UNCLE JIMMY!!

Saturday, June 26th 2010 my favorite artist will be playing at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre.
JIMMY BUFFETT!
Good thing I'm signed up for his newsletters at Margaritaville.com. Otherwise I would have missed when the tickets went on sale. I knew he was coming (comes here about every year). Just didn't know when the tickets went on sale. Turned out it was yesterday at 10:00am.

Now I saw him 2 years ago at the same venue but only had lawn seats. Not that enjoyable. This year I vowed I would get pavilion seating or forego seeing him this year. What luck! I got 2 tickets in the pavilion! They were only $133.00 each. The wife was not "entirely" pleased but, hey! I have a birthday coming up real soon.

Now Jimmy is also playing on 5/20 at The Woodlands, TX. Just down the street from where my sister lives. Show is sold out but they have tickets on StubHub. So just for the fun of it I looked to see if I could get a ticket and maybe visit sis and the nieces. There were several for sale but the best one was a front row center seat that had the asking price of a mere $1412.00. Add in airfare, etc. and that would be about a $2000.00 nite of debauchery!

Couldn't get the wife to buy off on that one! LOL.
