Good one, Fred! I'l have to tell my friend about the presale. Not only did I rope her into Al fandom, I've got her thinking about going to two shows in a row. Yay!

Dave, I hope you decide to go, because then I could finally say hello. I never got to at Dementia 2001 or AlCon III.
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Got a pair of tickets a few minutes ago. Section G Row 12 seats 4-5. Not bad.

Well, I wonder where the other 10 rows are. Looked like only 2 were available via VIP, so why would it go back 10 rows. Trying to decide if I want to wait for their on-sale date, or go ahead and get the pre-sale tickets. It might be better to wait on theirs, but considering THEY don't even have the concert CONFIRMED, I'm not sure.

Sorry for the double post.

Well, I already just took up the pre-sale.

I decided to sit in Row 13, as well, as it had an aisle seat, which gives more room throughout the show. Should be a nice view from back there. Since the whole boat is probably involved, there might be some different stuff to see from back then right up close. You can go on the Chesaning Showboat website, and look at seat views, as well. Looked good.

I might be going to this one, but the town this concert is in looks pretty small, we could only find 4 hotels.

There's nothing wrong with small towns. Personally, I prefer them.

I'm concidering this one, and Meadowbrook as well. Especially now that I know about the showboat, this one sounds real exciting. And it's only a 13 hour drive, so I could make it out there in one day...not like I'm asking for a ton of time off at work or anything, I could make this, and Meadowbrook in 3 days. Hmmm...decisions...

The lunch/dinner meeting at the malt shop sounds fun. :)
