Re: Who's Going to Great Woods !!??
Hey all,
I am constantly lurking here but figured it was time to make an appearance. I'm thinking a show annoucement has to be coming this week?
I'll take the GW shows whenever he wants to do them obviously, but I for one kinda miss the end-of-the-summer blowouts at GW. It was always something to look forward to and a great way to say goodbye to summer. It also provided for maximum tailgate prep time. I know he probably won't do a Labor Day weekend there again as long as the TPC is in Norton, but some late August shows would be nice.
Hope all is well with everybody!!!

If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
Life is short, live long!!
I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

Re: Who's Going to Great Woods !!??
I prefer a nice sunny day too. However, Jimmy - being the awesome guy that he is, always puts on a more lengthy set list without intermission if there is a storm. The Hurricane Show is still one of my all time favorites. Also, the already amazing Great Woods crowd seems to party even harder when it rains ... it is always a good time - rain or shine.tigzoe wrote:I will take any time as long as it doesn't rain.lime rickie wrote:Ditto for me, I wouldn't mind a late summer date either.MonumentBeach wrote:Hey all,

Re: Who's Going to Great Woods !!??
Absolutely, tig, any time is the right time for JB. But (for me) the mid-June Father's Day weekend is also the Harley rally in Laconia...same thing happened last year...so I'm hoping for an August date.
And I guess I'm really greedy because I also wouldn't mind a Mohegan date on the fall, too.

I couldnt agree more.. the hurricane show was amazing! JB was on fire!
PH's always seem to have plenty of tarps, awnings and ez ups and never has been an issue. If anything, it becomes the ultimate wet t-shirt blow out! ahahah!!!! (must remember never to wear white to GW ever again!!!)

Re: Who's Going to Great Woods !!??
Last year I had tix for both JB shows. In the interest of marital harmony I gave up my Saturday seat so we could head to the rally. And that was fun, too...just wish I could do both.

Re: Who's Going to Great Woods !!??
What year did we have that huge thunderstorm roll through? 2009? That was something else. Dave just kept grilling right through it and I remember hearing about Zuke standing in the middle of the street yelling "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?!!" while it was hailing.
The party does seem to get better when the weather is weird.
