Who Will See / Not See Lindsey Live in 2011?

[daniellaaarisen]

If he's anywhere north of San Francicso, I'm there.

If I see no other show next year, I'll see Lindsey's. I've made excuses for far too long.

[night-rider]

Oh my goodness, definitely! I'm a student at Berklee College of Music, and I was looking on the photo thread and there was a picture from '08 when he came here...unfortunately I wasn't at school! I hope he comes back...both of the small recital halls (David Friend and the Red Room at 939) have great sound and are so intimate...and the guitar players (all 10,000 it seems ) would love it!

I flew over from the Netherlands for 4 lindsey-GoS-shows in oct. '08. It was worth every friggin penny and a lot more. But that was a lifetime fullfilling experience, I won't do that again next year. BTW, you don't need "good seats" for a Lindseyshow. All the seats in those small venues are awesome, and the costs of a ticket are almost laughable compared to FM.

Every american who does NOT go to a Lindseyshow is out of his or her mind. There are no excuses, if you like music, this is what you need to see.

Can't see him doing any dates in Europe, so probably not. I would go, though, if he was anywhere in the UK. Maybe he'll do the 'Later' show with Jools Holland on BBC.

Jools had Neil Diamond, Paul McCartney and Elvis Costello (and Sheryl Crow) on the other week - IN THE SAME SHOW - and Alice Cooper was in the audience, so it's definitely the sort of thing LB could do to just push his album a wee bit, and might be the nearest we get to an actual gig (everybody plays live on that show, so LB would kill, I'm sure ...).

But basically, both LB and SN don't really seem to raise their sights beyond North America, for touring. Mind you, Stevie might be persuaded by 'all four Beatles rolled into one', Dave!

Same here. I went in '08 and would love to go again but I can't afford it again. If he comes to Europe/UK then I'll do my best to hit as many shows as I can afford.

Even if I have to sell all of my possessions. Even if I have to miss a week of school. Even if it's in Cleveland again. I am definitely going.

If the buzz is any good, and he's playing somewhere convenient on a weekend night, I'd probably travel within a reasonable distance. I guess the only thing holding me back are those gosh dang Lindsey fans- they're so annoying.

If he does play on the Island he better not, for the love of all things holy, play at that theater in Westbury. I saw a Led Zeppelin cover band there and it was rinky dink, the acoustics were horrible, and the place seemed to be on it's last leg. I'd rather see him at some club than there!

Isn't it called the North Fork Theatre, or something like that? I've never been there, but I remember seeing adverts for it in the Village Voice back when it was the Westbury Music Fair. Linda Ronstadt played there not too long ago, and I will regret to my dying day that I didn't go see her (since I hear that her health has deteriorated ). Does it still have a stage "in the round" that revolves slowly throughout the show? I once saw a concert like this (Yes), and I thought it was a hoot, if not stomach-churning.

[TrueFaith77]

I trust he'll make it to NYC. And I wouldn't miss that show for the world. If he goes to Milwaukee, I'll see that too and bring my mom!

[#1LiddyBuckFan]

I will go to as many as I can! I love seeing Fleetwood Mac live but Lindsey's shows are so great! I will be very excited if he decides to go out on the road!!

Wait...WHAT?!

France's too far away.

[Sahara]

I'll do everything I possibly can to be there. I'd dearly love a UK/Europe tour but if I can make it to the States, I will.
I'm unbearably excited

I think that's exactly what it's called now.
Lindsey DID play it last time round (maybe the second leg of his tour? I can't quite remember). It wasn't that bad a venue. They actually put up curtains or barriers or something, if I recall correctly, to make it smaller for him (obviously, not a sell-out performance). So, it was more of a half-round. This was the one where he smashed his guitar (the only lowlight for me but...I think a lot of people got a kick out of it).
Uh...oh, yeah. I don't mind the theater. I hate traveling to Long Island. It's such a pain in the butt for me, with connections to trains and all that jazz that, most of the time, it's easier to go to another state.
But, yeah. If he's on the east coast, I'll be there.

[sodascouts]

Hell yes, even if I have to do another one of my marathon drives.
