MID and I weren't able to get tickets today...we'll have to try some alternative methods to get in to the show. You know how good MID is at winning contests! We will definitely be hosting a pre-show low dough party for anyone who can't afford the trip to Margaritaville or out to the clubs. We'll have MID singing, some of the worlds greatest Margarita and beer! We've got a couple of open beds still not spoken for, as long as you can handle Evan's 7am wake up call.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the party or at the tailgate!

Hey Les - is this for Friday night? If so, can I make a "refundable" reservation? I will have been a FL resident (again) for about 3 weeks by then and it will all depend if I am lucky enough to have found a job by then and a babysitter for Miss Morgan.

Thinking that the Southwest flight leaving at 1:40pm on Apr 24th, non-stop to Tampa is a no-brainer? Just $96!!

Just booked that one for us!

Are you going to fly in from raleigh? I am so excited about my tickets I am rethinking skipping raleigh if I fly up and back.

Most likely. I'm flying from NY to Dallas for the Frisco show then driving to Charlotte and on to Raleigh with Garry. I'll fly from Raleigh to Tampa, then back to NY.

Driving from texas to north carolina?!

Texas to NC is not that bad....It can be quite the road trip...especially if you have a great traveling buddy!

i'm just glad that both houston and tampa are southwest airline cities!

Tiki do we need more stools?

Can't wait too see you, I mean drink with, guys!

If things go according to plan, we'll have the goodies with us. More tiki stools are always a good idea! Last time we tried working a deal with the venue to have a dump truck full of sand brought in so we could do a beach volleyball court, but we couldn't bring it to fruition (it became clear that it would be "work" ... and we weren't in for "work" that weekend). The venue facilities mgr was open to the idea. We were also trying to work a deal with a local spa manufacturer to have them bring one or two over, but we were sure that we couldn't provide enough power.

Didn't quite read back past this page but is the plan to be in the same area as before?

Sorry I couldn't make your SB tailgate last weekend but thanks for the invite

Super Bowl tailgating was awesome, Friday-Sunday... good times. In with 3 tiki bars for sale, all gone! Here's a photo or two:

You sure can Phaw.....we are going to ship the kids across the street to their godmother's house, so we'll have plenty of room.

WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

AND...... we are going to be in Florida alllllllllll week!!!! I'm sooo excited!!
we are flying in sunday after Frisco, and staying until the next sun.....thinking on hitting Miami, then Key West for a few days, before we head to Tampa.....

yippy skippy!!!!

That would be a perfect way to waste away for a week (beats staying in Tampa) unless you're over at St. Pete/Clearwater Beach. If you take the JB Tiki route figure on about 7 hours from Miami to KW (3+ for a straight run).

FYI As of 11:25 am Ticketmaster has seats available (NO LAWN) also Live nation via telephone has seats available in sec 10 (NO LAWN)

I will be in Tampa for my first Jimmy concert; I have always been a total diehard fan of jimmy but never been able to get tickets until now! I bit the bullet spent the money and I’m so excited. I bought the tickets for my wife and I's 12th anniversary of being together, 2 of those years being married; we're still so in love. We live and love Key West, Parrot head, Jimmy lifestyle; and all that goes with it.

I would love to get a huge group together and tailgate in Tampa to get the full jimmy concert experience we've been waiting for. Like I said this is our first jimmy concert together and I want it to be the best!!LET’S SET SOMETHING UP AND GET THIS PARTY STARTED AND ENJOY A LITTLE ESCAPISM…

Ps-she doesn’t know that we’re going yet, can’t wait to see her face when I tell her …
