Kenny tour dates for 06 will be announced around the 2 or 3rd week of January. reported earlier this year that they will be all Stadium shows. So everyone will know where Jimmy wont be playing on certain dates soon.

I know, but it was originally built back in 1923 I believe, thus making it the 3rd oldest ballpark still active behind Wrigley and Fenway. Most of the remodeling in the 70's (and correct me if I'm wrong) trasnformed it into a baseball-only stadium (remeber the NY Football Giants used to play there). The black seats were created (so hitters could see the ball) and Death Valley was shrunk to its current dimesions of 314-->399-->408.
Fenway and Wrigley are not the original structures they were when they were originally built. They have gone under renovations, albiet not as extensive, but they aren't the original structures.

I would rather have it at Jones Beach anyway, but it would definitely be cool to see Sir Paul, Bubba, and Dave Matthews.
