I'm there! Only approx. 14 hours drive from my house...anybody here think I'm crazy for driving this far for a show I've already seen 9 times? (Besides Fred & Jeremy) This is more of an endurance contest. If you make it to the finish, you get an Al concert...good enough for me. :D

If my friends who are going with me to the Showboat want to go to this one, then I'll be there... because It's a little of a money issue for tickets for them and I don't drive nor do I have my own car.

Anyone know how much tickets are usually for this one?

I just looked at my ticket from the show I saw there in 2003, and it cost $34.50. I hope you get to go. I'd like to meet you.

I've decided I'm going to come to this show too. I will take some unpaid time from work. As long as the show starts at 8 pm, do we know what time it has started in the past?? I'm afraid that if it starts at 7 or so I may not be able to pull it off. but maybe an hour or two early from work unpaid I can do if I say I'm going to a dr's appt. LOL

Sweet, it'll be good to see ya wandering around at a show again Kaffy...we crossed paths a few times last year, but for whatever reason or another, we never said hi. Maybe we will this time. Same with you Fred. lol. And I'm sure I'll be meeting you Patti...so many forum people. Any word on Marty or Steve? :P

Then of coarse I'll get to sit through another months worth of new tour stories from Jeremy. Ha...July is gonna be fun. :D

Well, I've seen Al three times before this at Meadowbrook, and the show started at 8 pm each time. I'm guessing they'll stick with tradition. So glad you're coming Kaffy! Jared, I'm sure we'll see each other. Marty has been known to come to Meadowbrook. My friend Dawn and I saw him at the box office during the PH tour, so, who knows?
