Atlanta Tom Petty Concert Roll Call!

GiniLeaE · #1 09-20-2006, 10:04 PM

Ok...who's going - If you don't mind me asking????

I am making the 4-5 hour drive (depending on traffic/route I take) for

Stevie and was wondering if anyone wanted to meet up before or after with us??

We are staying downtown at the Westin Peachtree Plaza about 4-5 miles from the venue (umm...****hole or last time I saw Stevie there that's what Lakewood/Hifi Buys Amphitheater was!) so we can visit the Georgia Aquarium for the 3rd time and the new and improved Coca-Cola Museum.

I wanna go

It just feels so weird and sad knowing that I will be sitting at home, while Stevie is only an hour away. Just doesn't seem right.
Gini, what other route is there besides 16 a.k.a. the most boring drive on the face of the planet!
If I had someone to go with, I'd settle for lawn so I could bring my son.
Oh well, have fun.

Only an hour away! You must go. Tix are still available. I am driving 3 hours to be there, (or being driven ha ha). I have no idea where my seats are b/c I got that special ticket package.

I know, but my son is only 6 months and if I can't get a good seat then I don't want to go. I just can bring myself to sit on the lawn.
This really makes me so sad.
If Damian wasn't out of town then I'd go, this really hurts.

I know what you mean. I am due in March, and thinking if FM tours this spring I will be missing most of my usual shows.

Yup...same ole', same ole'...how exciting! At least I have accrued tons of Starwood points at my fave hotel - the Westin Peachtree is FAB! The last time I was at the Sundial restaurant, my little 12 year old brother and I sat at a table next to Ashley Tisdale,

Zac Efron, Monique Coleman and Vanessa Mae Hudgens from the Disney Channel movie High School Musical and I thought he would just DIE! After I saw how cute and LEGAL (HEHE! He's 18!

That is evil of me...I know!) he was, I was smitten!

I bet your tix rock!

Once you find out...please let me know and maybe we can meet up! OR maybe we could print out some cool LEDGE Stevie ID/button/laminate to wear???

TwistedGypsy · #8 09-21-2006, 10:44 PM

Listening to the show all I can think about is how to get there!!!
I'm going CRAZYYYYYY!

EDIT: After all that himming and hahing (i guess thats how you spell it) I'm GOING!!!!!!
Mom's going to babysit and I'm not telling Damian.

Stevie_Buck · #9 09-22-2006, 08:25 AM

I'll be there. I don't have tickets yet, but I'm praying I get something at least better than lawn when I get there. *crosses fingers*

We'll be heading out of the upstate SC around 2 to catch dinner before the show... traffic permitting, that is. =o]

Stevie_Buck · #10 09-22-2006, 08:26 AM

By the way--would it be wise to buy off of a scalper? Never tried... only heard horror stories. Any advice?

TwistedGypsy · #11 09-22-2006, 08:28 AM

Yeah I need a ticket too. I don't know whether to try the box office when I get there or head up to Publix.

There were still some okay seats with ticketmaster, nothing lower level, but not lawn. There are some better ones on craigslist, but they're still asking more than I'm willing to pay. It's insane. I got front row in Columbus for $150 and now they're asking that just for like second level. Crazy. lol

TwistedGypsy · #13 09-22-2006, 01:14 PM

It's coming down to the wire and I don't know what to do.
I'm scared to try a scalper and then drive over an hour and try my hand at whats left. But I'm not paying $50 to sit 10 rows up from the lawn.

Stevie, You wreck me baby. You break me in two....
