You're welcome DeeJay There's a few more Dennis dates that should be on his site soon, well hopefully soon.

I'm hoping to be in Rockford for the show. I'm glad it's on a Saturday. I'm working on changing a few plans already!!

I would love to see another "Lost Treasures" show!!! I'm sure there will be a few of "us" there

So Dee Jay, got any tips you can share about the venue ? never been there myself.

Yes, do tell. I'm only an hour away from Rockford, and I loved the last Lost Treasures show I was at. Hoping to see this one as well.

Cooooooooooool Sadie We can camp out for 8 hours before the show in the front row!! LOL

Yes, I need more information on the venue too, thanks in advance

Classic, the concert van will probably be going to this one too.

I will not be camping out for 8 hours! Not a chance! And mercifully (no offense Classic) I will somehow miss out on wearing styrofoam! How one can be proud of wearing cheese...strange world we live in.

Looking forward to going to both shows (hopefully)

Sadie,

'tis a badge of Honor..........12 world championships for the Green and Gold you know !

I personally dont own one though, I have too many Packer hats and only one head !!!

I don't (grumble,grumble,grumble) dispute those titles. And hats I can understand...styrofoam chesse wedges...those...not so much. Cuz nothing instills fear more than seeing those sad things on people's heads.

Must be from living behind that cheddar curtain for so long

And if that wasn't bad enough, there are these devious fans out there that prey on innocent posters going by the name of ek88, easily ensnaring said ek88 into a sucker bet, exploiting ek88's tragic flaw of radically overestimating the prowess of his sadly diminished favorite football team.

I have only gone to the "On The Waterfront" once so I can't tell you much except just make sure to get your tickets and "Waterfront" buttons early...

Classic Says:

you both brought a smile to my face this morning ! I 'm a little worried about this year though, half the team seems to want their contracts re-negotiated, and the salary cap that makes that pretty tough to do....and Sadie, I kind of understand where you are coming from....that Super Bowl Shuffle video was mightly obnoxiious in the mid 80's !!!!!

what's a waterfront button, and why would I want one ??

Admission to the "Waterfront" festival is by button which is $12 and it covers the entire weekend....One day passes at the gate will be $14...

Hey...we know if we wait long enough...well...well...something good will come our way. And while I confess to being caught up in the Superbowl hype, I hear you very well. At least we didn't continue to create and tape songs to hype ourselves (the fact that we haven't exactly had a team able to generate that much excitement has absolutely nothing to do with it ). Styrofoam cheese wedges...a whole nuther matter

The Chicago Bears - LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

GO PACKERS!!!!

I still can't believe that Dennis signed my Cheesehead Hat - LOL He wouldn't wear it!!

So far Mr. Suite and I are planning to go to the Rockford show. Tickets go on sale next Saturday so I'm hoping to get good seats. Here are the prices:

ON SALE SAT JULY 16:

TICKET PRICES: Gold Seats first 2 rows = $50 advance
Reserved seats = $22.50 advance
General Admission = $12 advance children 8 and under are free

Suite, did you get your tickets???? I got mine...And mine are in the Dennis: The Golden Wonka Ticket section...

DeeJayStyx, I have my tickets too, they're in The Golden Wonka Ticket section - LOL I figured what the heck, you only live once, might as well get the best I'm leaving Mr. Suite at home with the kids - LOL I'll be bringing a friend. DeeJay, I should probably get my button, right? I don't think admission is included in the ticket price.

Classic, are you going? Did you get your tickets?

Anyone else going to Rockford??? I'm SO excited!! Let's see, I can't wait to hear "Suite Madame Blue" and "Queen of Spades"!!!

GO PACKERS GO!!!!!!

Well, Suite. So much for "I might go...I don't know....."
