Oh what the hell, I gotta figure out something really good for dinner tonight so I can convince my lovely wife that we should go. I promised her we would only go see Jimmy in small venues from now on like NOLA in this past May. Maybe some nice ribeyes on the grille tonight?
Forget the ribeye, go with jewelry :wink:
I must be a cheap date...or an easy one. I don't need either to be persuaded to go! :wink:

Paris

Post by phins7209 »

Went last year...Got Tickets again. Great concert, remember to have a large memory card in your camera; you'll want it. Also imbibe before you attend the concert. The alcohol selections at the venue are very limited and just don't taste very good. Maybe Jimmy will import some Landshark this year ?????? There is a good small bar across from the venue or I think there is a Best Western down the street.

See you in Paris !!!!!!!!

According to ticketnet.fr, there are only 14 tickets remaining (as of 6/12 @ 9:00 AM PST). Get them while they last.... rumor is that there may be a second show the following night, not sure how much faith I have in this rumor.

Only 8 seats left as of 3 pm.

It shows that he is there from 9/19 through 9/20 so guessing there will be 2 shows.

We decided to take the train from home to London, & Eurostar to Paris. Cheaper than flying or driving. I have not been on a train for many, many years, so should be fun :wink:

Man, I love Jimmy but I could never imagine (or justify) spending that kind of money to only be in the country maybe 36-48 hours (depending on your flight times). Now if I was independently wealthy....maybe. More power to ya if you can pull this off. :)
thats what it costs us everytime, this was so good last year the venue is really small. now I don't know whether to spend all the money to come to vegas on the 18th as well. I wish he would release all the dates so you could plan it better
