I wonder if he was the guy standing next to me.

Repost, Sorry:
Just got back from the Mohegan Sun opening.
Set List:
Piece of Work
License to Chill
Five O'clock Somewhere
Changes
Son of a Son
Volcano
Cheeseburger
Come Monday
Brown Eyed Girl
Harbour
Pirate
Fins

Now for the even better news. Pics a plenty, I'll get those soon, but....
I just copied these off of the set list given to me by the band AND...
One of Jimmy's picks. He is using picks from his 2007 Bama Breeze Tour (may as well use them up).

Great Time.

He should come to TEXAS...then we'll notice.
Ya think??

Yep... it's the biggest charity event on the tour. How could he not be a part of that?
(Not to mention all the cool peeps he can meet there [hint, hint])

Congrats on getting a pick. I listened to it live - sounded great - but I am sure not a great as being right there! Can't wait to see the pics!

Wife needs to do the whole picture thing.
As a side, retort to one of my past posts.
People here were great!!! I got a full picture of Jimmy from head to barefoot. How did I go about it? I asked the three rows in front of me if I could walk up and take a picture. Everyone moved aside and then I moved back to my spot. It is/was unreal how great it is to see a concert with everyone there for the same reason (well except for the upper balcony that didn't sing one song the whole night).
Thank you to all those there, this was a great trip for me.
Now I hope that I can somehow get the downloads.

How did you get tix - did you win?

Yes, won them from radiomargaritaville. Made sure I thanked them at the show. Best deal was 2 in the crowd that actually got cards by asking for them. It was a great Parothead show. Even a few 'keets.

Oh sure he gets to go.

It's not like he spent the last 8 years of his life building some sort of super fantastic wonderful awesome website for us all to enjoy, certainly taking up all of his time.

Oh wait.....

Hope you had fun Jim. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy.

What do you mean by "cards" Tickets? Did they just walk up to Margaritaville Mohegan Sun and ask?

Was there a good crowd outside of Margaritaville? I imagine you could still see a bit through the glass correct?

I faxed my entry every day, went down the to put an entry in the box... Even tried radio tix at 6:00am one morning... but wasnt my lucky day!

Glad you got to check it out.

I heard there wasn't a huge crowd outside..they had to keep the walkways open between the restaurant and the gaming tables.........you could hear and see ..but they couldn't hear him talk.....as far as getting them from Margaritaville that day...i would be shocked....because of a couple of couples i saw tried and got denied.

Lady and husband said they just started asking people outside of the doors for tickets (cards) and someone had extras for one of the fan clubs from the area and gave her two.
