This show may be slightly difficult to pull off. Wouldn't be surprised if I can schedule a few things around it, and make it, though.

My daughter and I will be there! It's our first Al concert! What are the chances he'll do a meet & greet afterward?

I'd think there would be a good chance. It's a theater show, which gives it a great chance depending on backstage obligations. One bad thing is the drive is 8 hours after this show to the next one, the next day. But, certainly even with that, since it's a theater show, they would still do it if there's time.

I'll be here, even though, I still haven't gotten a ticket. Some nice singles are left, though. Want to wait until I get to the box office to avoid the horrible fees.

Yeah, I went in 2007 before Al's concert in Fargo, ND. Then, after hugging the ball, I unraveled that sucker and rolled with it all the way down to the show. Made it just in time to be captive inside our chain-link fence at the racetrack, where the show was at.

I'm pretty sure Al will do a meet here. I doubt an 8 hour drive to the next show would be what would stop him from doing so...he did one in Duluth in 2007 and it was a 10-11 hour venture to the next show...and there was a LOT more people waiting in Duluth that I ever would have expected. It wasn't like Glenside by any means, but it was big.

This is where I met him for the first time back in 2004. Its a really nice and elegant theater and I cant wait to go back! I have row P, which sucks since I bought them right when they went on sale, but I got 4 of them, so that might be why...
