Okay, we need to get a head count here…..
All those who will be attending the concert of the year in Asheville, NC, sign in!!!!!!!
Miss Virginia Former or, as Dreadlock Dave insists on calling her, MVF, will be there front and center!!!!
Karen and I will be there. Unlike last time we bought concert-only tickets. We’re driving in the day of the show and spending the following day @ Lake Lure. We’ll be fresh off of seeing Sir Paul the week before in Cincy and are stoked to get back to Biltmo’!
We’ll see ya there!

Just saying we can start the “barbs flyin’ ” once the Bruuuce.com crew gets started.
Then again, I’m sure you picked a cool person to bring on your date. They will be able to take anything we can dish out.
See you in Asheville,
JackieOh, trust me, any date that will even show UP with DD HAS to have the fortitude to take ALL that WE can dish out!!!! 😮
Info coming very soon on the soon-to-be legendary 2011 Biltmo’ Sho’ meet-up. I am still in the schemi…… Uh,manipulat……I mean planning stages.
Oh, this is going to be an event of epic proportions!
MVF
has anyone else noticed that biltmore says 8 pm start; everything else says 7pm. but then again the tickets say one time for the gates opening, & the website says something different. what time do you suggest arriving?
Wouldn’t miss it! Bringing friend to their first BRH show—oh, they are in for a “Special Night”. Working on my request.
The “official/unofficial” meetup will be from 5:00 – 7:00 at the front of the line to get into the show. I’ll have two bottles of Biltmo’s finest, so the first drink is on me!
Look for me at the front of the line. I will be labeled appropriately. 😆MVF
Miss Virginia FormerI’ll say hello and if they still line us up on the sunny side, retreat to the back of the line – if they are selling wine inside I can still outwalk the bottle babies!
Si—I’ve been to many shows and this was the 5th show I’ve attended at the Biltmore. It was just magical!!!! It took me forever to go to sleep that night!!!! I saw Bela and Bruce together in Louisville KY in 1996 and it was great to see them on stage together again. And I really needed a Noisemakers fix since it had been 18 months since my last show. From beginning to end—the fun never stopped. Great to meet some fellow fans from here on The Board.
Well, well, well….. Memories of Biltmo’ Sho’ 2011……..
**Standing in line behind a naked woman holding a baby for three hours in the hot sun (at least got a good T-shirt tan!)!
**Reuniting with my BFFs Monica and Jackie. Oh, the havoc we could have wreaked had we had more time!
**Introducing Monica and Abigail to the Blue Ridge Mountains!
**Introducing Princess Abigail to the Biltmo’ Mosh Pit!
**The pre-concert wine toast with 3 bottles of Biltmore Zin and 25 of my closest friends!
**Coming close to having the SECOND fight at a Hornsby concert with the little troll in the red shirt who insisted HE was first in line (he had Security on his side, so he won this one)!
**Perusing the new BH + NM T-shirts with Jackie (Treah)!
**Being physically molested by the tall, older guy in the ball cap who stood behind me for the whole concert beating about the head and shoulders with a towel…!
**Rather enjoying being molested by the tall, older guy in the ball cap!
**Sneaking a folding chair out of audience so I could sit down in line (from 4:00-7:00) only to have someone steal it from behind my back!
**Contributing to the delinquency of neophyte Hornsby fans by passing out paper & pens for requests, then putting those
requests on stage for same neophyte fans too scared to approach the stage themselves!**Getting to see the really imaginative requests from Monica and Jackie (not to mention my British flag with little cartoon black rats crawling all over it!) !
**Making a fool of myself looking for Dreadlock Dave BEFORE the concert (fashionably late, or hiding from me????
**Seeing Leslie and finding out she IS still alive (and kicking!)!
**Not only finding out who “hdbahn” is, but finding out he is actually an old and cherished friend! (how many brand-new friends do YOU have who gave you a front row ticket for your birthday…..love ya’!!)!
**Seeing April from Knoxville again (she is the THIRD craziest BRH fan I know!)
**Getting Bobby, JV, JT, and Sonny to sign my new shirt — Biltmo’ Sho’ 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2009, 2011. —- I’ll get you next year, Bruce and Doug!!!!
**Getting chased out of the concert venue by security (three times!) after the concert while I waited for Monica and Abigail to finish their backstage visit (without me :evil:)
**Chatting with Abigail’s boyfriend Keith Hornsby about his starting college at UNC Asheville this fall (could this mean more frequent visits by BRH during the next four years?????)
**And last, but not least, the big hug and kiss I got from my baby boy David. Honey, we GOT to quit meeting like this….and we need to do it more often!!! (I’ll send pics soon so we can see just HOW good a time we had!)
Face it, Monica. Wasn’t it worth the three hour wait in the Asheville bus station, then six hour layover in Knoxville, and who knows how long in Dallas????
Can’t wait until next year!!!!

**(if you saw me at the concert but I didn’t see you, tell me!!!)By the by……I FINALLY GOT A JOB TEACHING
I’ll be teaching four-year-olds at First Presbyterian Church starting next week (see, SOMEBODY still believes I have some moral turpitude left!!)MVF wrote:Well, well, well….. Memories of Biltmo’ Sho’ 2011……..

You talkin’ bout me or your son? I know you luv me! 😆
Should have a good pic of “Dreadlock Dave” and “MVF” on your camera! Why not share that one so everyone can see “beauty and the beast”! 😆
“Honey”?
Still havin’ a ball!

Lake Lanier, GAGreat Memories!
You know it was all worth it and I’d do it all again! Not so sure about the painstaking bus ride..working on transforming that into a rental car next time. But yes I would do it again!
I think Abigail would too!! She’s started back to school and is the biggest princess there!

Lake Lanier, GAWell, of course I love you. Why else would I tolerate you bringing a date to the one night a year I get to ” fraternize” with you? 👿
I mean, it got AWFULLY lonely all by myself there in Chinatown waiting in room 714 that was full of incense, with all that wine and all those candles. You know, it would have been such a freaky scene.
Look for me at the front of the line. I will be labeled appropriately. 😆
