just checked the woodlands website. apparently preferred parking is sold out, so i have no clue what i'm going to do about tailgating.
last year i just rolled up and got in line at 9:00 or so, and just paid them on site.

i heard you had to pre-purchase a ticket from the pavilion this year, and apparently i missed that.

still planning on coming, but if i dont have a spot, no reason for me to bring my grill.

sounds like i'll carry arround my rolling cooler and just hop from spot to spot as i converse with everyone out there. 8)

Yes, when I bought Nancy's parking place there was only 10 spaces left.

I agree Mark. I like that song but am getting tired of hearing it as an encore all of the time. However, if he gives us a set list like last nights I guess I shouldn't complain however I woulodn't mind Nautical Wheelers...Just sayin :wink:

I will really "lose it" IF he plays "Sending the Old Man Home."

I never mind Lovely Cruise, as much as Glory Days...but I honestly am so glad to be at a show that whatever Jimmy chooses for the whole show is "icing on the cake"

I guess Carol and I need to start getting our act together for this show. :lol: :lol: :lol:

If it is anything like the Tampa show, it will be amazing. Migration, Hello Texas, Who's the Blonde Stranger.... I will take one or all of them.
I must be wishing on someone else's star....

I still long for a solo acoustic That's What Living Is To Me...but since Jimmy is playing the songs from VOLCANO, I'm putting in my vote for Sending The Old Man Home.

BTW, 50 years ago today, my mom died in 1961, so I did a special memory "thing" for my 86-year-old daddy and he was so moved by it all. Thanks be to God and the special people he puts in our lives. I certainly include Jimmy in that "special people" list.

this was amazing live. so unexpected and all of the references to the Gulf oil spill.
Also, on that note, prayers to the families of the victims. One year ago tomorrow.
