Well, let's hope she does.   It was really bad.  I have a friend who attended with his wife.  They were in the 2nd row (bought the tix at presale).  No way he was in the 2nd row.  He had a ton of people standing in front of him the whole night and one guy was huge so he had to stand to the side to see.  

As much as I love y'all, I bought this FC membership, so I could get tour news and ticket info.  My membership is up in September.  If the presale ticket locations are going to be so disappointing, why bother?  I probably won't renew.

I like to stand and dance - I try to stand out of the way if I can but it's a concert not church.  You shouldn't have to sit if the spirit moves you.

Nice review!  I saw him do the Bluegrass album in October at Carnegie Hall.  The show was great.

Did you stick around to see Jim Lauderdale perform?  He's pretty wonderful, too.

One of these days I'll get to Merlfest. 

No, I attended the Bluegrass show in NYC in October.   When he does the Bluegrass shows, he's supported by a completely different group of musicians, not the Strayhorns.   Scott Coney is the only member of the Strayhorns who tours with the Bluegrass group.   They also advertised the NYC show as a "Bluegrass show".

AJ will be doing the Bluegrass album at Merlfest in North Carolina.  I'd go there if you live anywhere near NC.  The Bluegrass concert is fabulous.  You won't regret attending.

If the presale starts at 9am, that's when the link will become active to buy the tix.  I usually log on a few minutes before the time they go on sale.

I asked someone who works for him and they said he did a TV show for the BBC some years ago but he never did any concerts in England. 

My friend, John, loves AJ.  He's a new fan and lives in London.  Has AJ ever toured there?  If so, any idea when? 
He's hoping he'll tour there sometime in the future.

Thanks.

There are also a bunch of photos you can access with the review.  (click under the review where it says "see slide show").

Can't wait to see them over the summer! Yay!

See you there, Susi.   Thanks, Jeri!   

Perl - I hope you got on with no problems.  Let us know how you made out.

Success!  2nd Row center.  Woo Hoo!

Hi, Perl.  I'm buying tix, too.   I don't think we can get in until 10:00 sharp.  Right now, go to the ticket link on the AJ site, go down to the Gulford show.   If you click on it, it's not active yet.  I think it's because it still has 5 minutes before the sale starts.

If this sale screws up again for me like it did last time, I'm gonna have a meltdown.

Yes, I already emailed her.   I followed directions.  This is the first time this has happened to me.

It didn't ask me for a passcode.  I thought that maybe that's why it was blocking me from buying.  Thank God my friend was home and she was able to log on.   I've never had this problem before.    I went to the fanclub ticket page, linked over to Mohegan Sun and selected 2 tickets.  It kept bringing me back to the previous page.

Not a happy camper.
