Only 1 show in Chgo?

Post by moeron »

Is Jimmy slowing down? It seems to me that He usally plays 2 show at tinley park. Right now there is only 1 show listed at "midwest bank center" or whatever the name is. Or will they offer a 2nd show at a later date. Compared to most I am still a keet. So you know more than me. I'm just wondering. Smaybe Jimmy is fed up with the lot security at tinley park too.

You're right. Last year I was so p*** about getting shut out for AV that I didn't much listen to RM. I had a party in my back yard. It was cold we partied in the house. Tinley park passed by and I didn't know it.

Don't worry, the sound system there still sucks. Been going to shows there since it opened in 89 or 90 I believe and its one of my top 2 worst sound systems next to the "new" chicago stadium

"New Chicago Stadium" The only thing new about it is the "new" which means higher prices. Please don't get me started talking about bill wirtz. I guess thats why I will get tickets for AV and not tinley park. It's worth the drive just not getting hasseled by "rentacop"

I've never been hassled. He stopped doing 2 shows since Wrigley. I believe there were 2 Tinley shows prior to that year each year.
The Parrot Dice Lounge kinda like a mirage. Here today and gone tomorrow. You should stop by and say hello when visiting Chicago on tour.

Sad to say I hate the owners of AV as much as Dollar Bill ( Hence why I have been a Redwings fan for over 15 years now, and it breaks my grandfathers heart because he used to have season tickets for the hawks for many years.)

Last time I heard, Clear Channel actually OWNS AV.

It would be nice to see 2 shows in Chicago...
However, I don't think it's going to happen. Especially when the Saturday show is announced first. My question is what is he going to do for the week between shows?

Also, Clear Channel owns most major concert venues... which is why along with ticketbastard that they pretty much can do whatever they want.
