I'll be there. Don't know how I'll find you other nuts; it's a big place. Haven't been there since Buffett's last ever show there sometime in the 90's.
Poco headlined there on Aug. 1, 1979; 30 years and 2 days ago. Steve Forbert opened. I was there with my high school sweetheart, 6 weeks after I graduated. A rare, chilly night. Heart of the Night was getting a lot of airplay, and Paul joked about how this song was 'making us lots of money'. The encores were Good Feeling to Know, and Hoe Down. Rusty played lots of the Bear.
This time around, I hope Poco, the openers, play longer than it takes for the crowd to all file in.
