Yay for the roll call johnnYYac- good work man!

I'm definitely +1 - and may even be +3.  I will check with my buddies and keep the roll call updated.

I'll keep modifying the above post.  Thanks for the updates.

Sorry for the repost but I had some ticket confusion.

I still have an extra pair for face value second row center mezzanine.  That's MEZZ row R seats 113 and 114.

Price is face plus TM charges.  Just received the tix a few days ago.

Let me know if you're interested.

peace

All,
I noticed some folks talking bout walking in downtown Bham. During the day no sweat but at night downtown Bham is not the best place to be walking anywhere. If you do chose to do so, walk with a buddy for sure. Not trying to scare anyone, but after hours walking in downtown is not preferable. Take a cab.
Hope everyone rawks it out at the show. I will be!

Adding you to the tally, Phil.  Thanks for the heads up.  I always try to find hotels within stumbling distance of concert venues.  Priceline did me wrong with the Medical Center Inn, making it appear closer than it is.  I suppose I can try for a cab, unless there's a group heading that way.  I also have a car, but hate to use it for 1.5 miles.  What's cheaper?  Parking near the theater or taking a cab?  I suppose I could just forgo heavy drinking if parking's cheaper.  Oh, well.  I'll just case the joint when I get there.  Thanks for the info.  Welcome to da forum.

Johnnyy,
Stumbling distance after a show is always prime for sure. I always park in the metered parking spots. There are metered parking spots within a block or two of the Theatre. Great thing about those is after 5pm or 6pm on weekdays, they are free. Now there are a few parking lots with an attendant, I think those are about $10 with a range of +/- $5 ha.
If you are gonna be drinking heavy and have a sober folk to drive, use the metered parking spots. If no DD, then I suggest the cab. It should only cost ya bout the same as parking your car in one of the pay lots.
-Phil
Also, J. Clyde in 5 points is the place to go if ya want a laid back atmosphere and great beer choices.

I know a few people interested if you've still got them available.

This is copied from another thread.  I decided to put the 4th row ticket up for auction on eBay, with 100% of the final price going to the American Red Cross.  The original posting is below, with links to a seating chart and the eBay listing.  Thanks for your ideas and feedback.

I was bummed when I pulled Row W for this, my second MMJ show.  It is an aisle seat and in an intimate venue. Still, I wanted something special.  My first show had me way the fuck back.  So I scored a pair of 4th row seats, in front of Yim (assuming he still favors that side of the stage).  

Check out this seating chart.  



I hope someone from this forum ends up standing next to me having the time of their life.  Every penny from the winning bid goes to the American Red Cross.

Well, the Red Cross only gets $81, but some lucky duck gets a great seat next to me!  Less than three weeks!
