I'm frustrated because Jimmy didn't consult my fixed work schedule when he set the dates for Detroit and Paris. :roll:

How could you, Jimmy dear?

Still, maybe something else wonderful will trickle out later.... maybe an opening concert at the Niagara Falls Margaritaville?

Anyone heard news of Charlotte or Raleigh stops this year? I need that "somewhere warm" feeling that you can only get at a concert after a tailgate!

There are 14 of us in the Thomasville area, carrying our tailgating stuff with us waiting to go. But where? The deck with Sirius 31 is phun, just not the same!

I would have to say it isn't looking good :( I guess it will be Manassas for us, which at least hopefully means a Mac show as well. The only bad thing is that a lot of people who would go to a local show are not able to make the 7 hour trek to Jiffy Lube Live

Tailgating is a LOT easier! Meeting up with other PH Phriends from across the state is DEFINITLY easier! 5 hours to Atlanta is do-able, but not so easily done.

I'm doing Ft. Lauderdale, Cinci, Houston(maybe) and Dallas and then finally Great Woods...

What about Columbia, SC ? It's soon but could be fun...

Welcome to Buffett News. Often, there are brand new members who come online, post something negative and then we never hear from them again.

While your original post (to me) did seem to be just good-natured banter, others may be sensitive to it.

But man... I'm with YOU! I was so excited while I was waiting for dates to be announced.

I hope you stick around.

Sounds like a great time. Will have to see if we're off work and see if the gang wants to flock. Will get back to you on this! Hum, 2 concerts in 3 days! Reminds me of year we drove to Atlanta on Thursday, our niece's graduation on Friday and Raleigh for another concert in 102 degree weather on Saturday! :D It was a BLAST!

Well, Bristow is sold out, so it looks like about 20 of us will be phlocking to a nearby deck, grilling, playing tailgating games and listening to JB via Sirius 31. Its ok but not the same as being there. We even considered purchasing premier parking passes and just tailgating and listening. Places are just too far away to do that :( , so we will tailgate and have phun at home, unless Jimmy decides at the last minute to come to NC. Who knows, our phlocking may grow!
