31  General Category / Live Show and Tour Discussion / Re: What a Day Yesterday Was! on: October 16, 2014, 11:25:16 am
My friend and I (also from IL) traveled down to Nville on Tues. before the 'big day!'
We went thru his exhibit twice... the morning of the concert and also on Sat. where I
took a ton of photos!   


Tell us again where his daddy's radio was in the exhibit area, please.
I have a pic from another time but am not sure I will see it in my mannny pics from this
visit.



We enjoyed a bit of visit with Leah, Dot, Bette and Allison and Anita...some with their
hubs intow! Wink   My friend and I had decided on the spur of the moment to drive down
the Natchez Trace the afternoon of the show. We had a plan and it worked out well,
and reached Jackson Falls which is 40 miles from the Nashville end of the Trace.
I am on fb as Mar Jenn if anyone wants to friend me there and see a few pics of
AJ from the AWEsome show. 2 1/2 hrs of his singing and speaking of stories behind
the songs was outtathisworld!
I met Roger and had my pic taken with him after the show. He had his own loyal
following who yelled their love and perked him up during the show a few times.  Cheesy

Met Ryan before the show and again after the show but didn't bother him for a pic.
Now he can put a face with my fb name.

Opry member Jan Howard was in the 2nd row of Sec 2 and mingled with the fans after
the show at the stage area. She asked if we wanted a pic so of course I was thrilled.

Did anyone here get one of the tee shirts Alan threw to the crowd?
He threw one up to the lower balcony and a woman caught it but nearly fell over the
railing. We all gasped and he did, too. He sd, 'Please don't fall over a railing for a tee shirt!'
He opted out of singing anything bluegrass or gospel.  Of course we all were disappointed,
but we have the music in our own CD collections.

Leah provided a limo to the ACME and back.  My friend and I arrived at the Hall around 4:20
and phoned her and she sent the limo for us.  We had about 45 mins to visit with the AJ fans
but opted out of eating in a rush.  She cranked up the AJ tunes and we heard Chattahoochee and
Summertime Blues was blaring as we arrived.  My IL friend opted out as she had her ticket in
Will Call and had to be there at 5 pm. My one Nville friend who also had a ticket by me was having
a great time with the limo ride.

We had the email about the special posters and other merch being available, so we all scooted outta
the ACME in time to get there for the 5:30 sales.  We had to have our show tix scanned before
we could shop, so we missed out on the red carpet and group pic by the limo, tho.  Once the tix
were scanned we could not leave.

I need to take a pic of the poster..or maybe they will have any leftovers in the fc shop?  Of course,
after next week's show.  There were still some left after the show I heard.

I met Dot for the first time, and Maggie Phelps! and Tammy Cox!  I met Bette again and Allison
and Leah and Anita for the first time.

What a night!  I hope he gets his allergies under control and can match the length of the first show
on the second night!  He left us on a high that we are still experiencing!

I answered Hope's private message.
If she does not want it...
it is Sec 2 Row K seating
My friend had a problem ordering and got 1 and then 1...so
that is why she has an extra one.

I loved AJ's saying 'Alrighty then' before his set at the
Grand Opening!  ha ha
I will also be in Nville for his Oct 8th show...traveling with my friend who
I have attended most of the Fan Fair trips with..and sometimes other
times of the year.
Wish we all could wear name tags in case we are in the same places. Wink
We will be in town for a few days this trip, too.

I truly think tickets costing more than $100 are highway robbery.
Alan's fan base demographic is made up of people who are aging
afterall.
Who needs all those fancy VIP aspects?  I just want a show and
a ticket to it.
41  General Category / Live Show and Tour Discussion / Re: Hershey / Jimmy Buffet portion Live on Internet on: September 08, 2014, 04:35:53 pm
yep, Alan quickly gets on his bus and flies out after the shows.
42  General Category / Live Show and Tour Discussion / Re: George Strait's Final Concert On CMT/CD on: September 08, 2014, 04:34:35 pm
George Strait has a record contract for 5 more albums.
He is not done...  He said this after an awards show in an
interview recently.  He is not giving up his bus...just touring
regularly.

Alan fan, I'm glad to know you Mostly enjoyed your experience....
I am wondering what is happening in this world with so much
rudeness and lack of empathy for people who have their
limitations! It is music ...and such a healer.

Anymore, I am looking for indoor concerts in theaters with
nice comfortable theater seating where people behave and have
it all crossed. too,  that someday he can play one of the larger ones
near us. Willie, Loretta, Alison, George J,  and Don Williams
and many more have played in recent years and sold it out each time.

44  General Category / Live Show and Tour Discussion / Setlist Requests for Hall of Fame concerts on: September 08, 2014, 04:16:20 pm
I wonder if the fan club would pass along some song requests from the fan club members,,,to Alan and the Strayhorns?

If they would, I'd love to hear www.memory again 'live'...  That would be so Divine!
