Hi Sue and everyone

It was great meeting you all. We had a perfect evening and Alan was MUCH better than in Sweden. The fans were also much better, singing, shouting and dancing. Here is some pictures. You can alos see our videos at my Youtube site. Search for Billstromtrading on Youtube and you find it...

We WILL se you and Alan many more times... He is the best Country singer around...

As we were further away this time the pictures are not that good. Need to buy a better camera...

Congratulations for your Meet & Greet. It is awesome... Hope you enjoy it as we did. We tried to get my daughters in to the Meet & Greet but they would not let them. Talk to them and they will maybe help you.

We still have 2 tickets for sale. Section 102 in the front row besides us. 951-905-8035 as we will not use the computer too much before the concert.

See you all soon...

Tomorrow (3rd of October) we will arrive in St. Augustine. We have spent 2 days in the car because we had to drive back from southern Georgia to Nashville…

You maybe have read my thread about the Eskilstuna concert in Sweden the 14th of August. We had a Meet & Greet with Alan and we got that because I helped the Swedish people who were making the advertising for the concert. I helped them to get people that like old US cars to the concert. Alan is not that well known in Sweden and they needed that…

That people also helped me to get contact with Alan’s staff who take care of his cars. We got a call yesterday telling us that we could come and see the cars. We had 7 hours back to Nashville and we turned at once. Today we saw his estate and cars. We only saw the house from the outside but the garage from the inside… He has some nice cars… It was a dream for us to be there. Being a big Alan Jackson fan and a car guy...

We meet one of Alan’s people taking care of his estate and looked at the cars for 2 hours. Also saw the shop where they restore the cars. Took a lot of pictures but we only shows these because I think Alan need his privacy.

What a honeymoon…. We are in heaven

See you in St. Augustine

We are in Nashville now. Have seen the Country Music Hall of Fame. It was great. Loved the video they have on the 3rd floor. When they changed from Johnny Cash and "Hurt" to Alan Jackson and "Where were you" I had wet eyes.

Can't wait for Sunday...

We are now in Branson, MO. Came to the hotel late as we visited friends before this. I have some cars to inspect at 57 Heaven for a customer back home in Sweden that he want to buy. Did not know that this was a Country town... We are to tired to go out and look but we will be back some other time.

Need to look at those cars tomorrow and then head for Nashville and our friends outside the town. Maybe a visit at Graceland if Sabrina wants. I have been there before but I would like to go again.

We plan to go and see the "Country Music Hall of Fame" in Nashville this time. Anyone know if they have anything about Alan there?

We will go to the King Fish Grill the 3rd of October and hope to meet some of you guys. Plan to be there at 5-6 PM. See you there...

Jerrie, thank you for your nice words. I was listening to “Where were you” from CMT: s site when I read your words. It hit me hard… I do like that song sooo much. Hope to see Alan perform this song.

Tomorrow we head back to Chicago and our rental. Drive to our friends outside Kansas City. Then we will drive to Nashville and be there a couple of days before arriving in St. Augustine.

We have not decided yet where to go the evening before the concert. The Kingfish Grill seems nice but maybe too nice. We are rednecks that not are into the “nice” places too much. "Smile"

Maybe a place where it is easy to meet all on this board that are coming and just have a beer or a little snack. A bar or something like that.

See you soon.

Pontus & Sabrina

Today’s sunset here on Maui.

Finally a internet connection that alows me to upload pictures to my server.

We have been in Honolulu 3 days and today we came to Maui. What a paradise... Our hotel is by the sea and the sea is warm...

We asked a woman from Colorado to take a picture of us with the Swedish flag with "Sabrina & Pontus loves AJ" written on. I also included some other pictures. Even if this is great with snorkling and sun bathing place I really looking forward to the concert and our 2 day Nashville stay.

Hi Alan Jackson Fans

Now we are packing our bags for our little USA tripp. The Swedish flag is bought and Sabrina have written "Sabrina & Pontus "heart" AJ" on the flag.

We shall have a pictures here of us and the flag from Waikiki Beach on Thursday. Leaving home tomorrow morning our time (6 hours before EST.)

We have 4 tickets but only need 2.... Our 2 friends have decided not to join us this time.  Would like some new AJ friends to join us? (Section 102, Row A, Seats 117-120) Need some money for the tickets but most of all a nice time with Alan Jackson fans.

Send me an email or call me. Contact info on my web site.

See you in St. Augustine

Our AJ heart start to tick faster now....

Sabrina loves the sun and the ocean. It will maybe be a sun bath at the beach. Will also take a tour in the city.

Just thinking about the concert and seeing AJ again get my heart to pump fast...

We have tickets for section 102, row A, in the middle. We have only the pit between us and Alan.

Looking forward to this.

Thanks Jeri for the suggestions with apparel at the concert. We will bring a flag and write something about Sweden, Alan and us. We shall buy it soon and write on it. Take a picture with us and the flag then post it here...

Plans for the night before.

Kingfish are one good suggestion. Any more???

Plans for our honey moon in Hawaii and USA.

We will fly to Hawaii the 15-16th of September. Start here in Sweden the 15th, fly to Chicago, stay at a hotel there one night and then continue to Hawaii the 16th. See Pearl Harbor and Waikiki Beach and more? Fly to Maui the 19th and stay at the west side until the 23rd when we fly back to the mainland and Chicago. Have not looked to close about what to see or do on Maui, any suggestions?

Drive down to south of Kansas City and see our friends there for a couple of days. Then we will drive all the way to Florida. Se our friends in Tennessee and of course Nashville (my 3rd time). Then our friends in Georgia before we arrive the 3rd of October in St. Augustine and our hotel.

What to do before the concert with Alan will be much up to you guys. As you know more about what happens before an AJ concert then we do...

After the concert we will drive on clouds down to our friends in Florida before flying back to Sweden the 8th of October from Miami.

For some of you this maybe seems like a long drive but for us it is not. Second time I were in the USA I drove 10724 miles during 3 weeks and 2 days. Coast to coast 2 times. Saw Yellowstone, Redwood Forest, Golden Gate, drove Highway 1 between San Francisco and Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon, Old Tucson, Tombstone, The Alamo, New Orleans, Memphis, Graceland, Nashville, Washington DC incl. Whitehouse, Manhattan, Ground Zero, The Statue of Liberty and last the Niagara Falls.

Today I have been to 41 states, have also seen Mount Rushmore, been up in Sears Tower, Nascar races in Kansas City, stopped by the Police in Texas for speeding but when he saw a crazy Swede being happy for being pulled over and wanting to take pictures of him and his car on the Interstate he told me to drive a bit calmer (too much paperwork I think for 2 miles faster than the others) he let me go...

My wife, Sabrina have been to 31 states so far.

I really "BURN" for this AJ thing and our trips to the USA...

I, Pontus and my wife, Sabrina have started to think about accessories to have with us or wear at the concert. Maybe the Swedish flag with our names written on.

Someone who have a suggestion about something else?

We call it “tifo” here in Sweden when you have special clothes or accessories on a sports event. We want to make this concert special also…

The night before we hope to see some of you on an event or country & western party…
