Keep those great stories coming, pholks!
Thanks for the YouTube link... JB hardly needed to sing along with the crowd at all... but wasn't it great that you could hear Robert on the pans over everything!

We may have waited a long long time for last nights show - but boy was it worth it!!
Great to see all you guys, hope you are feeling a little less stiff today. I for one slept like a log.
That sure was one great venue - who would have thought we had so many parrotheads in England
Roll on September and see you all again in Paris !!

Well,
what a show that was!
I was shocked but delighted to see the Empire quite as heaving as it was, and Jimmy and the band seemed bowled over by it too, they appeared to be enjoying it as much as we were - which was a lot!
Didn't catch up with many familiar faces - so many more people than the New Morning - but good to meet Brenda and husband in O'Niells after the show. Remember Bucs eat Dolphins!
Roll on next year, the man himself said he will be back, we'll hold you to it Jimmy

He even advised the audience to "keep up with all the latest happenings on BuffettNews.com".
Oh, and it was filmed, so let the speculation begin about whether there's going to be a DVD... it would be a good one!

Great to see you all too! Sorry to hear about the tube problems, hope your journey north was a little easier.....
T-shirt has been in the wash - better but more washes needed
Looking forward to Paris already - now what to wear

Orlando sold out a few weeks back, all that was available last time we looked were $400 tix. Dont think so![/quote]
I was told this by an Orlando native[/quote]
Looked at ticketmaster, not yet on sale, which is good. Was he Seminole as a Seminole told me that their slot machines paid out well![/quote]
have registered with Ticketmaster but I looked on the Amway Arena website and that said only 8 tickets were left at over $400 each, so I am worried that I've missed it or other sites have been selling tickets before they are released.
Could anyone advise?

If you join the 'who's going to Orlando' thread on here, I am sure there will be early notification of when the tickets are going on sale. The Tour Dates tab is still showing TBA so not sure what the Amway Website is reporting.
This site always seems to have the info well in advance so I would always go with what is reported here.
Sorry we missed you on sunday evening - I guess there were more people than any of us expected.

We were up on the shelf
looking down on you all having a damned good time!! But then again, us on the first shelf were also having a damned good time!
Wandered over to the right hand corner, which had the BEST view of the stage and everyone in the audience.
