Yes, I believe our tickets for Jake are at will call. Luc took care of them.

We get in Wednesday afternoon and leave later Monday morning. We're taking the train. It's so convenient, we live within walking distance to the stations in Mainz.

We should exchange cell numbers when it gets closer. I guess I need to find out how/if my vodaphone will work in France. This'll be our first longer trip since we moved here in May.

How are the crowds for the European concerts? Nissan's pretty out there, but Raleigh was wild. I have photos of Raleigh this year on meetthephlockers.com if anyone is interested.

I'm so excited, I can hardly wait. Paris and Jimmy too :D :D

Hi Cheryl and welcome to BN!!!! :D :D

Can't help with the info on the crowds for Buffett in Paris as this will be our first time also. We were in Raleigh this year too!! What a great time!!! We will also be seeing Jake and have our tickets ordered. Can't wait for that show either, Jake is amazing!!!!

Looking forward to meeting you and can't wait!!!!!!

With this years concert in Paris being a different venue, its difficult to say what the crowd will be like. The first year was a mixture of europeans (mostly us british) along with a few who had made the journey from the US. Last year there was more of what you would expect at a Buffett concert, complete with the appropriate attire! Less locals in my opinion.

Now this year is a bigger venue and with the economic climate being what it is, I wouldnt be surprised if less people made the long trip. We also got to see Jimmy in London so that may be enough for some. All of this may mean that the numbers are made up with more locals again - does anyone know if the tickets are sold out?

As for Jake on the thursday. I wouldnt be surprised if that is a lot more relaxed. We need to find out what time the doors open and maybe meet up in the bar opposite. I doubt it will be a concert where we have to camp out all day to be first in!

Not sure what others who have been there for the last two years think???

Yup, difficult to call this one Roxy. All I know is that we won't be there and, as far as I know, nor will my American buddies who usually do the all day line (cos they came to London).

Hope it is fab anyway and you're all certain to have a great time.

3 of us are going to this show after an 8 day road trip around Europe to Normandy, A-d*m, and Munich for O-fest.
Should be a cool time. Last time I checked the show was sold out.
Does anyone know if we pick up tickets bought online thru Margaritaville link at the venue itself?
I can't wait to see all the Parrotheads invade the streets of Paris.
