Just curious - where did you hear this from?

It's too expensive for me to fly out....$218 roundtrip. If it was cheaper and I wasn't starting school at the end of the month, I would have considered making the trek--

ARRGH!!!

Why does it have to be right after my 2 shows? Crap.

Once again, I will miss this. There would be no way for me to have the funds to go to this show so soon after the other 2. Aren't tickets like $2500 each?

With my last donation to the AHI - I asked them to let me know when the next benefit concert would be. They called me.

No, the GP tix are the same as any other concert. The $2500 ones are for the meet and greet package only.

It is expensive - especially if you have to fly out. I've never been to one.

I went to the last two AHI benefits and you can buy regular priced tickets. They did have packages (I thought they were only $1000) where there was a meet and greet with photos. I know some on this board could probably give better info on what you got for the premium packages. It's only money Jamie!

Plus, Southwest has $39 tickets each way right now from San Diego and LA.

Wow, have they gone up? I thought it was $1000.

After the last one I said that if she ever did another, I'd forego local shows and purchase a donor ticket. Can't afford it this close to the supposed show date this time though. But I do love that she does these... hopefully there's at least one more on the horizon

It might still just be $1000. I'm not sure. I just had $2500 in my head for some reason. Sorry guys.

If I ever go, it'll be for the meet-and-greet package. Maybe next year.
Thanks for the Southwest info though!!

That seems like a reasonable round trip price for your neck of the woods - but yeah, the timing stinks. And why is it on a Thursday?? Why not the weekend? Especially since it may end up being the last show of the tour? You'd think they schedule it on a more feasible day...depending on who the special guests are, I may blow it off this year.
