OMIGOD!!!!!! MATT AND TALL PAUL...........!!!!!!!!!!! How lucky can we get? This is so cool, we gonna have ffffuuuuuuunnnnnnnnn at the pre-party and pre-concert too. I gotta stay sober enough to remember this!!! If I remember, you got a "wrist band" and you could buy two drinks only with each band (alcohol). So the thing is, get looped before you get into the venue, because you sure ain't gonna overdrink inside. Unless you're one of those who straps baggies of alcohol onto your body to smuggle some in. But that's kinda sad isn't it? THREE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nah, you can buy as many beers as you want with a single wristband in the venue. they don't mark 'em or anything. i think the two drink wristband was referring to a previous pre-party that you, say, pay $10 to get in and get two free drinks with the wristband. at least thats something i've experienced in the past.

phins!!!

I must have gotten ahold of a lot of wristbands, cuz I don't remember them or much else after St. Somewhere played!!!

citcat · Post by **citcat** » April 16, 2003 1:32 pm

Well, AW-RITE for no wrist band stuff!! Maybe I hallucinated that! S&J, are Matt and Paul gonna perform together or is this a split/tandem/oneaftertheother gig? Hey, capnrick, if I bring an orange and white lei will you wear it? HAHAHA!!????

you guys think we'll have any problems getting a hotel sat. around downtown? we bought tix from the exchange and a parking pass came with them! so we're gonna drive to and from the show and go out downtown afterwards so we wanna be close for a cheap cab ride. starting to worry about finding a room!

S&J · Post by **S&J** » April 16, 2003 1:58 pm

Matt and Paul are playing together with some other pholks. It seems they've formed a new band! They have a web site started.

I'll warn ya now that when you hear Michael "Crawdaddy" Crawley play harmonica, you're gonna miss Fingers! He's playing at the pre-party at Holiday Inn @ The Crossings and at the pre-concert show at AmSouth.

You shouldn't have any trouble getting a hotel downtown. The only things I know of that will draw people to Nashville are the concert and the LSU/Vanderbilt baseball series. However, there should only be a couple thousand LSU fans travelling to the series. Plus, the concert is about 140 miles outside of Nashville.

awe, shoot we can be at starwood in 15 mins. from downtown.

Excitement is building!!!! I took a vacation day today just to get all my stuph together! Leaving first thing in the morning!

I am not much of a packer. I am just going to through a bunch of stuff in a bag a be gone.

citcat · Post by **citcat** » April 17, 2003 12:57 pm

Holy moley we leave in the morning too!! I'm taking a break from decorating the van, I have window paint from fingertips to toes (I'm a messy artist!!) I feel like a 4 year old getting ready to go to Disneyworld! WOOHOO....I can't believe I've been waiting for this since Feb. and it's already here.

S&J · Post by **S&J** » April 17, 2003 2:02 pm

There is no car decorating going on here in Knoxville. It's been pouring rain all day. We'll just have to do without them this year.

I wish I could just throw stuph in a bag and go, but I'm waaaaay to organized for that!! Nope, I have to plan for months, make lists of all kinds and then spend a day packing it up just right. The bad part is unpacking it all when the weekend is over. Yuck!

I'm heading out early on Saturday to catch any partyers that I may find. I'm getting pumped! Look out for a grey buick park avenue -- land yacht w/ duct tape holding the front together! It'll just be two of us, but we want some pholks to party with! See you there!
