His first question to Mr. Lufrano was "How do I go about obtaining the tequila concession for the event!?"
I'd also think he may have been deliberately playing down any potential rowdiness to try to ensure a "yes" vote. Kinda like, "Hey, look at me... I'm old. I'm a parrothead. Do we look that dangerous?"

Wrigley sounds cool, but what about tailgating before the concert?
I'd say almost a definate yes; back to Tweeter in 2006. I'm sure we can get creative for the pre-game/concert at Wrigley. I'm just glad to see Jimmy will be trying to help out the Cubs this year as they need all the help they can get. We all know Jimmy has a magic touch, but if he can do for the Cubs what he did for the Red Sox ...wow. (I can dream, can't I? Ah, the eternal hope of a Cubs fan...)

Cubs fans should worrly less about curses/hexes and any magic Jimmy might do and more about the team they put on the field
So, now that the dates are posted does anyone have any idea how much the tickets may go for and how the set up will be? I have never been to wrigley field and do not know if there will be any bad seats or areas to avoid, any help or input would be great

sorry cub fans i think this wrigley field idea is just a bad idea, ive noticed some web sites are already selling tickets to this show in th e 150 to 400 dollar range. Not to mention all of the other problems already discussed.
