Are the rumors true? Could we finally see a "Labor Day" show" in WI?
I hope so and penned up a theme song to help the cause.


Heading out to Alpine Valley for the Labor Day weekend show
I got my cheap hotel room booked
because East Troy never built a Ritz or 4 seasons there

And Jimmy I did not know
That I'd be missing you so

Come to Apline it'll be all right
Come to Alpine we can rock there all night
It may take half of a day on a County hwy maze
but It' will be great to be back by your side

Yes, it will be quite a summer
Tinley-Cincy and Atlanta, G.A.
Someday he'll be on permanent vacation
Something we all hope to delay

And Jimmy we love you so that's
The reason I can't let you go.
Come to Alpine It'll be all right,
Come to Alpline for at least one more night.
I've seen so many shows in a parrot head haze
And I just want you back on that stage.

We can't help it Jimmy,
You're that much a part of us now.
Remember the nights at the Woodlands when
you said there was no end in sight...

I hope you're not getting senile
I know that you are growing old now.
You can lip sync if you need to,
Us fans know all the words.
A cold spring in Chicago has worn me quite thin,
I just can't wait to see you again.

Come to Alpine It'll be all right,
Come to Alpine we need at least one more night.
We've spent forty five years enjoyin your shows
And we don't want that to come to a close....


I hope that the rumors are true. Please come to Alpine for the Labor Day show!
We can't wait to see you again this summer.

That's great. :D
I copied & pasted it to my FB wall.
(Hope you don't mind- I gave you credit. :-) )
I will do my best to find you at Chicago and/or Alpine and buy you your drink of choice.
And not just one either. ;-)

I reserved a room at a gorgeous B&B in Whitewater. It's 21 miles away but figured we can take a party bus or something from one of the other towns.

This could be a possibility , and the Cubs are home , so I can tie it into a Wrigley stop.

Make it happen. Alpine is always the best. The folks and I stayed in Lake Geneva last year and took a party bus up. Coming back there was just as wild. I know there are a handful of after parties though
