That date makes sense , that may also free up more tickets for GW , if people are to go to ME and not GW.
Or go to both!
Or neither. :lol:

I want to know when he is finally going to release the date. Having tickets for both NE going on sale at the same time is going to be nuts.

Or it doesn't matter and I may be going to back to back concerts.

Does that mean jb is going to play Fenway? I'm confused?
No.....it would be someone else playing Fenway the weekend of the 20th.

How difficult is it to get tickets for GW? I probably won't know until May if I can go (assuming the show is still in June).

Lawns are gone the first day. But a bunch of us manage to find good singles late all the time. And outer pavillion is always available, too, by show time those are lawn price or less.

There is always holding out for the price reduction on the open air pavilions . which will happen if they don't reduce the price on the on sale date.

Which works if you only need a single seat. Not so much for Kevin & I since we like to sit together 8)

Tommy is right, you can easily pick up an outer pavillion pair a week or two before the show.

So, Debbie Grisham emailed me this morning for something non tour related and asked me if I was going to Bangor. I said yes and I let her know that I am anxiously awaiting a GW date. Haha....I haven't heard back yet.

Not that it was ever a concern but Saturday, July 16th is no longer an option. Hall and Oats at Great Woods that night.
