Who's going to Cincinnati 8/2/2012?

[citcat]

Well, sorry to tell y'all that I won't be able to come this year. I actually had thought about making the trek b/c I met soooo many groovy people there last year, but there's no vacation time availble.

So me, my pink Converse All Stars and my KY jelly beads will miss you so badly.

Dadgummit. I was really looking forward to that sledgehammer thing. Guess I'll have to amuse myself some other way. You and your pink shoes and KY beads will be missed.

I expect drunk dials/texts updating me regarding your progess

Of course !

From the band Lunar Beach House.

Just confirmed!! Jimmy Buffett is heading to Cincy!! We are performing for the Cincinnati Parrot Head's pre concert party on the river. It's August 1st, 10-1, in Newport, Ky. at JB Fins/The Beer Sellar on the river !! The Parrot Heads are planning to be there, go to a Reds game at 7 and be back for the party!!! And it's open to the public !!!

count me and my group in. we always go to the reds game on buffett eve (if they are in town) and end up at jb fins after the game.

This is the first year that I'm planning on bringing my RV to the tailgating extravaganza that is Cincinnati. Do any of you bring an RV there or know of someone who does? What is a good time to get to the big grass field across from RiverDowns? Any advice on this would be appreciated! Thanks!

[citcat]

The BIG grass field has a lot of room for cars/rv's, so you can get there in the morning anytime. It's lot # 2 ( I think that's the one you're talking about)..... there are other lots.

I tried to post a picture of the lots from the air, but it says, "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached." What's that mean ???????

Thanks for the info. I think it's field #2 as well. I've been to Cincy 8 times and we always get a hotel but we're bringing the RV this time around. Going to try to get there by 9 or so. Can't wait!!!! I hope they don't chase us off afterwards. I heard from the people there last year that they let them stay.

if they chase ya off after the concert you can always go park it in the Walmart parking lot. They allow it if you park on the outer edge of their parking lot.
Closest one would be exit 63B heading north from riverbend on I-275.

Mayhaps I should've said "anti-smoke" masks.

Excited to say: THIS MANY DAYS LEFT !!!

[melon59]

I am SOOOO burned out and counting the days till Cincy! Can't wait to lounge at the lagoon with all my phriends! Maragrita Jello Shots anyone???

[citcat]

Only a little over a month away !!!! WOW !!!

So, who's going to the pre-party ? We are....I imagine we'll get to the 'barge' at about suppertime Wednesday night, maybe earlier. We aren't going to the ball game, however.

[melon59]

WENT SHOPPING FOR ALL MY PH PARTY SUPPLIES AND I AM SOOOO PHREAKING EXCITED!!!!!

[BigR-KyParrothead]

I find it somewhat upsetting this thread is only 3 pages long. What happened to the good ol' days of nearly 100 pages?

[jbfinscj]

I know, we have the same problem over in the Bristow, Va labor day show thread

[citcat]

It's too hot to type.

If it's in the 100's on concert day, they'll be scooping us up with big spatulas.
