Wow, Knoxville?  Never thought I'd see the day.  Waits so rarely tours anywhere.  Count me there if I can get a ticket.

Nowhere near me, of course.  :-/

Not even close to Michigan.  I remember the last time he came around, I definitely wasn't a Tom Waits fan at that point therefore I was not in attendance.  Bummer.

I'm attempting to get tickets to Houston, Dallas, Tulsa, St. Louis, Columbus, Knoxville and Jacksonville.  Wish me luck.

You have to tell us if you get St Louis Tickets. Drinks will be had!

Hey DB, another reason to come to St Louis at the end of June.  ;)

Haha! You're not going to give up on this one, are you?  ;)
God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.

Rumor has it that Mr. Waits will be playing the superjam at Bonnaroo with Les Claypool and Kirk Hammet.  :o

Alarms are set.  Websites bookmarked.  Phone numbers programmed in the speed dial.  My fingers are crossed, and my pennies are rolled.  

Tomorrow will find me on the computer/phone in excess of five hours as I make six attempts to get a ticket to see my favourite musician in six different locations, all way too far from my home.  I can't wait.

I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

My Visa is already crying.  ;D

4/4 - mj, you better ready St. Louis, especially the fifth row centre at the Fox Theatre!  Houston, let's not have any problems.

This is one of the best days of my life..

That's a fucking great seat. The Fox is awesome. [size=9](seen Phantom 3 times, Rent twice, and Wicked once there....do ask. Husbandly duties)[/size]

I'll need details on when you're here, staying, etc. etc.

Hey Hermo, where should we take him to do some damage to the liver?

Hey no shame in the husbandly duties!  I've wanted to see Wicked and the Phantom for ages.    

The show is on June 26th (a Thursday), but I've not got any more details as of yet.  The next show (Tulsa) is on the 28th, so as of now I'd say I'll be spending a bit more time in St. Louis than the other locations.  

I'll be celebrating tonight (and maybe tomorrow  ;)), but this long weekend will be spend hammering out some plans.  All I know is that I'm quitting my job and will be setting out on a week I can only dream about.  

Dallas ticket acquired!  That's 5/5 for those keeping track at home.  All that's left is Tulsa...
