site
n.
1. The place where a structure or group of structures was, is, or is to be located: a good site for the school.
2. The place or setting of something: a historic site; a job site.
3. A website.
RightO!!! I wish I was able to see Jimmy at some big stadium. Its Jimmy Buffett!! Ya know its gonna be a great time!!!SchoolGirlHeart wrote:Exactly! For a concert, GW wins over Fenway, hands down. But for an overall one-time event, it was AWESOME to see "Fins" happening in Fenway Park. And besides that, I'd never before been able to stand in center field at Fenway.CTParrothead763 wrote:I agree. I was part of the crowd that was really putting down Fenway last year. Ended up going and really have a great time, mostly because we made it that way. Yes the acoustics were bad and the tailgating was non-existent, but it was awesome seeing him playing next to the green monster. Sitting in the grandstand seats and seeing thousands of people down on the field all doing fins was worth the price alone.SchoolGirlHeart wrote:I'm having a serious case of deja vu here.....
Almost the exact same things were said about Great Woods/Fenway. Fenway wasn't Great Woods, and IMHO baseball stadiums generally s*** for concerts unless you're in the front section on the field, but it was fun because it was historic.
Wrigley will not be Alpine. But it can be fun if you make it fun.
If I have a chance to go to Wrigley, I'll go!! Hell, Parrotheads can make a party out of anything! It won't be Alpine, but it'll still be a blast.
It beats the hell outta sittin home and missing the show. Unfortunately I have to keep my fingures crossed for Raleigh b/c im a poor student who doesn't have the funds to travel that far. Its not looking good for Raleigh so far though. The RBC center doesnt hold as many people as those big stadiums. Oh well, I still have high hopes. Maybe he'll visit us here in NC one more time.. You can add 2005 to that list. I still have faith.sox wrote:Here are all the times Jimmy has rocked out at Alpine...

Answer: 2005!!!!!!!!
JIMMY BUFFETT DOES NOT SET THE TICKET PRICES!!!Quiet and Shy wrote:On the flipside, ticket prices aren't decreasing by any means...for Indy lawn is the same as last year but pavilion is up 25%...I guess he wan't a bigger piece of the fair market price (vs. enriching the scalpers) but that catches all of the initial ticket buyers.
Maybe not directly, but he can influence prices by deciding how much to ask for a performance.iuparrothead wrote: JIMMY BUFFETT DOES NOT SET THE TICKET PRICES!!!
Yup, I understand that completely. I'm implicitly assuming that he's at least partially behind the price increases this year (e.g. asking for more $$s).iuparrothead wrote:JIMMY BUFFETT DOES NOT SET THE TICKET PRICES!!!Quiet and Shy wrote:On the flipside, ticket prices aren't decreasing by any means...for Indy lawn is the same as last year but pavilion is up 25%...I guess he wan't a bigger piece of the fair market price (vs. enriching the scalpers) but that catches all of the initial ticket buyers.
I thought I was the only one who was of that opinion. Its kinda weird. I am afraid we are going to have to talk some people off buildings.Buffett did not start playing Alpine regularly until 1995. There are a lot of other sites that have more reason to assume that Jimmy should play there before Alpine.
