Re: Great Woods 2017
This is probably a complete coincidence(or maybe the owners of this joint know more than we do) but there's a Buffett Beach Blast party on Friday, July 28th in Salisbury, MA. Granted, that's about an hour and a half from Mansfield area but you never know...

Re: Great Woods 2017
Lady Gaga added a 2nd show for Fenway on Saturday, Sept. 2nd so no Labor Day Weekend show for Buffett at Fenway.

Re: Great Woods 2017
I'm guessing since June 8th was announced for Houston , that June 10th is probably out for GW. That pretty much leaves Aug 19th at GW or Aug 12th at Fenway. I doubt he would do Aug 26th against Chesney. But stranger things have happened.

Re: Great Woods 2017
Frisco has pretty much been confirmed but not confirmed for June 10th for the past week or two. And now that Houston is 6/8, that makes even more sense.TommyBahama wrote:I'm guessing since June 8th was announced for Houston , that June 10th is probably out for GW.

Re: Great Woods 2017
Whether Frisco gets confirmed for June 10th or not there is no chance he'd play in Houston on June 8 then Great Woods on June 10 so June 10th is out for Great Woods without a doubt.
August 19th at Great Woods, I still say that is the date.

Re: Great Woods 2017
That date isn't good for me ... but again Jimmy doesn't schedule his tour around me. At least he didn't check with me on dates that work..LOL!!BottleofRum wrote:Whether Frisco gets confirmed for June 10th or not there is no chance he'd play in Houston on June 8 then Great Woods on June 10 so June 10th is out for Great Woods without a doubt.

Re: Great Woods 2017
That would work from the logistics viewpoint. The Sox are out of town for more than a week prior to July 8th (Saturday) and then they've got the entire All-Star Break for the load out.
I'd prefer Great Woods to Fenway just for the tailgating/parking.

That would definitely kill any tailgating. But, I've never been to a Buffett stadium show. Who knows, it may work.buddybear wrote:I just heard from a good source that Buffett is trying to book a show at Fenway in July before the Chicago show.

NKOTB is July 8 @ Fenway. Before that is Dead & Company on June 17. So, July 1-7 is open at Fenway.

Re: Great Woods 2017
I'd be surprised he did a concert at Fenway or anywhere so close to July 4th unless it is a "special event" type concert.
