If I had to take a guess I would think maybe the 2012 Calgary Stampede witch is the 100th anniversary and it is mentioned in most of the news articles that the Calgary Margaritaville is supposed to be finished and open for then.
Jimmy please play VANCOUVER again. We miss you!

I would love a Canadian leg on the tour but I would sedal for just Vancouver as we have a really great temporary outdoor stadium that is just begging for a cool concert next summer!
Vancouver is a beautiful city......we visited about 5 years ago and need to go back.

When was the last time Jimmy played in western Canada any way? :pirate:

FYI: Jimmy quit playing at Merriweather Post Pavilion ages ago so take that puppy off your list!
They ban him from ever playing there because the folks who live there don't like tailgating! Instead everyone goes to the Labor Day Weekend shows in Va.

I think the last time he played in Vancouver was some where between 1992 and 1994 but I could be wrong. But I do think the new temporary Empire Stadium Field would make a great out door venue for him to play.

Same as him coming to SoCal in October. Oct can be very chilly or rainy and cool evenings. Sept would be much better

Guessing about next year's tour schedule is one of the things that gets me through the winter........ :o :roll: :pirate:

Now that the holidays are rapidly approaching, I was thnking about the show that JB did as Freddie & the Fishsticks a few years ago in a little club in Colorado in December, I think......I wonder if he'll ever do something like that again?

Haven't heard too much about the Fishsticks here of late...... [smilie=hello.gif]

Yeah, I was at his last show at Merriweather concert. The police were a whole lot of fun. I still managed to have a good time though.

The last time Jimmy played in Western Canada was October 1992. Would of been my first one, however I gave up my ticket because I was offered free World Series tickets for a game in Toronto. The Blue Jays lost, it rained for 4 days, the Maple Leafs were out of town and my date was biiiitchy.

Never give up your Buffett tickets.

I'll add that one should never EVER give up a Buffett event for a weekend work commitment. I passed on Newport RI 2 years ago - it poured during the work event, no one showed up and my friends were in the front row in the SUNSHINE trading jokes with Jimmy. NEVER AGAIN!

For those of us who are huge sports fans, this would be a tough decision. It's a simple situation of when our passions happen to collide. Back in 1999, I bought some tickets to see Buffett in New Orleans. It was the same week of the SEC Championship football game, and my Alabama Crimson Tide was not playing well at the time tickets went on sale. I bought tickets to Buffett, and then Bama got on a role and made it to the championship game. It was hard to do, but I gave my Buffett tickets to one of my dad's customers and went to see Bama play: Bama won, I had great seats, and it was one of the best atmospheres I've ever seen at a football game! It was our first SEC Championship in 7 years, and it turned out to be our last for 10 years.

Jimmy, I wish you had played New Orleans on a different night. But, on that particular night, I'm glad I didn't see you.

OK, other than the rumored Jones Beach venue......where else will Jimmy play in 2011? :o

Think he'll keep Bristow, VA (I refuse to call it "Jiffy Lube Live" again, what a stupid name.....) as the "Labor Day Weekend Show"?

Since Bristow was my favorite set list, I sure hope so.
