ParticipantI got mine—-have you got yours????
Biltmo’ Sho’ ticket, I mean. Last one was an absolute blast ( and Bruce even mentioned my request on stage by name!!!!). I am already crafting my request(s) for this year.
Do you think there will be a fight THIS year??? 😆

Will be there of course!!
Working on getting our tickets and bus tickets…can’t wait!!
Crafting of the requests sounds like fun, save some fun for me!
Don’t know about fights, but I better hold the keys this year LOL 😆

Well, look, I KNOW Monica and I won’t be the ONLY SiBs or BiBs at the sho’. Not that I’m bribing or anything, but I’ll buy a drink for every board member that shows up and finds me at the front of the line. In fact, I’ll buy TWO drinks if you actually recognize me and ask for a dance
“There’s Mr. DE in the corner, dancin’ with the Miss Virginia Former”
Oh, and of course, Monica will be the official “Keeper of the Keys” 🙄

ParticipantRe: I know it’s a little early, but..Who’s up for da’ Biltmo
As stated before… As Queen of da’ Biltmo’,
I am taking it upon myself to set up the meet-up there. Since I cannot even begin to afford to a room at The Inn, I can’t set up a meet-up there like Dreadlock Dave did last time. So I will be at the head of the concert line no later that 3:00 (probably earlier) with my quilt, chair, pillows, libations, and various other treats for all my SiBs and BiBs. Remember, I still promise a drink to each die-hard from the board that will come up there and keep me company. And, of course, I have become legendary for my Biltmore Vineyard Wine in a sippy cup.
I plan to bring goodies for all the faithful. I might even bring my Andy Harley book of Bruce-inspired poetry (“Adored by your dad, I shall always support you; And I want you to be what you want to be;” and “Keeping up my strong self confidence, You can bet all you got I’ll get your attention soon; Just give me nothing but one chance to show you, What it’s like to date and adore a lovable buffoon.”).
I might even bring some of my Teddy bears that you can get the band to sign, or whimsical Bruce jewelry to show your support/fanaticism/stalking ability.
Oh, this is going to be an event to remember, and not just because I lost my car keys like last time!!!!
Hey, who’s up for backstage passes

Having said that,I must admit I’ve never met a male chauvanist at a Bruce concert. I’ve attended a pre-show meetup which included the “Czar of Blabbery” in attendence;he was the perfect Southern gentleman.
On another occaision, I shared a cab with 2 male Bruce fans who were having trouble getting a taxi. I NEVER share my cab,as a matter of safety,but these guys were so polite (and stranded Bruce fans),I had to make the offer. I ended up making 2 new friends.
During the intermission at the most recent Charlotte,NC,show, a young man noticed I was keeping a setlist & asked if I would send him a copy. He was very polite,even calling me ma’am.
I know that rude male fans exist,but I have yet to meet one personally.

I’m up for that! Hoping to get Abigail a picture with Bruce. This is going to be her “Special Night” since she got her Outstanding Music award in school this year. I don’t know yet who’s more excited me or her.
Just keep in mind I won’t be doing alot…if any drinking of the Wine (Sauce as Bruce puts it)…because of little Princess in hand…but don’t mind if others partake! Hence why I have been designated Keeper of the Keys this year!

And here I thought you wanted to be the keeper of the keys because you didn’t want to be in the Biltmore parking lot at 2:00 in the morning hobnobbing with Security
Remember, the crisis of today is the joke of tomorrow! 😆

So glad we can all be friends and laugh about the good and bad times..I wouldn’t have traded that night for anything even the craziness after the show.
Well…this chick is out of here for a couple of weeks…of to take Little Miss Abigail and Prince Junior to their Grandfathers in Michigan via train again this summer(“justa passing through”)..gotta love that song! ( Could be good trivia..how many songs has Bruce song that deal with trains…help me out here..I need to make a new Youtube video.) Shall return to the fun in a couple of weeks….keep me posted on the Biltmore happenings!!

