I'm interested in that if I can get the time off work...highly doubt I'll be able to, but if by some small tiny shred of luck I can, count me in. I'm up in Minnesota by Lake Superior, but I'd make the trip to the Chicago area in a heartbeat...shoot, after University Park, I'll do anything...that was a LONG drive.fred27 @ Jan 31 2008, 08:02 PM wrote: hey i got this idea, if he does like 3 shows in 3 days, like a fri-sun within driving distance from chgo ( ya like that matters to me) a few of us should rent a school bus to tour chase, all we have to pay is milage if i drive
But one can hope, right?KnottyEmily @ Feb 1 2008, 01:09 PM wrote: Do HD-DVD's play on regular players? If so, that would be the way to go. Otherwise the only people that could play it would mostly be people who own PS3's (if Al went with Blu-Ray).
i emailed jim and he said that there would be a 2008 tourweirdojace @ Jan 13 2008, 08:50 PM wrote: At this point, isn't it basically confirmed by Jim West that it's gonna happen?
I dunno if any real changes in the setlist are necessary... this tour is pretty much perfect. Cell Phones/Albuquerque wins. Maybe this time Al could vary the shows up more (like Bob?WDTAHTM). For example he could do Close But No Cigar some shows and then replace it with Virus Alert at others.
I guess any thing's possible, but two things immediately stand out that make me skeptical. According to the AZ State Fair website, the actual fair isn't until October and November, which is far outside the July and August dates that Al confirmed. On top of that Al played at the AZ State Fair last year on October 16. Perhaps the blogger is looking at last year's schedule thinking it's for this year?Orthography Enthusiast @ Feb 1 2008, 11:09 PM wrote: I came across this tantalizing snippet in a blog. Any chance there might be something to it?
Very possible. And on further reflection, a July or August outdoor concert in Phoenix would probably be a ghastly experience (maybe not so much for the audience, it's after dark and they get to sit more-or-less stil, but certainly for the performers).Elvis @ Feb 2 2008, 04:31 PM wrote: Perhaps the blogger is looking at last year's schedule thinking it's for this year?
