I'll try to be at the show.
I'll attend a party.
Heck, I'll even cook the jambalaya.
But I will not have time to be the guy in charge...I can already tell you that.
Sorry! But I do hope we have a great party again...

Re: ALPINE VALLEY
Found the date under the Tour Date Rumors thread.. page 43 I believe. 'Wildcat' posted some dates, has been expanding on them over the last couple days. Dates make a little sense.. Cincy, Indy, Chicago, and Alpine in the same stretch..

Re: ALPINE VALLEY
I'm hoping for the 18th too....but all the rumor threads keep pointing to the 25th
so made the hotel reservations in Lake Geneva for both weekends just in case.

Re: ALPINE VALLEY
I think I'm going to need a reservation this time around... don't want to have to drive all the way back to Chicago that late at night again

Besides I can use the Water Park
Whens about the "latest" I can get the reservation?

Re: ALPINE VALLEY
What is the best camping venue near Alpine? Our group was considering camping this year, and I know I have heard others mention some good spots. Now that there is an official Detroit date with tickets going on sale in 1 week, I imagine that there will be quite a few dates announced soon!

Juth 28 is a Tuesday.
The city of East Troy has an ordinance that only allows concerts on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Since Jimmy seems to be sticking to his Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday format, a Saturday would be the only day he could play Alpine.

Re: ALPINE VALLEY
Don't worry Gumbo!! I should be a pretty cheap date this year. I'll be lucky if I am able to drink a 6 pack.
Pack Away!! My vote is for the 18th
