West Coast gigs

Postby studiogirl » Fri Apr 19, 2019 1:20 pm

All you who want to see Poco west of the Rockies...here's your chance!

Jun 14 Las Vegas NV
Jul 10 Carson City NV
Aug 11 Costa Mesa CA (Orange County Fair)
Aug 24 Plymouth CA (wine country!)
Sep 02 Salem OR (also wine country!)

Except for the just announced OC Fair, the others are all listed on the tour page.

I'll be at the August 24 show in Plymouth, along with Vickie & Doug Poore. And maybe some other northern California 'Nuts!

A ways away, but I'm looking forward to it!!

Thanks for the heads up, studiogirl. I think we'll make a trip to the Oregon State Fair, visit some relatives along the way. Poco with PPLeague and Firefall, quite the lineup. Trying to find out what the front sections seating is like. Photos, old maybe, show aluminum benches with no back rests. That's not gonna work.

Glad you saw the post, Jeff. Check out stadium seat cushions with a back. I have two and they are great when only bench seating is available.

Oregon State Fair Seating

Postby Jiff » Mon Apr 22, 2019 5:33 pm

Yeah, good idea. I got one of those as a Christmas gift. Found out, yes, no backrests in the closer sections ($50/ea), but the cheap seats (yellow and green) have backrests. Go figure. Front four rows are chairs. Got a couple of those ($75/ ea + fees). My wife's back has been bothering her. Wonder how many 60 yo plus fans will enjoy backless seats for a three band show.

Glad you'll be comfy so you can actually ENJOY the show!! By the time people reach 60, I would hope they've learned to figure this stuff out! I always want to know how far I have to walk, what I'll have to carry, and what kind of seats are there. And I drag everything with me if I can't find out about the seats. I guess that means I'm truly an old person (aka wise!!)
:roll: :lol:

Salem gig - 9/2/2019

How was Plymouth?
Leaving for Salem now. "All fired up". I'm the tall guy, white beard, tan Poco cap.
For some reason I can't post with my smartphone.

Poco, Firefall, PPLeague.
Back from Oregon. Well worth the trip. Just wish the sets were longer.
