Alpine Valley

Post by live4dving »

To settle a bet between me and my wife: In recent years (say the last 5-10) has Jimmy ever NOT played a concert at that venue? I can't remember not going and I've only missed one year when I was out of the US, abroad. She claims he has skipped and may be skipping this year. I can't find anything via Google so I thought I would try here. Thanks.

In 2005 when he played Wrigley Field he skipped Alpine. I don't know about any other years.

Jimmy first played Alpine Valley in 1988 then skipped 1989 returning in 1990, he then skipped the venue for 5 years not returning until 1995. From 1995-2004 he played then venue annually but skipped it 2005 because of the two shows at Wrigley Field. He resumed his annual shows at Alpine in 2006 and has not missed a year.

If you wondering about a 2013 show the heavily rumored date is August 24th
