Maybe Buffett is a big Rush fan and would like 2 tix to their concert. All he'd have to do is set aside the 2 tix for me to his own show. I think he could get his hands on a couple of those.HULA GIRL^ wrote:Naw, I'll keep my Jimmy tix but maybe a Rush fan won 2 front row Jimmy tickets and will trade ya.

Some dates are sold out before other dates are even announced. The VA show has not been announced yet. I assume it will be eventually, but who knows?

If I knew already that he was coming here, I'd patiently wait for the on sale date, even if those were scattered. But, because he could throw us a curveball, as he did when he dropped Merriweather from the tour, I'm worried that I might not be able to see him here for any of these reasons. If I knew there could be a problem, I might consider Philadelphia or elsewhere as an alternative. But, because I don't know what's going to happen here, I don't want to buy tickets for elsewhere and then end up buying tickets here too when/if they go on sale. If he did skip here and other realistic options sell out, I'm out of luck. You see where I'm going with this. I think it would be better to announce the tour all at once, even if he scattered the on-sale dates. It's frustrating.
oh. relax at least you have those Rush tickets.
Any takers?

he'd probably arrange for Lawns at Will Call if you asked him nicely enoughFunkHouse9 wrote:Maybe Buffett is a big Rush fan and would like 2 tix to their concert.

that is too funny, HogLIPH wrote:Keep in mind if he announced the entire schedule at once, all the bitching and moaning would be confined to that short time frame. This way, we get to hear it for weeks, maybe months, at a time. Gives us all something to look forward to.
