The link on the Tour Dates page at margaritaville.com takes you to Live Nation, but the show isn't listed there. Same thing for the Jones Beach show. Neither one is on ticketmaster either.

yes, I saw that Alpine is not listed on either of these sites too....they're probably still figuring out all the extra excessive fees they can add to the ticket prices yet before next Monday.

We got 10 rooms and Kathy sounds really cool on the phone. Do you party friday night? We always come up the night before and live it up as well.
I have in the past come on Friday, but this year we are only able to do Saturday Night. I do get there by 10am to catch up with old friends & make new ones. On Sunday we all try to invade Watertown's restaurants for breakfast!!!! Cant wait!! Keep in touch and will meet Saturday morning!!
We will have to get the names of some good eating places. I usually can and need to eat both sat and sunday. Helps settle the stomach so to speak. Brought my frozen concoction maker last year and it got the best of me after about 7-9 pitchers

Hmmmm..... I am guessing it will be 10 CENTRAL time, but you never know..... It was probably a typo or an assumption from those eastcoasters... But I am prety sure it will be 10:00 central time, since that is the time zone of where the concert actually is.... better to be early than late though

I agree.. 10am CST would make more sense, and that is when most shows go on sale..

still nothing up on ticket master to confirm.
**grumble**
We were trying to reserve a party deck, but its $180 per person, for 50 people. We couldn't rustle up 50 people who wanted to pay that much.
It comes with your own personal Port-o-john though. That's totally worth the $$ to me!

TM also has tickets for sale:

Last year both vendors were selling tickets. At LN you could get reserved seats for days after the sale start date.

As I cannot do this at work, I'll just have to take my chances when I get home

(Hopefully there's SOMETHING left... last year LN had tons of tickets but TM was sold out...)

much appreciated!!!
