Getting excited for this show. I really wasnt when I bought the tickets but now I could really use the break and of course its on my birthday. After breaking up with my girlfriend we might be going to it together again. Hoping Olympia Goes all out.

Stopped in at Bookies Bar & Grill before the Tiger game the other night. Did bring back some memories from some of the madness I saw at Bookies last year for the Buffett show.msu#1 wrote:Getting excited for this show.

Was bookies where Don middlebrook and Air margaritaville were playing? If so we went in between don and AM. It was packed and my friends didnt want to pay 10 bucks since we missed Don so we went to the comerica lot and watched a 80's band. lol that was out of place but somewhat welcomed.Dr.Corona wrote:Stopped in at Bookies Bar & Grill before the Tiger game the other night.

Middlebrook was playing the rooftop at Bookies I know. There was no fee for that. I think Air Margaritaville played outdoors where there was the charge.

Looks like neither is playing this year. No word on the comerica party yet. I see the DPHC has updated their site with some info.Dr.Corona wrote:msu#1 wrote:Was bookies where Don middlebrook and Air margaritaville were playing? If so we went in between don and AM.

Looks like Olympia is starting the margaritaville party at noon again this year. They have also posted a updated 2013 parking lot map.
Even though they own my spot "detroit cab company" its still allowed to park cars under the old owner and isnt listed but its right across woodward by the henry lot.

The lots infront of the stadium was filling up at 8am and Fox 2 was broadcasting their morning weekend news from their. The other lots were filling up a few hours later. We got to our spot and it was empty at noon but its not on the map, the olympia lot across the street was packed.
I would say most of the lots that are close were filled by 2pm.

Re: Who's Going to Detroit (Comerica Park) July 20th??
I am loving this Buffett like weather
Glad to hear it may cool down just a tad for Saturday, however. Hot and tropical is great for lounging but not so grand for a day of tailgating and then a concert IMO.
We are staying in Greektown for the weekend then meandering our way around on Saturday. Maybe we will see some folks?

I may be staying in the broom & mop closet at the Comet Bar for the weekend. That or I may set up a pup tent next to the picnic table in back. Pop in Mel if you get a chance.

I'm not a big enough baller to afford the 500 a dollar a night Greektown rooms. Gonna end up in the suburb hotels since I moved and technically am Homeless now as I look for a new place.
Had a teenage snooki smash up my truck today and I got the ticket. The cop said he knew I was in the right but he has to write it that way and that I should fight it. WTH?? Not a good week, hoping for a great weekend.

I'm at work right now, but my Buffett vacation starts in 5 hours and counting. I have a friend coming from Chicago later today, and she will be having the Buffett experience for the first time this weekend. The DPHC party is Friday night, Buffett on Saturday, and Mac McAnally on Sunday. Let the fun begin, and I am glad that the weather is going to cool down a bit for Saturday.

It's the child in us we really value
Here we are, with our fins up and our feathers flashing
Here we are, with our coconut shell brassieres chanting

Well my crew will either be the gravel lots near Hockeytown, or the the lot outside of Cheli's.
