Tweeter Help

Just joined the site, and making our first trip to Chicago to see a show. Just wondering about the whole gig there. What is near the tweeter? Anywhere to hang out before the show? We're staying at the Wingate inn. We won't have a vehicle, just wondering if we could hang out with someone at their tailgate. Would be willing to return the favor at Charlotte, if anyone is going.

Hope to meet some fellow parrotheads!

Thanks!

Night b4 the show

Aloha!

Does anyone know of any PH parties the night b4 the show? My hubby & I are bringing 2 "newbies" to the Chicago show (if we get tix :-? ) and we really want them to experience it all! We keep telling them there is nothing like a Buffett show - just have to see it all to believe it!

Me too Tiki :cry: We were looking forward to seeing the BN bunch from two and three years ago and this time bringing our daughters to their first show.Already have hotel room at the Baymont across fro Hoilday Inn.I will not give up yet and may have to just try for two for me and the wife.Keeping fins crossed.I am so mad at myself because I didn't hit any seat right away not knowing there were 3 prices.I asked for 5 126.00 seats and wait time was 15 minutes.I should have asked for anything first time. Somebody tell me it wouldn't have mattered so I'll feel better :cry:

Don't beat yourself up over that, Manatee. I started asking for best available and, of course.....shut out.
