine Weekend.

I know a lot of PH's are concerned about being unable to tailgate @ Wrigley...as a local Chicagoan, and a regular at Wrigley & Wrigleyville, it is a great place to party. Even if tailgating isn't possible :P
