But you know I have absolutely no desire to see Jimmy in London or Dublin or whatever. Those places are great but I have no need to see him there. It just doesn't work for me. Of course I'm also of the opinion that staying at a Margaritaville Resort in Pigeon Forge or some other non-tropical setting doesn't make sense. When I travel I like to actually partake of the local scene and what it has to offer, not what is superimposed from somewhere else.
BNers Dave and Carol, GW regulars, were at the Anguilla show and I remember that fantastic picture of them with the stage in the background.

I would actually love to see JB in a Euro or Aussie or other non-US show. Because those shows do seem, for the most part, to be much smaller venues. And I would love to see other cultural fandom in action. Maybe Rabz could weigh in, or some of the BNers who did go to Dublin, Paris, etc. How different is the experience outside the US?

Second this! Dublin was an awesome how - small venue, great sound & energy.

Given our current state of things...any venue, right now, that I can see Jimmy is MUST SEE!
Someday I will.

As of today, one barrier to us returning to visit the US has been removed.

Now we just need to deal with this damb plague.

There are three places at the top of my list simply because of the crazy long history Jimmy has at each (this makes up his top three all-time plaid locations):

Cincinnati, OH
Atlanta, GA
Mansfield, MA (Great Woods)

Then, I want to see him in the following “regular” venues specifically for one reason or another:

Noblesville, IN (sister lives in area)
Orange Beach, AL (looks awesome)
West Palm Beach, FL (gotta see Jimmy in Florida)

As for dream locations, it’s ZERO contest. We go to St. Barths a lot, and that would be a dream come true!
Past Concerts:
Saturday 6/28/2003 - East Troy, WI
Tuesday 4/17/2012 - Des Moines, IA
Saturday 7/25/2016 - Tinley Park, IL
Saturday 7/15/2017 - Chicago, IL (Wrigley Field)
Tuesday 5/22/2018 - Des Moines, IA