Now less than 2 months away from Biltmo’, baby! We’re staying up near Lake Lure this time, so we’ll be at Biltmo’ later than last time. I’m sure we’ll spot some familiar faces when we arrive and we’ll probably catch up with everyone by the stage before the show!
So, David Day, does this mean you’re in for Biltmo’? I remember last time Bruce did Biltmore was after he played Atlanta and now he’s doing it in reverse. Still hope to see you there, man!
You know who else we haven’t heard from yet? SMP! Where ya at, girl? Working on your costume for the show? Gonna be a bit warm there in August. You may want to cut down on the burlap! 😆
At any rate, we’re geared up and may even have the little molo3’s with us this year. I guess you’ll just have to show up to find out!!

Hey Molo3 and gang
My Biltmore burlap is on backorder (say that 3 times fast) so I won’t be attending the Aug show. I’m not a bluegrass fan so didn’t want to spend that kind of money to have to split my time with Bruce. Besides, he’s coming here at the end of July (yippee for me) so I’ll get to see him then!! He’ll be playing only 15 minutes from my house and even though Bela will also be there, I can’t miss seeing Bruce and band since he’ll be so close!!
HOpefully I’ll catch you all on the flip side.

tell Karen I said hello.

Well, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed, but I certainly understand the logic in your decision. It’s a big difference between a 5 hour drive and a 5 hour flight! I knew you had a Denver show coming your way, so we’ll be counting on you to “fill in the details” for us!
Enjoy the Denver show!

Did you know that Victor and I are comin’ to terrorize’ you? In fact…..We are staying at your place! 😆 Yes! We’re comin’ to your place, eat your food and drink your beer! 😆
Oh……Don’t forget to have your refrig full, clean linens, french milled soaps in the bath and the temp set on about 50 degress! It’s goin’ to be a Hot House! 😆

Well, I knew Victor was coming because he got the first invite but I didn’t realize he was bringing a penpal.
Since you’re coming now, I guess I really need to make sure my burlap is order. Hey, I say the more the MARYier.
I’m only 15 minutes from the venue so swing on by. I’ll have the shed doors open in the backyard to welcome you. I know, I’m all heart. While you have southern hospitality, we have mtn hospitality. In other words, you’re sleeping outdoors.SMP

Sleeping outdoors? That’s not a problem at all! Just have the 660 count sheets, down pillows, candles and the “Maryier” mix on the Veranda! We’ll be just fine! I know that your bushes probably need to be “watered” as well! 😆
Oh…..Don’t forget to bring the beer cooler out too! We may also need about a 100 rolls of TP to roll your yard! 😆

DAvid, and you wonder why Vic got on the “list” and you didn’t. 😆 Ya, I got your 660 count sheets alright along with the FRench soaps. oh wait, those would be Polish soaps since I’m 137% Polish.
The shed has french-style doors so you’ll be livin’ it up. Come on by…..shed doors are always open.

Well, now, I’d like to get in on the festivities! It’s too late to rescind your invite to Denver you gave us at Biltmore last time, mary! The Denver show falls on my birthday and what better gift than to be flown out (got that jet fixed yet?) and given the royal treatment by the ever-hospitable, SMP! You won’t have to worry about my accomodations, though, I’ve been watching Man vs. Wild and think I can survive at least one night out in the mountains!

ParticipantRe: I know it’s a little early, but..Who’s up for da’ Biltmo
Gee, you don’t forget a thing, now do you?? Since it’s your b’day, then you just HAVE to come out for the Denver show. I could even jump out of your b’day cake if Karen doesn’t mind. 😯 And of course the invite still stands; you and Karen can actually stay in the guest bdrm.
That damn jet of mine…..still working on the mechanics of it. 😡 It’s amazing how long things take when you want your jet fixed.SMP

Nope, I remember absolutely everything, at least I think I do! 😆 🙄 Funny, Karen was over the shoulder when I read your response and said she’d actually pay you to see you jump out of the cake! 😯 Your move! 😈
If I make the trip out there I’m still electing to stay outdoors with the other fellas’. How else are we gonna trap and bbq supper for you? 😆 Hey, it’s the least we can do to say thanks for your, uh, hospitality! Karen said she won’t be scared to sleep in the house because you told her you watch all of your guests sleep! And you thought I was bad!
We’ll take you up on that offer someday, mary, and probably when you’re least prepared!
Until then…
