Re: Who's going to Chicago, June 28, 2014?

OK peeps...it's about a month to the big day! Anyone know what the plans are for the tailgate? What time is Tinley opening the lot? I did find this on the Live Nation page for the venue, and it gave me a chuckle; Tailgating is not permitted on venue property due to a local municipal ordinance. The o...

Re: Hawaii - I need a vacation from whatever it is that I do

We are going back to Hawaii in May for our 4th trip (sounds weird to say that...) Most of our trips we have stayed on Oahu (our favorite island), but did stay for a few nights on the Big Island on our last trip. On Oahu; For awesome shrimp, check out Mackey's shrimp truck on the North Shore (on the ...

Re: A POSITIVE experience at the Chicago show!!!

That was the point of my post...to provide a little balance and show that although the day turned to crap from some, for a lot of people the day was a great day.

I'm glad you had a positive experience in Chicago, pretty cool that you got to eat with Doyle!

A POSITIVE experience at the Chicago show!!!

Due to some remarkable foresight on the part of my good lady we sold our lawn seats and got 2 seats in 207... This was without a doubt my favorite Jimmy show..the actual venue was awesome, Mishka was great, the whole day was just a treat. I know some people seem to have had a less than great experie...

Re: Chicago venue riles up the Parrotheads

This is only the second concert at this venue...the first was last night. I think we need to give the venue a big of a break as they work out the kinks and deal with the laws and regulations they need to adhere to. The area where the concert is is one of the safest areas in Chicago so wandering arou...
