I haven't, so I'm really looking forward to this one. Heard lots of great things.
Saw him last year and he was great. And he is willing to stay afterwards and take pictures with everyone that wants to.

And, by the way, for those going to the game Friday--folks at Wrigley still say they didn't have the name for Friday's 7th inning stretch :roll: :roll: :roll:

Yeah twice. First time was last year in Mokena, and the last time was this year in Linden TX, just before Jimmy played in Houston. That show in TX was cool... there probably wasn't more than about 50 people there, but 10 of 'em were BNr's! :D

I'll try my best to relay any info from any calls I get on Thursday!

I never liked it much, north of Midway, and this where this Motel is...

Probably wouldn't have thought to stay there anyways, since I always thought it was one of those 2 hour maximum places! :lol:
