7/3/15 Prior Lake, MN Mystic Lake Casino - Mystic Showroom

[Alinite27]

This was the venue that I had my 200th show at last tour! Definitely some fun memories there, and it's a really nice place with the golf course and the restaurant on the lower level!

I was glad to be there for your 200th show. Are you planning to come to this one? I have my ticket.

I'll be here...at one of the *first sold out shows* on the entire tour! Yes, I'm taking a lot of pride in this. Minnesota loves Al.

I went to his last show at Mystic Lake and I tried to figure out where he was going to be after the concert to sign autographs like he usually does. I asked around and the casino employees all said his bus was inaccessible and they didn't know, so I missed out. Does anyone know if/where he will be after the concert this year to sign autographs? I would love to finally get one and a picture from him. Thanks for the help!

I was at the last one too, and the busses were no where to be found. I think the best bet would be to wait around where the merch table is, and maybe we'll get invited back, or Al will come out. I would not count on this at all, it's an extreme long shot, and didn't happen last time...that I know of, but I had this happen in Green Bay in 2007, so ya never know.

Just got an email saying my tickets have been dispatched! Getting more and more excited! AreWeThereYet, we should probably say hi this time...I met you briefly at the book signing, but missed you at the last Prior Lake show, and the Thrilling Adventure Hour.

I'm not sure about non-casino venues, but in my extensive *cough*four concerts*cough* experience, there was a meet & greet at the bus after the two theater (non-casino) concerts, in Minneapolis & Des Moines, and there was no meet & greet at the bus at the casinos (Prior Lake and Milwaukee). If you are not actively spending money, casinos do not want you hanging around their property. And, I'm not sure, but maybe there were paid meet & greets at the casinos.

With this tour I looked at the shows in my region (I live in a suburb of St. Paul, MN) and couldn't find a non-casino show that fit my schedule. So I paid the big bucks for the VIP meet & greet at Mystic Lake Casino.

I remember you at the book signing, Yank27. We should definitely look for each other. I will probably be wearing the same tie-dye Twine Ball t-shirt that I'm wearing in my current avatar pic.
