I just called to reserve rooms at a hotel in Weirton, and I booked 2 nts.... the night of the 21st was a lot less than the night of the 22nd......
(being in the travel industry), and that being a Monday in Tuesday tells me it goes up a lot because of a local event that would drive up the demand for rooms.................
smell what I'm cookin'??

I also called to reserve a room at a nearby hotel today, and was told by the hotel rep. that availability is getting low because, "Jimmy Buffett is coming to town on the 22nd".

Just did some research...July 29th is the only Tuesday show confirmed so far...all others are Monday, Thursday or Saturday - HMMMH.
Could be Monday the 21st? Long weekend would be ok - but not for me...due with a parakeet on July 19th - Sounds like I'll miss the show this year

I think that would put it too close to Alpine. Things seem to be pointing at the 22nd, I'm afraid.
What, you're going to let a little thing like childbirth get in the way?

He is playing ALPINE VALLEY MUSIC THEATER in East Troy, WI on July 19 and TOYOTA PARK in Bridgeview, IL on July 24. Those venues are about 100 miles from each other. Do you really think he would play Pittsburgh in between? Heres hoping!

That's what I don't get...why would he go from WI to PIT to IL back to back to back?

Actually, it's worse than that: Cincy 7/17 to WI 7/19 to PIT 7/22 to IL 7/24 & 7/26...that seems like a lot in a very short time - and a lot of zig-zag, too.

I liked the June speculation! In late July, I feel like I want to shower after the first song...
