Tickets will be pretty hard to get, and I hate settling for club seats that are in the blocked view area.

Good point and I'd be on the road on my way down too at 10AM. ick
Just for sh!ts & giggles, I looked up in my old emails when we purchased our tickets last year for G.W......March 12th!!! Dave said...you can bet on it..just because it's the sat. of the convention!!

My prediction...and I hope I'm wrong, no G.W. just Mohegan.
I say this because 1.) I thought I heard that the Mohegan thing was a 5 year deal and I believe he's only played there four. 2.) add to the fact that there are all kinds of different things going on...G.W.'s didn't sell out 2 years ago..maybe he's trying to stir the pot a bit.

Last year was such a weird year though with that stage dive and all, usually it's earlier than that.
Pam, no, not really. I know this because way back when, before the internet really came into play, tickets would go on sale in March. Dave and I would be on vaca in Fla. at his parents house every March. We would be calling all kinds of Ticketmaster numbers to try and get tickets. Even when the internet came about, we would go to the library in Punta Gorda and log on there to purchase tickets. So it's really not out of the norm.

The years at Mohegan were okay, not as much craziness as GW. Plus, they were more strict on items you could bring into the tailgate. The ticket prices were higher there also. I heard that our club seats in '09, the last year he played there, were the farthest sections away from the stage...so sucky. Prior to, they were on the direct side of the stage and behind the stage. I didn't mind that so much because we were close. However, being in that configuration, the sound for us SUCKED for the clubs!

Let's us pray for GW! Perhaps it will be an early August date this year. I know he hasn't played much in July, and never a GW show.

Ditto..... An indoor show in the summer would be a letdown.
