Meanwhile Washington State gets 3 dates

Hey, now!
I, obviously, am thrilled about the three dates. One of them is clearly an "Oregon substitute"...it is quite near Oregon (which does not have a seperate show), which I do not believe to have an appropriate outdoor venue (which the group may very well perfer all around and certainly to the Portland indoor Rose Garden). The Mac and Stevie are always awesome about coming up here (perhaps we have the residence of Stevie's uncle in Tacoma to thank)...the Pacific Northwest is very often completely neglected on sometimes huge tours by huge artists even. I don't know why, since we have major cities here...perhaps the gray tone 3/4 of the year has an influence.
It is also much more difficult to drive to shows in multiple states here, as opposed to the north east. For instance, it takes 5 hours just to drive across WA State (east to west), and 4 hours to drive it north to south.
