We are making the trip from STL even if it is an indoors show. What is the tailgating situation around the Sprint Center? It looks like two in row for us...KC 4/30 and STL 5/3. :D :D :D :pirate:

We've got 6. Hopefully there is a presale, so we can get lower level.

To the poster above, there is an area right across the street called Power & Light. Essentially, it's a place with a bunch of restaurants with overpriced beer. If the weather is nice, there is an outside beer garden that should be rocking.

Been waiting a long time for this.

I don't think the soccer stadium is going to ready by that point, and Verizon in its current configuration couldn't host him. Has to be Sprint Center by process of elimination.

Unless it's Kaufman Stadium or Arrowhead, which I doubt.

Who knows? Arrowhead Stadium is back in the concert business again. Kenny and Zac are playing there July 30th. I would rather see it at Arrowhead. There is a huge parking lot for the tailgate party. And yes, Arrowhead is no stranger to tailgate parties... Taylor Swift is also playing there Sept. 24th.

Apparently, the Parrot Head Club was told Sprint Center.

Definitely looking forward to Chesney in Arrowhead this summer.

Some of the Parrothead People are worried now. The Sprint Center has an Arena League Football Game scheduled for April 30th.... SO something is up... My friend the Under Sherriff told me in his talks with some of the powers that be, that they have to get the Football Team willing to move their home game to one of the smaller venues or play on Friday night. Also the Sprint Management is Keeping a tight lid on this. SO Hopefully things will fall in place..

I just checked the KC Command (AFL team) website and found this entry:

Fri, Apr 29 Dallas Vigilantes
8:00 PM Details

It looks like the stars over KC are aligning for the JB concert afterall.

Correction...the information regarding the schedule came off of the Arena Football League website. The KC team website still shows the game on the 30th.

Booked a room at the Hilton President..... Waiting on ticket pre-sale info! Would prefer outdoors but a day at the P&L pre-concert should be fun!

Couldn't believe this post.... and it's a Saturday Night.... Still trying to adjust to the thought of going to see Jimmy without a plane ticket or 6 hour drive [smilie=battingeyes.gif] We'll be there [smilie=happydance.gif]
